Wolf, Special Repre- sentative OF Inc ~
holds. and at the recently forfeited
Kearns No. = and Ogilvie- Reynolds
blocks. Likewise, a hoist has been or
dered for the famous Bradshaw leas",
one of the most prolific producers OF
o ut-of-ordinary precious metal enriched
ore in the district. The Bradshaw has
more than made good from the hour
when pick was first driven into its sur
face. The revenue secured from sale
of gold-silver bearing ores is in sum
sufficient to more than pay all the ex-
penses incidental to mining. The
Kcarns No. | is a regular producer OF
orc having a value of 500 per ton and
better. The former Kearns No. ., now
being operated by the Queen eompany,
is producing ore having an average
value of at least $3.50 the ton. The
st. Ives lease is a producer of botn
shipping and milling grade ores. The
Balloon Hill lease is just entering what
appears to be a comprehensive body of
milling quartz. 1t is streaked with
seams of high grade. The former
Ogiivie-R REYNOLDS block is being worked
through medium of the Kearns No. :
shaft, and appears to carry the con
.tinuation of the rich deposit exposed
in the first mentioned. The Nat {.
Goodwin block is in an excellent grade
of milling ore, and carries the con
tinuation north of the rich Bradshaw
ledge. 1t is to be tapped by a crosscut
at "a depth of 800 feet. At the Mother
Lode lease the Bradshaw ledge was EN-
countered a few days ago at surface.
1t has been stripped a length of %
feet and a width of four feet, yielding
shipping grade quartz all the way.
The Consolidated.
On Consolidated ground hosting
plants are in position at the Big -Four,
the Lillian, the Murray and the Aspin-
wall leases. On the Rawhide claim,
adjoining the Gold Arrow and Morning
Star leases are thus equipped. lnclud-
ed in the development plans of the
Gold Arrow ~lessees is intent to sink q
main working shaft to a depth of 1000
feet. Save at the Murray lease, little
work is being done on Consolidated
ground, although it is announced that
development is to be renewed very
shortly at the other leases mentionef.
A small plant is being operated In con
junction with the Murray lease. The
greater portion of the ore being re-
duced thereat is, however, coming from
the Mint lease on the acreage of the
Rawhide Coalition Mines company. The
tonnage from the latter goes direct
from the dump into the receiving bins
at the mill and has an average value
of $15 per ton. 1t is by far the lowest
grade quartz mined within the limits
of the leasehold.
Roseberry Rawhide.
Adjoining that portion of the Coali-
ton acreage located on the south slope
OF Hooligan hill is the estate of the
Roseberry Rawhide company. 1t is be-
ing developed entirely by lessee ami
under the most favorable mineral con
ditions. Shipping and milling grade
ores are exposed in the Owl No. l, the
Renfro, the Treanor and the Stowel
leases. The three first mentioned are
equipped with power hoists. The last
mentioned soon will be. The Aspen
lease on the anne estate is being de-
veioped by means of hosting machin-
cry, and has a favorable showing in
milling grade quartz. Striking through
the estate of the R~oseberry Rawhide.
