MASON VALLEY OPERATIONS
Yerington Property of Salt Lakers
Turning Out Big.

The large tunnel being run on the
Spragg copper property of the Mason
Valley Copper company, is now in a dis
tance of 510 feet and is being carried for
ward as rapidly as possible, says the
1erington Times. AT point In this tun-
ney 40 feet from the mouth a fifty-foOt
ledge of suulphide ore was cut which av
evagcs between and per cent in cop
per. In another 10 feet il is expected
that this tunnel will reach a point under
an incline which drops down Zoe feet from
the surface and shows over 100 feet of
suiphide ore that averages better than 5
per cent in the red metal. The sulphide
ore comes into this incline at a depth of
about thirty feet from the surface the
ore above being an oxide.
The showing on this property which is
held by salt Lake people. among whom
are Captain o. A. Tibbetts and Fred
Flindt. is excellent, and the company feels
that it has some of the best copper
ground in the great Yerington district
The people who comprise the Mason VAL
ley copper company are the pioneers

In the three groups there are forty
nine claims. Two of the groups are

claims. The other fourteen claims are
in another portion of the district The
syndicate that has been formed to make
the purchase is not willing to have its
identity disclosed at this time and
should the proposition, for any reason,
be abandoned, those who are identified
with the deal will never be known pub
lfcly. 1t can be stated, however. that
some of the biggest operators in the
