Comstock that bring mining dis
trict favorably before the public and
keep it there. 1t is production OF a
mine that counts and when ii has
been sufficiently developed to insure
a long continued output, a growing
confidence in the property and in the
mineral belt in which it is located
is bound to be the ultimate result
Ramsey district is possessed of
number OF rich mining properties,
that are spread over large area, in
fact some wonderful shOwings. The
Ramsey COmstock mine is one of it's
choice properties that is in the field
to stay and it is. going to do much
toward keeping this particular belt
IN favored notice for long period
OF years. There is great prosperity
ahead for Ramsey district and this
mine is going to help make it.
Wakover
The Walkover mine has been pro-
ducing as pretty specimens as ever
came out of the ground lately Pieces
of quartz are on exhibition around
town that are filed with gold, and
! the entire vein is showing in the
breast of the drift richer ana wiGer
than ever. Some of the ore returns
assays running into fancy figures,
while any of it will assay into the
hundreds and they are breaking it
down and sacking the entire vein
just as it comes out. They are fast
getting pile of sacked ore on the
dump and will have shipments on
the road before !ong. Quite pile OF
loose ore is set aside that is to be
included in the shipments and they
Will have men sacking it soon.
A shaft from the tunnel level is
already well started. 1t is down 10
or II feet and will be steadily lower
ed to great depth. They have start
ed off with the intention of prosecut-
ing thorough and systematic develop
ment of the Walkover mine and this
choice property will be known as one
Of the permanent working mines of
this district from now on.
Such remarkable surface showing
as is seen at this property is rarely
/, found.,A dixie is present on the
ground for the entire claim length
, and on each end can be followed for
many hundreds of feet. Rich pam
nings have been made from these
, surface ores for a great distance,
, not only throughout the length of the
Walkover claim, but on other ground
adjoining. Except for the Ramsey
, COmstock ledge, there are no proper
, ties in the district that can show
more promising conditions than this
, to go ahead with the knowledge that
: ruch surface ore is present the entire
, length of the claim and underground
as we'll
An upraise from the tunnel level tt
surface will be started shortly. The
\ company has hoist and will place
{ ores up to surface when the shaft
t is complete. More men are to be pu
S on at once and many improvements
e made attendant upon the commence
/, ment of permanent work. The com
| pany will undertake development il
$ the most active sort of way, having
;. the strongest kind of backing will
i which to do it, as well as a member
e ship composed of practical and ener
t getic mining men.
r The Walkover mine is another 0
It the properties located on what i:
e known as the north belt, that has un
S covered high grade ore in good quan
e titles. About three claim lengths t.
" the east the Ramsey Comstock an,
r Ophir mines are located, the mos
e prominent of the elder mines alOn
5. that belt. Frequent finds of rich SUI
is face ore are made around that par
n of the district, as for instance
e strike made on the Golden Eyele
e claim last week, when some very ricI
IS quartz was found in a 14-foot ledge
Is Whether it is because the mine
4 along the north ledge system ar,
e more attractive or the place is jus
,r naturally rich, it seems to be tn
d most favored spot for prospectfors
n and every few days new finds ar
made.
