Connecting the Quo vadis group

somewhat of an idea as to the great

Il have visited the principal gold
camps of the United States. have

Catlin brothers of Camp Vincent has
certainly the very best indications

1T is beyond comprehension that 1t
has lain so long unprospected. as the
conditions are ideal. An eroded sad

both of which mountains, as well as
across the saddle, very strong and
well defined fissure veins can not only
be traced, but one can stand in the
vale below and see them standing up
like fortress walls. challenging the
hardy prospector to battle and force
these veins to yield their incalculable
riches-riches that are sticking right
up out of the ground, two, four. six

From these outcrops rock can be
broken which will pan from SIS to 81

pies, but every bit on the foot wall

samples have returned $4,000 per

of feet in length. The ore on. the
footwall at the shaft is also very rich.
About IL inches gives returns of over
$500 per ton.

exposed granite in places.
"The lucky prospectors and miners

This field presents the chance of
