SAMPLER AT HAZEN
READY FOR ORE MAY 10

By May Is the new sampling works
of the Western Ore Purchasing com
pany at Hazen will be in operation.
Such is the statement of Charles Sny-
der. anage who was here this morn
ing. says the Sun.
The plant will have a capacity OF
300 tons a day, which while not as
large as that at Miller, will be on a
different plan. 1t will have storage
bins and the means of taking care OF
ore pending its treatment if business
is rushing. The plant will have cost
$50. 900 by the time it is completed.
1t will handle practically all the
shipping ores of Nevada outside OF
those Of Tonopah and Goldfeld. 1t
will take in the shipments from as far
south as Keller and as far east as
Seven Troughs, Gold Circle and other
new camps of that part of the state.
It will also handle the Rawhide ores.
Mr.. Snyder says that while Tonopah
in a business way is quiet, the physical
conditions of the mines were bet
ter. There is at least five years ore
ahead and the camp is in its finest
feathers right nov. He says it is con
stantly improving, with development
that is being pushed by the leading
properties. Mr.. Snyder is one of the
best, if not the very best, authority in
the state ON that question and his
words relative to the fine showings in

SPLENDID sHoWINGs IN

Good reports continue to come from
the T~ransvaal district. On the Trans

by AL Meyers and associates, a big
body of low milling ore has been
opened up. The shaft is being sunk
deeper, and Superintendent George
Probasco says he expects to find ore OF
value to permit shipping. This prop
erty has remarkably rich ore on the
surface, and is equipped with a good

Rawhide is the nearest camp to rail

The first test of milling ore treated
in the camp came from the dumps of
the leased mines. The lot weighed 14E
tons and had an average value of $34
per ton.
The high grade ore runs into big
values. An extraordinary proof of this
is the recent panning of two and a
half pounds of ore which yielded $40

Tuscarora, which startled the world
with its tale of riches 80 years ago, is
sharing in the general reviva! which is
now transforming northern Nevada and
bids fair to rival Gold Circle in the in
terest which is being aroused in its
possibilities. For many years 1t has
remained as deserted as the grave, but
within the last few months Reno min
ing men have secured control of some
of the principal properties in the camp
and they will be opened up ct once.
PAYMASTER TAKEN OVER
Practically the first property to be
secured after this long lapse of time is
the Paymaster group, recently taken
over by a Nevada company formed to
exploit it. The property is the south
west extension of the famous old
Navajo. which produced 100000 in
the early days, and consists of eight
claims. 1t is developed by a series of
shafts of from 80 to 200 feet in depth,
and it is said to show large bodies of
ore which will average in the neighbor-
hood of $50.
CAMPS EARLY HISTORY
The revival brings back to the men,

of the camps phenomenal production.
1t was discovered and worked in the
early '70s, the first work being done
upon a great vein carrying high silver
values. associated with an appreciable
value in gold. a product which closely
resembles that of the Comstock lode.
At that time the mines could only
be worked for the very high grade ores,

The new management of the Gold
Bullfrog, 1t is stated on the authority
of General Manager III. W. Preston, will
install a 10-stamp mill to replace the
present equipment, which, it is claimed,
is not satisfactory, and does not save
the values. The present mill, which is
after the Chilean pattern, has been
pronounced, after thorough testing, un
successful, and has been closed down.
ORIGINAL RUNS HIGH
A letter from Senator Samuel ".
Newell, superintendent of the Original
Bullfrog. states that the shipment made
a few days ago from the property re-
turned 1855 ounces in gold, 119 ounces
silver, or 1916 a ton.
Senator Newell says that in addition
to the lease already let it is probable
that the company will let several
others.

a full face of ore in the drift from the

LADD MOUNTAIN HIGH GRADE
Yesterday the high grade streak in
the Bacigaulpi-L ogland lease on the
National Bank widened to a foot in the
drift. 1t shows the characteristic
hematite spots, with a liberal amount
of free gold. The drift is in 90 feet
from the shaft, and the high grade
stringer is one of the largest yet opened
on Ladd mountain. The entire face
shows milling ore, and by slight sort
ing the stringer will average at least
5000 to the ton. 1t is fine looking ore,
to say the least. The free gold is PLAIN
to be seen. and there can be no question
about its being rich.
