Another 0ldHassayampa
Mine Producing
Metal
Good Results Lead To
Plans For Further
Development

Il. NJ. Carpenter has returned from
the ncw smelling plant at Humboldt,
where he sold a carload of ore from his
Independence mine IN the IIassayampa
district.
He stated 20 the Journal Miner that
the returns received from the shipment
was fully equal 10 his expectations, and
expressed himself ~ well pleased with
the treatment received NJ the hands of
the management of the new concern.
The independence mine il situate
about H. miles south of this city in
the immediate vicinity Of the Jersey
Lily, aud about one mile and half
west Of the Blue Dick and Dosoris
miucs. all Of which were great produc.
crs in the early days of mining in this
county.
Under the name of the Gold Leaf,
much gold ore of II high grade, some
of which sampled AZ high as sl75 To
the ton, was taken from its workings,
and shipped TO shelters in other states.
This is the first shipment OF any con-
sequence made from the ground by
Mr.. Carpenter, and it has proven M
satisfactory that he IL now engaged in
making arrangements TO commence the
development of the property on a more
extensive scale than ever.
The group consists of three claims,
two of which are located along tho
same vein, while the third covers q
spring in which there is a never fail.
ing supply of water at all seasons Of
the year.
The principal development work con
sists of two tunnels run along the
VEN, the upper tunnel being in n
distance of $50 feet, while the lower
one IL now in "A distance of about 800
feet Both openings are connected by
an unpraisc following an ore shoot from
which n large amount of high grade or,
has been mined. In the lower tunnel
Wine has been sunk at distance
OF about 100 feet from its mouth, TO q
depth of 20 feet from the bottom of
which drift has been run. These
works expose continuous vein o,
gold ore, which samples on the ave
rage width of four feet over 81 "a
the ton in gold. Part of this IN,
streak furnishes the high grade or,
from which the shipments referred t.
have been sorted.
The vein runs in n norther,y and
southerly direction following a field
site dyke that cuts through n schis,

Equally ms wonderful rs any Of the
rich strikes reported here within the

evening from the tunnel being run on

yampa district, where, yesterday af.
tcrnoon, II inches Of the highest grade
copper ore yet found in that tunnel
had been uncovered in n place where
1t was not suspected that any ore ex-
listed.
The new discovery was made 1870
feet from the mouth of the tunnel ut
depth Of about 1856 feet from the
surface. The new lens of ore, while
following the same vein as the other

good grade of shipping ore has been
extracted, is entirely Independent of
IL, and Of much higher grade. A drift
will be started along the new find with

richness.
