of mineral Wherever a resident Of this
country may go he will find that the
fame Of this great mine has preceded
him. A paying mine is the thing that
attracts the attention Of investors to-
section Of country and now that
Mohave county has one that Is truly a
wonder we may look for increased in
vestments in our properties. Let few
more payers be opened UP and the
future prosperity Of the county Is as
sured.
The Needles Eye says that o. p.
Posey, president Of the Gold Road
Mining company, was in that place
Sunday evening, having come down
from the mine on his way to Los An
geles. Accompanying him was Henry
Lovin and in their possession they had
a bar Of bullion valued at $4,000, the
result of cleanup of about two weeks.
The bullion was shipped by Wells
Fargo company to the government mint
at San Francisco.
The Miner also says that a mining
man who has just returned from the
Pilgrim camp states that the Dempsey
O'Dea mines in Mohave county, Ari-
zona, owned by John Brockman and
others of Los Angeles, show wonderful
ore values and that the veins are really
the best he has seen in the territory
The Commonwealth company. having
the mines under bond. is working
quite a force of men and is crossing
the vein to the hanging wah. If the
ore at thai point Is as rich as at the
100 level the property will be taken
over without doubt. The company Is
one of the wealthiest concerns in the
territory and Is capable of putting the
mines in good shape for outputting
ores.
Rich Pacers Bought
The Nogales Oasis says that l.. Lind
say, the well-known mining operator,
formerly residing in Nogales, but now
residing in Los Angeles, and Mr.. Nc
Kay of that city have taken over the
Sandoval concession, embracing the
famously rich Boludo gold placer
mines, which lie about two and one
half miles northwest from FL Trio, in
the Altar district of Sonora, and are
projecting plans for their operation,
with modern machinery, upon an eX-
tensive scale. The Boludo placers were
very rich upon the surface, and the
ground has been worked over and over
again with dry washers, always with
good results The surface ground Is
about fifteen feet in depth. Below that
is a stratum of conglomerate, which
was supposed to be the bed rock, but
recent developments by means of
shafts demonstrated that underneath
| lie several other pay strata that can
be made to yield handsomely. About
| fifteen feet below the supposed bed
rock there has been cut another
stratum of different kind of con-
glomerate five to six feet in thickness
that yields SIS to 500 per ton gold.
