GRANITE DISTRICT
IS MAKING GOOD
LEAsERS ARE SHIPPING ORE
FROM PROPERTIES IN THAT
DISTRICT.

Ed P. Graham, one of the pioneers
of Granite and brother of Curley.
Graham, came in from the north yes
terday and reports great activity in
the Granite district. Mr.. Graham
had the second tent up in Granite
after the Walker lake reservation
was thrown open and has been oper-
ating in that camp ever since. In
speaking of the camp yesterday Mr..
Graham said; II have been in every
mining camp in Nevada for the last
ten years and l firmly believe that
Granite has the best surface show
ings of any of them. The district is
about three and half miles long and
two miles wide and it has been
proben that this is in ore. There is
a ledge there that can be traced for
over 5000 feet upon which six leasers
are working and all have milling ore.
The Graham-Bfooks' lease, in which
l am interested, and Lease No. 2
made shipment Tuesday of twenty
tons each to Hazen and the ore will
average around 500 per ton. We
will make another joint shipment in
about ten days. That was the Sec
ond shipment made from the camp,
the first being made about three
weeks ago and was composed of
about forty-eight tons of ore which
averaged SAT to the ton.
The values are gold. / had an as
say made several days ago that went
$375.22 per ton, of which the 1915
was in gold and % cents silver The
day left we struck new ledge on
our lease, which is about eighteen
inches in width and will assay close
to 500 ton. Lease No. 4, which IL
just above my lease, has recently en-
countered a ten-inch vein, which will
go over $50 to the ton.
Work was expected to be started
today at Schurz on mill which will
handle the low grade ores of the
camp. We received telegraphic in
structions from San Francisco tina
the machinery for the mill had beer
purchased and was loaded on the
cars ready for shipment. A 10
stamp mill is also to be constructed
which will probably be built abou
one mile from the camp.
"A company has been formed b,
the leasers on the big ledge and the
fare now working on 40O-foot tun

they will tap the ledge as it has bee

tunnel is in about 200 feet at present
and work is being rapidly pushed.
THE town of Mountain View,
which is mile and a half from
Granite is progressing rapidly. They
have driven tunnel in on one of, the
properties about 27O feet and have
encountered four-foot ledge of high
grade, which will give returns of
500 ton. Several options have
been let on some of the properties,
among them being one of 500, 900
on the Wilson Gold Mining company.
"As soon as the mill is completed
and in running order the district will
take great leap and firmly believe
that it will be one of the biggest pro
ducing camps in the state of Me-
vada."
Mr.. Graham will return to Granite
in several days, having come to this
city on important business which de-
manded his attention.
