Interesting Mining Notes From the
Tintic Miner.

Tintic Miner.
The Peru is one of the best known
of Tintic's undeveloped properties lies
only about one-half mile north of Eu-
! reka. and the little work already done
makes a very good showing. The Peru
will undoubtedly develope into a mine.
w. c. B. Allen states to the Miner
that arrangements will probably be
made in the near future for the in
| corporation of the Utah Chief group,
which lies immediately east of and adj
| joining the North Star. Considerable
| development work has already been
! done on this ground and a body of low
/ grade ore shows in the tunnel. The
/ Utah Chief has all that could be asked
/ for in the matter of position, and can
! easily be developed into a paying prop
osition.
1T is reported that negotiations are
I in progress for the sale of the Eagle
mine. This property is located up the
i gulCh south of Eureka and is owned
/ by Captain John McChrystal. When
/ it was worked several years ago it
/ produced a few tons of gold ore which
/ is currently reported to have been the
richest ever taken out of this camp,
( and fancy price. variously stated at
| from $500, 900 to 100000. is said to have
| been refused for IT Practically little
| development has been done on the
! Eagle. and we see no reason why it
should not prove one of the bonanzas
of Tintic.
! Another mill is in sight for Tintic.
| We are reliably informed that ar
rangement are now in progress for the
! Immediate erection of a twenty-stamp
mill in Mammoth hollow for the treat
ment of the Utah low grade ores. The
mill will be located close to and i'm
mediately above the new Sioux mill.
| but will have no connection with that
! plant. The Utah is said to have i'm
mense quantities of milling ore in sight
and the mill will probably prove as
1 great a success as that of the Sioux
/ Consolidated company.
Shipments from the district for the
1 week past are reported as follows.
From the Bullion-Beck mine 80 car
loads of ore, from the Bullion-Becl1
mill, 10 carloads of concentrates. from
the Centennial Eureka carloads of
ore, from the EurekaeHill mine 10 car
! loads of ore, from the Gemini 9 car
/ loads Of ore, from the Godiva 4 car
loads of ore, from the Utah carloads
of ore, from the Mammoth mine car
loads of ore, from the Mammoth mill ?
bars of bullion, from the Ajax s car
/ loads ore, from the Sioux mill 2 bars
of bullion, from the Dragon Iron mine
/ 2 carloads daily
Excavating for the forty new stamps
for the Eureka Hill mill is being rap
| idly pushed and will be completed be-
fore the list of March. The Eureka
Hill mill in it's construction and opera
| ton has presented many Innovations
but none are more pronounced than
/ the position of the new stamps. as
/ they will be placed Immediately in the
rear of the present sixty. The new
stamps will be in position and ready
to drop on about May / and the Eu-
reka Hill will then be 100-stamp mill
which is, we believe, the largest mill
of this class in the world 1t is be-
lieved that the present system of set
Ting and pumping back the water
that the present supply will be amply
sufficient to meet the necessities of the
mill even with 100 stamps in opera
ton.
