j. r. Davis, one of the heaviest
owners in the Round Mountain Mining
company, and also its president; J. p.
Lotus and j. p. Sweeney, director,
with Fred Siebert, a noted mining en-
gineer and former superintendent of
the Tonopah Mining company and
brother-in-law of Senator L. L.. Oddie,
visited the camp during the week and
made thorough inspection of the
wonderful Sunnyside mine, says the
Round Mountain Nugget.
Incidentally they took back with them
the result of a two-weeks cleanup
from the mill, which amounted to $14,-
430, extracted from q little .over 1000
tons of ore, the whole mass going
through the mill being somewhat bet
ter than $13 per ton.
Mr.. Lotus Said I'VE have been
putting through about "a tons of ore
every "a hours, but during the next
two weeks we do not expect our out
put will fall below 80 tons per day.
During the following 30 days arrange
ments will be completed to increase
the mills capacity to 100 tons daily,
which will mean a net daily yield after
all mining, milling and incidental ex-
penses are paid of $4,000 per month.
You are at liberty to quote me as
saying that after the next thirty days
when the mills and projects now near
ing completion are added to the faeil-
tiles we now have for turning out
bullion and with the remarkable ex-
traction of gold which the hydraulic
is doing Round Mountain will
yield during the next twelve months
81, ,250, 900, and when the mills which
are contemplated become assured this
figure will be materially increased"
Starts "Ace High"
M Cwaanau WIN haa uiSitad the
camp many times in the past, believes
that Round Mountain has the making
of one of the best camps in Nevada
and one which will be permanent and
hold its own with any which have been
discovered in Nevada. Mr. Sweeney
said: Il have just returned from
visit to San Francisco, and Round
Mountain, to use a sporting term,
stands ace high in the estimation OF
the brokers and investors of San Fran
CISCO"
Mr.. Siebert, who is making a report
on the various properties which Messrs.
Lotus and Davis are interested In, was
astonished at the wonderful richnesN
of the camp and the progress which
had been made.
Mr.. Davis, in speaking of the prop
critics, said: 1--WE are grinding out the
ore lay and night in our mill and we
| have several lodges, one OF which was
uncovered within two 1eet OF tne sur
| face. We have today a we'll defined
ledge with strong walls at depth of
| 400 feet. The values and size of the
ledge continue to increase with depth,
and at the 450 foot level our ore body
measures 20 feet in width. To all ap-
pearance the district seems to be
veined with a network of lodges which
run in every direction. In my opin-
ion Round Mountain has the making of
one of the best camps in Nevada and
| 1t is today the cynosure OF many
astern eyes, and eastern capital Is
seeking investment in that section"
The management of the Round
Mountain Mining company has never
sought publicity and has always main
| tained a policy of strict conservatism.
There are only 100000 shares of the
stock on the market and the 100000
shares of treasury stock will never
have to be touched.
