Hon. JAS. WHITE, who has been black
smithing for the Atlanta company, form
erly known as the Monarch, Informs us
that the framework for the Lconora mill
was up when he left Atlanta, and that part
OF the machinery was on the ground. The
mill is lO-stamp. The Leonora is situat.
ed halfway between the town Of Atlanta
and the Atlanta mine. 1t is valuable
mine but the ore is not high grade. There
is a very large body of it that pays to mill
and it is the immense quantity of ore that
makes the property valuable. George
Iimms mine, north OF the Atlanta, is turn.
ing out good rock A crushing will be
made in the Buffalo mill this fall. The
Last Chance, between the Atlanta and Buff
falo, is also good mine. The ledge car.
lries gold, and the ore is free milling. The
company commenced sinking a shaft a
short time ago to connect with the tunnel
al the depth of between two hundred and
three hundred feet A force is also at work
in the slopes and extracting very good ore.
The Last Chance mill commenced crush
ing in July, and is still pounding away.
The company made a very satisfactory
cleanup short time ago. The Atlanta
company is working twenty. five or thirty
men in and around the mine, which is
turning out high grade ore, carrying both
gold and silver. This mine is developed
to the depth of four hundred feet. The
Atlanta company will probably not put
up mill before next year. They have
their ore crushed in the Buffalo company's
mill, a 20 stamp. The Buffalo company
suspended operations in their mine some.
time ago, but will soon start up again.
This is one of the best mines of the Ter
ritory, and has turned out an immense
amount of bullion
