THE WELLINGTON OPENING UP
RICH ORE.
Goidfeld, New, June II, 1905.

UOtuueius NeNy Jun6 II, ASOJ.
Mr.. w. w. Degge, Boulder, Colo.
Dear Sir:-Have just got camp es-
tatlished and commenced on shaft. We
are surveying our claims and / feel
that we are getting down to business.
The prospecting that O'Drien has
done, corroborated by my own pros
pecting. has changed my plans regard
ing the first prospect shaft, and I have
rome about 500 feet east of the open
cut where the boys got their richest
and hest ore to start the shaft.
While prospecting and panaing in
one of the cuts below the w.ter-hole
/ found some of the very best pan
ming of richest ore that l have yet
seen on the property; in fact it is
about as rich as we can expect to
find. With a few exceptions it is
as rich as anything found at or near
the surface in the Goldfeld District,
and coming as it does from this point
it makes me feel confident of a big
ore body being found here with some
little depth.
Finished surveying three more
claimsyesterday. We now have 200
feet surveyed on the large vein. ]
have kept quiet about our great find
here until we have gathered up all the
ground we needed.
My advice is: Do not sell one share
of stock for less than 10c a share. II
is worth it. You can tell any Of our
Boulder friends that / consider this
a cinch, and a good purchase at Toe
a share. We will make it worth soc
in six months.

Location.

The claims constituting this group
are situated about twenty-five miles
east of the town of Goldfeld, about
the same distance from the Camp of
Tonopah, located about six miles east
of the Camp of Gold Crater, fifteen
miles east of Stonewall Springs and
lying in a direct line between the
town of Goldfeld and the now famous
Kawieh range.
Geology.
The general geological formation of
| this section is identical with Gold
field District, and is extremely favor
able for rich mineral deposits of
lasting and permanent character with
depth, and more particularly carries
the same general surface indications
as the group of rich producers com
prising the Florence, Combination and
January mines and situated in the
heart Of the Goldfeld Mining District.
That this section under consideration
has undergone a number OF eruptlve
epochs is plainly visible, each one be-
ing clearly defined and each has I'M
doubtedly carried it's own influence
upon the gold bearing veins and lodges
that traverses through the above men
toned group of claims. These condi-
tions are visible where the erosions
have not been complete and where the
floods of centuries have cut channels
through the latter formations showing
clearly the defined stratas of the
later flows of volcanic matter, and
from which the mineral values have
been leached and deposited IN the rs
sure veins which are formed in the in
|trusive dikes of quartz and porphyry
lying beneath, the values being chief
Inv contained in the quartz and talcous
seams and quite frequently IN the por-
phyry adjacent.
Several of these large quartz veins
traverses through this section m can
be traced the entire length Of the ter
ritory covered by this group of claims,
and at several points standing boldly
above the surrounding Lode Porphy-
ry' formation several feet.
at Or near the surface the ores are

RICH GOLD ORE FROM YELLING
TON.

ION.
Gnldfeld, New, June 9, 1905.
Mr.. w. w. Degge, Boulder, Colo.
Dear Sir:-I have just put up a
small sack of specimens from the point
Just below the wster-hole, in one of
the open cuts, which ] will express to
you. Have finished surveying two
more claims. / want to tell you one
thing more: If there is a mine to be
made yet in Goldfeld, we certainly
have it.
| am sure after you look over those
specimens you will think so too. They
are certainly fine, every piece shows
the free gold. One piece broke. ]
have tied it together and you can see
how it matches and how the gold
goes right through the piece. This is
one of the best pieces of ore / have
seen in the district, barring none of
the big mines. An assay IN either of
those pieces would run way up into
the thousands. This find is the direct
cause of my changing the shaft, and
| feel sure we have gotten even a
better point, and will get quicker re-
suits. Some of the paintings l got
were simply fine. / guess / did not
make my report strong enough. The
more | investigate this ledge material,
the more / am convinced we have n
sure winner.
/ am going to have Tom and Jack
do a little prosecuting to prove one
of the streaks hat run down close to
the shaft. There is a fair chance to
strike a paying vein over there.
Not a day has passed since we came
out but what two or three outfits
have passed our camp just east of
us to do their work or prospecting.
The surveyor told me tonight that
this is the very best unproven dis
trict that he has yet seen, and he has
been pretty well all over the district
for thirty or forty miles of Goldfeld.
Yours truly,
