This is one of the Oldest locations in
Bristol district. A tunnel has been run
in on the vein 225 feet. in ore all the way
and when We say, in ore, we mean that
the top and bottom and sides are all ore
mo wall or country rock being visible
anywhere, and one cross-cut of twenty
seven feet, also showing ore. No stop
ing has been done; but in doing this
amount of work, over $50 tons of ore
have been taking out. Five hundred
tons of this have been smelted at the
works of the National Mining Company,
yielding $50 to the ton in silver, and
IL to Is per cent. of lead. There are now
about $50 tons of high grade ore on the
dump. The ore is a carbonate of lead.
In running the tunnel cave was struck
about 20 feet from the mouth, from two
to five feet high, which extended in,
large enough for a man to crawl through,
over one hundred feet, greatly facilitat-
ing the progress of driving the work.
Mr.. Roe, the superintendent, and a
large owner in the mine. who gives us the
above details, says he has Just resumed
work with force of twelve men, which
force he expects to shortly increase to
20 or 30-as fast, in fact, as they can be
proftably employed in the mine.

Bristol District.
SULTAN NINE.

SULTAN MINE.
The Sultan mine is located near the
foot of what is known as the Blue Hill,
about five miles from the smelling fur
mace of the National Mining Company.
The outcroppings of the ledge, which are
very large, and contain heavy masses of
mineral, run in northerly and southerly
course, dipping to the northeast. 1t
was discovered in 1871, by G. w. Roe
den, and two shafts were sunk on it
about twelve feet deep. On commencing
to sink, limestone, the country rock at
that point, was encountered; but ut a
depth of six feet body of ore was struck
fully eight feet in width. Work was
ago, and an incline sunk on the ledge
between sixty and seventy feet, ore all
the way--in the bottom it is all ore-the
hanging wall has been followed down,
but there is no foot wall in sight, so the
width of the vein is yet unknown. The
character of the ores is varied-both
free milling ores and heavy galena and
carbonates. There are 100 tons of ore
on the dump. 1t also maintains the repu-
tation of Bristol district as the district
par excellence, of beautiful specimens.
Mr.. Sultan showed US ore delicately
frosted with crystals, tinted with all the
colors Of the rainbow, that was really
exquisite. Eleven assays gave an aver.
of $3.50 to the ton. Working four men
and expect to increase the force at an
early day. Principal owners Jacobs and
Sultan and c. W. Roeden. To Mr..
Louis Sultan, we are indebted for the
foregoing facts.
CHIEFTAIN.
This mine is situated about seven
miles this side Of Bristol, and owned by
Messrs. Smith, Brown and Stewart
Discovered in 1871; prospected little
then laid idle till last fall, when its own
ers went vigorously to work to develor
it. 1t has been opened by q shaft ant
tunnel about eighteen feet, and shows 9
good eight inches Of galena ore, assayine
on an average $l40 to the ton. Country
rock limestone. There are some sixty
tons of ore on the dump. Mr.. Ordway

THE SAN JUAN MINES.

As not few Piochers are interested in
this San Juan country, we give all the
reliable information We can obtain from
that quarter. Following is from the
Denver Tribune:
The immense and apparently inexhaus-
tible mineral resources OF the San Juan
District are as yet but little known TO the
masses, The papers of Southern Colo
RADIO have written up the districts fire.
quently and quite fully, and the Tribune
has given detailed descriptions of few
of the more prominent mines, but there
are hundreds OF rich discoveries Of which
not a line has been written, owing part-
ally to the fact that the discoveries and
owners have paid more attention to de-
yeloping their property than to furnish
ing correspondents with facts relating
thereto. We have been put in possess
ion of interesting facts regarding two Of
the hitherto almost unheard of mines
of that district, the Mother Comstock
and Swansea, OF which a brief descrip-
ton will be given.
The Mother Comstock was discovered
in June, 1872, by an old miner named
Newcomb, who at one time worked in
the famous Comstock lode in Nevada.
When he saw the vein he said it sur
passed the latter in richness, and that it
should be called the Mother Comstock
1t is located about quarter of mile
from the Little Giant, on the same level.
The vein Of quartz is forty feet wide, and
the vein of solid mineral therein is from
eight TO fifteen feet in width. One assay
made at the United States Mint here
gave 81, 4S4 in silver per ton. The lead
has been traced for a distance of two
miles and a half, showing it to be tru,
fssure. Every foot of this has been To-
Gated. The main claim belongs to Messrs
Ketchum, Weitzel and Wallace, who have
run tunnel into it distance of thirty
feet, and pronounced the deposits as un
limited in value.
The Green Mountain is another o.
those immense deposits of silver fol
which the district is noted. 1t is located
half mile east of the Mother Comstock
and has vein of solid mineral from foul
to seven feet wide, with grey copper pen
etrating every part of it. Many assays
have been made, which gave $4,000 PEI
ton in silver.
The Swansea was discovered in Au
gust, 1872, by DR.. L. F. Cameron, tn,
discoversr OF the great Moose mine, il
Mount Lincoln district. 1t is located
two miles west of the Little Giant, a
about the same elevation, and is owne,
by Ketchum and Cook. The vein i
smaller than the two mentioned above
the vein of quartz being four feet wide
and that of solid mineral from two an
one.half to three feet in width. Thi
one assays from $500 to $4,000 per tor
The mineral is composed OF sulphurets c
silver and grey copper.
Splendid water-power of abundant CT
pacity for mining machinery, is close Q
hand, and large forests surround th
mines on the Las Animas river. At th
site Of old Animas city, first settled upo
by Baker and his party, in 1862, are lare
beds of coal of excellent quality an
great extent, which can be hastil
worked. ..-
