Mohave County miner., 1909-11-27
Mines of the County

mining engineer of Seattle, arrived in Kingman yesterday and will leave to- day for the Expansion mine, to make an examination of the property. Mr.. Pagliuchi is a member of the Ameri- can Institute of Mining Engineers and stands high in his profession.
 There are now more prospectors in the mountains of Mohave county than at any time in it's history. Prospect ors are awakening to the fact that the hills of this rich old county have barely been scratched and that there are hundreds of square miles of min eral ground that has never been pros pected.
 William E. Frost was in the first of the week from his Wallapai Springs home and brought with him specimens of gold rock that was network of the yellow stuff. He claims that the rock was from new find in the mountains close to the Last Chance property and that the vein was quite large. It was estimated that the ore would run from 10,000$ to 30,0O0$ to the ton.
 J. F. Luthy, of Albuquerque, ac- companied by c. A. Ahlstadt, of For rest City Ark, passed through King man Wednesday on their way to MT. Luthy's mines at Salt Springs. E. D.. Swope joined the party in Kingman. MT. Ahlstadt is mining man on the zinc region of Arkansas, but it is pos sible that he will turn his attention to gold and will find the lower Gold Basin section most enticing field.
 Ed. Williams, who came up from the Big Sandy several days ago to spend Thanksgiving with his family, depart ed to the mines yesterday. He reports that work on the tungsten properties, in Acquarius mountains, has developed one of the best bodies of that ore ever seen in the mines. John Musser and Mir. Williams have been at work on the mines the past two months and will soon have large shipment of ore ready for the market.
 w. H. Knowles, we'll known min ing man, who has been looking over the different mining districts of this county, will leave in a few days for California, where he will spend sever- al months examining properties on the Mother Lode. He informs the Miner that his observation in this county convinces him that we have one of the greatest mineralized fields in the country and that it will be but a short time until every district will be making record output of gold, copper, lead and zinc.
 Jesse A. Tarr drove A. T. Johnson, a representative of John Hays Ham, mond, to the Burro mine last Sunday, returning with him Wednesday last. Mir. Johnson made an examination of the Burro property for the syndicate represented by Mr. Hammond. The Burro is one of the largest veins of ore bearing material in the county and is admirably situated for economic work. The Burro creek crosses the vein at right angles and the massive ore body is cut deep by the ravine through which the river runs.
 w. K. Frazier met number of associates in Kingman few days ago and the party is now at Cerbat mak- ing an examination of the Golden Gem and other mines. If the Gem suits it is probable that all the surrounding mines will be merged into abig group and worked through one combination shaft. Mir. Frazier is looking after big things and will not be satisfied with small acreage. The mines surrounding the Gem are owned by individuals and corporations, but it is quite within the probabilities that all will readily merge with the big syndicate.
 M. H. Lyon, well known mining man, who has been with the Goldbug mining company the past year or more, was in Kingman from that property the first of the week. He reports that station is being cut on the 800 level of the property and that soon cross cut will be run to the vein. The vein has not been entered since the shaft left the 365 foot level, at which point
