Goldheld, Oct 30 AS development
work progresses along the principal
vein system Of Falrview. It's remark
able continuity and the persstency
with which values hold indicate eonclu-
sively that another Tonopah Is IN
process OF exploration. Ia these fea-
lures as well as with respect TO the
values carried by the ore and the gen.
eral formation. the two camps are prac-
tically identical. With every foot OF
work done along the great series OF
veins that pass from the Nevada Hills
through the Falrview Eagle. and then
traverse the properties of the Eagles
Nest and HaiIstone, showing tremen-
dously rich values In silver and gold
the entire distance, II appears that
Fairvlews ore belt Will prove the most
plethoric producer of Southern Nevada.
Along the course Of Tonopah's main ore
channel there have been opened up sew
eral OF the greatest silver-gold pro-
ducers of recent years; mines that have
sufficient ore blocked out to insure
heavy and regular tonnage output for
many years TO coma But Fairview's
remarkable series OF veins undoubtedly
show more uniformity OF values and
appear to extend TO much greater linz
It's than those of Southern Nevadas
oldest OF her new mining camps.
STRIKES OF SILVER ORE.
In addition TO the extremely signlf-
cant discoveries on the Eagles Nest.
Falrview Eagle, and Hailstone, all OF
recent occurrence, prospectors are find
Inn ol, 40,
farther TO the northeast from the Me-
vada Hills, generally reckoned az the
center Of the camp, Late reports from
Fairview tell OF strikes OF high grade
silver ore several miles to the north
east OF the HaIlstone and Eagles Nest
the ore showing abundantly In horn
silver. On tho Hot onion group,
north Of the foothills. above the desert,
ore having value OF 5000 to $500 IN
silver and gold has been exposed at
surface, undoubtedly proving the reg
ularlty OF the pricnipal vein system for
miles, as the property Is directly on
the course of the channel This im-
portant discovery extends the proved
zone OF the district a distance Of eight
to 10 miles in length.
SHOWS HIGH VALUES.
The developments to date on the
Eagles Nest and Hallstone properties
are OF especial Importance as proving
the magnitude OF the highly enriched
section of the district. Following the
sensational developments on the Eagle
cOnsistin gof the opening up of eight or
ten feet OF 1920 ore. came practically the
same results with exploration work on
the Eagles Nest, and this estate is now
producing high grade shipping ore hav-
Ing general average value OF 1904 per
ton. Then. 10 add To- the wave of ex-
element resulting from such extremely
important discoveries, the Halstone,
adjoining on the north and east the
Eagles Nest and Fairview Eagle, has
opened into a mining estate that pre-
sents every earmark of bonanza mine.
The continuity OF the main vein system
of the camp has. during the past month,
been positively proved OF uniform width
and richness n distance OF over 5000
feet, and the discoveries OF recent date
miles farther to the north and east
prove that the possibilities OF FairveN
are practically unlimited IN mineral re-
sources and stamps II as one of the
greatest mining regions of the Sage
Brush state.
CAMPS RAPID GROWTH.
Within month the camp has forged
ahead from a one-mine district to a re.
gion with at least four proved mines. In
this time the Falrview Eagle, Eagle'e
Nest and Hailstone have passed from
the prospect 10 the bonanza, and other
properties are fast approaching the
same transition. With every foot OF
work done on the Nevada Hills the mine
continues to reveal riches that stamp IL
as one of the greatest mining estates
of the country. High grade shipping
ore Is being disclosed OH all sides. In
addition to opening rich, ore along the
main vein channel OF the district on the
Hallstone, distinctly new ledge, hav-
Ing an Individual dip, and carrying as
rich ore as any encountered I'm the dis
trlct, has been found farther 10 the
north ON the same acreage AS explora-
ton work progresses the extent OF the
ore deposits OF the camp show CORE
spending expansion and in practically
every respect developments are proving
Fairyiew an exact counterpart Of Tono-
pah, both In point of permanency of
ore veins and the character OF ore dis
closed.
