tinues to the potion of the shaft but is not
the same grade. Fifty tons of ore taken
from this shaft assayed S27 in gold to tie
ton. The ore is the same in character as
the Gold Hill does not show as much gold in
panniGg, but is remarkably regular in as
saying. The ledge is very prominent and
crops out at several points on the mine.
There are number of other locations
upon Gold Hill. The principal ones are the
City of New York. owned by Mcssrs. Osti-
pard. Moore and Weber They have shaft
70 feet deep, a drift has been run 80 feet
from the bottom of the shaft which is all in
ore assaying 81 per ton in gold.
The Hickory, lying north OF the He'll in
the Hill, belonging to Capt. Harmon and
Capt. Carpenter, has shaft 30 feet deep in
ore
North of the. Gold Hill mine some dis
lance is the Midnight and Phoenix loca-
lions, owned by d. G. Mcdonald Jas. P. Nc
Omie, J. b. Simpson and others. There Is q
shaft on this mine 90 feet deep which taps
a strong ledge six feet wide of ore assaying
SIS in gold. A small streak of ore in the
ledge assays $3.50 in gold and 81 per cent.
lead.
East of the Midnight short distance is
the October location, the property OF
Messrs. Simpson and Rynearson. The mine
was worked in the early days of Robinson
at which time deep shaft was sunk and
some ore was extracted which was princi-
ply silver carrying but little gold.
Journeying to the northwest the ledge
makes a turn more to the south. There are
locations most of the way upon which some
prospecting has been done which all show
gold. At distance of about two miles the
Magma Charter is reached, the property of
Thos Rockhill and others. The ore is of
all entire different character, resembling
the ore of the north ledge, carrying silver,
lead and gold. The ore runs about 30 per
cent. lead, ounces silver and 81 in gold.
The ledge is three feet wide at q depth of
30 feet. Two miles west of the Magma Char
ter the
WEST CAMP
Mines are reached. These mines were
worked in the early seventies. The ore
found here is different i'll character from
the mines already described, some of them
carrying copper in large quantities. The
principal mines of this vicinity are the
Boulder and Boss, the property OF John
DAILY, upon which there has been consider
able work done. On the former there is a
shaft and open cut. Ores taken from these
workings and shipped for reduction as
sayed 500 in silver and IL per cent. lead.
The latter claim BOSS has deep shaft out
of which some high grade silver-lead ore
has been extracted.
TIL, Ragsdale and Rockhill mine ia the
picnity shows d vein two feet wide at u
depth of 81 feet, which assays 50 per cent.
lead. Is ounces silver and $50 gold
Messrs. Hip, Wren and others own seve-
raj mines in this locality, the principal
ones being the Pilot KEoh, carrying gold :
the Emma, carrying gold, silver and Lead :
the Yarmouth, Monitor, Star and Star OF
the Vest all carrying copper and ores
worked for that metal. The ore was re-
duced at a local copper smelling furnace
and gave good results.
