Outlook For Gold Mountain.

wei known mining man, who is
well acquainted with the mineraliza-
ton of Gold Mountain district. in Pr
ute county. this state, is of the opin-
ion that in the near future this camp
VIII develop into a second Cripple
Creek. and his advice is to keep an
eye on the camp"
This gentleman has made a careful
examination of the formation of the
great Colorado camp mentioned above,
ana ne states that the naturalization of
Gold Mountain and Cripple Creek are
almost Identical. In both districts tel
lurlum of gold is to be found and also
sllvanite, which, although failing to
snow any free gold, assays high in
this metal
While the surface showing at Gold
Mountain is somewhat immense but
little development work has been done
there as yet, but the deepest workings
go to prove the permanency of the ore
deposits and that the gold values i'm
prove with depth.
The gentleman above alluded to has
taken many samples of ore from Gold
Mountain, and he states that he has
OBTAINED fire assays that show as high
as $4,000 in gold to the ton, while the
mineral, on the average, is a high
grade milling proposition, and that by
using the combination process of
stamps and plates, cyanide and con-
centration, nearly all of the values can
be saved
1t is believed that Gold Mountain
will enjoy a healthy boom this summer
and that before the end of the season
several properties there will be sending
in ore and bullion
