Work has been resumed in the main north DRIFT
in this tunnel and during the week 1t has been ex-
tended 10 feet in the Gould d Curry Company s
ground; face is in porphyry and quartz; total
length from the mouth of the tunnel, 43o feet
In the Ophir mine on the 1000 level the south
DRIFT from the shaft station is out total distance
of 1854 feet. the face being in porphyry formation

1876 feet in similar formation. No changes are
reported IN the condition OF the Ophlr mine in the
old Centra-tunnel region From The ore which
has been stored in the mine they have holsted nifty
three TONS the average assay value of which, per
samples taken from the cars when raised to the
surface, was S29 IS per ton. Have shipped to the
Mexican mill eighty-one tons and 1880 pounds of
ore, the average assay value of which, per railroad
car samples, was $50 so per ton
the two upiases above the 975 level continues to
look well, and is yielding ore OF high grade: The
quantity of ore extracted during the week was
thirty-three carloads of the average mine sample
assay of 500 IA per ton.
In the Alpha Consolidated mine the southwest
drift from the crosscut the 45O level Is out
80 feet. The face is in quartz assaying from IS to
So per ton. The north drift from this west cross
cut is out Il feet The face is in quartz assaying
! SIS to $l1 per ton. The west drift from the Ward
shaft station the 500 level is in 1857 feet. The
face is in porphyry.
The yield OF the Potosi mine for the past week
1872 tons and 1900 pounds of ore, which was
sent to the Nevada mill. The average battery as
say OF this $50 50 per ton.
The yield of the Chollar mine for the week was
about S412 tons, the average battery assay of
which was 1913 80 per ton.
In the occidental Con- mine the face or the south
west drift on the $50 level was in porphyry with
seams of quartz showing value in goid On the 500
level the north drift is in total distance OF Oh
feet: the face is in hard porphyry giving low as
says. The upr4ise in the north drift is up feet;
top is in quartz and clay; assays average about
SIS per ton Have cone no work In the south
drift during the week. $50 level-The crosscut
west from the north drift at point 80 feet north
OF the main Wine has been extended IL feet. To-
tai, So feet. The formation is hard porphyry.
In the Alta mine, on the S25 level the south
lateral drift extended last week II feet in
quartz assaying from So 30 to $l3 IS per ton. The
in vein matter of low assay.
Letters from the other mines contain no news of
any Importance.
