Two shafts on the property of the
Yerington Copper Mountain company
are in good ore, the one on the Lydia
claim having an 1S-inch vein from the

timed down. There is a four-foot vein
of milling grade ore in this shaft which
carries stringers of high grade. 1t was

developments are looked for at any

A fve-foot ledge of gold bearing ore
has been encountered on the group of
claims owned by John Schell and son.
The property is situated about a mile
and a half south of town and promises
to become one of the best in the district.
Lease No. 2 IN the Goldbank claim has
encountered a body of high grade ore at
a depth of 20 feet. Frank Neff, former
owner of the lease. had but recently
sold his interest for a moderate sum.

Old Mine Is Found

In looking for lodges about eight
miles north of the Bamberger strike at
Gold Circle an old shaft was discovered
a few DAVIS ago. So far the shaft has
not been ~prospected as it is filled with
dirt and brush. 1t is hard to tell
whether there is a ledge there or not.
but indications point to the fact that the
shaft is at least fifty feet deep. The
find was made accidentally as the open
ing was covered with a growth of sage
brush and could not be distinguished
from other parts of the hillside. If ore
was taken out of the shaft 1T has been
all hauled away as there is no indication
of metal bearing rock near the shaft. 1t
is believed by many of the prospectors
in camp that he find is an important one,
as there are stories in circulation of lost
mines in that section. Some years ago
a man died in the county hospital at
winnemucca who has ~prospected In the
Souaw valley section for a number OF
years and whenever he visited town he
showed fabuiously rich gold ore. Where
he got the ore nobody knew and when he
died the secret was buried with him.
Many nave looked for the place whence
the rich gold ore came. but without sue
cess. The shaft which was found a few
DAYS ago may be the lost mine from
which he got his rich gold ore. 1t will
only be a few days when this fact will
be determined, as the shaft will be
cleared out and prospected.

General Manager c. B. Hebron of the
Shandon Bells came in from camp the
first of the week, and reports that water
has been encountered in the shaft on the
Mountain Rose, which has now reached
a depth of 80 feet. The surface crop
pings on the Mountain Rose indicate an
immense ledge, and careful sampling
has returned good values in copper, gold
and silver. The shaft was sunk some
distance from the big vein. and il the
dip is uniform the ledge will be cut at
the 100-foot level. A 25-hor;e power

ing of water at that depth is taken as a
favorable indication. According to the

of a much richer grade. The company
