ing Good Gold Values

II is no easy matter to keep track
Of all the new finds, or the new camp:
that are being opened up in suthwest.
ern Nevada these days, but that they
are being discovered right along there
il no question. A prominent mining
engineer of large experience stated last
winter in an interview published in
the News, that there was a mine or
two in every knoll or ridge in this
section of the state, and his prediction
is being borne out.
The latest to attract the attention of
the mining men of this district is
Camp Wellington, situated some
twenty-seven miles east of Goldfald
and almost seven miles from the -four
ishing camp of Gold Crater. Late last
fall prospectors found rich feat rock
an this district and staked out a group
of claims, doing location work, sur
viewing and recording. Early this
spring they began a systematic search
along the outcrop of the vein for the
point from which the rich float had
been broken. After several weeks of
prospecting they were rewarded by
finding places that PANIED well, and
that assayed close to $4,000. At no
point had they reached a depth to ex-
coed eight feet, yet they were con-
fronted with the fact that to success
fully develop and operate their prop
critics it would require a considerable
amount of capital to sink shafts and
equip with necessary hoist machinery.
1t was at this opportune moment
that The Wellington Associations
"Man on the Ground" put in his ap-
pearance.
Mr.. w. w. Degge, President of the
Association, and Mr.. Sam1 G.. Knott,
representing it in Goldfeld, visited the
property. They made a thorough and
SYSTEMATIC investigation, taking their
own samples, % on the first visit COW

gold, and after being thoroughly con-
WINGED that they had the making of
a great mine, the property was bought
and paid for and a systematic course
OF development begun.
The splendid result of this develop
ment to date can best be shown by the
letters Of the Superintendent, Mr..
Sam'1 G.. Knott, to the President, be-
ginning with a report on the properties
and then telling the exact conditions as
the work progressed. These letters
were written to tell the management
the exact conditions as they existed,
and may therefore be accepted as
entirely accurate.

On my return from Goldfeld I pub
lished an account of my trip, from
which I take the following paragraphs
which are appropriate to this article.

Because rich ore and quantities of
it have been found in southern Nevada,
and because it is generally recognized
that unknown quantities will yet be
found, because there is a "genuine"
is the reason there is a counterfeit.
The very fact that there are so many
"hot air fakes'' is a pretty good evil
dence that they are counterfeltlng
something good. The gold fields of
southern Nevada present magnificent
opportunities for making vast fortunes
by honest development, and because of
this they offer the best opportunities
for the wild cat and fraudulent oper-
4 ator. Take a fair chance in Goldfeld,
/ BUT be sure you are getting a fair run
for your money. Don't invest blindly
in hope that luck will strike you, the
chances are all against you. Find out
positively that the company you pro-
pose to invest in owns the property it
is talking about, and that there is SUBJ
%stantial reasons for believing that it
can be developed into a paying mine;
n don't speculate in the salo Of stocks.
Buy treasury stock to help develop a
good property; don't buy pool stock
from cut rate brokers. Such purchases
don't help to ~develope the property,
and if you gamble with cut rate brok-
ers' stocks you deserve to lose your
money and should receive no sympathy
when you lose, as you surely will.
Goldfeld is a wonderful camp. Be-
Png the first discovered it has naturally
Pnonopolized the center of the stage
But since the discovery of Goldfeld, a
vast number of p~rospectors, and a
goodly number of prospecting and pro-
noting companies are securing the
aesert and it is more than probable
nat many new camps just as good as
roldheld will be opened up. Already

THE WELLINGTON OPENING UP
RICH ORE.
Goldfeld, New, June IL, 1905.

Goldfeld, New, June IL, 1905.
Mr.. w. w. Degge, Boulder, Colo.
Dear Sir:-Have Just got camp es-
tablished and commenced on shaft. We
are surveying our claims and / feel
that We are getting down to business.
The prospecting that O'Brien has
done, c~orroborated by my own pros
pecting, has changed my plans regard
ing the first prospect shaft, and I have
gone about 500 feet east of the open
cut where the boys got their richest
and best ore to start the shaft.
While prospecting and panning in
one of the cuts below the water-hole
/ found som of the very best pan
ming of richest ore that / have yet
seen on the property; in fact it is
about al rich as we can expect to
find. With a few exceptions it is
as rich as anything found at or neal
the surface in the Goldfeld District,
and coming as it does from this point
ore body being found here with some
depth.
Finished surveying three more
claims yesterday. We now have 200
feet surveyed on the large vein. 7
have kept quiet about our great find
here until we have gathered up all the
ground we needed.
Ny advice is: Do not sell one share
of stock for less than 10c a share. 1t
is worth it. You can tell any of our
Boulder friends that I consider this
a cinch, and a good purchase at Zoe
a share. We will make it worth soc
in six months.
Yours truly.

RICH GOLD ORE FROM YELLING.
TON.


Goldfeld, New, June 9, 1905.
Mr.. w. w. Degge, Boulder. Colo.
Dear Sir:-I have Just put up a
small sack of specimens from the point
just below the water-hole, in one of
the open cuts, which / will express to
you. Have finished surveying two
more claims. I want to tell you one
thing more: If there is a mine to be
made yet. in Goldfeld, we certainly
have it.
| am sure after YOU look over those
specimens you will think so too. They
are certainly fine, every piece shows
the free gold. One piece broke. j
have tied it together and you can see
how X matches and how the gold
goes right through the piece. This is
one of the best pieces of ore / have
seen in the district, barring none of
the big mines. An assay on either of
those pieces would run way up into
the thousands. This find is the direct
cause of my changing the shaft. and
| feel sure we have gotten even a
better point, and will get quicker re-
suits. Some of the paintings / got
were simply fine. l guess / did not
make my report strong enough. The
more | investigate this ledge material,
the more | am convinced we have a
sure winner.
/ am going to have Tom and Jack
do a little prosecuting to prove one
of the streaks that run down close to
the shaft. There is a fair chance to
strike a paying vein wei there.
Not a day has passed since we came
out but what two or three outfits
have passed our camp just east of
us to do their work or prospecting.
The surveyor told me tonight that
this is the very best unproven dis
trict that he has yet seen, and he has
been pretty well all over the district
for thirty or forty miles of Goldfeld.
Yours truly,

Mr.. w. w. Degge, Boulder, Colorado.
Ny Dear Sir:-While on a recent
trip to the Gold Crater district l had
an opportunity to lock over the prop
erty of the Wellington Association and
the development to date gives prom
Use of a mine of very great magnitude.
The formation and the conditions in
connection with the ore occurrences
in this property are practically ident-
zeal with those of the best portions of
the Goldfeld district. While the sur
face showing both as to quality and
value is fully equal to anything ] have
seen in this region.
The work MI. Knott is doing
on the property is the most business
like piece of development work that I
have seen in the outlying camps.

MI. w. w. Degge, Boulder, Colorado.
Dear Sir:-Agreeable to your re-
quest, l herewith submit you my re-
port on the Wellington Goldfeld Group
of Mining Claims situated in the Wei
lington Mining District, County of
Nye, State of Nevada.
Location.
The claims constituting this group
are situated about twenty-five miles
east of the town of Goldfeld, about
the same distance from the Camp of
Tonopah, located about six miles east
of the Camp of Gold Crater, fifteen
miles east of Stonewall Springs and
living in a direct line between the
town of Goldfeld and the now famous
Kawich range.
Geology.
The general geological formation of
this section is identical with Gold
field District, and is extremely favor
able for rich mineral deposits of
lasting and permanent character with
depth, and more particularly carries
the same general surface indications
as the group of rich producers COM
prising the Florence, Combination and
January mines and situated in the
heart of the Goldfeld Mining District.
That this section under consideration
has undergone a number of eruptive
epochs is plainly visible, each one be-
ing clearly defined and each has UNI
doubtedly carried it's own influence
upon the gold bearing veins and lodges
that ~traverses through the above men
toned group of claims. These condi-
tions are visible where the erosiohe
have not been complete and where the
floods of centuries have cut channel.

sure veins which are formed in the in
~trusive dikes of quartz and porphyry
living beneath, the values being chief

phyry adjacent.
Several of these large quartz veins
traverses through this section and can
be traced the entire length of the ter
ritory covered by this group of claims,
and at several points standing boldly
above the surrounding Lode Porphy-
ry' formation several feet.
