Mohave County miner., 1891-07-04

Cerba,. The vein is very strong anu
perfect tissue, being argentiierons gaiena
ore. The mine has been worked occas-
ionally since It's discovery. Over two
thousand tons OF lead ore have been
shipped to Benson, Pueblo aud Caliior-
MIA from thiB mine, with an average re-
turn OF 35 per cert lead, 20 ounces in
silver and $s in gold per ton. The mine
is now being worked by Hon. Fostor ;.
Dennis, OF Kingman, who 10 running
tunnel 70 strike the vein below the old
workings.
The tunnnel is being run by those two
sterling miners, l.. +. Collins and Jos.
w. Morgan. They have had pretty
hard time OF it, az the rock is tough. but
when Patsey and Joe 80 after thing it
will have 10 have wings to escape. They
expect 10 complete the tunnel inside of
sixty days, when we hope they will be
rewarded as they should be for their per
severance and grit. This vein ID in
places over six feet in width and shows
ore the entire length OF the claim.
Judge Murphy is the present owner of
the property.
THE NEW LONDON MINE
This claim is situated about 800 feet
west Of the Champion mine, and is
owned by Mr.. John Mulligan. This
claim vas worked extensively few
years ago. and to considerable depth,
the deepest workings being about $50
feet, when work was discontinued owing
to the want OF proper machinery to keep
out the water.
The vein, and grade and character OF
the ore is about the same as the Cham
pion mine, and many think il part OF
the Champion vein. Several thousand
tons Of ore was shipped from this mine,
and to-day it could be made a first-elass
producer If In the hands Of capitalists.
THE UNION NINE.
This great tissue is situate between
Cerbat and Todd Basin. II is an im-
mense lead mine carrying gold and silver,
and is owned by Tubman L. Ayers. The
only work lone or developments made on
the mine are two or three open cuts upon
the groupings, But such work as has
been done demonstrates one fact that
great smelling mine lies here awaiting
the "0pen Sesame" OF capital. Such
work as has been done only shows the
great extent Of the yein--in width--ior
for the lode can be traced for miles.
We consider the Union one OF the great
mines OF Mobaye country.
When will the day come when real
capitalists will appear among US. We
are getting along in years and the Tin
horn" is about the only capitalists we see
in "close communion" with the "man
with the elephant" For, indeed, the
miner with large mine on his hands,
has costly elephant. And yet, the
Comstock or the Homestake were ele.
plants to the owners until real capital
placed its shoulder to the wheel, and 10
the golden treasure was unearthed, and
millions we're added the wealth of the
nation.
THE ORC PLATA MINE.
This claim is situated in Todd Basin
and belongs to Henry G. Wilson OF Red
Bluffs California. This property has
always paid when intelligently worked.
1t is ranked az gold mine, although il
carries considerable silver. This claim
has been worked off and on for sixteen
years. The ore is a sulphurit and
highly impregnated with iron and ether
minerals, and is essentially smelling
ore assaying about $75 in gold. This
claim has been worked extensively and |
tnnnels hundreds OF feet are run on the |
vein, the lowest workings and levels !,
being over 2So feet in depth, A new |
hoist is now about being put up, and
from what we gnow Of this proprrty, it
will be n the future what It has been in
the past, one Of the best gold producing
mines in Mohave county.
This claim from the best information
we can obtain has already produced over
5000, 900 in gold, and yet, it would be
considered virgin ground IN many of the
old mining camps.
