Henry P. Ewing, in a letter to this office, stated that it is reported in San Francisco district that it is the inten- tion of the Gold Road company to put in a gravity line from Kingman to Gold Road to supply that camp with an abundance of water. The big cleo tric plant is the incentive of this line. as with an abundance of water and cheap power the Gold Road will be- come one of the greatest gold mines in the world New shafts will be sunk on the outside mines and the capacity of the mill more than doubled. The Gold Road mine is capable of furnishing double the amount of ore now consumed in the mill and with the other mines producing it will be sending out l5O,OOOS to 2OO,OOOS in bullion monthly.
Mohave County miner., 1906-06-23

The Arizona SS Minnesota Gold min ing company is to run a long tunnel under the mountain to tap the Eldor- ado mine, at Gold Basin, at depth of about eco feet on the incline. This will give them large area of stoping ground and at the same time demon- strate the value of the property at depth. If the mine is found intact at the depth of the tunnel level shaft will be sunk to cut the vein several hundred feet below the level. The ore in the lower workings of the mine is of good milling value and it is ex- pected that it will prove to be one of the richest gold mines in that section of the county.
Mohave County miner., 1906-06-23

The Vivian mill. with a daily ca pacity of thirty tons is now running on half time, owing to the scarcity of water. The mine and mill are under the supervision of 5. w. Woods, one of the earliest millmen of this county. The mill is fitted up with cyanide plant of capacity sufficient to care for all the pulp the mill can make. It also is fitted for amalgamation and should it be found advisable the ores can be amalgamated at small expense. A pipe line has been put in from Cot tonwoOd Canyon, near the Pasadena mines, and while they use all the wa ter the Vivian mine makes the entire supply is insufficient. It is proposed to put in a large pumping plant in the Mohave valley and pump water into the district to supply every mine in it. The survey has already been made for the line. which will be eight miles in length. At a depth of fifteen feet wa ter is found in the valley in abund- ance. while at a depth of thirty feet it is impossible to pump well dry with the largest pump. While this line will be expensive it is a necessity and the mines to be successful will have to go to the expense Of putting it in. On the other hand were the mines to be sunk to a depth of one thousand feet an abundance of water would surely be found. It would appear to be a lack of good mining judgment to attempt to exploit the barren zones in the mines when at greater depth great ore would be found. So far the district has shown that barren zone exists at a depth of 300 feet in prac- tically all the mines and at that depth many of them have had the greatest amount of drifting and crosscutting done. The money spent on that level
 would have paid for big shaft to a depth far below the water level. The
 work on the Goldroad mine has dem- onstrated that depth is essential to the life of the mines of San Francisco dis
 trict.

J. A. Carrow reports the discovery of a very rich vein of gold and silver bearing ore in the region of Grayback mountain, near Burro Creek. by John Quirk, of Skull Valley. Mir. Quirk has been at work on the mines sonic time and has taken out ore that ran about 5OS per ton. Small streaks in the vein carry values as high as four or five thousand dollars to the ton. The mines are close to water. being but about a mile from the creek, where a good flow can be had the greater part of the year. The claims are in this county, some distance from the Yavapai county line.

J. C. Dexter came in from Chloride Thursday last. He reports great ac- tiv.ty in the mines of the Mineral Park section and believes many good prop critics will be opened up this year. At the Keystone the richest of silver ani gold orc is being taken out. About twelve men are at work on the old Laporte mine and in the other prop critics of the camp chloriders are at work. On the summit of the range, east of the town Steve Tyler is work ing several men and getting big re- suits.
