n Miners Opinion of the Pros
poets Of Florence Camp.
From the Spokane Review.
f. d. Gallaher has just returne,
to Burke from n trip to the Flor
ence mining district. He viewet
the camp in the light ola disinter
ested party, and as he is an ex
perienced miner the following let
ter will be of some value:
FLORENCE camp is a mountain.
GUS basin or plateau, the elevation
being about $500 feet. There are
no ancient channels or river beds
The millions of placer gold taken
from this camp in the '6Os were
worn off the many quartz lodges
by natures forces. Everything in
the camp goes to prove this. There
is no foreign wash; the placer gold
is precisely the same in character
as the quartz gold lately milled.
1t is only lately that the real pos
sibilities of this district are becom-
ing known. The first thing to
demonstrate to a certainty the
future of Florence was the custom
mill, which only went into opera
ton few months ago. Prospec-
tors who before this could not get
credit for a sack of flour are now
shipping bullion and now the fes-
tive merchant is all smiles. Prac-
tically speaking, there is very lit
tie development done yet; the boys
haven't had time. But when in
telligent work is done it seems to
show all right. Among the best
developed properties are the Ban
ner, the Poorman, the Gold Bug
and Gold Cross, the Ozark, the
Gilt Edge and the Josephine.
"Of these the Banner has shaft
30 feet deep and drift of 60 feet
on the ledge, showing good ore
from the surface down and ore in
each end of the drift. In this
claim there are thousands of dol
lars in sight.
"The Poorman has considerably
the most development work done
and has a good many thousand
dollars worth of ore on the dump.
The Gilt Edge is a producer only
opened last winter. The Gold
Cross and Gold Bug, owned by c.
?. Cone, the recorder for the dis
trict, and John Wells, is rich
property. From the decomposed
groupings of the ledge they in
short time rocked out 500 and
still have the broken quartz left to
mill. They also rocked out 20
tons and realized $3.50 per ton
with a rocker. They then took it
to the mill and milled out $35 per
ton more. These parties are driv-
ing q tunnel to tap the ledge at
depth Of about 100 feet. They
are now in about 1856 feet and still
have 90 feet yet to drive.
"There are a number of other
fine properties-in fact, the camp
Will bear inspection. AS for the
lodges pinching, there is no indi-
cation of it and there is indication
of their continuing. One of these
l will mention. Taking the trend
of these leads, you will find them
cropping out 5000 feet below on
the Salmon breaks.
~ would not advise working
men to go into Florence. It is a
new camp, with prospectors de-
velOping their own claims. The
ore of Florence is entirely free
milling. I did not see a pound of
base ore in the camp. There
seems to be just the required
amount of lime in the leads to
keep it free. +, ID. GALI.AHER
