RICH GOLD BEARING
LEDGE on WoLYronr

A strike on the Wolftone was made
last Saturday that proves the rich
lodges OF Union No. 9, Indian Camp and
Little Grey do not stop at the boundary
lines of those fine properties. The Wolf
tone takes in all that point of ground
that breaks of abruptly into the big fat
just below the Black Mammoth across
the canon.
The strike was made Saturday by the
trenchers working OF the wolftone. un-
der the direction of Manager ]. T.
Rogers. About twelve hundred feet
above the point Of the blum, a 5-foot
ledge of oxidized quartz and spar was
broken into that pans like the fine ores
found on the same hill farther south
east on several properties, including the
Stray Dog, Crescent, Union No. Q, In
dian Camp and Little Grey.
1t was two weeks ago when the men
were put to work on the wolftone and
they had been trenching for the ledge.
under the firm belief on the part of the
principal owners, Frank Naughton and
L. w. Rakestraw, that the valuable
ledge was there.
Mr.. Naughton was in town the day of
the strike and, needless to say, was de-
lighted with the glittering confirmation
of his views. He says that the ore is
very similar to that being taken out on
the Indian Camp and on Union No. 0.
The ledge pans all the way across and
on the side carries a streak a few inches
wide of high grade.
BIG STRIKE ON JUMBO LEDGE
East of the summit, and several thou
and feet south of the Buffalo group is
a bunch of claims owned by the Jumbo
Manhattan Mining company. There are
four or five of these and last week on
claim Jumbo No. 4. a strike was made
that puts that part of the district along
side of the best.
The property was incorporated by
Goldfeld.
The property is traversed by well-de-
fined lodges of hard quartz carrying
high values in free gold and good silver
values. The strike was made in the
company workings close to the surface,
where work was begun on sinking a
shaft. The ore, while not assayed, is
clearly worth from $500 to $1,000 a ton.
The strike proves that the limits of
the gold bearing area east of the sum-
nit is by no means restricted, and that
uniformly as far as has been determined
by development work, the lodges are big
and strong.
Messrs. Cassin e Rutledge nave Sc
cured a lease on the extension of
Jumbo No.. 4 and are going to work i'm
mediately on What they believe is a
ledge as good as the one On which the
original Jumbo strike was made.

JOKER pLAcERs VERY RICH

A. H. Deahl has been prospecting the
Joker fraction this week. and the results
obtained are such that the property may
not be worked under an Incorporation
but by the owners on a partnership
basis.
UGH methods of mining would not be
possible except in the richest ground.
That is the kind the Joker is. Surface
or placer paintings gave results that
were very much like those on Eldorado
and Bonanza creeks in Dawson. One
miners pan of dirt gives a dollars
worth of dust n nuggets without be-
ing touched by a pestle. The rich dirt
comes from an outcropping ledge that
has ~decomposed and crumbled. The
values are in large flakes and nuggets,
and when sinking uncover the solid
ledge below it is expected that ore of
sensational richness will be ound.
