ores that occur on the property. The
Revenue owns large tract of wei
mineralized ground, their territory be-
ing well assured by a system of north
west-southwest assures that make orc
bodies which show on the surface and
which development has proven 10 ex-
list at depth.
These assures cut through the
quartzitc and the orc makes in that
formation and on the contact with the
lime. There are three principal fis-
sures that cut through the ground In
speaking of the property Or. Il. y
Hasbrouck said: THESE assures are
some distance apart. the first Is
known as the Gift. Then come sew
eral smaller Veins and further on the
Buckbee vein. Beyond this Is the
Southsidc. Since the last report on
the property. Il tunnel has been driven
which connects with the Gift vein at
$50 feet. Below this, and at the top
Of the mill We are driving another
tunnel which will cut 1t ut 500 feet,
This same tunnel will be continued to
connect with the Buckbce vein at 200
feet and the Southside at 1,40o. Where
the connections have. been made with
the veins at depth, the ore has
proven continuous from the sur
face down The dimensions of
the different ore bodies will be
found In the letter below which is
being mailed to all of the stockhold-
ers in the company. / consider that
this property shows better for the
amount of development done than
anything In the state and am confident
that when things are we'll under way
that we will have large producer,."s
The following Is the report given by
Charles u. Wyatt:
accompanied by Mr.. l.. G.. Burton
made a careful inspection of the en-
tire property as we'll as u study of the
ways Of getting ores from the mine to
the railroad point which Is Newhouse.
Utah. and ingoing freight from New
house to the mine. The road from
Newhouse to Pine Grove is an excel
lent one for tho use of traction en-
gines with which machines I am well
acquainted having sold them and
handled them for many years past.
The company has expended about
ten thousand dollars (s10,000) in
making the road over the summit.
between Newhouse and the mine and
have constructed n road with the
View or putting on an engine. The
work has been very carefully done
under the supervision of Mr.. L. G.
Burton so that / would estimate that
with an additional expenditure of five
hundred dollars (s500) traction en-
CINE can haul about As tons from the
mine to Ncwhouse at n cost per ton OF

that freight from Newhouse to the
mine would be included in the cost per-
ton from the mine to the railroad.
ri AS to geological conditions as find
them. i can speak as positively as any
one else and can see that which Is plain
and open for every one regardless of
the fact that they may know little or
nothing OF a mining, property. Condi-
tions could not be moro ideal for Il
mining camp than are to be found on
the immense property owned by tho
company. The acreage is in the neigh
borhood of 1900 acres of mining land
and some 600 ares additional OF agrl-
cultural land. The latter Is supplied by
mn ABUNDANT water right owned by the
company which water right enables tho
company to furnish its mill and will
later on be used to generate electrical
power sufficient for all mill purposes
and for lighting purposes
81 find that the work going on at the
mine had been from the start UP to the
time that l was ut the property large
~ in taking out ore that Is In the I'M
foreground work. AT the Tnsso claim,
the Buckbce, and the Southside there Is
Il large tonnage OF ores both of n ship
ping grade and milling ores. At the
Buckbee there Is n large amount of ore
that can be taken down through the
lower levels ana tunnels that are start
cd at the mill and running towards this
particular property. On the dumps at
the Buckbee and in the dumps, for there
Is ore mixed all through the waste ma
terial, l would estimate GOO to 500 tons.
- went into the Buckbee tunnel and
found that ore had been taken out from
the tunnel mouth into the workings as
far as the shaft which connects the
tunnel with the surface. The ore scam
varies ,from two to four feet in width
and extends to the surface distance
of 1870 feet. which can he seen and yeri-
fed in the shaft mentioned. Near this
shaft and from the bottom of the tun-
mel there has been a 3winzc sunk on the
ore demonstrating that 1t continues on
down, Beyond the connection of the
tunnel and shaft the tunnel is extended
and also follows ore into the mountain
for some considerable distance.
On the Gilt claim there are three
tunnels. n shaft and an up-rasc all of
which are In ore and in the driving of
which hundreds of tons of ore have been
taken out and arc ready to be marketed
either as smelling ore or TO go through
the mill and be concentrated. These
workings will give the company u depth
of from $50 feet TO 400 feet in depth
on all the veins In this particular claim
and at the Buckbce as VOL ns tho other
claims that lay contiguous to these.
St'"At the SOuthslde cEtim OF the .lop-
erty, the tonnage of ore out on the
dumps Is simply immense and could
be cstlmnted not In the hundreds but IN
ono or two thousands of tons. The work
inSs enable the company to stope In
connection with the Southsldc and the
Gift and I3uckbee tens of thousands OF
tons OF ore.
Z All OF the work Is done in good
manner. and where tlmbering has been
required it is of the very best. At the
mouth of tn deepest tunncl on the Gift
vein, Is mil building OF capacity.
when fully equipped With machinery, Of
60 to 100 tons. There Is already IN
stalled in the mill Il Corliss- Nordbcrg
engine and air compressor of about 100
horsepower. y good boiler connecting

everything necessary for carrying on
the work"
