VERY RICH GOLD ORE.
ROCK THAT SHOWS sTREAKS OF
GOLD HALF AN INCH THICK.

A remarkable story comes
from Denver about gold dis
covery on Yellow Jacket creek.
1t is to the effect that a Denver
man has discovered aledge there
which shows virgin gold in large
quantities.
1t is well known that there are
rich deposits of gold in that sec
ton. wilson creek is not far
from yellow Jacket.
The news regarding this dis
covery is brought in an Associat-
ed Press dispatch, which is as
follows
Denver, April 29.-Gold dis
Icoveries near the headwaters of
the Salmon river in Idaho are re-
ported, and presage the opening
of new mining district which
may rival any heretofore dis
covered.
Specimens of extremely rich
ore said to have been found in
THAT region have been brought
to this city by T. NJ. Howell, a
former newspaper man, one of
the pioneers of Cripple Creek
district and well known pros
pector. One piece of float sawed
in twain revealed streak of al
most pure gold half an inch thick
and assayed at the rate of 3645
ounces a ton. The ore is rusty
sugar quartz, mixed with iron
that looks more like coal cinders
and phenomenally rich rock.
Mr.. Howell said that the ore
was found near Yellow Jacket
creek, one of the tributaries of
Salmon river. along which many
millions of dollars worth of plac-
er gold has been found. The dis
ltrict is 125 miles from Redrock.
81 believe that the find," said
Mr.. Howell, ''goes a long way
towards solving the problem OF
the source of the placer gold of
the Idaho streams. This ore is
a porous formation, entirely diff
ferent from the white quartz
veins which have heretofore
been prospected by the placer
) miners of that country in search
/ for the lodges containing golC
> values. Idaho produced ovel
$500, ,0OO, 900 of placer gold, We
there has been comparatively
little gold quartz mining in tha
country.
The ore is remarkably fre
, milling, and, while entirely diff
q ferent from the white quart
: which abounds throughout tn
mountains of Idaho"
/ He reports the climatic condi
. tions there favorable. There ar
: other prospectors out in tina
: field, and a stampede is expecte
> in the early summer when th
= roads to the district are good.
