The fault in the Great Western mine
Of the Garfield group near Nina. has
been picked up. In the ledge found.
three assays have been made and they
run respectively SOL. $40 and $3.50.
This fault was the principal n which
caused the old millionaire English cor
poration, known as the Hampton Plains
Exploration company. to shut down the
whole Garfield group. which happened
eighteen years ago. There was a like
fault in the Atherton mine of the same
group. lying the first claim to the north
ward OF the Great Western. The old
company did not give up until after it
had expended many thousands of dollars
in trying to locate the lost ore. but II al
ways crosscut to the southwark.
Some months since the group was
taken over by a company at the head Of
which is f. @. Minard. and under the
advice Of J. w. Chandler. jr., and Pro-
fessor Jenny, the work of picking up
both lodges was undertaken.
The Atherton was found after a cross
cut had been driven twenty-five feet
north. Yesterday IL was learned that
the Great Western had picked up the
and the ore was very rich.
Mr. Minard states tina the ledge as
yet is but two feet wide and from it's
dip he believes 1t to be but a segment.
II was found by raising only thirty feet.
Mr.. Chandler expected to strike it IN
about fifty feet.
In the days when the Hampton Plains
company operated the science of faults
was not as well understood as now. The
experiences in the Tonopah mines have
invaluable in Nevada. and had a
great deal TO do with finding the Ather-
ton and Great Western ore bodies.

r1HD VALUABLE ORE
AT xEANE sPRIN0s

Grace & Sharrock. who have been
working on the Hartford Montana near
Keane springs. made a good strike a
few days ago on an adjoining claim
which they own then selves. They
brought in rs pounds of ore. some of
which returned an average of s157 to
the ton in gold. Most of the material
which they brought in shows free gold
to the naked eye.
They have exposed the shoot for a
distance OF 100 feet. and they say IL car
ries an average width of from 3 to 4
feet.
The location Is in a section which has
been ~prospected for several years. and
the particular spot where the discovery
was made has been traversed by miners
and prospectors many times without at
tracing attention. The owners have re-
turned with the intention of further de-
~veloping their discovery.-Bullfrog
