-nill Canyon ard
Bullion.
in Western Eureka
County Have Taken
New Lease of
Life.

A correspondent writing to the
Mining World from Beowawe, Eu-
reka County, says of the mining
activity in that section:
Mill Canyon is experiencing a
period of activity this Winter.
Some of the properties have not
been operated for many years, but
with the general revival of mining
in Nevada new life is seen in the
camp and much development work
is in progress and several mines
are shipping their higher grade
ores to the Salt Lake smelters.
Among the most important ship
pers are the Irwin property, operat-
ed by George Montandin, which
has more than IL carloads of ore
ready for shipment; the Goodhugh
& Robinson; and the Marilda and
Nanini. Development work has
been started on the Lewis & Isaac
ground and William Shultes has
resumed work on his 700-foot
tunnels.
III. III. Hunter of Reno has tax
en- a bond of $4,000 on nine
claims belonging to John Rossi.
The two leading companies OPP
Grating in the Bullion district are
the Gold Quartz Mining Company
and the Reliance Mining Company.
The former company has recently
completed commodious buildings
to enable it to carry on its work of
development during the Winter,
Besides doing development work
this company is making shipments
of its higher grade ore to the Salt
Lake shelters.
The Reliance Mining Company,
whose ground adjoins that of the
Gold Quartz Mining Company,
has reached a depth of 11S feet,
showing a l0-foot vein dipping
more nearly perpendicular with
depth and yielding good values in
gold, silver and copper, much of
which is being sacked for ship
ment.
