gold. It s'a smeieing proposition and
it is believed that the smelter at Gard
nerville will be put, into commission
to handle the product from the mine
Mr.. lsLivingstons has spent, the best
part 81 year in this neighborhood
locking over this and other properties
that nave been ,on the market. and A.
nally' concluded that the Mammoth
was the best big proposition that was
offered.
The Raycraft brothers have worked
his mine for the past twenty years,
or have maintained their assessment
work, as they realized that the de-
post was Of exceeding value, owing to
the amount of ore in sight and the
surroundings. 1t has always been
regarded as property that should
demand the attention of men with
plenty of money, as it was not poor
mans claim in any sense of the word.
1t required smelter and facilities Of
handling, that were beyond the means
Of the owners.
Mr. Chartz made a trip to the pro-
perry last week. He went as the at
torney Of the purchasing parties, and
as he has had a great deal of expert
ence in mining and mining ground,
took occasion to look the ground over
carefully. He is of the opinion that it
is a great big proposition. One that
will mean the laying out of money be
fore the returns commence coming in.
He stated, however, that the ledge was
simply immense He was always OF
the opinion that the ledge and crop
pings at Como were the largest on
earth, but when he visited the crop
pings at the Mammoth, he changed
his mind, and now credits that pro
perty as holding the palm. AS to the
values, Mr.. Chartz' did not. state, but
he did say that with the proper ex
penditure of money, that it would b.
a mine and an immense one. He Is Of
the opinion that there is a great fu
ture before the Mammoth and the PEG
pie who have made the purchase have
secured one Of the most valuable pro
perties in, this section Of the West. ,
AS the Mammoth mine does not in
clude all the territory that is in tn
mineralized section, and the fact tina
other interested parties have groun
practically the same. it will mean
great revival in thst section. Sewers
Reno people are interested In groun
