The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1909-05-01

The total shipping ore in sight at
present is 1900 tons, which will average
$40 per ton or shipping ore valued at
$4,000. In addition to the shipping
ores President Russell states that there
are at present $4,000 tons of milling
ore in sight averaging $3.50 per ton
or a total milling value of 100000.
These figures are authoritive and
show that the Great Western in the
snort space of two years has not only
teen developed by the production from
the mine and at the same time made a
handsome profit for its stockholders, but
that it has today a fortune of over
81 10000 00 exposed in its drifts and
Slopes.
Every day the winze in the 300-foot
level is adding to this vast reserve, and
steps are now under way to build a
modern mill to take care of the milling
ores, and also to connect the Great West
ern and the town of Hornsilver with
the main line at Cuprite by a branch
road.

GREAT WESTERN MINE IS
FINE LITTLE PRODUCER

The last report of President and Man
ager James H. Russell of the Great
Western at Hornsilver on the resources
of that mine discloses the fact that the
Great Western is one of the greatest
~.slittle Mines in Esmcralda county.
Although the property is but little
more than two years old, it has an en-
viable shipping record dating from
within three months after the first pick
sank into the Hornsilver hills. In
speaking of the past production Mr..
Russell points to the fact that although
some distance from the railroad, neces-
stating the shipment of nothing but
high grade, the Great Western has ship
ped a total of 1,254 tons up to date,
which brought in the snug sum Of
$119,557, giving the ore shipped a
general average of $40 per ton.
A careful measuring and sampling of
the reserve ores now in the mine of the
Great Western shows that with every
foot of lateral development work and
every foot of sinking that property is
becoming better in every way.

Exchange for Friday, April 80. 1909

The week has not been an auspicious

vailing. At the stock exchange session
last night still lower prices were re-
corded on the leaders than have ex-
listed for SOM time. Daisy was sold
down to "a, while Combination Fraction
sold at 81. Consolidated was bid for
at $s.15 and Florence at $3.2Ih, but no

believed that the slump is not to be
long-winded, for the physical condition
of the mines is Of a most satisfactory
