At depth of ninety feet great ore
has been struck in the Rico mine,
owned by Clack aud Lovin. Assays
from this ore run very high in silver
and more than twenty ounces in gold,
while the whole vein at that point will
average $50 ounces silver and three or
four ounces gold. Work has been car
ried on in the property for some time
past and considerable ore has been
hoisted

to be made of that portion OF the mine,
that the big working shaft may be 10.

wonderful ore bodies and when the big

Preaching, But not Practicing.

L. Hoffman, who is promoting the
Chloride Gold mining company, is
telling Colorado newspapers that the
mine owners of Mohave county do not
recognize the virtues contained in the
liberal use of printers ink. Now, as
the leading newspaper of the county,
the MINER fails to see that Mr.. Hof man
and associates differ from the other
mine owners In the way of extending
patronage to the newspapers. The pat
ronage of Mr.. Hoffman's com pany is
extended entirely to the Colorado
newspaper field to the entire exclusion
of the local papers. 1t is easy and
costs little to tell other mine owners
what to do In the way Of promoting
their own and the public's welfare.

down the shaft of the Golden Treasure
mine, at SearchliRht. last Saturday.
He was a skip tender in the mine and
was engaged in loading the car from

down the shaft. Robie was precipi.

John w. Gerritt returned this week
from his mines at the Demp -O'Dea
camp, near Mud SPRING.. He reports
that he has completed the location
work on several claims and that all
appear to carry values in gold. At the
O'Dea Dempsy mines the owners are
taking out large quantities of ore that
will bring 25s per sack in the market.
They have a wonderful showing of this
class OF ore 10 the outcrop and will
soon DO making regular shinment to
the smelter. At least l5,oooS worth of
ore can be taken from this outcrop
without going below the surface. No
mine in the county has better pros
poets for richness and permanency
than this claim aud the owners refuse
to put a price on it at present. A
great many claims have been staked
in the camp and work has shown up
some good ore. A ten foot hole on
claim owned by Mrs. j. N. Parker, of
Chloride, shows vein of good milling
values. 1t is the intention of the
owner to do more work on the mine at
once, in the belief that when the cap
rock has been cut through better val
ues will be found be cath. On the
main vein of the camp the best ore has
been found beneath the spar Gaping.

Alfred Yer Mehr visited the Gold
Road country this week and when he
returned expressed his surprise at the
great growth Of that section during
the past year. He says that the mill
about to be put into service in a few
days at the Gold Road is one of the
most substantial plants in the terri
tory. AT all the mines there is great
activity and everything being done
denotes permanency and stability.
At the Leland the forty stamp mill is
soon to be put in commission crushing
ores from the big mines of the Mohave
Gold mining company, and will be
turning out big bars of bullion N monthly.
st. Charles Brothers are getting
splendid ore in the Midnight mine at
depth of 80 feet, from which depth
level has been run off on the vein IT'S
feet. Big ore was encountered in this
level but no stopping has yet been done,
the owners being anxious to open up
all the ground possible at this time.
At depth of loo feet drift was run
off west loo feet and the vein crosscut
loo feet near the breast. This cross.
cut exposed several big ore bodies car
ry ng good values in gold, silver and
copper. Considerable of the ore will
pay we'll to ship just as it is taken from
the mine without further dressing up,
but the large bodies can be made more
valuable by concentrating out the
gangue before shipping to the smelter.
1t Is reported that there are thousands
of tons of valuable ore in sight in the
property.
Mohave County miner., 1903-04-25


1t Is now asserted that a railroad
from near old Powell will soon be con.
structed to the Leland and Gold Road
camps. The road will leave the main
line of the Santa Fe and circle the
foothills to point below the Leland
camp, thence north to pass into the
Silver Greek country and on to Gold
Road. The fact that Mohave valley
will soon be irrigated and opened to
settlers is one of the leading factors
that decided the promoters of the pro
posed line to begin its construction
this year. 1t will be Of great benefit
to the mining camps on the west side
of the Blue Ridge mountains and will
enable the mine owners to work ore of
a grade that it is impossible to handle
under present conditions. Several
miles OF grade is already made and the
balance of the work will be quite easy,
the only heavy grade being between
Leland and Gold Road.
