ore has been store1. This Slope eXtends

| the thousands, but the average would prob
ably reach $35 to $40 per ton TheIe nave
been several thousand tons OF tins ore
worked at the Chairman mill. There stili
remains several thousand tons OF same quail
| ity in the mine. There is no Indication OF
! the south wall of the mine having teen
reached it is also questionable whether
| the northwest has been reached III Is the
| common opinion that the south or hanging
| wall is shale, and that the north or 1901
many places punches OF lime ars ioend;
| but thus far they have been but nnnenes,
ore being found on each side OF the lime.
The ore in the Chairman group Is similar
| to that in the Aultman and Joanna mines,
possibly not so free as that in the last
| named mine. The reduction of this ore has
all been with the ordinary. stamp mill,
using copper plates for saving me gold e.
| The last work showed u saving of about 60
| per cent of the gold, while at the beginning
| but 40 per cent was saved. considerahle
| portion Of the gold that is not Tree is 1ouhd
| in white carbonate OF lead, and another
portion is found in heavy black IRON,
either of which can be readily saved by
concentration. The cyanide process hi $
been used upon the tailings at the Chain
| man mill The tailings carrying some free
| gold, and gold alleged with the carbonate
of lead, makes the process fall short OF be-
| ing a success.
The Chainmau ledge passes through the
| entire length of the Chainman mine to the
west end of the location and continue on
| its westward course through the Turkey
| and mines. These mines are but nttie
| prospected, and nothing is known OF their
valne except that they are on the eX-
| tension of the Chairman and Aultinan lode.
| The same can be said Of the Southern Cross
mine. There is some more work done upon
the southern Cross. Samples taken IRON
one of the shaft assayed $27 per ton. Be-
| tween the sou hern Cross and the CHAIN
man mines lies the
