been several thousand tons OF thls ore
worked at the Chairman mill mere SUN
remains several thousand TONS OF sam sanle al
ity in the mine There is no INDICATION OF
the south wall of the mine having Teen
reach ed it is also questionable Whether
the northwest has been reached. IL Is the
comm on opinion that the south or hanging
wall is shale, and that the north or loot
wall is porphyly Through the mine IN
many places punches of lime are found;
but tn as far they have been but punches,
ore being found on each side OF the Lime.
The ore in the Chairman gronpls similar
to that in the Aultman and Joanna mines,
possibly not so free as that III the last
named mine. The reduction oil TINS ore mas
all been with the ordinary stamp mill,
The last work showed a saving of about 60
per cent of the gold, while at The beginning
but 10 Der cent was saved considerable
portion Of the gold that is not lree 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 has
been used upon the talllngs at the Chaln-
man mill, The tailings carrying some free
gold and gold allowed with the carbonate
OF lead, makes the process fall snort OF pc
ing 81 success.
The Chainman 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 V miucs. These mines are but little
proepected, aud nothing is known of their
value except that they are on the eX-
tension ofthe Chairman and Aultman lode.
The same can be said Of the Southern Cross
niue. There is some more work done upon
the Southern Cross. Samples taken from
Que 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 aud others, There is shaft and
other workings upon the mine that expose
q large vein of ore that assays S. to the ton
in gold. The deepest workings are about
175 feet. where the Gre 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 NINE,
The property of General Thomas and T,
NJ Clark. The workings consist of a tun-
mel 40 feet long, at the end Of which a 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 mine. South Of the Ely and to the
western end lies
THE MOHAWK,
The property OF Messrs Thomas, Clark,
Weber d Heuseer. There is shaft II feet
deep and an ODen cut upon !he mime ii
which ore has been developed tbTt assays
80 per ton in gold. West Of the Chairman
group Lies the
ROB- ROY NINE,
The property Of Captain Carpenter. Hin
ara Others. The claim has been develop
cd by series Of tunnels in which some
very good ore hGs been found. Owing to
the presence Of water near the surface the
ore is not tree, oUl Is IN a sulphurAtc form
lhe owners have expended at least five
taQuSaAd collars OF Ike property. Adioin-

TIE Los ANGELES,
The property Of Wm Watson, Leach Bros.
and Others. There is 81 shaft and tunnel
upon the niue on which the owners have
