Remember that Goldfeld Mohawk and Combina-

RAWHIDE TARANTULA

In offering to our clients and to the public the
stock of the RAWHIDE TARANTULA MINING
COMPANY we are granting an opportunity of be-
coming one of the owners in a property of which
every citizen of the Rawhide District is justify
proud-a property that is proving itself a mine from
the first stroke of the pick which broke down the
surface cropping that proved to be ore of paying
quality. The shaft which the RAWHIDE TARAN.
TULA MINING COMPANY is now sinking is all in
ore averaging above $40 per ton, exclusive of the
fabulously rich streak which gives values of from
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1908-03-14

$4,000 to $4,000 per ton. This rich streak was but a
seam at the surface. At a depth of six
feet it averaged from one to three inches in width.
1t is much more than probable that fifty feet in depth
will prove this to be a bonanza body of ore. Mills
are being rapidly constructed in Rawhide for the
reduction of the ores of the district. All value above
$40 per ton will be net profit to the Company.
We reproduce above facsimile of an assay GER
tifcate showing the returns on the samples taken
across an ore body five feet in width within six feet
of the surface of the ground. Sample No. l repre-
sents two feet of ore. Sample No. 2 represents a
streak of ore from one to three inches In width.

Mining Operator, Goldfeld.

CIV weeks ago we sent into the Rawhide District
nomber of the Goldfield Brokerage Company for
=. nurpose of making a careful and thorough inves-
i,stiop of the merits of that camp. After a ten days
.t 70 the district he reported that the surface show
;,cs were favorable in the extreme, with every in
aao.t;on and probability that Rawhide would become
an Of the great gold and silver producers of Nevada
richest of all mineral sections of the world. In
.~.eordance, however, with the conservative policy of
tho Goldfeld Brokerage Company, he suggested
waiting further development before advising our
,Gents to invest in Rawhide securities.
A month later the same representative returned
~ Rawhide for further investigation, and we now 90
an record with the declaration that RAWHIDE is
THE GREATEST COLE AND SILVER CAMP
THAT NEVADA HAS EVER KNOWN AT A
SIMILAR STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT, and that
development has been advanced to the point where
the future of the district cannot longer be doubted
or Questioned. Goldfeld is today the greatest gold
camp on earth, but we believe that within the next
twelve months she must share that honor with Raw
hide. and it is by no means improbable that within
two years Goldfeld will be forced to surrender the
posihon of first rank of which she can so proudly
boast today.
