aud to the levc, above. The ore taken
from this portion Of the mine was high
grade. Samples can be md running into
the thousands, but the Average would prob
ably reach $50 to $40 FER ton. There have
been several thousand tons OF this ore
worked at the Chairman mill. There sun
relnains several thousand tons OF same qlIal-
ity in the mine. There is no indication OF
the south wall OF the mine having seen
reached II is also questionable whether
the northwest has been reached. 1t is the
common opinion that the south or hanging
wall IL siiale. and that the north or foot
wall is pOrphyry Through the mine in
many pieces hunches OF lime arc hound;
but thus far they have been but ~ aches,
ore being found on each side OF the lime.
The ore in the Chairman group is similar
to thtf in the Aultman and Joanna mines,
possibly not 50 free as that in the lust
named mine. The reduction OF this ore has
all been with the ordinary stamp mill,
using copper plates for saving he gold.
The lust wori. showed Il saving of about GO
per cent OF the gold, while at the beginning
but 10 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 a heavy black IRON,
either OF which can be readily saved by
concentration. The cyanide process ht
been used upon the tailings at the Chaln-
man mill, Tho tailiuPs carrying some free
gold, and gold alleged with the carbonate
OF lead, makes the process fall short OF be-
ing success.
The Chainmar ledge passes through the
entire lcagth Of the chainman 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
prospeeted, and pothng is known OF their
value except that they are on the cx-
tension of the Chairman aud Aultmdn lode
