nessee, Elkhart, Empire, Samoan,
Lucky Boy, Minnesota and Connor,
Pinkhan, Sunlight, Tuckahoe, Payroll,
Altata, and Midnight. Many of these
mines have produced hundreds of
thousands of dollars in gold, silver and
lead. The Lucky Boy, Samoan, Sun
light and several others of these mines
have produced splendid values in gold
and are still producing largely of the
yellow metal. At Mineral Park, the
Keystone, Setting Sun, King, Queen
Bee, Star, Rural and Buckeye have
been the large producers of gold and
silver ores. In the first days of the
Keystone some of the richest gold ore
ever found in this county was taken
from the surface ores. Many of these
mines are producing today and are
good for many years to come.
Layne Springs has some great mines,
notably the Nighthawk, Alpha and
Gold. The Nighthswk has produced
thousands of dollars in gold, although
worked rs a silver mine, while the
Alpha and Gold have been producers
of the metal to some extent.
Orc Plata, in Todd Basin, has been a
great producer for more than thirty
years aud today has milling plant in
operation and producing concentrates

has been one of the factors in the
mining history of the county. Sur
rounding it are number of good
properties, the Silver, Prosperity,
Blackfoot, Little Boy, Primrose, Hill
side, Man aud others.
In Union Basin are the Green Lin.
net, Tub, Suffolk aud Climax. OF
these mines the Climax is the only
one now being operated and it is pro
ducing rich gold and copper ores.
At the Paymaster, in the basin to
the south of Union, is the old Pay
master mine, now working about doZ-
en- men and making regular shipments
of ore to the smelter.
At Cerbat there are a mum Der of
mines that have produced thousands
of dollars in gold. Possibly the iarg
est producer of the section is the
Golden Gem, with a production of
several hundred thousand dollars to
its credit The Cerbat follows the
Cen in the matter of production and
is rated as one of the great mines of
the county. The Little Flores has al
so been big producer, but has not
been worked for number of years
past. Scattered around the gulches
debouchiUg into the Cerbat Canyon are
many good prospects and some that
have passed the prospect period. The
Twins, Blue Lode and Cham pion have
produced largely in lead, gold and sill
yer and have been quoted among the |
best of the mines of that section. w. |
q. Campbell and Jack Little are all o
owners of splendid prospects ia that |
country. John Barry's Gold Nugget
is one of the mines now being worked |
on with fiattering results. This mine
was one of the earliest locations of the |
camp and gave mp very rich ores. At
the present time great values are being |
obtained in the mine. The Twiggs
mines have Dig veins and carry some
good ores. The Vanderbilt has been
worked by chloriders for many years
and no one has ever failed to get big |
results. 1t has been prospected to con-
siderable depth and hundreds of tons
have been chilled from it.
At Stockton Hill the mines carry
values in gold and silver, silver pre-.
dominating to a large extent. The |
Cupel has been the largest producer
of the camp, more than 50J,0)OS being
credited to 1t. The Moonbeam, Little
Chief, the Grey group, the Star Span.
gled Banner, Infallible, Brown, De la
Fountaine, Earl, Treasure Hill, SO and
many other mines have produced
largely in the past 25 years and are
still able to produce thousands of dol.
lars annually. The Prince George is
the one i'm nense vein Of the camp,
being nearly 80 feet between walls and
produced 10 excess of 1OO,OO0s. Many
of these veins have been just skinned
and a small amount invested in judic-
ious work would bring great results.
The G. o. d. has probably produced
more than any other single mine in
