The Gladstone-Greenwater Copper
Company are pushing work on their
property. Although work was not
actually commenced until a short
time ago a tunnel $50 feet long has
been driven to tap the ledge at a
depth Of about $50 feet. The devel-
opment work, Supt. r. r. Tally de-
clares, is most satisfactory. and it is
likewise most promising. Mr. Tally
has a very comfortable camp located
near the mines, and the comfort OF
the stan and the miners is carefully
looked after.
The tunnel will be driven at least
1900 feet. and after that distance has
been attained a shaft may be sunk
and another tunnel driven from the
Death Valley slope. Speaking of the
property Superintendent Tally said
that it compares f%avorably with any
in the district. Besides the excellent
copper showing assays of Sc in gold
to the ton have been found. Mr..
Tally unhesitatingly expresses great
faith in the Greenwater copper fields.

HIBERNIA

While in Goldfield recently l.. l..

Hibernia property consisting of three

CALUMET.

The Goldfield-C Calumet is a new
mining company organized under the
leadership of Col. o. P. Posey and
Governor T. F. Mitchell. The com
pany has acquired the ownership of
three full-sized lode claims known
IN the map as the Sandstone Extern
sion Nos. /, 2 and about sixty
acres of ground. The claims lie
about two miles north of the city and
about 1900 feet northwest of the
Kendall and Sandstone mines. The
property was reported upon by Gov
ernor Mitchell and his report led sew
eral eastern capitalists, as well as
Colonel Posey, to join in their pur-
chase. Speaking of the property
Governor Mitchell said:
I'VE found iourine ore on the sur
face that runs 500, and porphyry
that runs $1.60 to $3.50. lust over
the line there is a shaft where there
was encountered some rich boulders
Of quartz that carried values as high
as $1,000 to $500 in gold. These
boulders were not in place, and it is
my opinion that they were fragment
airy pieces of ore eroded from the
vein on the. Sandstone Extension
property.
THE formation is the same erup-
tive character of ore that shows on
the developed mines of the district,
and the contacts. as far as determin-
ed by development is the same.
THE ground of the G%oldfeld-Cal
umet Mines Company, being in their
near locality. subject to the same
conditions, and similar in character
of ledge matter and ore deposits as
the principal producers of the dis
trict, in all likelihood is as rich, at
least, as any of the ground around
it-that of the Sandstone and Ken
dall-upon which ore running into
the thousands Of dollars have been
uncovered. The ground for the most
part is covered thickly with wash
and where the veins have been ex-
posed the surface showings are as
good as any of the best mines, and
a great deal better than the majority
of the surface showings OF all the
great mines of the district. Gold

FORTuNA EXTENSION

Returns received by the Fortuna
Extension Mining Company Justify
the belief of its officers that they
have a big proposition in their pos
session. The properties of the cor
p~oration are situated twenty-five
miles north of Searchlight. and con
sist of FIVE claims. embracing 100
acres. The claims are a direct eX-
tension Of, and endline the Fortuna
property. A ledge of 5000 feet
in length, probably from the Fortu-
ma, has been opened up by surface
work, and there is other develop
ment work to the extent of 400 feet.
The ledge outcrops for the full length
of the two claims. The Fortuna vein
itself has been developed by the
sinking of two shafts 800 feet apart
and the shafts have been in pay ore
continuously. One streak of three
feet runs about 800 feet TO the ton.
Forty sacks of high-grade are piled
up. No stopping whatever has been
done, the mere development work
being sufficient to convince the own
ers of what they have Some of the
assays run as high as S400 ounces
of silver, and from SO to 500 in
gold.
The property is reached by the
Santa Fe or Salt Lake roads to
Searchlight, from which point the
mines are twenty-five miles distant
The Colorado river is three miles
further. the stream being navigable
from nine to ten months out of the
year. The ore will be shipped tc

Diamond

The showing made by the Diamond
Bullfrog Company during the past
year is demonstrated by the large
amount of development work done
to the extent Of more than 1000 feet.
The incline shaft has been sunk to
a depth below the 400-foot level,
with a large amount of crosscut
work having been done. In order to
expedite the development Of the
mine, and to facilitate and lower the
cost of production, the company is
running a tunnel in the east side of
the mountain to intercept the shaft
below the 500-foot level. 1t is also
believed that the tunnel, in the
course of 5000 feet which the law
provides, will cut a number of addi-
tional veins which will add greatly
to the value of the property. The
mine is being rapidly developed in
both the shaft and the tunnel by eff
fcient management, blocking out a
large tonnage for shipment. A unique
feature in the development of the
mine is that all the ~crosscuts and
the shaft are in good ore, showing
various assays as high as $500 per
ton.
