P. W, Dargin and Richard Bam-
berger returned Thursday from Elko

pies which make the average jewelry
store look like two spot. The ore
is from group of claims located by
Mr.. Bamberger in Squaw valley,
Golden Circle mining district. There
are four claims owned jointly by
Messrs. Dargin and Bamterger.
The samples are among the richest
ore ever seen in Rhyolitc. The rock
is covered all over with gold and re-
turns all kinds of high assays. A
couple Of samples responded with So
1852 and $2,636 81, while an aver
age of the pay ore outside of the
high grade streak yielded $3.50 60.
The vein in which the strike was
made carries width Of twelve feet.
The material is an iron-stained quartz
and it is diiiicnlt to select spot in
it where hee gold is not plain 10 the

''The greatest Yetr is the general
verdict Of those who have seen the
great strike on tie Wild Cat claim at
Farrell. Many have visited the scene
of the wonderous strike and all agree
that it is the greatest surface show
ing yet discovered in the Seven
rroughs district.
The strike is about a mile from the
town of rarrell, at the head of a
branch canyon that turns north from
the main canyon. In trench or cut
80 inches deep the vein showed six
feet wide, between granite and por-
phyry walls. On the granite side a
streak ten inches wide assays from
$500 to $1,000 per ton. A four inch
streak on the porphyry side runs a.
bout the same. Five samples taken
from the FIVE feet between these rich
streaks averaged better than 5000
This marvelously rich vein has been
traced and uncovered by trenching
for 4OO-feet down the hill and at one
point shows twelve feet wide.

One party in visiting the scene Of
the strike took q rock from the loca-
tion monument. Upon breaking In
two be could see the free gold scat
tered through the rock from which
the monument was built. 1t is Ger.
tainly a rich claim. but the best fea
ture of the strike is the fact that il
demonstrates that the rich values ex-
tend the entire length of the distric,
making it reasonably certain that
valuable ground lies in between the
Troughs and Farrell, a distance O'
nearly ten miles.

below drift run last spring to tap the

There is no question in the minds Of
the owners and operators of the
lease but that they have caught the
famous liver lead on its dip and that
the rich values which this ledge show
cd on the surface are continued at
this depth.
Hi Stoker, one of the chief owners
Of the lease, received the assays on a
number of samples taken fror the
ledge last week AMI was highly pleas
ed with the results. The assays
showed values of from 500 to $500,
averaging over $500. These were
taken across the entire with of the
5-foot vein and show values that
make it a highly profitable shipping
proposition. Only few days before
these samples were taken. Mr.. SIoker
hid sampled the face of the drift and

GREATEST in The DISTRICT
Vein Six to Nine Feet wide Assays Up
To Over Thousand Dollars.
Strike was Made the s'Wd Cat" Claim, Lately Pur-
chased from P. N. Marker by Kimball and Gordon
of Salt Lake City---Have Traced Ledge
Over Four Hundred Feet.

P. N. Marker in the summer of 1906.
The assessment work for the year
was done. but no sensational values
were discovered. About six weeks
ago Messrs. D. A. Kimball and E. F..
Gordon, two young men of Salt Lake
purchased the claim from Mr.. Marker
at 5000. They represented q syn
dicate of young men from the City
of the Saints, who were paying on
stock holdings at ten dollars per
month per share. They had secured
some fractional claims adjoining the
Wild Cat and stated that they want
ed that to FILL out" their ground.
Whether they had discovered this
rich ledge at time of purchase is not
known, neither does Mr. Marker care,
for he has extensive holdings which
the declaring of this strike will en-
hance greatly in value.
1t is stated that the young men of
the Salt Lake syndicate had put up
but one months installment when this
rich discovery was made and that
they have since refused 100000 for
the property.
So 20 the fortunes of mining. A
poor prospector today; millionaire
mine owner tomorrow. still the Coun-
ty generally advances and each find
in the districts adjoining Lovelock
aid so much more to the growth
and stability of the town.
1t is needless to say that the ex.
tent and depth of this rich ledge will
be determined as fast as it can be
and there is every reason that it is
destined to he one of the richest
mines in the district.
