two feet in depth, 500 pounds of ore
owned by George Ellison, jr., Fred
White and David James.
Daniel Kelleher and V. K. Compson
are now the owners of the Cerro-
Gordo claim. just beyond Lober's can
yon. This property has produced some
exceptionally rich silver ore, and was
stocked by eastern people. Work,
however, was allowed to stop and the
stockholders were unable to agree upon
a plan of development. A patent has
been applied for but was not allowed

WELL PLEASED WITH FRISCO.
Secured a Group of Claims in Beaver
Lake District.

A H Morris and Z. NJ. West, repre-
sentatives of the Industrial Reporter,
returned yesterday from quite an ex-
tended examination of the different
mining camps in Beaver county, and
they heartily concur with the state
ments made from time to time in these
columns that this is one of the most
richly mineralized portions in the west.
Mr. Norris is a graduate of a school
of mines of high standing; he is an
experienced metallurgiSt. assayer and
chemist, and after travelling over this
country and South Africa, he is free
to say that in all his wanderingS he
never saw a section that struck him
so forcibly as the country in and
around Frisco. which. he states. has
barely been prospected as yet; and he
is of the opinion that with more thor
ough development work several heavy
producers viii be uncovered there. Mr.
Morris made an examination of the
Horn Silver mine, and he reports that
it is a splendid producer, and entitled
to all the good things that have been
said concerning ii. He also confirms
the report of a new find in the vicinity
Of the Yellow Jacket mine. From all
indications he believes that the ledge
on which the new find is located runs
through the Yellow Jacket ground.
In Beaver Lake district Mr. Morris
found something that struck mis- fancy
in the group of claims consisting of the
Kate Sacket. the Martha and the
Emerald, and so highly was he i'm
pressed with the value of this ground
that he at once opened negotiations for
it and being successful, is now pre-
pairing to incorporate on the property.
Mr.. Morris is acting in behalf of east
ern capital and the treasury stock of
the company will be placed in the east.
AS soon as the company enters into
legal existence work will begin at once
in the development of the Kate Sacket
group, which title the new corporation
will bear. and it is the intention TO
sink a shaft to a depth of 400 feet
Or until the water level is reached. by
which time it is expected a large body
Of good ore will be uncovered. as there
Is no doubt as to the existence of min
aral in that section, as Mr.. Morris has
demonstrated to his satisfaction that a
monster mother lode cuts through that
country in a northerly and southerly
direction.
Messrs. Morris and West also made
IN inspection of Star district, Rocky
district old Shauntee, Newton, Lincoln
and other CAMPS in Beaver, and they
Ire unanimous in their conclusion that
,aDital could not do better than make
Investments almost anywhere in the
county. as there are any number of old
producers in the various camps there.

BLUE MOUNTAIN COMPANY.
Maps Prepared Showing the Claims
and Tunnel Site.


Among the corporations in Utah is
that of the Blue Mountain Tunnel &
Mining company. whose valuable prop
erty is located in the Blue Mountain
mining district, San Juan county,
Utah. reporter of this paper has
seen a plat of the claims and the
profile of the tunnel and mountain
which has just been prepared for the
company. This map not only shows
the II claims, millsite, and tunnel site,
but the group of claims owned by the
Gold Queen Mining company, also a
Salt Lake Incorporation.
a block of $4,000 shares of the treas
ury stock of the Blue Mountain Tun-
mel company has been placed at %
cents a share with New York parties,
and it is proposed to commence active
operations within the next 30 days.
The showing on the Flagstaff, :, one of
the company properties, is such as to
warrant the expenditure of some
money. This shaft is now down So
feet, showing a we'll defined vein nearly
five feet wide, carrying from SIS to s25
in gold; the ore of course, being free
milling.
1t is proposed TO sink this shaft at
least % feet further, and when it has
attained that depth it is believed a
sufficient showing will be made to
warrant the erection of a gold mill.
Work also will be commenced on the
tunnel, which will be advanced as
rapidly as possible, and it is con-
fdently believed that the ore body I'M
covered on the surface will be cut
within 300 feet at depth of about 600
feet below he surface.
The directors of the company are

UINTAH COUNTY GOLD.
Excitement Over Rich Discoveries
Near Vernon.

Near Vernon.
It is reported that some wonderful
lodges of gold ore have been found in
Uintah county this state. near Yer
non. and if one-tenth of what is stated
regarding these finds are true Utah can
boast of the possession of one of the
richest gold mines in the world, which
goes to prove the oft-repeated asser-
ton that this is one of the greatest
mineral states in the Union.
The Midway Advance, in speaking Of
the recent discovery. says:
Vernon is in a state of suppressed
excitement almost too deep for eX-
preston. Gold is the cause, and gold
in such quantities That the wonder
ment and excitement is very pardon
able Assays of rock in every direc-
ton are being obtained that would
make Croesus' teeth water. On the
Sarah. one of the Morning Glory
group. gold is visible to the naked eye
right on the surface of the claim. and
in such substantial quantities that the
owners nave found it necessary to put
a notice il the Vernon News 60 pre-
vent the stealing of the rock. Some of
this rock assays over 5000 GOO. On the
Blue Jay and Falcon. two miles from
town. assays have gone S13.0O0 and
s23. 600 in gold, and on the Zion, prop
erty in the same vicinity, very salts
factory assays have been had. OF
course none of these properties have
as yet been proved as to the extent of
the reefs. but the surface indications
certainly are better than anything ever
found in British Columbia.
There are e.166 troy ounces in ton
Of pure gold. the value OF which. AT
S20.67 an ounce, is 1902. S6l.22 The
specimen from which the Vernon as
say was taken must have been nearly
one-third pure gold.
