WATER OPENS RICH ORE
IN NEVADA HILLS MINE

News reaches Goldfeld that one of
the most important discoveries ever
made on the Nevada Hills property at
Fairview has just come to light through
the caving of ground caused by heavy
flow of water in the winze below the
$50 foot level. Grab samples of the
ore secured by the miners when they
were forced out of the workings show
ed 1000 ounces silver and $500 in gold
per ton.
According to Manager w. II. Webber,
who has been inspecting the property,
the water was encountered in winze
60 feet below the 350-foot level, and
it is believed that it will prove up
the richest zone of ore yet found in
the mine. He said that the men had
given up the work on the winze and
had been devoting their attentions to
another part of the mine. The work
had been left for several days. When
the men returned they found that a
slide had occurred and that water was
coming into the winze. The slide re-
vealed the presence of some very rich
ore. The flow of water that was
found proved to be too heavy for the
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1909-09-18

men to stay long in the winze so they
could ascertain the extent of the ore
disclosed. In coming out of the winze,
which was later bulkheaded, they
grabbed some samples which showed
values of 1000 ounces in silver and 5000
in gold to the ton.
Mr.. Webber says that they have no
idea of the extent of the ore, but from
the amount of mineral that is being
washed up by the water he feels conf
dent that they have good deposit that
will last them for some time. They are
now down 45O feet with the main
working shaft and have started drift
to get under the winze. The water is
being run off through some fissures and
will probably not bother the forces ear
Tying on operation.
Mr.. Webber says they can utilize the
water nicely in the projected milling
plant. He feels the encountering OF
the water has turned out to be very
fortunate thing for the company, as
it will result in the opening up praeu-
eally of a new mine, with better values
than were obtained even during the
dividend paying period.

PLAN TO REORGANIZE THE
DlAMONDFIELD BLACK BUTTE

rick it is proposed to use the funds so
| rece ived in the payment of the debts
of the company and provide a surplus
for development work. All shares of
the old company not exchanged within
six months will be lost, and their equiv
alent in the reorganization will lie
placed in the treasury. There are l,SO0,-
900 shares issued out of a total of
3. 900 900 of the Black Butte stock, Mr..
Patrick holding about $1,000 and Ish
100000. Under the reorganization as
sessment of two cents share, Mr.. Pat
rick will have to contribute $2,40O and
Ish $4,000, which will practically wipe
out the Indebtedness to Ish.
No extensive mining operations are
being conducted on the property at
present, few leasers being engaged in
trying to find shipping ore in greater
quantities than they have yet been able
to. There are large reserves of good
milling ore opened in the workings, but
these can not be turned to profit with
out mill.
1t is proposed to place the judgment
and reorganization matters in the hands
of some trust company, for the purpose
of effecting the reorganization after
the sale of the property.

of the big mill will also be shown.
Large photographs of the mills and
mine buildings, and panoramic views
of the Consolidated estate are being
prepared, and nothing will be left un-
done that could give information on the
resources of the property. During the
meeting of the congress, every possible
facility and courtesy will be accorded
visitors to inspect the underground
workings and see the marvellous ore re-
serves that have been developed. 1t
should forever satisfy the mining world
that Goldfield is only getting started
on it's real wealth-producing era.

The real "picture' rock is now ar
irving, but there is great deal that
will not be brought in until just before
the opening of the big SHOW. When the
curtain is finally raised there will be

rock that it will be one big gasp, for
all who gaze upon it.
Photographs were taken yesterday by
Welch & Tune showing the big white
cabinet and portion of the exhibit
as it has been assembled on the long
tables. While it was impossible to get
more than a limited section of the ex-
, hibit into one picture, it will give a
good insight into what visitors may
expect and will see.
The picturesqueness of the view was
heightened by three mountain sheep

LEASERS OPEN NEW ORE
SHOOT ON DAISY PROPERTY

Ore that will run from $lS to $25
per ton has been opened in the Spenker
u Piper lease on the 200 level of the
Daisy, the work being done through
No. 2 shaft. The ore was opened on
the footwall of the vein near where a
crosscut was driven a couple of years
ago. Bins have been constructed and
considerable ore is being saved for
shipment.
Durgan and associates are leasing in
the same block on the 300 level, and
expect to soon open the same shoot that
has been developed by Spenker &
Piper.
With the Morrison lease still main
tanning a good output, and chances that
the old Toplitz lease will soon join the
active list, and the added encourage
ment to be found in developments on
the Millard & Jones lease, and the main
Daisy workings, there is a great deal
of reason to anticipate a largely in
creased production from the Daisy prop
erty. Several other leases have been
applied for, but no definite arrange
ments compelled.

No state in thu Union ever gathered
| together such prolific, comprehensive
and extensive display of mineral wealth
as is now assembled at the Nevada
Mineral Palace for the enlightmeGt ot
visitors to the Mining Congress when
eonvenes in Goldfeld September %.
Practically every known mineral is
shown in startling array, all produced
from within the confines of the grand
old "Sagebrush state, which soon
after the civil war saved the cred,t Of
the nation with the wealth that was
poured forth from her most historic
possession, the Comstock mine.
1t would be an almost impossible
task to adequately portray the nagni-
tude and commercial Importance Of the
resources this display represents, and
the exhibit will be thrice marvel tc
every visitor. 1t will be revelation
of the wonderful naturalization OF the
state and will be convincing proof that
Nevada is greater mineral eiapire
than anyone has yet pictured it, and
that the extent and -scvness OF its re-
sources are practically unknown.
All of the old camps that have par
ticipated in the glorious history of tie
state are represented by splendid exhi
bits, and the Comstoek sends ore from
workings three-ffths If mile deep,
there being specimens from various
portions of the property, including che
2900, the 1000 and the 3lO0-foot level,
of the Hale & Norcross, where men defy
an atmosphere almost ke the internal
regions in the battle to recover nature )
hoard.
New districts that have as yet hardly
gained place in the public eye h.sv
sent exhibits that show astonishing pos
sibilities, and they can not fail to Ut
tract attention and .nvestment by the
wonderful display they are making. Ez-
clamation points will be at a premium
before the Mining Congress adjourns.
Without doubt the greatest shown
is that of the Goldfield Consolidated
which, under the direction of Superin,
tendent Henderson has been most liber-
al in providing comprehensive exhibit
from every portion of the Consolidated
estate, including mill ores and nigh
grades of every description. The new
discoveries on the 730 and $50 levels
of the Clermont shaft will hold more
than ordinary interest to visitors, on

they represent, the 730 level being ap-

Affairs of the Diamondfeld Black
Butte company seem to be getting into
deeper tangle, and the creditors of the
company, principal among which are
the First National Bank of Goldfield
and +. M. Ish are trying to devise
some means for a reorganization after
securing the sale of the property under
an execution to cover the debts. The
bank holds notes against the company
for approximately $1,000, +. M. lsh
holds note for $6,637, and other in
debtedness will bring the total up to
approximately $4,000. The proposal
which l.. L. Patrick of the First Ma
tonal bank and Mr.. Ish have tentative
ly made to Diamondfield Black Butte
stockholders is that after the sale OF
the property under execution they VIII
organize another company with similar
capitalization to the present corpora
