Nevada Bonanza

PREGNANT Morningstar, president
and general manager of the Ne
vada Bonanza Copper company, was
in Yerington last week on business
connected with the property, and the
new townsite of M%orningstar. This
company has a group of fifteen claims
Just west of the famous Ludwig
mine, and has been carrying on de-
velopment work in a small way since
July last. A double compartment
shaft is being sunk on the liza claim
in the group and will be dropped
to a depth of 800 feet. This will
be a working shaft and the country
will be crosscut from this shaft at
depths of 100, 200 and 800 feet.
A tunnel is also being run on the
liza claim to cut a ledge which crops
on the surface. This tunnel now
penetrates Che hill for a distance of
about ffty-fve feet. The ledge on
the surface is in the neighborhood
of thirty feet in width.
In the Copper King claim in this
group a shaft is down fifty feet,
showing a ledge of copper ore six
feet in width which runs from 5 to
10 per cent in copper, $4.20 in gold
and a small amount of silver.
Tho nonnanv has a hnnrdino hourp
on its property sixteen by forty feet
in dimensions, bunk houses, black
smith shop and stables, and is now
building an office and rooms for
superintendent and asayer, and IN
the neal future an assay office will
be erected.

ordered by the company some time
ago is at this point ready for steam,
and will be placed in commission as
soon as the supply of fuel oil arrives
from California. The first freight to
be taken into camp by the traction
train will be a olt of three-inch pipe
to be used in laying about 1900
feet of water mains and through
which the camp will be supplied with
water in the future.

GREAT COPPER
CAMP OF ELY
Empire Nevada Copper

William Gelder of New York and
his associates. who recently secured
eleven full claims and a number Of
fractions on Copper fiat, just across
the river from Yerington, have Just
completed the organization of a
strong company to operate in the
great Yerington district. The COM
pany has been organized for 1,00O.-
600 shares with the par value of
each at IS. William Gelder is pres
ident of the company and his son,
j. Il. Colder, is one OF the directors
and general manager. The property
secured lies about one mile west of
Yerington and has some excellent
surface showings. Some work done
on several Of the claims also showed
up some good ore at a depth Of sixty
to seventy feet; in fact, several car
loads of cuprite ore were shipped
from these claims last year, which
gave returns of about IL per cent
copper.
During the past two months ex-
haustive tests have been made on the
surface silicate and oxide ores and
il has been thoroughly demonstrated
that they can be handled on a large
scale at a nice profit by the teaching
process. These tests have been con
firmed by no less an authority than
the Henry E. Woods testing plant at
Denver, and also the Hendrix Leach
ing company of Denver. This being
the case, there is no reason why the
company should not amass a fortune
from its holdings, as the oxidized ore
%outcrops on the surface of its ground
for a distance of over 1000 feet.
Careful sampling shows this ore to
run from 3 to 6 per cent in the red
metal, excluding the high grade NAL
achalite ore. which runs as high as
20 per cent in copper.
The company is planning the
construction of a large teaching plant
for the treatment of these surface
ores. and there are on the way from
the East a couple of diamond drills
to prospect the ground at depth to
determine the locality of the sulphide
zone. which must exist underneath
the oxides and carbonates, and de-
termine the spots where working
shafts shall be dropped down to de-
velop the ground at depth.
From now on the company will
push the work Of development and
plant construction as rapidly as pos
sible. In all probability the old
buildings on the ground will be con-
verted into a teaching plant, and
many new buildings win be erected
in the near future. Already the
company has a fine laboratory in OPP
Grafton consisting of c%rushers, grind
ers, rolls, engine, scales. and, in fact,
a complete outfit for making chemi-
cal tests, analysis and asays of every
character of ore.
j. e. Gelder paid Reno a visit this
week on company business and to ar
range for the exediti6us delivery OF
material for the new plant and de-
yelopment work.-Lyon County
