Want Government Title


Want Government Title
In anticipation of the beginning of
extensive developent work that is now
being planned, the company, through
its counsel, Frank G.. Finlayson, soon
will make application for a United
States patent. The ground now is held
in fee SIMPLE by the company under
location, but the directors desire to
secure a government title.
II. T. Rudisill, the we'll known mining
engineer, who has been retained by
the company to supervise development
work, recently visited the property and
submitted the following report:
I'm compliance with your request. L
visited your property, the By Chance,
Annie b, Fan Tan, Wall Street No. 2
and Jim Blaine located at Tonopah,
Nye county, Nevada and beg to submit
the following report:
ION examination of the records, /
find the title to be perfect and the
assessment work fully compiled with
for 1905. No bonds or liens against
the property.
"The property is situated one and a
half miles west of Tonopah, at an alti-
tude of 5000 feet. The five claims make
compact group, consisting of about
sixty acres. The adjoining properties
are the Pittsburg Tonopah, West Tono-
pah, Little Tonopah Development COM
pany and Red Rock Extension COM
pany.
The country is undulating, with
eroded mesas and occasional hills which
are irregularly distributed, the hills
being the remains of volcanic flows.
Carries Rich Veins
"This group of claims lies in the less
disturbed region, where the faults are
not so numerous The developments
in the surrounding rmines have dis
closed the fact that the earlier ande-
site, or what is know as a lode por-
phyry, lies at depth of about 800 feet
and is Immediately under the cap rock
or tuffa. Development work through
out this region has demonstrated that
the earlier andeste carries the most
permanent and richest veins, and the
fact that the intrusive rocks, which
all over the district have been found
to carry the poorer class of veins are
missing at this point, make it reason
able to suppose that a permanent pro-
ducer will be found at a less depth
than was necessary in property where
the intrusive rhyolites were encount-
cred. The only place where the earlier
andesite came to the surface was at
the original discovery on the Mizpah
claim, and it was owing to this fact
the grass roots. A gradual develop
ment to the west from the original |
discovery during the last four years
has shown the continuity of the min |
eralized belt in this direction. From |
the foreging it must be seen that when |
the mineralized zone is reached the re-
suits should be the same as those had |
in the mines to the east and the proof |
is positive by the development in the |
Tonopah Extension Mining company |
and the West Tonopah Mining company |
and the work now going on at the Red |
Rock extension, that this property lies |
in the trend of the greatest mineraliza-
tion.s
Outlook Is Excellent
development consists of numerous
shafts, but in no case piercing the cap
rock Work on the surrounding claims
has been of a satisfactory nature and
of great Importance to this property
in that it has demonstrated to a GER
tainty that at the depth of approXi-
the lode poryphyry, which has been
found in all cases to be the principal
bearing rock of the district.
1t is safe to predict that when this for
nation is uncovered on the Wall Street
group the future of the property will
be assured"
The financing of the enterprise is
now in the hands of the Pacific Coast
Mines bureau of Los Angeles, and this
is at present engaged in plac-
ing the treasury stock.
