ed the world with the richness of the |
Southern portion of Nevadas great
mineral zone; but the central portion,
has not been forgotten by those who
know its merits.
There is now more legitimate min
ing going on in this part of the State
than at any time in twenty years, and
very much more than people realize.
True, there is no noise, no advertising,
no boom; but local capital has been
quietly gathering in valuable prop
critics and making preliminary prep
arations for developing and working
the same, as will be seen by the fol-
lowing review of what has been done
in the past two or three years.
The Winters property, which is
a lead-silver mine, and big producer
thirty years ago. has been opened up
ahd equipped with a complete con-
centrating and cyanide plant, don't
owe anybody cent, and is ready to
commence the summer run next week.
In addition to the lead-silver vein, an
exceedingly rich gold ledge was re-
Gently discovered, less than half mile
of the mill that bids fair to equal any
thing found in Goldfield. Steam
power is used, and the deep snow pre-
vents hauiing ore during winter
months; but electric power, and
tramway will obviate all present diff
ficulties and admit of as cheap mining
and milling as any property on the
Coast.
The Buckeye Placers, four or five
miles from the Winters property, is
worked every summer as long as the
limited supply of water will admit,
and with cheap electric power to
pump the water back and use it over
again and again as in several places in
Oregon and elsewhere, these mines
could be worked six or seven months
every year. The richness of these
placers has never been questioned;
but the only available supply of water
is in Alpine county, from whence it
would have to be piped a distance of
over twenty miles.
The Monarch mine, near where rich
gold ore was discovered by Zirn
several years ago, has, within the past
few months, been equipped with a
five-stamp steam mill and is now
ready for operation.
The old Mammoth vein crops out
boldly for over a mile, has been devel-
oped by tunnel to the depth of over
800 feet and shows a well defined vein
of ore from 40 to 100 feet wide that
assays from s. to slo0 per ton in gold
and silver Portions of this vein has
yielded about $50 per ton in the Gus
tom mills of Silver City; but the
greater portion of the ore carries an
timony which interferes with free
milling and will PROBABLY required a
concentrating and smelling process
This tunnel developed about 30 miners 5
inches of water, ample for a large
concentrating plant at the mine, which
with the proposed electric power plant
only four or five miles distant, seems
to leave obstacle except securing cap
ital to erect the required plant.

sidered a good one on both sides.
Mrs Baker who owned the property,
asked $4,000 for it, the trustees thus
realizing $1,000 for the graded
school property which the new owner
believes can be handled to better
advantage. The Burgwyn factory
building alone cost over $12, 900.

expense it can be put in splendid con-
dition for school purposes, an orna-
