By IAN DONALDSON

, Ganadian Press Staff Writer

HALIFAX (CP)—Prime Minis- ter E. A. Manson said Wednesday the Nova Scotia mines depart- Ment will make a complete sur- , vey of the quality and quantity Pe con reserves at Springhill, - Mr. Manson said two drilling rigs will begin to bore the rich Cumberiami County coal fields in about two weeks.

: Meanwhile, the mines depart- Ment is amassing all available geological information on coal in the area. The data, some which dates back to 1912, has been col- lected by the mines department and Dominion Steel and Coal Corporation, former springhill ¢oal operators.

Mr. Manson said it will be used im appraising the coal fields, which have produced millions of tons since they were opened in! the- 19th century. : LAST MINE CLOSED

Springhill’s last mine. the 14.000foot. iieep No. 2 colliery, was closed by, Dosco for safety reasons after an underground up- heaval Oct. 23 claimed 75 miners. The mine, operated by a Dosco subsidiary, Cumberland Railway and Coal Company, produced '‘

about 450,000 tons of coal a year.

Mine manager George Calder said Wednesday only a small maintenance crew is working in the shaft now.

Mr. Manson said he hopes the survey will reveal the best places for a possible new mine being considered by an imiependent Cumberland County group and “two or three others.”

Representatives of the four- man group met with Mr. Manson Monday. They have decided te postpone active exploration work until completion of the survey.
