as Round Mountain is concerned but
also one of the largest lodges known in

ledge matter brought 30 light.
For a width of l75 feet across it is
possible to secure paintings of free gold.

Still more remarkable is the fact that
there are twenty feet of tale which will

CONSOLIDATED GREATEST
GOLD MINE IN THE WORLD

westerly bore is progressing s~outherly and is advanced 600
feet from the Combination shaft. The splendid develop-
ments that are taking place there are ample evidence that
the main Combination vein traverses Combination 2 and 3
and will enrich the half dozen leasers who have recently
erected gallows frames and are going to the depths.
General Superintendent Hampton of the Consolidated
properties is getting a tremendous showing on the 6Oo.foot
level of the Mohawk. The ledge at that point shows a
streak sixteen feet in width that averages $73 to the
ton. Outside of the high grade zone there is a world of
milling ore.
General Manager Mackenzie will have this find thor
oughly proven up, but in the meantime win concentrate
work on the Claremont shaft on the Red Top, which will be
sunk to the 1900 foot level as rapidly as possible. At the
$50 level there is reason to believe that the main ore zone
of the ledge will be encountered and considerable lateral
work will be done there. At the 1900 level the territory
win be most thoroughly explored. If the anticipated re
suits are secured there an additional hundred stamps viii

NEW1OUSE TO INTEREST
CAPITAL IN RAWHIDE MINES

p. De Wolf, Special Repre- sentative Of
manager of the st. Ives lease on the
Queen, and of the Rawhide Mining
company, informs your representative
that the last mentioned corporation is
prepared to erect a 50-ton mill in this
district for the reduction of ores from
the c~ompany's Last Chance claim, and
from the St. Ives lease. Construction
will begin about July /. The funds
necessary for carrying out the project
were subscribed by Atlantic seaboard
capitalists 1t is the intention to erect
the plant south of the townsite at a
point about midway between the
sources of water and ore supply, there
by reducing the cost of pumping the
former and of hauling the latter. In
dependent engines win be used for the
rock crusher and rolls. Gold reclama-
tion will be by means of zamalgamation,
the company's engineers having ascer-
tanned by exhaustive tests that the
ores are absolutely free milling, and
that they can be treated in the manner
outlined with a loss of less than $2.35
in tho tailings.
"Why we have ore enough in sight
at the 50-foot level of the st. Ives lease
on the Queen to supply the mill with
grist for a period of six months, to say
nothing of the possibilities in the lower
levels, and eliminating from the reek
oning the large ore bodies which are be-
ing developed on the estate of the Raw
hide Mining company. All the ore ex-
posed at the 50-foot point at the st.
Ives will break to a high milling aver
age, and it obtains practically to sur
face. There is a good bit of high
grade mixed with it.. We think it will
easily net $50 the ton, break of the
mine. The st. ives shaft is now down
200 feet, where a crosscut is being run
out to contact with the Kearns No. .
ledge.
At the Morrissey lease on the Last
Chance claim of the Rawhide Mining
company the men are developing a
magnificent body of milling ore. In the
lower level, a depth of 100 feet, it is
showing a width of 90 feet. Every
pound now being piled on dump will
net the ~lessees a profit as soon as re-
duced at the company's mill.

mt the bottom Of Seven Troughs canvon
and running down from a point near
the entrance of their tunnel to a depth
from the surface of about thirty-sis
feet, ore is being encountered along a
hanging wall as valuable as the riches,
ore the Mazuma Hills mine has rro.
duced. Immediately following the dis.
covery the hosting plant Of the ~lessees
arrived and is being installed to take
advantage of the find.
Specimens shown from the strike
created considerable excitement. They
are a sulphide quartz and tale exccs.
sively rich in free gold and are identi.
cal with the Mazuma Hills mine ore
taken from the vein several hundred
feet north. At the place where the
picture rock occurs there is two fee. of
quartz of a mixed character showing
good values. The quartz is of a massive
character interspersed with a streak of
sugary quartz.
The encountering of good values in
the tunnel some time ago led to the
sinking of the Wine and the opening
up of the high grade body during the
last few days.
Up to date the Potter & Arnett lease
shows nearly three hundred feet of
work. Over one hundred and ninety
feet of this consists of tunnel work
which explores the vein up to within
thirty feet of the Mazuma Hills mine
workings. In covering this distance,
the vein has been strictly followed and
shows low grade values the entire dis
tance with occasional punches or shoots
of ore of a higher grade.
