Samples brought in from the Search
light Copper-Gold company's estate a
few DAYS ago ran as high as $117 in
gold and copper. The property is being
thoroughly prospected, as the manage
ment is DESTROYS of sinking another
shaft on the immense ledge that ira
verses the Dom Paul claim. Samples
taken from the o~utcroppings on this
vein ran from $3.45 to $50 in gold and
copper. This property is one of the
best prospects in. the Searchlight dis
trict. as development shows us the ore
in every shaft, tunnel and open cut.
An excellent prospect is the Sunny
Jim group, consisting of four claims, adj

of Searchlight. w. ]. Kennedy has been
operating this GROUP, and has opened
up a fve-foot vein of free milling iron
stained quartz, averaging so in gold
per ton. There are three parallel veins
on the Sunny Jim claim, and prospect
holes have been sunk and ore exposed
in every cut. The values are very uni
form, averaging about IS per tor.
The Southern Nevada are about to re-
sumo operations on the Blossom, which
was temporarily closed down owing to
the water shortage. A ten-stamp mill
is to be erected upon his property, in
addition to the ten stamps on the Prin-
cess group also belonging to this COM
pany. Water has been developed, and
with the immense amount of ore in

will enjoy a long reign of prosperity.
President Jennings is expected back
from the east very shortly to develop
some of the valuable claims owned by
other companies he is interested in.
The Stone-Brown company are pre-
pairing to operate the Gold Sovereign
group, adjoining the Southern Nevada
on the east, at once, and machinery has
been ordered to facilitate rapid devel-
opment. The main vein of the Southern
Nevada traverses this property forming
a granite contact.
The management of the Annette is
timbering the working shaft thoroughly
and will therefore suspend sinking until
The timbers are placed in position. The
Shaft is being sum on an incline of 70
degrees in the foot wall, and when
water level is attained crosscuts and
drifts will be run to find the extent of
the ore bodies.
