THE BOSTON AND MERcUR.
Dignowity's Report on These Camp
Floyd Gold Properties.

The Boston & Mercur Gold Mining
company is cut with a report on it's
West Dip properties, in Camp Floyd
district, which is as complete and
elaborate as anything that has ever
been issued in this line in this western
country and in conformity with the
report published ON the Mercur mine
several Years ago.
This report was prepared by G. L.
Diguowfty, NJ. E., and is profusely and
handsomely illustrated while the
descriptive matter is exhaustive and
worthy of the magnificent properties
which form the subject matter.
In this report a synopsis is given of
the application and success of the
cyanide process, Which was first intro
dueed into Utah and employed in the
reduction of gold ores at the Mercur
mill by Gill S. Peyton. An exhaustive
report is then made on the amount of
ore in sight in the workings of the

The writer also gives a treatise on
the geological features of that portion
of the district and a tabuIated state
ment showing the average value or the
ores from the different inclines. levels
and slopes of the Boston & Mercur.
Other mines in the same Vicinity and
in the same mineral belt are referred
to and described, and che whole work

information for investors and those who
may be in any way interested in the
great gold camp Of Camp Floyd. the

Mr.. Dignowity has made a careful
and close study of Camp Floyd DIS

IN FROM GOLD MOUNTAIN.
The Splendid Showing in the Nam
Notwithstanding Mine.

c. II. Jacobs, the well-hnown mining
operator. returned yesterday from the
Cold Mountain district, where ne is
developing some promising mining
properties in which he is interested
In speaking of the district Mr.. Jacobs
stated that the outlook for the camp
was very fattering and that he was
more and more impressed with the i'm
nensity and value of its mineral wealth
every time he went there.
According to Mr.. Jacobs the new
strike in the Breckenridge Mammoth
was showing up splendidly with de-
velopment. At the present time there
is a carload of ore from the new dis
covery on the dump which will run
from 81 900 to s., 900 TO the ton in gold.
while the men in the employ of the
owner of the property, James Long, Jr..
are working on a nice body of ore OF
the same character. which would an
dictate that in due time Gold Mountain
will be able to boast of greater than
a Klondihe."
