Over conditions at Tonopah gener
ally. and with the behavior Of salt
Lake interests in that Nevada camp
in particular, Ed Mead, secretary Of
the Carisa and other companies, re-
turned from there yesterday very
much pleased. The main Mizpah
ledge at a depth of 500 feet, is as
it il in the levels above, from which
ores Of the value of so many
millions we're derived, while the
extremes along the strike of the vein
are no less than 1900 feet apart, with
ore exposed the entire distance. Mr..
Mead says that a north and south
zone which has been penetrated to
the north for eighty,tive feet and to
the east for over 100 feet without
disclosing any walls reveals an aver
age of $50 per ton, and appears to
to the expert talent with all the
force of veritable Homestake, On
the 400 level of the Valley View, al
most under the camps main thor
ouhfare, the management has opened
up ore which affords an average of
$500 per ton, while twenty feet south
is ledge id the same territory which
shows values ranging from S455 to
$4,000 per ton. Yet third ledge in
Valley View ground reveals an aver
age of 5000, with four feet of this
class of ore. In addition to what has
already been developed by it, the
Touopah and Salt Lake company APP
pears to be in line to catch some of
these lodges on their strike to the
west At depth of 800 feet in the
Desert Queen a six-foot vein has just
been opened up, while the strike in
the Montana Tonopah, so much of
which is held in Zion, has developed
into the sensation of the hour, some
of the ores showing over 1000 ounces
silver and $3.50 gold per ton.
At the Halifax Group, owned by |
Keith q Kearns, the new hoist has
been started up, with everything to
make the making Of mine in the
ground, while the power proposition of
the camp will soon have been settled
by the bringing in of 5000 horse
power from Owens river, distance
of eighty miles from Tonopah
On Gold mountain several good |
propositions are being developed,
with some of the ore running very
high in gold, while on the Ray 4
o Brien shaft at Ray the owners have
uncovered eighteen inches Of ore that
averages 40 per cent lead and over
400 ounces silver per ton Mr. Mead |
reports over forty shafts now going
down in the camp, while over at Han
napah many locations have been
made and much activity is promised
