Mines of the County

Sandy last Sunday, having made an
examination of the properties for east
ern interests.
II. G. Schader, one of the well known
mining and civil engineers of King
man, has been in Needles the past two
weeks laying off an addition to the
town. The new addition is on the
mesas, high above the old town and in
a most desirable quarter.
John Schuyler, of Berkely, Califor-
MIA, was Kingman visitor this week,
coming here for a conference with
Maj. w. A. Mensch on the subject of
future developments of the Enterprise
mines. Mr.. Schuyler is we'll known in
mining and other financial circles
throughout northern California.
N. NJ. and Laurence Richardson
came in from the London mine last
Thursday to attend to business matters
in Kingman. They report having
opened some nice ore on the property
during the past month and believe
they have one of the big mines of that
section.
G. d. Atlee, superintendent of the
Xxi mines. was in Kingman this week.
He reports that good ore is showing in
the property and believes that his peo-
pie have one of the best properties in
that section. The Xxi is unquestion-
ably fine prospect and the develop
ment now under way will soon bring it
into the producing class.
The transformers for the Hercules
station in Silver Creek have been re-
ceived and will 90 out at once. The
Hercules will take large amount of |
power from the Kingman plant, loop |
being carried from the Tom Reed |
through that section to Union Pass, a |
large transformer being put in at that
point to step the current down to nor
NAL.
]. F. Wallace and Tom J. Grant re-
turned yesterday from the Big Sandy
section, where they have been pro.
pecting. They brought back with
them some nice gold ore, found in a
new discovery, that shows much of the
metal. They are of the opinion that
they have something exceptionally
good and contemplate returning to the
mines soon.
The recent strike of good ore in the
Alpha mine continues and indications
point to the opening of big shipping
property. The ore now in the breast
of the drift is heavy in iron and
copper and the character of mine pro-
duct sought after by the smelters.
The lower drift is now in about $50
feet and will soon be under the old ore
bearing zone, where the richer grades
are expected to be found.
A. h. Smith and wife, of the Wall
apai King Mining company, Todd
Basin, were Kingman visitors yester-
day. Mr.. Smith states that the sink
ing of the deep shaft on the old Next
can mine is still being pushed and that
as soon as the permanent formation
below water level is struck the work
of exploring the veins will be begun.
The mine is one of the properties that
in the good old days produced much
rich ore.
John Boyle, jr., accompanied by
friends and relatives came in from the
Golconda mine last Thursday to look
after business affairs. He reports the
mill pounding away and getting good
results. The long drift from the
Prosperity is now in good milling ore
and has drained the Golconda ground,
which allows of the working of the .
ground on the 300 level of the Col ,
conda. Everywhere in the group of .
mines under development the ore !
shows rich in zinc values, as well as
values in gold and silver. /,
o. F. Kuencer, now of Los Angeles,
is visiting in Kingman. While a resi-
dent of our sister state Mr.. Kuencer I
still clings to his first love-old Mo q
have. He believes it to be one of the Z
richest sections of the territory and Z
that within few years mining men !
will be hunting the hills in all direc- c
tions in search of investment. Refer ?
ring to the production of the Gold ?
Road and Tom Reed mines, he stated
that were these properties in Nevada q
it would create such furore that the
