NINE OPERATION
AT GOLD MOUNTAIN
Stacking High Grade Gold Ore at the
TOnOpah.G Gold Mountain.

The Tonopah-Gold Mountain Min
ing company has begun breaking out
shipping ore from the Monte Cristo
claim. That which is being sacked
runs up in values to the figure of
$500 per ton. Some samples contrib
uted to the BONANZA mineral cabinet
by Manager Runge, strongly resem-
bles early products Of the noted
Standard mine at Bodie. From the
Midway claim ore is being extracted
that will work $85 per ton, there be-
ing about twenty tons on the dump
AS this is susceptible of close work
ing by crushing and further treat
ment by cyanide process. The com
pany will store the necessary output
until local reduction works shall have
gotten into commission. The tun-
mel into Gold Mountain is about $50
feet, in mineralized formation, and
is expected to strike the ledge at
almost any time The returns Of ore
shipments will meet development ex-
pense from now on.

EIectro-Gcodetic Mining Co.

The Electro Geodetic Mining Co.
VIII shortly commence work on a
piece OF property which il is at pres
ent negotiating for as a result OF
very favorable surveys made with
the Mineral Finder owned by the
company. This company has made
three surveys in this camp, in two
of which ore has been struck as out
lined by the survey One is the
Mon tana -Tonopah and the other the
King-Tonopah. The third survey
was made for the Mcnamara, and as
soon as the requisite depth is reached
a ledge of rich ore viii be encount-
cred which the instrument located.
In view of what it actually has done
in the cases above mentioned, the
Mcnamara will soon be added to the
list of mines with shipping ore.
Mr. j. H. Dockweiler, the manager
of the Tonopah agency of said com
pany, has, after very extensive ex-
animation, selected a piece of ground
upon which shaft will be sunk to
tap the ore located with the Mineral
Finder. This work will be very
closely watched by representative
mining men operating here, owing
to the faith of the company in back
ing its survey by sinking on prop.
erty of its own. Should the com.
pany strike it rich, and it's manager
is most sanguine of that fact, and
especially in view of what has al.
ready been accomplished with the in.
strument in this camp, many stand
ready to have surveys made for
them In this connection the arrival
here of Mr. ]. +. Church, the secre.
tary of the home company, whose
office is in Los Angeles, can be taken
as straw to show which way the
wind blows.

The shaft is going down from the
60 foot point to-day, having passed
through the ledge in its vertical
course, The dip Of the latter, how
ever, is so slight that at the 100
level a crosscut of not more than 20
feet will cut it again. The company
has put on forces at the ledge out
crop on the Hi You claim and also
on the Jones or "Tenderfoot" ledge,
both of which are making q very
