The ore in the Chairman group Is similar
to that in the AlIltman 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 mlli,
using copper plates for saving The gold.
The last work sh owed saving of about 90
per cent Of the gold, while at the beginning
but 10 per cent was saved. A considerable
portion OF the gold that is not free is found
in n white carbonate of lead, and another
portion is found in a heavy black iron,
either OF which can be readily saved by
concentration. The cyanide process ne
been used upon the tailings at the Chain
man mill The tailings carrying some free
oil Wi

ing 81 success.
The Chairman ledge passes through the
entire length of the Chairman mine to the
west end of the location and continue on
it's westward course through the Turkey
and Y 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 81 TIE shaft assayed $27 per ton. be
tween The Southern Cross and the Chain
man miE2s lies the
THE GOLDEN REVENUE.
The properly Of Messrs. Simpon Campton,
Harris :, III others, There is shaft and
other workings upon the mine that expose
al large vein Of ore that assays s. to the ton
in gold. TIE deepest workings are about
175 feet. where the ore is found at the bot
done. West of the Golden Revenue and
South of the Chairman lies the
ELY NINE,
The property of General Thomas and F.
NJ Clark. The workings consist of q tun-
nel 40 feet long, at the end of which shaft
is sunk in the ledge, which is about six feet
wide aud 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
THE MOHAWK,
The property of Mes srs Thomas, Clark,
Weber d Heusser. There is shaft 30 feet
deep and an open cut upon the mine in
which ore has been developed that assays
$40 per ton in gold. West of the Chairman
group lies the
ROB ROY MINE,
The property of Captain Carpenter Hip
! and others. The claim has been develop
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 n q sulphurate form
The owners have expended at least five
thousand dollars on the property. Adioin-
ing the Rob Roy on the west is
THE Los ANGELES,
The property of VIM. Watson, Leach Bros
and others. There is a shaft and tunnel
upon the mine on which the owners have
done considerable work and exposed some
ore. 4 general sample taken assayed SO per
ton III gold. A lot OF second-clas ore work
ed at the Chairman mill yielded 81 in gold.
South Of the ROD Roy mine lies
CHIEF OF THE HILL,
Owned By Samuel Park inson and others.
The 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 the surface in
many places over the mines. The prospect
is covered by U. s. patent and has remain"
ed idle for many wears. A sample taken
assayad us in gold. The ore is free 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 SaXGon is
THE AURORA GROUP,
Owned by Messrs Graham, Williamson and
Rockhill. The group is composed of four
mines, the Katy g, Emma q, Oregon and
Mount Morgan. The working consists of a
tunnel I12 feet long ana shaft 95 feet
deep and tunnel IS feet long. At the
shaft there is q body of very good ore as
saying 81 per ton in free gold. The ledge
is seven feet wide, and in some places very
strong. The Groupings assay $40 in gold
Like the SaNton this property has great
merit, the ledge being very strong and we'll
defined. 1t is understood in this vicinity
that this 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..
Rockhil There lisa shaft upon this mine
A9feet deep and q tnuael 100 feet thong which
expose ore worth - yer ton in gold.
