LEVEL LOOKS VERY RICH IN
THE NINE.

T.. W. Walters, general manager of
the Giroux, spent yesterday in Ely.
In an interview with a News repre-
sentative, Mr.. Walters stated that the
loss by fire to the company would
not exceed $4,000.
When asked if the smelter would
be enlarged when they commenced
making repairs on the same, Mr..
Walters said that it was the inten-
ton of the company to enlarge the
smelter to such extent that it will
be harmonious with the concentrator.
At the present time the concentra-
tor is running through about 400
tons of ore daily. When asked as
to the big bodies of high grade ore
that have been opened up on the
1900 in the Alpha shaft, Mr.. Walters
said that he did not care to discuss
that Information from those in po-
sition to know is that the drift off

UNUSUAL NINE NEAR RENO.
Long Tunnel Is Nearing Rich Vein at
Great Depth.

Only II miles northwest of the
City of Reno. mine is being de-
veloped by the Peavine Mountain
Tunnel company, which is not with
out unusual features. NJ. c. Smith,
one of the large stockholders, who is
in this city, says, that from a sur
face cut 11'2 feet long and IL feet
deep, on the vein which is eight feet
between walls, the company has
shipped several carloads of ore which
ran from $50 to $50 ton, while
from shaft 260 feet deep 100000
of ore has been taken.
In the vein are occasional streaks
of Exceedingly rich ore, showing free
gold in chunks. One assay certificate
Exhibited by Mr.. Smith showed values
d $5,940 in gold, So ounces in sill
uand 2.5 per cent copper. Another
EAsSbf ore, which is 40 per cent iron
ass$ed $50 ounces in silver, $3.50
ifl old and % per cent copper.
<fwenty workings are all in ore,
Mr.. Smith says, the vein being a
assure in porphyry and shale. To
tap the ore bodies at depth tunnel is
being driven which is now in LOO
feet. 1t has about 800 feet further
to run to catch the vein, and it will
then have attained a depth from the
surface of 1000 feet. The owners
have no doubt that they will open a
remarkable mine.

IS IN
GOOD FORM

James H. Marriott, of OSceola, who
during the week returned from visit
to his family at Oakland, California.
in an interview with News repres-
alive. stated that conditions in Cali
fornia were improving very rapidly
and that money was getting much
easier all over the country
On the Amalgamated Mines and
Power Company al OSceola, Mr..
Marriott, who is superintendent of
the company, is working fifteen men.
He also has a force working on Baker
Creek. putting in dam to generate
power for the various mines at
Osceola.
On the California group of claims
belonging to the Amalgamated Mines
and Power company. he is having the
tunnel driven ahead as fast as posi-
BILE. This tunnel is in already 700
feet and is being run to develop the
San Pedro and Mable group of claims.
Mr.. Marriott says that he also has
men working on his tungsten prop
ETY., about | > miles south OF Osceola.
This property is looking fine, and he
has any amount of ore blocked out in
the mine and "a large tonnage on the
dump. This is said TO be the largest
tungsten property in the country.
Mr.. Marriott stated that Mr.. Goody
has completed the assessment work
on the group of claims that he holds
under option. and that in doing the
assessment work, he opened up some
nice bodies of ore on the different
claims. On the New Moon tunnel.
the owners are still driving ahead.
They are now in 100 feet and eX-
pect to run it in 1900 feet before
commencing to drift. There are
quite few other claims that are be-
ing developed at the present time,
and all have good showings. The
annual work has been done on most
of the claims in the district.
The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1908-12-30

is that done on No. 3 vein. This is
the vein running from the railway
track across the property and up the
hill, where the surface enrichment
has attracted much attention. 1t
runs at right angles to the main vein
on the property.
When the new company took over
the property, there had been taken
out of this vein approximately $780,
600. II has been developed by a long
open cut about 40 feet deep. The No.
3 shaft had been started at the top
of the. hill, and was % feet lower
than the open cut. Work had been
abandoned in this shaft but has
recently been resumed. The shaft
was cleaned out and with few shots
put in and the vein haS-now widened
out 10 four inches of ore. averaging
800 ounces of silver to the ton.
The vein improves with depth, and
this shaft will be sunk TO depth of
100 to $50 feet before drifting back
will then be done at this level This
vein has length of at least 500 feet.
Work is being prosecuted at the
University Mine, and by spring reg
ular shipments will doubtless be re-
sumed. A dozen men are now at
work on this property and the shaft
on No. vein is down about 80 feet.
1t will be continued to a depth of 100
or $50 feet before drifting will he
done. This is narrow vein, having
a surface width of between one and
two inches. but the ore shows up all
the way down. This is so promising
that Mr.. Watson is having new ore
house erected and good size head
frame built. With depth the vein
may be expected to widen. The ore
in ii so far has averaged over 5000
ounces of silver to the ton.
At the Princes steady development
work is being done. The main shaft
is being retimbered and sinking will
be continued TO depth of $50 feet.

During the meeting c. IL. White
man was appointed vice president to

resignation of c. X. Lord. who
resigned some months ago.
Mr.. Whiteman. who was appointed
vice president. was in Tonopah dur
ing the last summer with j. S. Aus
tin. president of the company, and
spent several weeks in examining the
property. He is thoroughly familiar
with every part of the big company's
holdings and in the position he has
been elected to fill will prove a valu-
able asset to the PERSONAL of the
officials
