MOVING The MILL.

MOVING THE MILL.
Consolidated Esmeralda Soon to oe
Running on Their Ore.
H. K. Colcord and Jas. Yerington,
who have lately returned from Haw-
thorne where they nave been inspect
ing the work of laying the pipe for
the new ma. at Pamlico. bring IN
word of good progress being made
in the work. The pipe line is now
within three miles, OF the mill site.
and the new mill is now being haul
ed toward the ground. ~
The bringing in Of the. water is. one
of the largest undertakings that has
gone on in Esmeralda county since
the closing down ofs the Candelaria
mines, and it means more to that Sec
ton about Hawthorne than any move
that has been made in : mining way
fer years, or in fact, since the town
was organized. .ss-,s..,.s.5s Z :. AK
The parties backing the Consoli-
dated Esmeralda are nearly all east
ern men. They, vera told of the Vas.
deposits Of low grade gold ores TINT
are known to exist in the claims, and
they at once organized a company
to handle the proposition The fret
thing to be done was tc bring in wa
ter, This end Of; the work is nearly
completed, and the long stretch If
pine is nearly, all in position.
A forty stamp mill was purchased
in Mono county. The mill had never
turned d wheel, and was in as good
shape as any that could be secured.
This is now being transported to the
mill Site, a. Mr. Yerington has swori
that eight wagons have left the scene
loaded to the guards. The machinery
viii be moved in q rush, as the roads
are good and the mill is now all down
and ready for the teamsters. The sec.
ton in which this property is located
ie favorably situated in regard to
winter climate. and it is believed that
work can be prosecuted throughout
the winter. The chances are very 70,
vorable for bar Of gold bullion from
the new mill early in the year, il nc.
before that time.
The property or claims that the ore
comes from is noted for the rich ores
that have come from it. Some of the
specimen rock is simply wonderful IN
display of richness, while some that
has been extracted was crushed in q
hand mortar, as it was too rich t.
treat with the mill battery. The peo
pie who now have control of the
mines, while ready to work on this
character of ore. do not regard thu
property as q specimen property, bu
rather as q big low grade proposition
They will work over the waste dump
rs they show assay values that will
almost pay for the mill by themselves
At the same time the LaPanta an
Pamlico mines will be thoroughly de
veloped and worked as big prOperti
For several years past the propertis
have been worked by chloriders. VIII
have made considerable money fror
tue leases. In doing this the leaser
have uncovered considerable 10y
grade ore that they could not affo-
to ship, but which the new people
with q mill on the ground can handl
to a big profit to all concerned. Lo'
grade. properties are appealing to tn
monied men more today than do til
high grade specimen mines. This Sol
of q mine is no longer sought by til
investor, as he wishes a property thu
will support milling for certain nul
Der of years and can be figured c
producing results. This is the kind
property the Consolidated Esmerali
people believe they have and Il
many people in this section who a
watching the big development wol
hope that it will prove one of Il
heavy bullion producers of Nevada
