Stansfeld, manager Of the Ajax Mining
company, who invited him to visit the
mine, an offer that was readily accepted.
The vein of the Ajax crosses the main
divide between Montana and Idaho, IL
miles from Salmon City, Idaho, and the
bright galena ore in the vein, rejecting
the light of the afternoon sum- can be
seen some distance away.
The mine was discovered by n party OF
men OF whom Frank Brown Of Butte was
one. The gentlemen located it and gave
II the name Ajax" They held the prop
erty several years and then sold it to the
present owners, ]. T.. Morse Of Dillon and
AL Noyes OF Wisdom.
The mine is I2 miles from the STAINS
field ranch and is about $500 feet above
the valley in which the ranch is located,
its western end line being on the thin
ridge which divides Montana and Idaho.
The hills are composed Of hornblcnde or
granite or syenite, n rock unwelcome TO
the prospector on account OF its extreme
hardness, which makes development work
slow and costly. The vein. rs seen on the
groupings distance of 1900 feet. varies
from TO 20 feet wide in the various
shafts and tunnels on the property and
carries gold and silver values the entire
length.
The returns from the six carloads
shipped from $IS.4o to sJr.2o in gold, ? to
9 ounces In silver and from DO TO sI pcr
cent lead per ton. The orc was taken
from the bottom Of 6o-foot shaft and
was found only in lunches, but it cannot
be considered a bad propositions The
predominating values OF the ore are gold
and silver. The vein matter is principally
quartz, with little brown oxidizcd iron
and tale clay mixed with it. The latter
carries the greater gold values. The en-
tire vein will assay from So to $50 in
gold The owners have purchased ma
chinery for complete mill. which they
intend to erect about $500 feet from the
mine and 1000 feet lower on the hill. A
road is now being graded for the purpose
of getting the machinery to the place
where it is to be set up. TO date $500
has been spent in this work alone.
a sawmll has also been bought and
will be used in saving lumber for the
mine and mill. There is plenty of timber
in the Bitter Root range Of mountains in
which the property is located. The own
ers intend 10 save the lead in the ore and
with this object in view will build small
plant with which TO concentrate the ore.
winch viii be conveyed from the mine to
the plants by means of wire cable. but
whether cars or an endless chain with
bucket attachments will be used has nor
yet been determined. The hill has n
pitch OF from so 10 90 degrees. which will
enable the operators to tunnel the vein
OF the mine at depth Of about 800 feet
by good management the Ajax can be
resolved into fine paying proposition.
Al OF the work is now under the control
ot Mr.. Stansiicld, who went from Butte
