Very few mines in this state can
boast Of the productiveness Of the
Ramsey COmstOck. It's development
up to date has proved the rich ore
chutes can be relied upon. 1t is but
matter of sinking and prosecuting
and those same rich veins show forth.
Drifting on them at the 60 foot level
showed their presence 80 feet either
way from the crOsscut and the north
drift on the middle vein is in even
richer ore than was encountered in
the crOsscut.
A Great s15 ledge.
When the slopes finally break out
the high grade there will be still left
a ledge Of ore Of tremendous value as
a milling proposition. The ledge from
wall to wall is n feet wide. The ore,
the whole distance, averages better
than $1,000 per ton, gold. 1t needs
but a moments thought to realize the
immensely of the product of body CT
ore of these dimensions.
What is already blocked out will
keep running a 500 ton capacity mill
a long time and every new crosscut
opens UP just that much more.
The great Ramsey Comstock mine
alone, is a property Of sufficient size
to support a community of consider
able proportions and its proven dim
ensions are further evidence of the
permanency and long continued out
put of ore. The big mine is bound to
contribute literally to Nevada's out
put and to the future prosperity OF
the Ramsey district,
On the Ratter No. 2
Sinking on the Rather No. 2 mine,
the Ramsey Mining Company's prom
ising property, has developed a strong
flow of water. So much SO that the
whim and buckets are inadequate to
keep the workings drained and at
the same time makes economical sink
ing operations possible. In conse-
quence it it is necessary to secure bet
ter equipment. superintendent Rob-
inson states it is the intention to at
once secure a hoist, either steam or
gasoline, and use a skip for raising
the water and ore. In few days ar
rangements will be completed for the

as soon as it is installed the mine
will resume operations with rush.
/ Up to the time Of discOntinuing
work at the mine the ore showing in
the shaft was, OF excellent character
and but for the water coming in would

foot level where a crosscut was tC

! NO time will be lost in securing new
equipment and an endeavOr will be
made to catch up the 'ost time.
Little Joe Mining Company
. Word is received from the DignO
witty Exploration company that the
incorporation of the Little Joe Minin2
company is near cur.pletion and tha
the group recently purchased by c
L. DIgnoWity, because: of its choice
location near the great DagO No. :
will soon be under active operation
The company proposes systematic ant
thorough development of the grOunl
and it is likely they will uncover some
very good values within short timt
Of commencing work The ledge il
prominent and no trouble viii be eX
perienced getting the workings int,
ore. On every side Of the group prop
cites which have have undergone an
sort of development have shown t.
good advantage. The great Dago Nc
dixie lying directly east of the grou
is evidence enough of the minera
bearing qualities of the zone an
every inducement is offered to prose
cute LIBERAL and thorough develop
} ment on the property.
