The Baer Bros. have a number of
mining claims throughout the district
and have been doing considerable work
on them during the past year. They
have some very nice looking ore which
averages well in gold. Most of their
claims are situated in the Black canon
district.
George Holland is operating several
claims in the Twelve Mile section and
is making good headway in developing
them. Denver people are interested
with Mr.. Holland. Very little has been
done of late owing to surface water
driving them out. AS soon as they are
able to cope with the water these claims
will be extensively developed. Some
very good looking ores have been taken
out and the company is very much
pleased over the showing made.

The Derby mine is working small

Gilpin observer., 1908-01-02

In this section of the county mining
has been at standstill for the past two
or three months owing to the fact that
all the properties, or nearly all, were
holding back waiting for the erection of
the concentration which the Evergreen
Gold & Copper Mines company contem-
plates building and which N, ans a Won
derful boost for this section of the coun-
ty. There are several owning claims in
and around Apex who will be greatly
benefited by the proposed concentrator
as the ore is of a low grade quality and
it would not pay to have the same treat
ed in Black Hawk as the cost of hauling
would be too great. Therefore, much
is expected of the Evergreen people.
All are looking forward to the time
when the concentration will be running
in full blast and all the properties will
have resumed operations. Grading out
for the plant has been commenced, but
operations at the Evergreen mine were
suspended some time ago. The COM
pany was undecided as to whether a
smelter or concentrator would be best
TO treat their ores and in the meantime
the property closed down pending the
actions of the company, with the result
that the concentration was decided upon.
1t is to have daily capacity of 60 tons
and will be modern and automatic.
When the plant is completed opera
tions at the mine will be carried on on
large scale. This property is famous
for its copper ores. running as high as
80 per cent copper, and large amount
has been sorted in the ore house and is
awaiting treatment. w. H. Grayson is
president of the company and puts in
good deal of his time at the mine. The
pumps were kept busy keeping the
water down until a short time ago,
which was useless expense and they
were pulled out. Missouri and Illinois
parties are heavily interested.
The Metha property on Montana hill,
was worked by Wheeling, West Vir-
ginia parties. They sunk the shaft to n
depth of 200 feet and extended levels
Good ore was encountered in all of its
workings. A shaft building and plant

which run as high as 400 tons monthly.
This is mainly milling ore. The COM

feet.
Sinking and drifting has been prose-
cuted on the Lillian during the past
twelve months and the mine is looking
good.
A small force of men has been engag-
ed developing the Hampton group and
this year the property will make large
shipments.
The Gibson and Star of the West
properties of the Esculapian Gold Min
ing company have been shipping some
ore, notwithstanding the fact that most
of the operations have consisted of de-
velopment.
The Morning Star has made a very
favorable showing lately and at present
good ore is being shipped from this
mine. Manager Stevens says if the ore
continues as rich as it has been during
the latter part of 1907 he wouldn t trade
the Morning Star for the best mine in
Goldfeld.
Rich Hughes has lease on the Fed
eral and is working a small force of
men. Frequent shipments are being
made from here.
Numerous surface improvements have
been made and considerable under
ground work has been done on the
Mabel group, owned by the vigilant
Mining & Milling company. Machinery
has been placed at the top of the shaft,
in the tunnel. Some good ore bodies
have been opened up and ore giving as
say values of 500 to the ton has been
taken out.
