MACHINERY FOR
THE MALACH|TE

There is general rejoicing in the camp
of the Malachite Copper company; the
past week witnessed the arrival of much
needed machinery to be used III the
further development of that excellent
property Like many other companies
operating here, the Malachite has suf-
fered materially from the delays in
getting mine machinery and mine equip
ment. Now, however, that the great
est obstacle has been overcome, op-
erations will continue in manner
satisfactory to all concerned.
The equipment consists OF the 10
horse power motor seven-drlll com
pressor. hoist capable of sending the
main shaft to the 500-foot level, drills
and all other supplies needed to secure
efficient mining. By the time the o0o
foot level has been reached, if not be-
fore, the management will have installed
an electrical hosting equipment, thus
taking advantage of the improved MIN
ING facilities soon to be presented the
whole camp of Yerington. The Maia-
chite company owns large acreage
surrounded by numerous mines whose
location upon the famous red metal zone
has made development work COM
paratively easy task. The Malachite
developments so far have served to
emphasize the richness of this zone, and
;ts future is confidently regarded by
those at the helm of the organization.

PROPERTY THAT
PROMISES WELL

If location and surface showing are
indicative of future greatness, then, in
all sincerity, the property of the Black
Diamond Copper Mining and Smelling
company is destined to be one of the big
producers of the camp
Traversing the property is fve-foot
ledge at the narrowest point from which
ASSAYS from to 20 per cent copper and
from So to SO per ton in gold have been
obtained. This ledge carries an abund-
ance of silica, which, i'll itself, is market
able at S4 per ton for fluxing purposes.
The promoters of the property have
inaugurated an active campaign of de-
velopment which has for its object the
opening up of the estate in manner
both systematic and economical.
The group covers sixty acres and oc-
cupies an enviable position in the Yering-
ton mineral zone But 1000 feet north
west of the Bluestone, 4, 500 feet from
the Spragg and 5000 feeet from the
great Nevada Douglas, surely it seems
certain that it will make good
The directorate is composed of men
we'll known in the business, financial
and mining world Shareholders in the
Black Diamond are to be congratulated
on this score This paper does not wish
to advise anyone SO far as investing in
any property is concerned, but it will
venture the statement that, knowing the
men behind the property, it will be
opened up as thoroughly and honestly
as money can accomplish the work.

hand. The former owners represented
group of Salt Lake parties.
Immediately following the closing of
the deal, the new owners set to work
with a vim, which has for its object the
opening up of the estate at the earliest
possible time. A three compartment
shaft is being dispatched as rapidly as
men, money and machinery can accom-
pllsh the work. The past week saw the
installation of much new machinery,
consisting of complete compressor

The Mcconnell is one of the earliest
locations made in the Mason district,
what is popularity known as the Yering-
ton district. Many years ago, before
copper had come to occupy the position
it now does i'll the mining world, Jack
Mcconnell, prospector, located the
ground. AT the time there were no rail-
road connections at Wabuska. Some
idea of the richness of the ore may be
shown when it is learned that Mcconnell
hauled the rock to Dayton and there

sold it, realizing handsomely. OF course,
Mcconnell did not mine the property in
a systematic manner, nor can it be
shown that he would have been justified
in doing SO in those days. He chlorided
the surface, extracting from different
parts of his property the richest Of the
stuff, shipping it to Dayton, where it
was treated and finally sold to the
United States Mint at Carson.
Mcconnell was long since called to
his final rest. He did not live to see
the dream of his life realized, for it is
recorded that he was wont to say that
the Mcconnell would one day develop
into one of the biggest propositions in
the country. Watch copper, said he,
then watch the Mcconnell. y
The Mcconnell is in the very heart of
the proven mineral belt Around and
about are properties of known worth,
while just north lies the famous Blue
stone, the -million-dollar property of
Captain DeI4amar.

wonderful red metal district. quarter

to pay for eight claims and three frac-
tlons, which, besides meagre surface
workings, has shaft sunk to depth of

Surely this monster deal places a con-
fidence in this district which annot be
shaken. And, mark you, the sum in
volved in the transfer of the property is
said by those familiar with the McCon-
nell property to have taken the holdings
from the bargain counter.
The deal affecting the title to the proper
ty was perfected some time since, but for
some reason the public was not apprised
until few days ago The purchasers
are the Goldfield- Nevada Reduction

Su II was the remark of Robert S.
Billings, one of the most eminent min
ing engineers in the United States with
an experience covering twenty eight
years in the principal mining sections of
this country, when approached by a rep
resentative of this paper for an express
ion of lis opinion regarding the great
Yerington copper district
Mr.. Billings has many interests here,
representing four different sets of east
ern and foreign engineers. AS buyer,
promoter and expert, he is i'll position,
after a careful examination of this dis
trict to speak intelligently.
'At the present time, - said Mr.. Bill
ings, the development of the camp or
district taking into consideration its
present and its increasing area, is some
what meagre. 1t is true extensive de-
velopment has begun in few of the
leading properties, but even this is
limited taking into consideration the
known mineral area.
Our surface developments wherever
made intelligently within large radius
are demonstrating every day the inn
mense area that the mineralized assuring
and ore contacts cover, and have also
demonstrated beyond peradventure
that we are to have one of the largest
producing copper camps of the west.
1T is purely commercial question
whether we can expect here or very
near here any large smelling operations
for the reason that, independent of any
trouble that might follow from smelter
tunes, it is now become very clear to all
experienced operators that a smelling
property is interviewer with railroad.
situation covering every advantage of
the latter must be selected where ores,
fuxes, fuel and supplies can be best
assembled and where the manufactured
product can be best distributed. Con-
sidering these features, it may be doubt
ful whether Yerington or immediate
vicinity will witness any very large
smelling operations. 1t will, however,
have beyond doubt very large milling
plants for the concentration by water
ana electricity, one or both, OF the
various ores and in some instances there
Will be required teaching plants for the
lower grade ores adapted to that process
and which cannot be concentrated.

It appears to the TIMES that it is high
time the Government should look more
particularly into the great Yerington
district. When such men as Heinze,
Orem consider the district of sufficient
Importance to invest their money, then
for no other reason the operators here
abouts stand in position to expect
request that the geological survey cover
this district with a portion of its field
staff be considered and granted.
The benefits that would accrue to this
entire mining section once the geological
survey had passed upon its geology and
ore bodies are many. Not only would
the report be guide for those who are
mining here, but of inestimable value to
the local and visiting engineers. In adj
dition, it would add this section gener-
ally to the mining world.
A mining engineer, and there is dis
tinction, coming to this section at this
time, has but little data to go on The
result is apparent to all; individual
theories are liable to prevail and conflict
with actual conditions as known to those
who have had opportunity to study this
section.
It's we'll known fact that the Gov
ernment has sent it's men more than
once into districts which had not reached
the stage of development that the Yer
ington district has. This particular sec
ton is coming to be known, if it not already
is, one of the greatest centers of copper
excitement in the United States. II is
meet and proper that Uncle Sam should
exercise a little curiosity concerning
Yerington and its mineral resources. 1t
is but right that he should dispatch
portion of his official family to this dis
trict that he may become the more ac-
quainted with section that can not fail
to add wonderfully to this nations
wealth.
The TIMES will at once act in the
premises. AS before stated, it asks the
cooperation of every operator in this
district, as we'll as every man who has
any interests here. Let an appeal be
sent to Washington which cannot be
refused.

EMPIRE IS SHOWING UP
STRONG

Attaching to the operations on the
Empire is Sphinx-like silence on the
part of the management. However, the
public may rest assured that there are
great things in store for that property.
For some time past it has been an
open secret that high grade copper was
encountered in the sulphide zone by the
diamond drill, which was in operation
not great while back. The fact that a
shaft is being sunk to tap the ore body
is taken to indicate that the Empire peo-
pie have more than they care to make
public
The Empire is but a stones throw
from the city of Yerington. The devel-
opment of the property will therefore be
watched with keen interest

Strike on Yerington Con.

A big body of iron carrying copper
values has been encountered in the tun-
mel on the Yerington Consolidated
ground. The strike was made at dis
tance of $50 feet in the hill Calculations
show that an additional distance of SO
feet will be required before the ledge
which outcrops on the surface will be
reached. This splendid holding adjoins
both the Bluestone and Spragg properties
