A STRIKE II PINE NUT.
Mr.. Gray, the Veteran Prospsctor,
Has a Two-foot Ledge Of Gold Gre.

Has a Two-foot Ledge Of Gold Gre.
4. Z. Gray, the well known miner
and prospector, who has tramped over
the Pine Nut hills for the last twenty
five years or more, has made another
find which promises to exceed in value
any discovery ever made in the Pine
Nut mountains. Mr.. Gray has had ex-
perience enough to know good ore
when he sees it, and says he believes
the new mine is BY far the best one
ever found in Douglas county. And it
is mine, for he has already taken out
twelve or fifteen tons of so ore from
fifteen-foot tunnel or the ledge, and
there IL large quantity of the same
character OF rock in sight
Mr.. Gray located the same ground
years ago and took out fifteen tons of
ore which milled S35 ton, but he ap-
parently found spur of the main
ledge at that time and it sspinehedu
out. Recently Mr.. E. J. Kelly of Gard
nerville and Mr.. Gray relocated the
ground and the above discovery is the
result. Mr.. Kelly came in from the
mine last Sunday and brought in some
of the rock. 1t is decomposed quartz
of rusty brown color in which specks
of gold can occasionally be seen with
the naked eye. It is similar to much
of the ore found in that district and an
old miner like Mr.. Cray can judge
very accurately what it is worth. He
thinks that the entire body of the two
foot ledge will average $40 per ton.
He has tested it in many places and
found that every portion of the ledge
carries gold.
The milne is situated one and a half
miles northwest Of South Camp, across
the head o. Burbank canyon. The
ledge runs southeast and northwest
and pitches with the canyon. The
footwall is black porphyry and the
hanging wall is cyanite. Both are well
defined and the ledge gives every in
dcation of permanenee. In fact, every
prospect pleases, and Mr.. Gray, who is
never over confident is feeling very
cheerful.
The Pine Nut mountains, covering
an area in this county of over 800 square
miles, show every evidence of great
mineral wealth, and many claims have
been located and worked on the sur
face and many thousands of dollars in
gold have been taken out The Will
lard & Mcdonald mine at the Noun
tain House, only few miles from the
new discovery, has produced in the
neighborhood of $50, COO. Many other
claims, including the mines at South
Camp, the Buckeye plaeers, the Win
tiers mine, the Vim. Zirn strike and
hundreds of discoveries of pockets
and small lodges have added to the
output of the district. For over thirty
years this distrist has produced an
nually some thousands of dollars in
gold, all of which has been obtained by
prospectors VINO have run over the
ground in a superficial manner. Per-
haps this new discovery will open the
eyes of mining men to the excellent
opportunities for investment in Pine
Nut. II so, we may expect to see big,
lively, bullion-producing camp there
in the near future.
From all we can learn, Mr.. Gray's
new discovery gives every promise of
becoming permanent bonanza. Pay
rock was discovered on the surface
and the owners have found nothing
else as far as the ledge has been pros
pected.
