Special to the Mining Record.
Round Mountain, New, May 12.-The
greatest discovery of free gold, in some
particulars, ever made, was at Round
Mountain, New, May 8, and although the
extent of the wonderful find has not
been proven, the story or the discovery
may prove of interest
During the first part of April, 1906,
two men, C. G.. Boak, the lagest owner
of the famous Manhattan Consolidated
mine, and Lewis III. Rogers. attorney at
law in Goldfield, started from Tonopah
to inspect the Antelope claim at Round
Mountain, about fifteen miles above
Manhattan. The owners of the claim
held it at a very high figure, from the
| fact that the wonderful ledge discovered
on the Gordon property was supposed TO
run through it. Boak and Rogers came
to the same decision, and concluded TO
purchase the claim, making a large cash
| payment down to secure it. They left
a man in charge, ~instructing him to
trench at different places on the claim
to secure a favorable location to sink
a shaft, and returned to Tonopah, organ
izing the Round Mountain Antelope Min
ing
May 4, Harpending, the foreman,
started in to dig near where a badger
had started his home. The ground was
soft, but his shovel soon struck some
thing hard. Examining this substance,
Harpending saw that he had found a
nugget of gold which the badger had
brought up from some distance below.
The nugget proved to be a solid clinker
containing metal worth $72.
Harpending rushed at once to Man,
haitian and telephoned to Rogers and
Boak at Goldfeld and Tonopah to come
at once and returned to his badger hole.
He continued the excavation, following
the badgers golden lead, until he found
some more wonderful specimens.
Boak and Rogers started at once for
Round Mountain, and by the time they
arrived there the excitement was in
tense. as something unusual seemed to
promise.
Boak and Rogers found that a cut had
been made in the low side of a little
knoll about ten feet long and three TO
four feet at the deepest place. Harpend-
ing had covered up the hole in the bot
tom OF the cut, and uncovering this
asked Boak and Rogers to look closely
down into the cut. H~arpending then
took from his pocket a piece of metal
and rubbed it over a hard surface three

SLAB OF GOLD BROUGHT
Round Mountains Sensational Specimen
is Exhibited Here

The Salt Lake Herald, May IT, 1906.
A slab of gold! That is what the Me-
vada apers have been screaming them
selves hoarse over during the last week
and not without ~provocation. The ore
was uncovered in a 5-foot hole on the
Antelope Mining company's ground at
Round Mountain, fourteen miles north
of Manhattan, and that it will do her.
culean work in the sale of Antelope
treasury stock goes without saying.
The specimen, which is really a mag
nificent one, is now on it's way to Chi
cago, it's guardian, Lloyd Russell, jr,
of the Manhattan-Goldfield Brokerage
company of Goldfeld having stopped off
here between trains yesterday after
moo to give a number of friends a
change to loo at the ore.
The specimen, which had been i'm
bedded in a resting place of plaster of
paris and encased in a polished hard
wood box, is something like two or
three inches thick and a foot square. A
considerable portion of the exposed sur
face is covered with a coating of gold
possibly three-eighths of an inch thick
on the average, while the roc forming

inches square. The surface shona
brightly. 1t was seer that the surface
was a COLDER one.
Careful picking brought up two fine
pieces of rock, the top surfaces of which
were covered with a layer of gold beau
tiful to the prospector's eyes. Remoy-
ing the earth from the surface down, so
as to uncover a much larger area, the
badgers hole was followed further into
the ground where his nest was found.
The nest was a layer of roots and twigs
laid on a bed of white talc-a snow
white substance similar to flour. Re-
moving this layer of tale, something
bright was seen to appear underneath.
Calling for a cloth and water, Mr.. Rog-
ers washed off the roots n tale, and
there then appeared the prettiest sight
in the world-a bed of gold, shining
bright and fresh up into the face Of the
sun, from which it had been hidden for
perhaps a million years.
The surface actually covered with the
layer of gold, measured IL by Is inches,
and at the bottom of the hole not four
inche deep was, perhaps a sight never
seen before. Great care was taken to-
get the entire thing out whole, and fair
success was had, but the rock upon
which this layer of gold had been de-
posted in some ancient day before man
was born-before the human race start
ed-waS not of the most staple char
acter and some se~verances of rock and
gold were unavoidable. There was Sc
cured, however, what perhaps is the
finest specimen of free gold on earth
today, and that it is a rock weighing
about so pounds, with an area of sur
face about skis inches covered, or prac-
tically so, with a layer of gold running
from one-siXteenth to three-eights OF
an inch in thickness.
Besides this there are several smaller
pieces of rock, two to three inches wide
by four to six inches long, covered with
a layer of gold. In the bottom of the
cut all these formed one bed of gold,
and the badger had, hidden from human
eyes,, probably the most expensive bed
in the world, for the Round Mountain
not from the quantity of gold, but
from its value as a specimen. This
specimen is being exhibited at Tonopah
and Goldfield, and will in all probability
be sent to the eastern cities for exhibit
ton.

the background shows particles of the
precious metal scattered all through 1t.
The specimen is claimed to be the rich
est and largest eyer taken from a
Southern Nevada property, and evident
~ carries values amounting to several
hundreds of dollars. The story of the
strike is thus told by the Tonopah Miner
OF Saturday last:
THE most sensational strike of all oc-
Cured at noon last Sunday, when Judge
Lewis II. Rogers of Goldfield, in the
presence of a number of visitors, UNI
covered, in the bottom of a trench five
feet deep, a piece Of rock about 12xlf
inches in circumference and about two
inches thick. one face of which is liter
all coated with gold, which in places
is as thick as a $40 gold piece. This is
one of the largest and richest specimens
ever found In southwestern Nevada. II
was on exhibition in Tonopah this week,
and created a great sensation. The specl-
men formed a part of the lower casing
OF a narrow blanket ledge in a spur ex-
tending to the east from Round Noun
tain. This spur is covered by the An
telope claim, owned by Rogers, Boak
and associates"

The geological formation of the lodges of the Rogers Round
Mountain is notably similar to the formation of the Antelope.
The Rogers veins run parallel with those of the Antelope.
Ore has already been discovered in quantities running
$500 q ton.
Everything points to depth and permanency. 1t looks like
a real bonanza for all of the properties written about in this adj
vertisement and especially for the Rogers Round Mountain.
We look for this stock to be selling at 35 to 30 cents within
a week or ten days. Sales are being made right here in Gold
field.

for your reservation. This will keep you in touch with the pro-
gross on the properties.

THE GREATEST GOLD EXCITEMENT
EVER KNOWN NOW PREVAILS
AT ROUND MOUNTAIN

~ OUND MOUNTAIN, THE BONANZA OF ALL BONANZAS.
Nevadas record gold values have been opened
up on Round Mountain; assays from the latest discovery
80 run over 100000 to the ton; ore specimens running from
onehalf to over twothirds in gold are taken from the
famous Round Mountain Antelope strike.
The greatest gold excitement ever known now prevails in Nevada.
state, only to find the whole country located for miles around and the
principal properties are being guarded by armed men. No one is per-
mitted to go anywhere near the fabulous strikes or even the outcrop
pings Oh this same ledge with mining tools. This great, rich ledge
has been opened up for over 5000 feet.
Manhattan's fabulously rich gold mines r put in the shade
when compared with these recent Round Mountain discoveries.
Strikes of phenomenal value continue daily on this big hill and on the
immense lodges which trend the properties in this vicinity.
Such values and such specimens as those from the Antelope strike
mems carrying large values in silver, which is a absolute guarantee
which these samples are being taken.
Further development on Round Mountain will open up the great
est mines in the state. Some of the largest operators in Goldfeld have
grasped the opportunity and are giving their personal attention to the
development of the properties which theyha secured.
Almost in a day, it has come from nothing into a producing dis
trict. Stocks started at 25 cents have closed almost at par, with buy
es who would take a dozen times the issue had they the opportunity.
We got into Round Mountain with the first rush-we made the
rush. We are its pioneers. The best ground belongs to those com
there is something to boost.
We acknowledge the marvels of Tonopah, Goldfed, Bulfrog,
Manhattan, and all the others. We are glad that we can truthfuDy
say they are great, but Round Mountain is greater than all others, be-
cause it has the greater values and more re. The stories of its wealth

sound like fairy tales from the forgotten past, but all are based on
substance.
We want you to invest only on what there is to show. We want
you with us and we are with you. This is an open, above-board offer
in a camp that has done wonders while even the other good ones were
getting ready to get started. And Nevada makes camps, and good
ones at that, while the others are thinking about it.
In three years, Nevada has taken the central position in the lime
light of publicity and the world that has wondered and marveled at SO
Mountain.
The original Round Mountain Mining Company-the one that
purchased Louis Gordon's property-not only made the first big
strike, but it sold very little of it's stock at IS cents a share. This offer
never got beyond Goldfeld. The Round Mountain Extension Mining
Company, owning property adjoining the original location, placed
15O 600 shares on the market. In one day this was over-subscribed
The Round Mountain Antelope Mining Company placed a block on
the market at 25 cents. 1t since has jumped to IS cents and going
higher.
We are the exclusive fiscal agents for Antelope, as well as for the
Rogers Round Mountain. The latter company owns two excellent
claims: The Rogers and the Lookout. The Rogers claim is sur
rounded by the Round Mountain Extension ground, and the Lookout
is very near the Antelope. EXTENSIVE, ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT
is IN PROGRESS. A strong advance is sure to be scored soon.
When we say, WIRE YOUR ORDERS we mean it, because we
have refused orders for thousands of shares of Antelope at 20 cents
per share that came by mail as it had advanced to Is cents.
Mr.. Rogers, associated with us as president of the Manhattan
Goldfeld Brokerage Company, is a successful mining man. lie IS a
man who knows an opportunity when he meets it, and understands
how and where to meet that opportunity. Mr.. Rogers is the real
pioneer of Round Mountain, having gone into the Round Mountain
Extension with LOTUS, Davis and Sweeney, the famous lessees. He
also secured, by a large cash deposit, a bond on the Antelope. Events
are made thick and fast here, and we again wish to impress upon you
the necessity of getting in NOW.
