BUCKSKIN ENTHUSIAST
TELLS GOLDFIELIDDEERS
OF HIS CAMP

Al. 7. Koerner of the Goodale- Koerner
Engineering company of Backskin was
in Gold6eld this week and talked en-
Enthusiastically of the situation both pres
cnt and prospective, of this promising
gold and copper camp.
Buckskin and Yerington are contigu-
GUS camps. The Ludwig and the Doug
las have an enormous tonnage blocked
out. The richest kinds Of sulphides
have been encountered III large bodies
on the 500-foot level, which is recent
development. The electric power line
which was built for these properties,
especially, and for the Bluestone to the
southeast, runs only mile and halt
from Buckskin, giving that camp abund-
ant power at reasonable cost.
Mr.. Koerner with his partner, Mr..
Goodale, is connected with the first
property to ship ore on the east side of
the Buckskin district. The ore was
from the Union Blue, which shipped to

something like 1886 per ton. This ore
was taken from the face of tunnel in
only 20 feet. The Union Blue will soon
start vertical working shaft This
property lies contiguous to the well
known Jack Bell property and the Hon

given to Philadelphia capitalists. A
shipment of IS tons was sent out from
one of the leases on the Kennedy, lately,
which went into the big figures.
The ledge on which the Kennedy is
located, is making water freely where
ever considerable work has been done.

The Jack Bell lease on the Kennedy
and several other properties along the
Kennedy ledge are greatly troubled with
water, and several have been compelled
to shut down until pumping facilities
might be secured.
From the ore being produced, it is
self-evident that Buckskin is to take its
place among the best camps of the
