LAST CHANCE
No less than i've lessees are working
in rood ore on the Last Chance claim
and the adjoining property on the north.
the Kimbali-G Gould Fraction. On block
No. 1 Morrisy and associates are in ore
at a depth OF 10 feet. the entire bottom
of the shaft showing milling values. If
sorting were resorted TO a fair tonnage
of shipping ore could be sacked. but
until more development work is done
this will not be the policy Of the iessees-
On blocks 8 and 6 Jack Crane and ASSOC
ciates have some exceptionally rich ore
with an entire shaft OF good milling
rock. KimbaIl and Gould are operating
block No. 2 and also two workings on
their ground. all of which are yielding
some very rich ore. In its every feature
the Last Chance is proving of very great
Importance as an exceptionally promis-
ing prospect with every assurance of
making a big mine. The same Is true
of the Kimball-Gould fraction.
MuoENT-cAME1oN LEASE
On Tuesday the Nugent-Cameron
lease on block 5 Of the Happy Day claim
came into a full shaft OF good milling
ore. For some distance the SHAFT was
in country rock. the leasers planning to
cut the ledge on it's dip at an approx
mate depth of so feet. Their calcula-
lions were materially upset. however. as
they had not figured on a considerable
widening of the vein. At 80 Feet the
character of rock in which they were
working showing a marked change'
quantities of quartz Pannings
indicate high grade mill values, the en-
tire bottom of the workings peing IN
ore. Sinking will be continued without
Interruption to the 50-foot level. where
extensive lateral development work Will
be prosecuted. 1t looks very much as
though the lease will soon join the
rapidly growing list of producers.
rHrnrEEM LEAsERs ON Poo1 BOT
Thirteen sets of lessees are working
with great energy on the Poor Boys lying
northeast of Grutt hill. Three of these
are in good ore and the showing of the
nroperty generally is more than encour-
aging. On the wyrick lease a shoot of
s75 ore IA inches in width, Is being
opened up extensively. Nelson and as
SOCRATES are ldkln6 W ooNh
from an s-inch streak that has been
opened to a depth of 80 feet. The Mon
tana lease is showing a full shaft or
ore that pans well and will hold TO a
good milling average. For some time
the Poor Boys have been attracting a
great deal of interest because of the re-
suits following development work on
the part of the leasers and the property
is more than coming up to the expecta-
lions of those directly interested.
TRuITT LEASE
Every round of shots shows improve
ment on the Truitt lease on the Rose
bury property, under bond to Goldheid
CAPITALISTS. The shaft on the property
has attained a derth of 20 feet, where
at least four feet Of good ore Is peing
mined. This is in addition to the IL
feet of ore that was cut in the crosscut
near the surface before the shaft was
commenced. While no assays have been
taken recently the paintings made every
day prove that the ore is becoming rich
err with every foot of depth gained and
that the lease is certain to prove a big
producer.
GOOD ORE on d. q D.
At a depth of 35 feet In the SMART
Walker and Meyrick. leasing on the
Davis and Dunning claim, have opened
three feet of $50 ore. The character or
the ore is Identical with that on Balloon
hill and in other sections of the camp
and pans free in good quantities. The
find was made on the dip of the vein.
Sinking will be continued with greater
dispatc until a depth of so feet shall
L-..- toor ,aaohad What a fhOrOuRh
plan of lateral development will be
prosecuted.
