The Weeks Mining News as Reported
by the Miner

1t is reported that J. c. Noble has
bond on the Alexander group of
mines, in the Cerbat section, and that
he will return from the east inside of
the next ten days and begin the active
development of the property.
The Monarch Gold Mining company
whose mines are contiguous to those
of the Pasadena Consolidated, is pre-
pairing to operate on a large scale after
the 4th of July. Eli Hilty, of King
man, will be general manager of the
company.
The mill of the Blue Ridge Mining
company is running its ten stamp mill
to its full capacity and is getting good
results. A cyanide plant for the
handling of the tailings is in contem-
plation and its installation is but a
question of month or so.
The German-American mill, near
Vivian, is working to its full capacity
and is said to be making a high saving
of values. The mill is of ten stamps
capacity and will handle about 50 tons
Of ore daily. o. F.Kuencer is in charge
of the property.
At the 300 level of the Pasadena Con-
solidated mine station is being cut
out and drift will be started. At this
point the mine is showing up big
body of high grade gold ore. The vein
is supposed to be in the same lode as
the Tom Reed and Ben Harrison, own
ed by the Blue Ridge company.
John Boyle and Edward Wyman ar
rived in Kingman from st. Louis the
first of the week. The gentlemen Wis
tied the Vanderbilt mine and examined
the workings of the property. Mr..
Boyle reports that a solid body of ore
is exposed in the drift on the 175
level for eighty feet and will average
better than 500 to the ton. The ore
has an average width of two feet.
f. NJ. Carson, of San Francisco, ar
rived in Kingman Thursday last and
interviewed the people on the subject
of smelter. He proposes to build
plant OF 100 tons capacity at McCon-
nico and is ready to enter into con-
tracts with mine owners for the pur-
chase of all ores that may be offered
for sale. He departed Thursday for
the different camps up the range for
the purpose of making a personal ex-
of the mines and their pro-
ducing possibilities. He was accom-
panied by Barney Perkins.
For the first time in its history the
mill of the Gold Road Mining and Ex-
ploratlon company is being run TO its
full capacity. The mill is capable Of
handling 100 tons Of ore daily and it is
now doing this readily. The installa-
tlon of the six grinding mills and ANAL
gamation on plates makes the work of
the cyanide tanks much less and add a
great deal to their capacity. The mine
is opening up wonderfully on the 600
level and the property is destined to be
one of the greatest gold mines in the
world
c. ID. Pickering, superintendent of
the Yucca Cyanide Mining & Milling
company, came up from the San Fran
cisco mine last week. He reports that
work had to be stopped on the shaft on
account of a larger flow of water than
the pump could handle, but as soon as
The new pump is received work would be
The shaft has reached a
iepth of $50 feet and is in good ore.
The mill is crushing about % tons of
)re daily and making nice product of
cad, silver and gold. A carload of
high grade ore is on the dump and will
pc shipped out with the concentrates.
d. j. Thompson, Colorado mining
nan who was here couple of months
ago and secured an option on the Rosa
Lee group of mines from d. N. Bar
,hodi and Mr.. Nellis, has returned,
,losed the deal and paid the cash for
he property. He proposes to start de-
,elopment work and keep it up. Con-
siderable development work has al
'eady been done. The properties are
ocated about 25 miles southeast of
Mayer. The main values are copper
With some silver and gold. The ore
body is from so to lbs feet in width.
Mr.. Thompson sampled the ledge for
'ver mile and got average values of
'ver IA per cent copper.
