Santa Lorita.Carr Property.

Information has come to this city that
F. II. Symonds, of Providence, R. l., is
about to open the famous old Colorado
Carr properties under the leasing plan
so universally in vogue in this county.
A new compressor will be installed
within short time after final arrange
ments are made for the resumption of
work, and what other equipment or i'm
provements, should any be needed will
be supplied. The company intends to
open the property from the collar to the
bottom OF the shaft, work the levels and
open up new ore bodies. This will be
done by lessees, who will most readily
take ground in the various levels and
drifts, realizing the splendid ore bodies
that exist in the Carr mine and the
opportunity afforded them for making
good, easy money. This manner Of de-
velopment will bring to the surface ores
the old company did not extract from
the upper workings. The sinking Of the
shaft to greater depth is also the inten-
tion Of the Santa Lorita people and the
old time activity on the top OF Bobtail
hill will be in evidence this summer be.

Drifting in Columbus.

Drifting is being prosecuted in the

to connect with the 45O foot level Of the
Lotus mine which is situated west OF the
above. The Lotus is owned by the same
company and it is expected will soon be
opened up with the rest OF their mines.
The Newhouse tunnel has almost CON-
pletely drained the Colun bus OF all the
water, it making very little now, and
in the Lotus the water is going down at
the rate OF from 10 to is feet every month
and is now to the 400 foot level. The
mine is 800 feet deep and after the water
has drained little more it is expected
that there will be things doing here.

The accompanying picture is repro.
duction of the Silver Dollar No. 2 shaft
house, situated in the lower Russell min
ing district. To the right of the shaft
house is the miners changing room and
blacksmith shop, below are the ore bins
and sorting rooms. Shoots are run from
the trestle above into the ore house and
the end is about thirty five feet high
which will give much ground for dump
ing the waste rock. North of here, or
rather below and in the gulch is situated
the famous Hampton mine which has
been one Of the best producers in the
county. Across the creek and a little
west On the side of the hill are situated
such noted producers as the Gulch, Pitts
burg and the Nottaway mines.
This mine is owned and operated by
VIM. Kirk of Russell Gulch, exclusively,
except for a small interest which is held
By Richard Hardy of Central City, and
he is now taking out some OF the best
ore discovered around here for some
time past.
We might mention also that belonging
to the same parties is the Old Silver
Dollar which is situated just over the
brow Of the hill, behind the Powers mine
in Willis gulch, and has record OF
many fortunes. Here there is a good
shaft house and plant of machinery with
a Cornish pump. This mine is soon to
be operated in connection with the first
mentioned and between the two much

is being confined to the 40 foot level.
Recently the men abandoned the mach

carload OF coal has been received this
week and the machines will again be
put into operation, when much greater
headway will be made and the force will
be considerably increased. In running
this level some good ore was uncovered

AMONG THE
APEX MINES
Much Activity Apparent in the Celebrated
Pine Creek Section.
MACKEY CYAAIDING PLANT
MAKES SUCCESSFUL TEST RUN

The Mackey mine ia working a small
force Of men at present and will increase
the number il the men can be procured,
seeming a scarcity in this section, there
not being enough idle men to meet the
needs OF the operators. The new mill
was started last Monday morning on a
test lot OF sixty tons of ore and it was
surprising how nicely everything worked
for the first time. A cleanup has not as
yet been made. The ore is fed into
crusher and from there goes to a self
feeder which feeds the stamps. The
solution OF cyanide goes through the
stamps with the ore, this solution being
kept in reserve in large tanks. There
are eleven tanks in all, and the values
are kept in constant motion until the
ready for the cleanup. A visit to this
plant is worth the time of anyone as
this is the only cyanide mill in the
county and is something out OF the or
dinary. 1t is hoped for the benefit of
the county as well as the Mackey people
that what is predicted for this new mill
will be up to the expectations Of the
management in the test run. AS soon
as the Mackey is running with full
force the mill will be operated constant
ly and cleanup will be made every
day. Charles F. Cuno is the cyanide
mill man and to him all the credit for
the arrangement Of this wonderful pro.
cess is due.

A visit was made this week to the
Rochester property on Utah hill and the
writer found that mine working small
force Of men for the present. Foreman
Fred Landis informs US that sinking
operations will commence about the
first Of next week, when two shifts will
be employed. At present they are
working in the 270-foot drift to the east
and are running crosscut to catch an
other vein which exists there, but for
the present this work will be abandoned
and work confined to the shaft. A lift
OF about fifty feet will be sunk, which
will open up more ground for stoping
and drifting purposes. The shaft is $50
feet deep and well timbered. c. E. Bar
rick, Of Denver, is manager OF this prop
erty and it is hoped the good ore that
is there and which has been opened up
heretofore will be encountered in enor-
nous bodies. This ore is very rich and
runs 62 per cent. in LEAD, carrying gold
and silver, as we'll as yellow copper iron.
The lift Of fifty feet will make the mine
about 205 feet deep. A large amount OF
ore is in the bins ready for shipment,
but the weather and condition OF the
roads will not permit OF its being trans
ported.

1t is reported that George Waite, Of
Apex, has opened up some very fine ore
in his tunnel north OF the Evergreen
property. In driving this tunnel it is
his expectations Of cutting the famous
Evergreen vein. just how far he will
have to go he is unable to state, but
those who are in a position to know,
say that he is not far of from bon.

Gilpin observer., 1907-02-28

At the 2OO-foot level OF the Evergreen
mine a large body OF ore was uncovered
this week, consisting mostly Of copper,
for which this property is famous. The
ore found seems to contain more values
and looks better than any yet encoun-
tered, and Foreman Shad Reid informs
the writer that the ore will run in the
neighborhood Of $3.50 ton. The Ever.
green has not been working very large
force OF men here OF late, as the future
operations Of the mine have been under
consideration by the stockholders. A
large amount OF development work is to
be done, and as soon as the weather will
permit work on the new smelter will
commence, which will be erected in the
creek just below the dump Of the mine.
Manager Walters is in the east at present
in conference with the members OF the
members OF the company as to the ex.
act operations Of the mine, and as soon
as he returns, which will be this week,
the working force will be increased and
once more this famous producer OF cop.
per ores will be working in full blast.
The Monopole tunnel, at the base Of
Utah hill, is in distance Of go feet and
in the breast small force OF men is
forging ahead. A further distance OF
twenty-five feet will be driven, when it
is expected that the vein looked for will
be encountered, at which time the force
will be added to generally. From this
tunnel and to the northeast another
tunnel has been run in distance OF GOO
feet, and 1t was here the terrible acci.
dent happened few years ago when
three men were smothered to death, and
has not been worked since. Some very
good quartz has been found In the main
tunnel since recent operations were com.
menced and 1t is expected the vein
which they are driving for will yield
Gilpin observer., 1907-02-28

in values. Last month jJanuary) a lot
OF 43 tons OF ore was shipped which av-
eraged about 553 to the ton. This was
good shipment considering that there
were only twelve miners working with
whimi for hosting apparatus. In Feb
ruary the force was increased to twenty
men, and this is to be increased daily.
Shipments for this month will be made
that will put the former ones to the bad,
about 100 tons will make up this run.
This months ore has been more care
fully sorted than before and there will
be three grades of the same. The first
will be SI5 ore, the second SO, while the
third class is not expected to run much
over S25 to the ton.
1t was thought that by this time a
larger plant of machinery would be in
stalled, but owing to some unavoidable
delays they have had to get along
with their small plant. After their boil
ers, engine and compressor have been in
stalled some machine drills will be put
in and sinking started.
The management informs us that part
les from the east, in Cleveland, Ohio
have been given 60 days option for an
one-half interest in the property and
negotiations will probably be closed be.
