THE BULLFROG DISTRICT
The Denver is a WhaIe--Other Good News Recorded by the
Miner and Herald
GOLD BAR

Work was started on Wednesday in
driving a second erosscut from the
lower level of the Gold Bar workings.
The north drift is in IFS feet and it is
at this point that Superintendent Be /
ford started the crosscut, which will
be driven, shows better ore than has
ever before been found in any consi J
cradle quantity in that drift, the vec
age across the whole face showing
$34.30. A new ore shoot appears to be
opening up.
The new shaft referred to as having
been started last week is north and
east of the old shaft. 1t is the present
purpose of the management to sink
this shaft down $50 feet, where a level
will be established.
A roadway is now being built pre-
paratory to the installation of the big
gasoline hosting plant.

Perseverance an pluck in any un-
dertaking go a lohg way towarl ac-
complishing the ;l.sired end, and are
seemingly of greater value in mining
than in any other line of work.
The Bullfrog Steinway company las
exhibited these qualities in No small
degree and the last week shows that
their efforts were net in vair. a. n vein
CT quartz has been opened up that
shows values running as high as
$641.40.
The formation which they have been
following has all along DIPPED to the
east, but at a depth 81 about l5o feet,
a change took place and the dip is now
to the west, and in ten feet the vein
filled the shaft. A very wet tale ac-
companies the quartz, which ais, ear

DENVER

The thirty inches of high grade ore,
last week, has widened un-
til it is now cleer across the winze be-
low the second level in the Denver, and
all the ore taken out is being sorted
and sacked for shipment. Each shift
is producing about ten sacks of ore,
and since another shift was put IN
Wednesday night the production IS
doubled. The ore taken out with n
shift has been more than paying the
entire cost of all development work,
mining, hauling, and treatment, and
with the increased output a nice mar
gin will be left,
The ore broken on the first level is
being put in the stope above the second
level until connection is made with the
third, which will be accomplished next
week. Stopping may then be begun
from each level, and all the mucking
done from below.
The Rhyolite Lumber company's
team started for Goldfeld with 200
sacks December 1, and more than that
number of sacks have been taken out
of the mine since that time, showing
that the mine will produce more than
one f~reighting outfit can haul away.
The plan of development is to start j
fourth level and then slide all the ore
down into the gulch by means of a
chute, thus saving the expense of pack
ing it down on burros.
A winze will be sunk on the ore
from the third level, development work
will be started on the company's Ven
ture claim, exploration work will be
done on the vein 100 feet east of the
main workings, and all four of the
known veins will be Systematically de-
veloped, showing that superintendent
Darcy will have his hands full during
the coming year. The ore shoot has
now been explored for a distance If
354 feet and to a depth of 1875 feet.
The Denver is proving to be a big
ger proposition than even the most sau-
guine had dared to hope for.

v LEASE

The tunnel on the ground leased
rom the Golden Sceptre has drifted
on the vein for eighty feet, and they
propose to continue for another hun
bred feet before doing much sinking
or prosecuting. If no shipping ore s
found in the breast of the tunnel, a
WINE will be started from the tunnel
level. The leasers think that later
work will demonstrate that the vein
which they are now on splits at their
tunnel, one stringer going through the
Great Eastern and the other going %
the east on the Golden Sceptre.

LUCKY JACK
Crosscut Strikes Quartz and Tale on
1OO-Toot Level

The latest developments in the cross
cut on the one hundred-foot level of the
Lucky Jack hoshone property is 1T
tracing the attention of the mining
men now sojourning in the camp.
A few days ago the workmen en-
countered a strong vein Of manganese
in the face of the crosscut, about sew
enty-fve feet east of the shaft, AMI
further development has shown the
formation to be changing, and is now
pointed directly towards the Mont
gomery-Shoshone mine. II is the gen
eral opinion that this manganese is not
far from the big ledge which has been
opened up on the Montgomery-Sho-
shone property.
Two large dykes cross the ground Of
the Lucky Jack corresponding to SINH
lar dykes on the Shoshone property,
and it is towards the east dykes the
company is driving the crosscut. On
this dyke good surface assays were
found, and as the crosscut approaches
the dyke the assays are getting better,
and the naturalization of the ground Is
showing marked Improvement. Large
stringers of tale are coming in along
with the quartz and show much iron
manganese and hematite, and from
which small paintings of free gold are
obtained.
This showing taken in connection
with the fact hat the great Montgom-
cry ore shoot dips under the ground of
the Lucky Jack and is exposed by the
workings of the Montgomery-Shoshone
tunnel less than one thousand feet
away, makes it reasonable to expect
that the company will encounter the
main ore shoot at any time.
The company has let a contract to
Messrs. Chafey, Fritchoff, Manning
and Morrison, who are pushing the
work as rapidly as possible Beatty

RICH ROCK FROM FUNERAL

More than a mild sensation was
caused about town last Saturday by
the exhibition of some freee gold rock
by Charles Sinclair.
1t would be just as proper, howeve-,
to say that the specimens were free
gold showing rock. There were six
pieces and some of these, il is conserva-
tive to say, comprised more gold metal
than rock.
When run down by the reporter Mr..
Sinclair was reclining upon a couch IN
the living department of the Bullfrog
swimming pool. He had just arrived,
he said, from a fatiguing trip to Fuh-
eral range, where he got the fabulouslv
rich specimens from property that he
owned. The of Sinclais's claims
are the Big Hurah, Carnegie, Gould
and Little May. The property, accori-
ing to Sinclair, is about IA miles from
Bullfrog. 1t was purchased of John
Yeager of Portland, Ore, the deal BE-
ing consummated in Seattle, Wash, a
short time ago.
The specimens, which will without
effort run $4,000 to the ton, were
taken from a depth of 10 feet on a
ledge that a~lternates between quartz
and porphyry.
The Miner man saw the specimens
and vouches for their fabulous rich
ness. Neither do we know of any
reason for doubling the. statement of
Mr.. Sinclair, who, though a stranger,
answered the reporters questions in o
way to leave no room to doubt his
truthfulness or honesty. Besides, as
the southerner would say, "he sure ha
the goods to back him up. Sinclair Is
an old Alaska miner. -Bullfrog Miner.

NATIONAL BANK

At the 200-foot station in a drift
which is in II feet, Wednesday the
miners on the National Bank encoun-
tered a body of ore between 6 and 6
feet wide, nearly all of which is ship
ping grade and is being sacked. The
remainder is a high grade milling ore.
At the 100-foot station in IN 84-foot
drift a large ledge of good grade mill
ing ore was opened up Tuesday.
Manager Widdekind is highly elatel
at the showing made and everything
points to the National Bank becoming
a regular shipper in a very short time.

MAYFLowER

The shaft on the MayAower has
reached a depth of As feet, and values
are increasing. The vein is also in.
creasing in size as depth is attained l.
The quartz is the same manganese ore
which is found on the Hobo and Den
yer, and runs about $4,000 to the ton.
In connection with the quartz is a body
of talcy substance which pans excep-
tionally well. The tale quartz is about
two feet in width. Judge Lindsay says
"she is great and will make a big
mine.

The shaft ON the -Four Aces has now
reached a depth of ninety feet. The

the east, but Manager Griffith says
that stringers of manganese quartz are

They propose to run drifts and cross
cuts from the 1O0-foot level, to deter
mine the location and size of the ledge
encountered above.

OHIO BULLFROG

Superintendent L.. R. Sunderlin IS
of the Ohio Bullfrog company. One
shift is now at work and more men
will be put on shortly. The first work
was started in an open cut, preparatory
to running a tunnel, which is now being
driven to crosscut the formation trace
able from the Rush ground. The Vic
tor claim, which lies between the
Snowflake and Rush, has shown good
values. The formation is porphyry and
quartz, and Mr.. Sunderlin informs us
that it is looking better as they get
away from the leached rock on the
surface. They have indications on the
surface of three good lodges. The
first is about three feet wide, the sec
ond, eight feet and the third, nearly
fourteen feet. The company intends to
do at least five hundred feet of W" Il;
in the tunnel, besides numerous drifts
and crosscuts to thoroughly explore the
ground. When the tunnel is driver
400 feet, it Will have gained a vertical
depth of from 272 to 800 feet, AMI at
that point, they expect to cut the thiri
ledge. This company elco owns the \.
