Judse Rays Claims Bonded.

1t is reported from Rhyolite that Judge
Ray sold or bonded the Denver and Ar

price is said to have been 500, 600.
Some ore is being sacked from the rich
strike made within the last fortnight
that will return values higher than any
ever before mined in this section OF Ne
vada. 1t will run somewhere between
$4,000 and $4,000 per ton. This is
coming from the exceptionally rich
streak. Picked specimens assay over
$lOO, 900 per ton and are described as
being nearly half gold. The strike has
created renewed activity in mining and
prospecting in the vicinity and gives ad-

Mr.. Caffney informs THE News that the
Crown Point has added an 16Oacres placer
location, which extends to the Amargosa
river, and two claims, one on the east
and the other on the west of the Origi-
nal Bullfrog mine, to its holdings. The
management is also negotiating for the
purchase of splendidly located claim
on Ladd mountain, and if it is secured
the Crown Point will own a magnifi-
cant group of claims in the Bullfrog dis
trict. Some ore has been found on one
of the claims near the Original Bullfrog.
Mr.. Caffney will be in town several days
before returning south.

Energetic development work has been
commenced on the Combination claim,
recently purchased by DIR. w. T. Liggett,
D. S. Karns and associates. The sur
face is to be systematically prospectcd

open up the ground. The organization
of the Goldfeld- Combination Mining

the ledge at considerable depth, is To-
Gated about 200 feet away from the vein
80 that it will be in no way endangered
by the proximity of large slopes after
ore is taken out.
1t is continual source OF surprise to
mining men and visitors in general, to
see an average panning of the barren
looking shale which has been taken for
long distance along the vein where
opened up by surface trenches.
The Gold Bar.
A 40,foOt shaft has been completed on
the Gold Bar fraction, belonging to the
Gold Bar Mining company, and cross
cut is being driven to the north to cut a
perfect network of veins that have been
prospected on the surface. The crosscut
has reached a point 25 feet from the
shaft and it is expected the first ledge
will be encountered with almost any
round of shots. The prospects for open
ing up several shoots of ore are exceed
ingly bright on this property. The man
agement has refused many applications
for leases, preferring to operate the
property on company account.
The nayflower.
The shaft on the Diamond claim OF
the Mayfower property has reached Il
denth of 40 feet and dtiftint has been
commenced. The shaft was put down
on a 2-foot ledge of quartz. An unusual
feature of the formation is shat the lead
is perfectly vertical and apparently a
true fissure in the granite. Both walls
are granite. Values have been encoun-
tered up to SIS per tom If an ore shoot
is opened up in the ledge it will be OF
the greatest importance in view of the
apparent pershanency of the intrusive
lead.

Strike Near AmarSosa.

There was a report current last evening
in town that strike of more than con-
siderable Importance had been made in
the vicinity of the Original Bullfrog
mine. Samples of the ore shown about
the streets showed the same character
istics as Original ore, although some
what darker in color. Quantities of free
gold were visible. The property upon
which the strike was made could not be
ascertained.
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1905-02-17

Last evening DR.. Benson, one of the
heaviest stockholders of the Bullfrog
Mining company of Nevada, received a
message by telephone from Amargosa
stating that the tunnel on the company's
property had penetrated the ledge and
that splendid body of ore had been dis
closed. Values range between 5000 and
81 800 per ton. The ore body was tapped
at depth of 200 feet, approximately.
This development is of the greatest i'm
portance as it demonstrates great per-
manency in the ore bodies of that par
ticular section of Bullfrog. How large
the shoot is has not been determined.
DIR. Benson's advices were that values
we're improving as crosscutting pre-
gressed.
Reports were received last evening by
telephone from Bullfrog that very i'm
portant discovery of high grade ore had
been made on the Montgomery Edwards
group of claims on Montgomery noun
tain. Montgomery mountain is half
mile east of Ladd mountain. Particu-
lar Importance attaches to the strike as
it extends the mineral zone of this Sec
ton of the Bullfrog district. The ex-
tent of the ore bodies disclosed had not
been determined when the reports were
received, but the richness of the ore al
most equaled anything found in the
