five feet further east tho ledge is again
crosscut to the south IL distance Of 40 feet in
IS gold ore. y Ia distance OF 20 feet further
east in the east drift, the Wine to the upper
level is reached, which is referred to above.
At the bottom of this Wine drift leads to
the north Is feet. cutting through small
point Of lime ana opens again into Il large
chamber from which large quantity OF
POO to the northwest and 20 feet southeast,
and to the Level above. The ore taken
from this portion OF the mine was high
grade. Samples can be had running into
the thousands, but the average would prob
ably reach So TO $40 per ton. There have
been several thousand tons of this ore
worked ut the Chairman mill. There still
remajus several tho uSand tons OF same quail
ity in the mine. There is no indication OF
the south wall Of the mine having cen
reached it is also questionable whether
The northwest has been reached. 1t is the
common opinion that the south or hanging
wall is shale, aud that the north or foot
wall is porphylN. Through the mine in
many places punches OF lime ara found;
but thus far they have been but oanches,
ore being found on each side of the lime.
The ore in the Chairman groups similar
to that in the Aultman 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 mill,
using copper plates for saving the gold.
The last work showed Il saving of about GO
per cent of the gold, while at the beginning
but 20 per cent was saved. considerable
portion OF the gold that is not free 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 hiss
been used upon the tailiugs at the Chain
man mill, The tailings carrying some free
gold, and gold alleged with the carbonate
of lead, makes the process fall short OF be-
ing a success.
The Chairman 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 mines. These mines are but little
prospected, and nothing is known OF their
value except that they are on the eX-
tension ofthe Chairman aud Aultman lode.
The same can he said ofthe Southern Cross
mine. There is some more work done upon
the Southern Cross. Samples taken from
one of the shafts asSayed 81 per ton. Be
tween the Southern Cross and the Chain
man mines lies the
