noint of lime ana opens ag&in into q large
chamber from which large qdahtllN u
ore has been stopped. This Slope extends
200 TO the northwest and 20 rect southeast
and to the level above. Inc ore t2keu
from this portion of the nine was high
grade Samples can be had running INTO
the thousands but the average would prop
ably reach SO to Sio per ton. Ihere nave
been several thousand tons OF inns ore
worked at the Chairman mill. mere sun

the south wall OF the mine having cen
reached it is also questionable Whether
the northwest has been reacneu. ~ Is 9l'e ny,
common opinion that the south or hanging
wall is shale and that the north or loot
wall is porphyy. Through the mine IN
many places lunches 81 lime are FOUND;
but TINS far they have been but puhches,
or being found on each side OF the lime.
The ore in the chairman group Is similar
totilat in the Aultman aud JOGua mines,
/ possibly not so free as that in the last
I named mine The reduction OF TINS ore mas
5ll been with the ordinary stamp mil,
nsing CONFER plates for saving he gold
The last work showed Il saving OF apou! oo
per cent OF the gold, while at the beginning
but 20 per cent was saved. eonslderap1e
portion Of the gold that is not free is found
in white carbonate OF lead, and another
portion Is found i'll heavy black IRON,
either of which can be readily saved by
concentration. The cyanide process ms
| been used upon the taillnas ut the Chaln-
man MILL The tailin@s carrying some nee
gold, aud gold allOyed with the carbonate
OF lead makes the process fall short of be-
| inc d success.
The Chairman lcdae passes through The
entire length OF tie Chairman mine 10 the
west end Of the location aud continue on
It's westward course through the TURKEY
aud V mines. These mines are but lutte
prospeeted, and nothing IS known OF their
value except that they are on the eX-
tension OF the Chairman and Aultman lode.
The same can be said o. the Southern Cross
mine. There is some more Work done upon
the Southern Cross. Samples taken from
one Of the shafts assayed 81 per ton. Be
tween the Southern Cross and the Cna1n-
man mines lies the
THG 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 s. to the ton
in gold. The deepest Woraiugs are about
115 feet. where the ore is found at the bot
tom; but very little Prospecting has been
done West OF the Golden Revenue and
| South Of the Chairman lies the
ELY uIEE,
The property of General Thomas and L.
! NJ Clark. The workings consist of a tun-
! mel 70 feet long, at the end Of which shaft
| is sunk in the ledge, which is & bout six feet
vide and assays S per ton in gold. The
| ledge can be traced the entire length Of
the mine. South OF the Ely and to the
western end lies
TIE MOHAWK,
The property of Messrs Thomas, Clark,
| y cher & Hensser. There is Il shaft 30 feet
| which ere has been developed tnat assays
! SO per ton in gold. West o. the Chairman
| group lies the
ROB ROY NINE,
The property Of Captain CARPENTER, Hip
aud others, The claim has been develop
ed BY series Of tunnels in which some
! very good ore has been found. oWing To
the resenee Of water GEAR the surface the
| ore is nor free, but is in 4 Sulphhrate form
| The owners nave expended at least five
thouaand a9llars on tbs property. Adioin-
ms The Rob Roy GA the Wcas is
The LOS AnGELGs,
The property of Hm Watson. Lc4cn Bros.
| aud Others. There il Il shaft and Tunnel
upcn the mine on which the owners have
| done considerable work and exposed some
| ore. \ general sample taken ass8yed SO per
ton in gold. A lot Of socond-c class ore work
Cd at the Cnainm&n mill yielded 81 in gold.
South Of the Rob Roy mine lies
CHIEF OF THE HILL,
owned by Samuel PARK iusou and others.
! The owners have done some work on the
mine aud developed some ore.
! Adjoining the Los Angeles mine on the
! west is the SaEt0n, the property of Gov
| eruor Mckinley aad Others. AT this point
! the ledge is very strong. Crop
pings are found high above the surface in
many places over the mines. The prospect
! is covered by U. 8. patent AID 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 Is Tree and of
the same character found in the above de-
scribed mines. This is considered to be
| one OF the best locations in the district.
! West Of the SaXton is
THE AURORA GROUP,
! Owned by Messrs. Graham, Williamson and
| R0vkhill. The group is composed of four
! mines the Katy c. Emma G, Oregon and
Mount MORGAN. The working consists of u
| tunnel ll2 feet long ard shaft 30 feet
! deep and tunnel IS feet long. At the
! shaft there is a 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 TINS property is under bond to New
| York parties
| The Rosebud mine is to the west of the
! Aurora group and is the property OF Mr.
| Kockhill. There lisa shaft upon this mine
! 4O1eet deep and tunnel 100 feet long which
expose ore worth s. per ton in gold
! Continuing to the s0uth@ard on the main
mineral belt, but a great many locations
are passed over, all of which have

or less gold. They are but slightly pros
