At the bottom OF this WlnZe dfiIC leaas 10

chamber from which large quantity OF
ore has been stopped. This stope extends

from this portion OF the mine was nlgh

the thousands, but the average would prob
ably reach S35 to $40 per ton. There nave

many places punches of lime ar o2nd;
but thus far they have been bat u neles,
ore being found on each side OF the lime.
The ore i'll the Chainman group Is similar
to that in the Aultman and Joanna mines
possibly not so free as that in the last
named mine. The reduction of this ore has
all been with the ordinary stamp mill
using copper plates for saving he gold
per cent of the gold, while at the beginning
but 40 per cent was saved. considerable
portion Of the gold that is not free is found
in a white carbonate Of lead, and another
portion is found in heavy black iron,
either of which can be readily saved by
concentration. The cyanide process hs
been used upon the tailings at the Chain
man mill, The tailings carrying some free
gold, and gold alloyed with the carbonate
of lead, makes the process fall short of be-
ing a success
The Chairman ledge passes through the
entire length OF the Chairman mine to the
west end Of the location and continue on
its westward course through the Turkey
and mines. These mines are but little
prospected, and nothing is known Of their
value except that they are on the eX
tension of the chairman aud Aultman lode
The same can be said OF the Southern Cross
mine. There is some more work done upon
the Southern Cross. Samples taken from
one of the shafts assayed $27 per ton. Be-
tween the Southern Cross and the Chain
man mines lies the
THE GOLDEN REVENUE.
The property of Messrs. Simpon, Campton,
Harris and others, There is shaft and
other workings upon the mine that expose
large vein OF ore that assays SIS to the ton
in sold The deepest workings are about
117 feet where the ore is found at the bot
tom; but very little prospecting has been
done West of the Golden Revenue and
ELY MINE,
The property of General Thomas aud f.
NJ Clark. The workings consist of a tun-
mel 10 feet long, at the end of which shaft
is sunk in the ledge, which is about six feet
wide and assays So per ton in gold. The
ledge can be traced the entire length of
the niue. South of the Ely and to the
western end lies
THE MOHAWK,
TIE property of Messrs Thomas, Clark,
Ne6er d Heusser. There is q shaft 30 fees
deep and an open cut upon the mine in
"iiieh ore has been developed that assays
5fe pr ton in gold. West of the chairman
Grolp lies the
ROB ROY MINE,
The property Of Captain Carpenter, Hip
and others The claim has been develop
~ by a series Of tunnels in which some
Tery good ore has been found. Owing to
the presence OF water near the surface the
ore is not free, but is in sulphur9te form
the owners have expended at least five
thousand dollars on the property. Adjoin-
in6 the Rob Roy on the west is
THE Los ANGELES,
The property of VIM Watson, Leach Bros.
and others. There is shaft and tunnel
upon tne mine on which the owners have
done considerable work and exposed some
ore. 4 general sample taken assayed So per
ed at tine Choinman mill yielded 81 in gold.
South of the Rob Roy niue lies
CHIEF or THE HILL,
Owned by Samuel Park inson and others
Tae owners have done some work on the
mine. and developed some ore.
ADJOINING the Los Angeles mine on the
west is the SaXton, the property of Gov
ernor Mckinley and others. At this point
the ledge is very strong Crop
pings are found high above Che surface in
many places over the mines. The prospect
is covered by Z. S. patent and has remain
ed idle for many years. A sample taken
from one Of the Old shafts upon the ledge
assayed sis in gold. The ore Ia free and OF
the same character found in the above de-
scribed mines. This is considered to be
West Of the SaXton is
THE AURORA GROUP,
Owned by Messrs. Graham, Williamson and
ROckhill. The group is composed Of four
mines, the Katy G, Emma G, oregon and
Mount Morgan. The working consists Of
tunnel 10 feet long and shaft 35 feet
deep and q tunnel IS feet long. At the
snaft there is body OF very good ore as
saying 81 per ton in free gold. The ledge
j seven feet wide. and in some places very
strong The groupings assay $40 in gold.
Like the Saxton this property has great
merit, the ledge being very strong and well
defined. 1T is understood in this vicinity
that this propers. Ii ander bond to New
