A moist mas been put IN, and mill TO
work the dump is among the earliest
possibilities.
THE DALTON,
an old property, which has been worked
in plodding way for many years, by j.
t. Schenk, has at last rewarded its owner,
a strike rich in high grade native silver
having been lately encountered; and it
may be classed hereafter as one OF the best
mines in the whole district.
THE BUTTERFIELD.
The Butterfeld Mining company has
spent many thousands of dollars during
the present year in developing group of
claims in the Black Jack country. A tun
mel, which when completed viii be at
least 3 eco feet long. will tap the Queen,
one of its richest of group of properties,
at depth that will pay heavily and in
crease the output OF the camp heavily.
THE SAMPSON,
in the Lead Mine gulch, was purchased
by George Arthur Rice, A. E. Hyde,
John Beck and others eighteen months
ago Since the new company obtained
control hundreds of tons of ore have been
shipped, and q great deal of development
work done, with indications growing
more favorable every day.
THE YOSEMITE NO. 2,
another OF the old mines of the district,
that has produced its hundreds of thous-
ands in years gone by and produces as
regularly as the days roll by, is under the
uperlntendency OF Ed Egan. 1t has at
tanned depth OF nearly 200 feet and IS
one of the best mines in the great west.
Its output has been enormous and the end
has not by any means been reached. The
Yosemite is fully equipped in every par
ticuiar. Under the same management,
virtually, is the Yosemite No. 1, which
is shipping steadily, 4 small force only
being worked.
THE BADGER
is located just below the famous Brook
Ign, and there is a general belief that it
is on the same vein. 1t is equipped with
a small steam hosting works, and has
shipped great deal of ore in years gone
by. The shipments this year have been
very heavy and have fully justified the
faith OF its owner.
THE LUCKY BOY,
owned by the millionaire miner, L. e.
Holden, is now under lease to H. G.
Gregerson, and is steadily shipping. AS
a rule, the ores run mnch higher than
the average of Bingham.
THE ROUGH AND READY
is owned by John Herman, and is under
lease to Mike Gibbons. 1t has been a
wonderful producer in years past, and
fully keeps up It's previous reputation.
1t mas produced some very fine concen-
tIating ore, and a man who erects a
small mil near by will make a fortune.
THE SILVER ZONE AND GRABALL,
once owned by David Kay and others,
have been absorbed by the Old Telegraph
company. No work of moment was done
during the year.
HOLDEN SILVER GAUNTLET
has come to the front during 1892. In
years past the mine has produced mil
lions, and there is every indication that
its former brilliant reputation Will be re-
established. The Gauntlet and June
Blossom are both leased TO and being
operated by Mike Kiopenstiue, and that
he will soon be clipping coupons there
can be no doubt.
THE TIEWAUKEE,
another property that in the past has pro-
duced its millions, is now under lease to
Peter johnson, and has made most ex-
cellent showing during the year. The
prospects have not been brighter for years
pasJ than they are now.
THE HIGHLAND
is one OF the biggest and most reliable
mines in the camp, is being worked by
four leasers, and is sending down con-
satisfactory to the owners, Messrs. Frank
Hoffman, Henry Denhalter and others.
THE NORTH LAST CHANCE
has developed remarkable bodies of ore,
and has made d remarkable record in
many ways for the year 1892. The devel-
opment work has also been pushed to it's
LIMIT mi I-a,ot
night and day. New rolls were lately
put in.
A cyanide mill Is being put in at
THE STEWART NO. 2,
and great results, in so far as the reduc-
ton of low grade gold ores go, are ex-
pected. it is claimed that greater Dor
tion of the low grade gold ores of Carr
Fork can be reduced at a handsome profit
by this process, and If this be so, it means
very much for Bingham, as there are
thousands of tons OF such ores row lying
on the dumps OF the various mines that
win be converted into double eagles in
very short time.
THE PEABODY,
in quiet way-so quiet that it is i'm
possible to obtain even an intimation of
the amount-has sent out ore by the car
loads during almost the entire year. The
Peabody is one Of the big shippers of the
past with great future before it.
III The Petro's owners have done great
amount of development work In 1892, and
have shipped, on an average, 20 tons of
first class ore a month, besides enough
concentrating ore to keep a mill running.
THE DIXON,
to use the language of an enthusiastic
miner, is a daisy. \ new steam host,
costing SO, GOO, has lately been added,
and development work pushed. The |
close proximity of the Dixon to the con
centrator saves q great deal OF money,
usually expended in a haul down the |
canyon.
THE MONITOR,
which has been under bond and lease to |
Campbell, Pitts & Pritchard, viii soon |
be purchased by that firm. A mill on the |
