Mercur, Jan. 2S.-When, a year ago.
the Gold Dust company decided to
cease operations for a time, the work
ings We're at a point where break
occurred in the formation, and to the
uninitiated it seemed as if the end of
the ore body was reached. When work
was again commenced. two drifts were
started from the main incline about
100 feet apart, and before long had
crossed the break and were in large
body of ore carrying milling values.
In the upper drift values were change
able for a considerable distance, but
is now in body of six feet of good
milling ore. In the lower drift the ore
has continued about the sG-ne, carry
ing So to So per ton, and has now pen
etrated a distance Of 40 feet in the
ore. There is absolutely no question as
to the ability of the company to have
enough ore in sight for a mill before
summer Mr. Hannahs is an expert
enced miner and is bringing the prop
erty to the front in a similar manner

GOLD IN THE GROW.
Large Body of Fine Ore Struck In
the Rand Tunnel.


DR.. Clarence Barrett, manager of the
Grow Mining company, operating in
the West Mountain district, north of
Bingham, has received returns from
twenty samples taken from the new
strike in Rand tunnel, which run from
81 to $15.75 in gold. The company mas
already eXDende. upwards of $4,000 in
the exploration and development or the
property most of which has gone into
the big Rand tunnel, which has at last
reached the vein at a distance OF AS
feet from its mouth, and is now over
four feet into the vein.
The ore is an iron oxide, very sort,
and it is believed that it can be worked
at the nominal cost of 80 cents per ton
by the most up-to-date methods.
Manager Barrett has also an ade-
quate water supply within a mile of the
property, and he states that motive
power viii be brought straight TO the
mine on wires strung from Salt Lake,
which viii also supply light for the mill
which it is the intention TO erect at
once, and he has ample funds at his
disposal for the building Of the olant
There is but little doubt, now that
DR.. Barrett has demonstrated the value
of the ore zone in that end Of the dis
trict north of Bingham, that other
properties which have only been pros
pected in a half-hearted way will be
worked for the velvet" and that the
present year will see a new and pros
porous camp on Golconda mountain.

A big mining deal was consummated
in this city yesterday, the transaction
peing the sale and transfer to Glenn r.
Boutwell,, r. E. McConaugny and e. =.
JENKINS of Up 900 out of the 100000
shares embraced in the capitalization
of the Congor Gold & Copper Mining
company, the price paid fer the same
being on a basis of $4,000 for the en-
tire property.
The holdings of the Congor company
include a number Of claims in Spring
gulch in the Dalton & Lark country,
Bingham, and 1t is regarded as one Of
the coming big copper and gold pro-
ducerS of the camp. c.. q. Hall. the

ing d large block Of the stock of the
asSocie ton.
The company was reorganiZed yeSter-
day after the title had passed ard Mr..
Boutwell, was elected president Of the
organization. while Mr. AIcConaughY
was installed as secretary and Mr.. Jen-
kins found place ON the board Oh
directors.
In the development of the Congor fine
bodies of high-grade copper ore have
been blocked out in the workings OF the
property, from which occasional ship
mentS have been made TO the SdlL Lake
market and in addition to this show
ing OF marketable mineral good bodies
of second-class copper ore have been
exposed.
The formation Of the Congor is al
most identical with that Of the High
land Boy. which is accounted rs beng
one of tEe greatest copper mines IN the
world, as the Gaping of the Vein con-
sists of large deposit of oxidized gold
ore which turns to base mineral and
finally into copper as depth is attained,
and Il is the intention OF the company
TO open the mine in a systematic and
extensive manner with tha expectation
that in time ii VIII prove 20 be for
midable rival OF the Highland Boy as
Gar as extensive zones of copper are
concerned, and mining men o. expert
ence who have lnspected the ground
are Of til opinion that n time this Will
make d wonderful record as a producer
OF the red metal.
From this on the Cong0r viii be
worked with greater activity than ever
before and 10 facilitate operations the
mine Will Immediately be equipped with

THE TRIUMPH OUTLOOK.
Bunches of Eigh-grade Ore Disclosed
On the 1SO-foot Level.

Bunches Of High-grade Ore Disclosed
On the 1SO-foot Level.
For the past few months work has
been energeticaIly pushed in the devel-
opment Of the property of the Triumph
Mining company IN Tintic district in
the immediate vicinity of some of the
bonanza propositions in that end of the
camp, and it is learned that the show
ing is most encouraging as in the drift
from the bottom Of the 1S0-foot shaft,
in a very large ledge of quartz, high
galena ore is beginning TO make It's
appearance in punches, and the lndlca-
tions are most favorable for the near
presence of a fine body OF shipping
mineral. and, as a matter of fact. the
company would not be surprised any
day to hear that an important discov-
cry had been made in the mine.
The Triumph was worked many years
ago by John Keppis. deceased, who
made numerous consignments to the
Salt Lake market of ore which sold on
controls showing values of 100 ounces
in silver to the ton as well as high in
galena.
When the Triumph company took
hold of the mine it started to drift on
the vein at the 100-foot level and en-
countered a 15-inch body of ore which
ran as high as 262 and 315 ounces silver
and excellent values in lead TO the ton,
and several shipments were made from
this portion of the mine before il was
decided to. go deeper and then drift
under the upper workings with the eX-
pectation of striking the ore zones
where they would naturally be larger
and from all accounts d fair measure
OF success is attending exploitation in
this line
