MISC0NCEPTION REMOVED
REGARDING GEM BELT

A very common misconception exists,
even among San Qiegans, about the To-
cation and extent of the San Diego gem
belt. Many people seem to have an idea
that gems are found all over Southern
California, in fact that they may be
stumbled onto in almost any mountain
canyon. For the benefit of such it may
be we'll to explain that the gem belt of
Southern California about 130 miles In
length by 80 in width, and extending in
a southeasterly and northwesterly direc-
tion across San Diego county. its north
western extension running into Riverside
county and its southeastern end extend
ing down into the desert portion of Ba-
ja California. But it must not be sup
posed that all this territory is gem-bear-
ing. 1t is only here and there that
lodges of gem bearing crystals are found.
A few evenings ago the mining
editor of the San Diego News
paused in front of jewelers.
window to look at a choice display
evidently recent arrivals in the city, also
stopped to look at the display. One of
them remarked: "These gems are very
pretty, but they CAM be very valuable
only Just worth the cost of cutting be-
cause you can go up in the mountains
and pick them up by the bushel." And
the man was speaking seriously. AS a
matter of fact the first grade of tour
maline crystals is worth three or four
times their weight in pure gold. Several
other varieties of gems mined in San d.
ego are as valuable as the tourmaline. A
gem mine, IL 1t contains goodly quantt-
ty of good crystals, may prove quite as
profitable as a gold mine.

tion mill regarding the Ollinghouse mill
at Wadsworth, the Consolidated Mines
company has decided not to take over the
plant under contract The cost Of put
ting the mill INTO condition to treat the
ores of the Consolidated would be ap-
proximately $4,000, and three months
time to effect the necessary improve
ments. Practically remodeling would be
necessary in case the Merger people as
sumed charge of the plant. In view Of
the cost, the time and the fact that COM
pany is now sending two cars a day to
the Western Ore Purchasing company
with early settlements, brings a halt to
future negotiations.
Goldfield is now producing 100000 a
month in gold bricks, besides what is
being shipped to the smelter trust. The
gold bricks are the genuine article. They
go to the United States mint at San
Francisco, and when the value is de-
termined within twenty-four hours
mediately returned to the shippers. These
pieces may not be manufactured from
Goldfeld gold. but they. bear the govern
ment stamp that passes current In any
portion of the world.
At present there are only two reduc-
tion plants in operation in the camp
the one at the Combination and the
other at the Nevada -Goldfield Reduction
works. Each is running through about
sixty tons a day, and amalgamation,
cyaniding and concentration are en-
ployed. The saving is about 92 per cent
of the assay value of the ore. The saw
ing by amalgamation and cyaniding from
which the gold bricks are made is about
Sc per cent Of the assay value and the
balance remains In the concentrates,

but that is enough, according to their
notions of sufficiency. The discoverers
are Jack Kendall and Jim Sloan, old time
prospectors, and they have brought in
samples of the ore that they have un-
covered and the ore looks like the
goods
More than that, the assays tell a most
interesting story. The men have returns
from two of their claims. The ore from
the Silver Dollar claim goes S197.4 and
from the Rainbow claim $177.14. On the
latter claim Is a huge boulder weighing
about two tons, and Kendall and Sloan
chipped off a sample of this, and the re-
turn from that was $76.56.

WILL START BUILDING
SHELTER BEFORE LONG
Pacific Reduction company's Great
Enterprise Is FavorabIy Received
by Railroads and Mining Men
Throughout Territory

The new smelter which the Pacific
Reduction company will soon erect will
be located at Crucero, which is located at
the junction of the Tonopah and Tidewa-
ter and the Salt Lake railroads, forty-f five
miles east of Daggett, in San Bernardino
county, California. The survey for the
smelter's site has already been complet-
ed and it is expected that the work of
breaking the ground will be under way
within ninety days at the outside. The
company has control of 800 acres with
ample switching privileges on the two
railroads, the officials of the latter hav-
ing expressed themselves as being high
ly elated over the prospects which the
new smelter will open up. When it is
known that within radius of fifty miles
of the smelter approximately 500 tons of
ore are shipped daily to the Salt Lake
smelters, 1t can also be readily under
stood that the new undertaking is looked
upon with great favor by the mining
men of that territory Their favorable
opinion is greatly enhanced by the fact
that the freight rates on their ores to
this smelter are exceedingly low and
will enable them to effect great saving
in their smelter account.
Plant to Be Complete
The smelter when completed will con-
sist of two 100-ton lead stacks and one
100-ton copper stack. Auxiliary to this
will be a Lowe system coke plant, for
which the complete rights for San Ber-
nardino county have been secured by the
company. This plant will supply about
twenty-five tons of the best grade of
metallurgical coke which will increase
the capacity of the smelter to approxi-
mately 500 tons daily, and will also fur
nish power sufficient to operate a 350O-
horse power electric lighting plant which
in itself will be of no small benefit to
the mines of that region. l.. addition to
all Of this there will be residue of
distillate in the form of gasoline suffi-
cient for the needs of all the camps of
the desert.
The company intends to build up q
custom business and expects within a
year to increase their capacity to 1000
tons per day, but a the present time
they own lead-gold properties in the
Shadow Mountains, twelve miles east of
Silver Lake, which alone will produce
enough ore to supply one quarter of the
entire initial capacity of the smelter,
and at the same time furnish flux for the
custom ores treated. The company also
owns a number of copper properties in
the New York mountains as well as ex-
tensive lime and iron deposits on the
railroad near the smelter.

countered in following the lead, and in
the cross leads, as the main idea was
to get the big contact vein that shows
so prominently on the surface. and from
which, right on the surface, pay rock
can be picked up or broken off In ha.f
dozen places. The Indications are that
the main ledge is not far distant, as
evidenced by the high-grade assays that
were secured. The ore went as followU
$1O.6S, $17.37, $31.5S s57.16 and s1891S. Near
ly all the values were in silver. with a
little gold and lead running from TO 8
per cent.
