Golden Crescent

Superintendent Middleton of the
Golden Crescent Mining company
came over from Crescent on Wednes-
day to complete final arrangements
for the commencement OF operations
on the company's property in the
Searchlight district.
On the Happy Year group. located
south and west of the Boulder. a
double-compartment vertical shaft is
70 be sunk. This shaft Will be car
ried 4xS in the clear and will be
fnlly timbered. Water level Is the
prospective point. Hosting machin-
cry win be installed as needed.
The group comprises three claims,
the Happy Year. Colorado and the
Good Luck.
AZ Crescent the company has been
pushing work on the Syndicate tun-
mel. This is in 275 feet and a TWEEN
y-loot crosscut run al the face has
exposed mineral matter for the entire
distance. The formation is still on
siderably broken and rs a result
values are spotted. Many good as
says are had and some fine copper
ore Is found. There is every indica-
uon that additional depth alone is
needed to make the property a steady
producer.
Mr.. Middleton also has charge OF
the operations of the Searchlight
Gold Extraction company's property
10 Searchlight. This is located a
snort distance TO the east of town
and adioins that Of the Midas COM
pany. He announces that a shaft
IKE that on the Happy Year will be
sunk.
rms company also has property at
crescent on which present develop
ment has been confined to shaft work
ana surface trenching. 1t is known
as the Jumbo group and the ore av-
eiases $l3 10 the ton.-Bulletin.

Ramsey Consolidated

A crosscut from the 15O-foot leye
has been started at the Dago No. /.
workings. The ground breaks good
and the miners are making good
Roadway, having already cut eight
feet. The ground has shown a slight
change now that the perpendicular
shaft has been drifted from, the
heavy sulphide rock changing to rock
'nterspersed with yellow stainings
and indicating the probable proxim-
ity of the big ledge. It was expected
the great Dago No. 2 dixie would b.
cut at about the present level, cal
culating on the dip of the ledge a,
the surface, but no surprise would
be felt should quite a little drifting
be necessary as a Strengthening up OF
the ledge is likely. Now that the
crosscut is under way no effort will
be spared to gain the objective point,
the footwall of the dixie. What this

lecture, but 1t is decidedly interesting
to contemplate its possibilities.
The Dago No. 2 dixie outcrops 125
to $50 feet wide and about the
length of the claim. On this vast
ledge samples have been
taken and returned values that mean
vast quantities of pay ore. Some
streaks gave returns running sky
ward. The present crosscut will open
the ledge 225 feet from the apex, a
very good depth, and it would not be
surprising If the surface values, more
concentrated as they are sure to be.
showed a very satisfactory increase.
At all events enough ore could be
quarried right from the outcrop to
make a long run for a mill. With
the ore blocked out from the lower
level the output will be almost limit

GLOWING REPORTS
FROM SEARCHLIGHT


Two shifts are driving the west
drift on the S0O-foot level of the
Wvoming-Searchlight. On the level
above. where the recent strike was
made. a drift was run back some ten
feet toward the shaft, as near as per-
missible. and the latest sampling
showed two feet of ore averaging
s21.S5 to the ton. A picked sample
If the gouge matter Superintendent
edwin CARLSON states will run much
higher.
The shaft is making about 5000
gallons of water daily and its control
has given much trouble. A larger
skip has been ordered and when re-
ceiyed the one now in use will be
converted into a water skip; that is.
provided with a valve.
Directly the new part to the engine
was received sinking was resumed
and the 300-foot level speedily
reached. A station set was put in
and the first day of the week the
first round of holes was fired in the
drift. If the shoot is not encount-
cred in the drift a crosscut will be
run into the footwall. Judging from
the showings above the Wyoming has
every reason to expect something
very good in the near future.

Observation-Disclosures

Manager Paun of the Searchlight-
Mohawk Gold & Copper company
brings glowing reports of the prog
ress OF that property, situated twelve
miles due north of Searchlight. Near
the breast of the tunnel, which is in
23s feet and about 300 feet under
ground, there Is a body of ore nine
feet across that assays fairly
throughout from $23 to S24 to the
ton. But next TO the ledge Is a three
and one-half inch tale streak of hair
raising quality. One assay OF this
was run which gave a ton value of
1854. The actual value OF the
shirt stud which the assayer turned
over with his certificate was rs cents.
The ledge is of very light color
with some iron stain. Much Of the
tunnel work was done by former
owners. Soon after the first Of next
month Mr.. Pauf expects to make
the work hum when twelve to four
teen men will be put to work, and
a suitable class of buildings erected.
Mr.. Paun passed through town
Wednesday en- route 10 Las Vegas,
where he expects to meet his assocl-
ate, /. F. Peck. Near Vegas they
will inspect some mining property
which their company plans to take
hold Of. as well as to outline the inn

Prior to encountering this rich de
post the company was preparing to
cease work as the vein was badly
faulted at the 2OO-foot level. How
ever, the superintendent suggested
that the work be continued a few
feet further and in consequence the
rich ore was encountered. The SUI
erintendent now believes that a per-
manent ledge has been found.
The Bonanza King is equipped
with a hoist and there is a first-class
mill on the property. Ore is now
being hauled and the bins are full
of this high grade ore. The mill is
being put in shape and crushing will
commence in a few days,-Humboldt
