Another Tremendous
Find in Hays=M onnette

Yesterday the shift running d cross
cut from the bottom of the Hayes
Monnette shaft at a distance of less
than ten feet cut into the monster body
of ore which is so well shown at the
150-foot level. The men have been at
work here only a few days and ex-
pected to have to go much further to
catch the ore body.
This proves again that the ore is 60
ing down, no one knows how deep and
so far as the leasers are concerned it
makes no difference, for had they the
heaviest kind of machinery they could
not get out what is now in sight during
the life of the lease.
The winze started in a drift on the
150-foot level is now down about TWEEN
ty or twenty-five feet, and this will be
pushed right along down to the same
distance as the shaft, which is down
225 feet and which includes twelve or
fifteen feet of stump.
The winze is going down in the rich
est ore in the mine, the values running
away up into the hundreds and some of
it into the thousands. Through this
winze the ore will be shot down to the
bottom of the shaft and hoisted from
there as soon as the new fo%rty.horse
power hoist is installed. F..

THE SPHINX ANIMATED

Two shafts are being sunk on the
property of the Sphinx Round Mountain
Mining and in each instance
excellent gold values are being obtained.
One shaft is down 80 feet and the other
35 feet, and both arc in ore with no
walls in sight. 1t is the intention 10
sink shaft No. / to a depth of 90 rect
and then to crosscut to both walls and
drift on the ledge. At surface the lead
has peer opened up for a distance or
400 feet and for the entire length 1t
mans and assays well. Free gold
abounds in the quartz and no paintings
are obtained that are below high grade
mill values. The management, this week,
began sacking $500 ore and Will ship
inside of the next twenty days.
Orson Smith, who is associated with
w. III. Clark and ]. w. Shockley in the
ownership of the Sphinx, was in te%n
Monday. Mr.. Smith is confident that
the property is a winner and that 1T is
destined to become one of the large pro-
ducers of the Round Mountain district.
AS an immense free-milling proposition
Mr.. Smith declares the Sphinx has few
equals in the state, and so far as de-
veloped the ore bodies seem almost UNI
limited. He states further that there
are five properties in the Round Noun
tain country on which excellent SHIP
ping and mill values are already opened
UP, and he anticipates that they will be
sending ore to market regularly within
the next few weeks. He says that a
feeling of optimism permeates the oper-
ators of the camp and that a vast
amount of prospecting is being done.
GOOD NEWS FROM MILLETT
A ten-inch streak of ore having an
average value of $500 per ton has been
opened up on the Blue Bird claim of the
Buffalo company. The shaft is down a
depth of so feet and is all in ore. Aside
from the grade referred to there is II
inches of $3.50 rock.
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1906-05-26

The new find means that the mine
now has at least 200 feet of ore in
depth to the east of the shaft, and no
one can tell how far east, north or
south, because the mine is a big
quarry of mineral.
When the Sun reporter visited the
mine last Saturday, in company with
E. A. Collins, general manager of the
Combination mine, that gentleman
frankly admitted that it beat any
thing he had ever seen, and though he
manages one of the greatest mines in
the country, he told Mr.. Hayes he was
ashamed to invite him over to the Com
bination workings, as his property
would look so insignificant. 1t must
be borne in mind that Collins is an ex-
pert of the highest schools and of the
highest training, and has had the man
agement of some of the greatest mines
of this country and abroad.
Along with all of this Hayes & Mon
nette have more ore in the 150-foot
level than they could hoist in several
months without going a foot further
down. The present little f~fteen-horse
power hoist is kept going night and day
constantly, and between shifts pulls out
thousands of gallons of water each day.
The new forty-horse power is expected
almost any day.

ROUND MOUNTAIN
ENJOYING A BOOM

Round Mountain, New, May 24.-Min-
ing affairs are picking up apace in this
camp of phenomenal strikes and mar
velous gold values. The district is
rapidly filing up with prospectors and
mining men of capital and new ground
is coming in daily. Strike follows strike
with a rapidity which would be monot-
onous save for the really fabulous gold
returns and in some instances the rock
is so smeared over with the precious
metal one is inclined to believe that
Midas like, it has turned to gold beneath
the touch of the prospector. Ever since
the original discovery on the Sunnyside
property strikes of ever increasing mag
nitude have been made, but as yet the
rich find on the Antelope claim OF the
Round Mountain Antelope Mining COM
Dapv remains unriValed.
