200 to the northwest and ~ feet southeast,
and to the level above. The ore taken

| the thousands, but the average would PROB
| ably reach $35 to $40 per ton. There have
| been several thousand tons o. tAls ore
| worked at the chairman mill There still
remains Seyeral thousand tons OF same >il9'-
| lty in the mine. There is no indication OF
I the south wall of the mine having zen
reached it is also questionable whether
| the northwest has been reached. II IS the
! common opinion that the south O1 h3pElnS
wall is shale, and that the nortti or loot
| wall is porphy1y Through tie mine in
| many places punches OF lime ar. found;
| but thus far they have been but punches,
| ore being found on each side OF the lime
| The ore in the chairman group is similar
| to that in the Aultman and Joaua 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.
| The last work showed saving of about 60
per cent Of the gold, while at the beginning
J but 40 per cent was saved. y considerable
| portion Of the gold that is not free is found
| in 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 taiiings 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 III their
! yalue except that they are on the eX-
tension of the Chainmanand Ault man 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 a shaft and
Iother workings upon the nj inc that expose
la large vein of ore that assays S. to the ton
lin gold. The deepest workings are about
I1i5 feet. where the ore is found at the bot
tom; but very little prospecting has been
ldone. West of the Golden Revenue and
lSouth Of the chairman lies the
ELY MINE,
1.-THE property of General Thomas and Z.
NJ. Clark. The workings consist of q ttu-
Incl 10 feet long, at the end OF which a SHAFT
Ills sunk in the ledge, which is about six fee
Gwide and assays S. per ton in gold. The
Hedge can be traced the tire lenptIl ri
the mine. South of the Ely and to tie
IWestern end lies
THE MOHAWK,
The property of Messrs. Thomas, Clark.
Weber u Heusser There * shaft 30 feet
deep and an open cut upon the mine in
which ore has been developed thar assays
| 80 per ton in gold. West of the Chairman
group lies the
ROB ROY MINE,
The property of Captain Carpenter. Eilp
| and others. The claim has been deyelnr-
! ed By series of tunnels in which some
| very good ore has been found. Owing to
the presence OF water near the surface the
! ore Is not free, but Is in Il silphur4te t0rnl
! The owners have expended at least five
THOUSAND dollars on the property. Aaioin-
ing the Rob Roy on the west is
THE Los ANGELES.
The property of VIM. Watson, Iea"n Bros.
and others. There is a shaft and tunnel
upon the mine on which the owners nave
done considerable work and exposed some
ore. a general sam pie taken assG we'd g., pef
cd at the chairman mill yielded 81 IL gold.
South OF the Rob Roy niue lies
CHIEF OF THE I'LL,
Owned by Samuel Parl inson and others.
The owners have done some work on the
mine and developed some ere.
Adjoining the LOs Angeles mine on the
west is the SaXton. the property of Gov
ernor Mckinley and others. NJ 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 L. s. patent and has remain
ed IDLE Tor many years. y sample taken
from one OF the cid shafts upon the ledge
assayed $1S in gold The ore is irec and of
the same character found in the above de-
scribed mines, This is considered 70 be
one Of the best locations in the district
West of the SaXton is
THE AURORA GROUP,
Owned by MessrS Graham. Williamson and
Rockhill. The group is composed Of four
mines, the Katy &, Emma c. Oregon and
Mount Morpan. The working consists OF a
tunnel III feet long aud shaft 81 feet
deep and tunnel Is feet long At the
shaft there is body OF very good ore as
saving 81 per ton in free cold The ledge
is seven feet wide, and in some places very
strong. The Groupings ASSAY S10 in gold.
Like the SaXtOn this property has great
merit, the ledge beiuG very strong and we'll
defined. 1t is understood ia mis- vicinity
that this property Is under bond to New
York parties
The Rosebud mine is to the west OF the
Aurora group an1 is the property OF Mr..
Rockhill. There isa shaft upon this mine
AZ feet deep and d tlnnel 100 feet long which
expose ore worth s. per ton in gold.
Continuing to the south ward on the main
mineral belt, but q great many locations
are passed over all of which have
some work done upon them and SLOW more
or less gold. They are bu4 signify pros
