owned by the Grutts and Van Dorm;
and many other properties where
there has been the least surface ero-
sion. The vein of the Murray lease,
owned by the Rawhide Mining and
Reduction Company, is exposed at
much lower altitude than the others
referred to, and therefore the vein
matter was entirely silicified, and, In
fact, consisted of pure quartz, twen-
ty-five feet in width, stained with
sulphides. 1t was the condition of
this vein which first led ME to be-
lieve that the other veins of the camp
would improve with depth.
THE assertions sometimes heard
to the effect that Rawhide has rich
spots, but no veins, is an absolute
proof that the party making such as
sertions has either never been on any
of the main properties of the dis
trict, or is absolutely ignorant of
what constitutes a vein The veins
in the camp are well marked by silic-
flied rock between two distinct walls,
and may be traced. internationally,
along the surface for miles.
The veins are. practically all
parallel. having general northeast<
erly and southwesterly strike. The
veins vary in width. at the surface.
from two TO twenty-five feet Ia
width. There is no doubt that there
will be an immense tonnage OF mill
ing ore in the camp and from the
amount of high grade sacked on the
dumps. there is now every reason to
believe that II will be high grade
shipping camp.
