MINING, MARKETS AND METAL
SEVEN TROUGHS HAS
MORE BIG STRIKES
THEREIN AND FAIRVIEW BET
TER THAN EVER-ROCK THAT
is HALF GOLD is CLAIMED.

Seven Troughs, New, Nov. 3.-The
Therier and seven Troughs Fairview
are looming into greater prominence
than ever on account of startling ore
developments in these properties that
have started them all on the rapid
shipping route during the last week.
On the Therien in the incline at
the Stoker lease of the Seven
Troughs Ivor Mining and Leasing
company conditions have developed
within a week, according to Manager
Emmett x. Olson of Salt Lake, prac-
tically duplicating those in the lowest
levels of the famous Mazuma Hills
mine here. n system of high grade
ore shoots has developed that reveals
at depth of $50 feet specimen rock
and high grade in quantities that
have startled the camp. With, as yet,
room for only a half dozen men the
lessees are sacking three tons of ore
a day, under the most unfavorable
mining conditions, that will go bet
ter than $500 ton. This is a heavy
iron sulphide ore with an excess of
free gold that shows in the quartz
and tale in generous quantities. Much
of it will yield from one to five dol
lars a pound The first ore shoot has
already yielded half car load ship
ment of ore and CHER shoots are be-
ing opened up further down the in
cline that are richer and stronger
than the first.
The Stoker lease incline is within
seventy-five feet of the Kindergarten
company's workings and it is along
the east and west vein that has al
ready made the kindergarten a ship
per and paying property that the
system of ore shoots occur, striking
westward and downward, it is pre-
sumed, entirely across the Therier
property. The ore deposit is identi-
cal with that of the Mazuma Hills.
showing the same strength and rich
ness, the same hanging and foot wall
and the same sulphide matrix for
holding the gold, with an oXidized
everything stratum of quartz porphyry
that makes a high grade of ore with
depth. With the shaft men and the
men in the west drift on the 800
foot level opening up richer ground
every shift the leasing company has
promised to make it's first shipment
within a week.
1t has remained for the Seven
L
400 feet level the most sensational
body of high grade ore yet seen in
the district Eighteen inches of rock
that will go better than 100000
ton and eighteen inches more of rock
that will go better than $1,000 ton
is the startling summary that the
president of the company, l.. A.
Friedman, makes, after the working
force has developed the new find
quietly for nearly two weeks. In
proof of this statement Mr.. Friedman
showed in Seven Troughs today
sack of ore that has convinced all
who have seen it that there is ore in
the Fairview that will go considera-
bly, better than 100000 a ton. Many
of the specimens are at least half
gold in weight, being literally as
heavy as galena with an excess of the
yellow metal. Fifty sacks, said
Mr.. Friedman, "of such ore have al
ready been sacked" Many of the
specimens are great boulders of
quartz serrated with broad bands of
gold.
No halt has been made in the Fair
view shaft at the 400 foot level. nor
will any halt be made at the 500. ac-
cording to Mr.. Friedman. Conditions
at the 400 foot level have more than
fulfilled the highest hopes that have
ever been entertained for this dis
trict aud the Fairview has entered the
list of real deep mining properties.
In the meantime small force is pre-
pairing a shipment on the 400 foot
level, which, however, will not be
made until after November II. when
an option on 400 900 shares of Fair
view stock to Los Angeles capitalists
for $4,000 will have expired. Re-
garding this option, Mr. Friedman
said that the mine has just been ex-
amined and the ore on the different
levels has been sampled by agents of
the proposed purchasers. The Fair
view shaft is now down ASS feet
