MINING B00Mj IN
M0nAVE SECTION
ORE RUNNING $500 TO THE TON.
RICH SILVER STRIKE is RE-
PORTED.

The Chloride Gold Mining company
has two cars of ore piled up at the
Chloride depot awaiting shipment to
the smelter. Now that better treat.
ment and freight rate is in eject. the
ore will be sent TO rward at once.
heretofore Mr.. Hoffman had to pay a
freight and treatment rate on his ore
OF $21 per ton. 1t is probable that the
some ore will % be handled for
about $S per ton. The ore is desirable,
carrying both lead and iron in excess
OF SILICA. The Samoan mine, from
which the ore is taken, is showing
nice bodies of rich ore in all the open
ings.
The P. and A. company has struck
the old Conner ore shoot on the 500
loot level. The ore is rich and the
vein at this point is fully four feet in
width Of solid ore. No ore has ever
g found in the Conner ground on
his level, and the opening up of this
body is causing great joy among the
shareholders of the corporation. The
ore from the Conner mine was milled
at the Cerbat mill and gives results of
nearly $500 to the ton.
e. ID. Pickering arrived in Kingman
Thursday last, and departed the same
day to Gold Road, where he will make
an examination of the big COMPRISING
plant at the Gold Road mine. 1t is
the intention OF Mr.. Pickering to in
stall a large compressor plant at the
san Francisco mine, to take the place
or the electric plant now in use. The
mine is opening up wonderfully, and
the ore taken from the lower workings
is the best ever produced by the prop.
erty.
H.. ID. Godshall and wife came I'D
from Needles on Thursday last, and
went out to Stockton Hill. The smell
ter at Needles is being remodeled, but
IL is hardly probable that it will go
commission before the list of Jan
uary next. Work on the Stockton
Hill mines will be pushed along as
last as possible, and the ore piled up
await the installation of a reduc-
tlon plant on the property.
AT the Keystone Mine, Mineral
Park, a large tonnage of ore is on thei
nump awaiting shipment to the smell
Ter This ore is the richest ever taken
from the mine, being almost ruby sill
yer, carrying good values in gold. The
streak is about six inches in width.

The ore body will be tapped from the

put to work.
The mill at Pyramid Rock is run
ming smoothly on Catherine ore, and
good results are being obtained.

j. w. Jackson arrived in Kingman I
Wednesday evening from the Big
sandy, with another shipment of tung-
ten ore. The combined weight of the
Wo shipments is over 700 pounds, val
led at $1,000. The wne of the
roperty now has an arastra and jig
n operation, and are getting out a
reat deal of ore. The main work is
n the big quartz dixie on the summit I
I the range, and the best ore is found I
mbedded in mica. The metal has to I
