mines to buy. The great increase is
in the less developed counties carrying
the Mother Lode, especially in the al
most virgin fields of the northern and
the southern desert counties.
The thousand locations in Shasta
County will be nearly equaled by
Trinity's record and possibly ex-
ceeded by Siskiyou. These three coun-
ties include a region filed with quartz
veins, in which thorough prospecting
and quartz development have hardly
fairly begun. The figures from River
side and San Diego illustrate the re-
markable new activity in the desert
regions. More prospectors are this VIM
ter swarming over the deserts than
ever before, and San Diego's record of
about 1000 locations and Riverside's OF
over 1900 will undoubtedly be exceeded
in 1898.
The most significant showing is that
from Tuolumne County, from which
1245 locations in 1897 are reported. The
figures from Tdolumne and Calaveras
show the flocking to the Mother Lode,
and the encouragement which even
prospectors find there after two gene
rations of gold mining more than any
thing else shows the tremendous pos
sibilities of mining interests in this
State.
In the southern part of the State be-
tween the end of what is termed the
Mother Lode in Mariposa County and
the Mohave Desert farther south,
stretches a long section Of the Sierra
Nevada range. Many prospectors have
turned thitherward this year. This
comprises the mountain regions Of Ma
dera, Fresno and Kern counties. The
section is rich with promise, but it's
gold-producing career is practically all
before it.
The 451 locations filed in MADEIRA
County in 1897 were more than three
times the number lled in 1896 and more
than the total from the organization of
the county in 1893 to January, 1897.
Madera's gold production in 1886 was
only S1O4,340. Fresno County produced
only $2S, 235 in gold in 1896. This year
has brought her a gold and an oil
boom. Of the 533 locations 200 were
for oil prospects, but the 1893 extra
gold locations show that at last the
gold resources of Fresno County
are on the eve of great develop
ment. So little work has been
done in this county that there
are but one or two small
stamp mills and a few arras-
tras in operation. Practically
no mining has been done be-
low the surface. The late I'M
su C s of prospectors /LE>
promises good returns and nm
great life in that section ZEl<M
during the coming year. /MzTM@
