The shaft is down about 12O feet on an
incline of thirty degrees, with drift in
100 feet from the 105-foot level. The
shaft and drift are both in ore and SACK
ing is going on from both places. and
Mr.. Nelson estimates that it will run
better than $100 to the ton. One carload
Of ore has been shipped.
The Bullfrog Miner, published at Rhy-
olite, announces that the townsite of
Rhyolite is to be surveyed by the gov
ernment and the old town of BulIfrog
is to be wiped off the map. w. o.
Owens Of the government service is in
charge of the work. Mr.. Owens stated
that 1t will take about six months to
complete the survey. There are $50 acres
in the Rhyolite townsite proper. He will
survey the Beatty townsite, and he has
an assistant now in Goldf1eld for the
same purpose. Goldfield and Columbia
are also to be merged.
High Grade Ore
The Denver lode of the Tramp Con-
solidated broken into last week is get
ting bigger and richer with every stroke
Of the pick. The entire width of the
shaft is in high grade shipping ore, with
the footwall somewhere out in the un-
mi IL
grade, and there certainly is dozen
feet of good milling ore out toward the
foot. At the extreme continuance of the
proven rich streak, at six feet from the
hanging wall the ore is fully as good as
any other point, and there is no valid
reason for supposing that 1t has all
come into the shaft.
Slight copper stains are noticeable in
the quartz this week. 1t does not ap-
pear in streaks but rather in punches.
The rock where the green appears will
all run about $500 to the ton. The ore
is in places heavy in sulphides, and
every piece yet examined shows entire
faces of gold plaster. The precious
metal comes in coarse punches, and
picked samples may be selected from
| every bucketful that will run over $1QQ6
| per ton.
Malcolm Macdonald and L. A. Park
| interested with Charles M. Schwab in
the Greenwater district, are reported 10
have closed $4,000 cash deal for the
purchase of the Rabbits Foot group of
claims in the Rosebud district, Nevada.
Tho deal follows other big buys in that
district, among which are the Brown
Palace group. recently purchased at
cost of $250,000, and the Big Six group,
also purchased at large price. 1t Is
hot ahao
made at least partly in the interest of
Charles M. Schwab, as the two investors
are heavily interested with him in west
ern mining.
The investment of the Rabbits Foot
group included four claims-The Lady,
The Gent, The Butt-in and The Rab-
bits Foot. They are located near the
other properties recently purchased, and
their development is expected to result
in general advantage to the entire dis
trict. The claims were originally owned
by e. L. Gunnell of Lovelock and r.
TidWelI and associates.
