A Sensational Discovery.

A sensational discovery was made this
week by Roy Ridge on the property of
the Tonopah-G Gold Mountain mining
company, at a point on the west slope
OF Gold Mountain, about a half mile
from the present workings. After re-
moving the slide rock and shale, Mr..
Ridge opened up a ledge 8 feet wide on
the surface, which carries the highest
values ever discovered in that district.
Five feet OF the ledge is very rich, the
ore being full of free gold. An assay OF
an average sample showed values of ST.
0l3 and the 8 feet will probably run from
$500 to $500 a ton. As a consequence of
the new discovery there has been great
activity in the stock of the Tonopah
Gold Mountain during the past week,
about $4,000 shares having changed
hands at an advance of from 8 to 8 cents
a share. The highest price paid was Is
cents, and the stock is now firm at that
6gure.-Miner.

statements which reflected on the man
