Bisbee daily review., 1910-10-05

Gucing gold mine will be added to inc list of wealth makers that are as | whole sacond to none on te continent Tie Eas, Side Gold eain- pany's mine. but six miles from Bis Lee on the edge of the Sulphur Springs valley is proving to be gold property of great merit and has been attracting the attention of the mining Ten of the district.
 This property, consisting Of SIX pat enied claims. was first opened ui. about seven CT eight years ago by c. C. Mccoy, who operated at in small way and shipped a little high graie l. depth of more than 100 sac, ;n.a raI drifts and opened up good sho.'- ing of ore.
 The company whicii owns the prop erty was financed in Lambertviile New Jersey. and was org;...ized with l oee.0o0 shares of ssp.k a' sne ,iDi- lar per shai. Ia" tle ps.s.s-sis; :.', e ot te stock in tag oari, ..ays Of ti,e ol,cl afiOn :ss '..e prorct,y cn :;d- eerable money was spent by Mccoy in development work in the two shafts he sunk and in the drift work.
 After the shipment of ore was made tie company. the president of wh, ,ch is Edward Rittenhouse of Lambert vile, who is now in charge of the wcrk at the mine, ordered all work stepped and for several years noth- ilg was done at the East Side
 Ir March of this year the stock holders dec 'ded to resume operations as they had great faith in the prop erty and President Rittenhcuse was sent to Bisbee to personally super ietend the work. When Mir Kitten house arrived he put small force Of men 10 work. and development has been steadily carried on ever since with splendid results as large show ing of gold bearing quartz ore has teen opened up.
 There are two shafts on the prop | -erty, one that is known as the up | Ter shaft and is located high on the 1 -hin, and the other called the lower ] shaft which is not far above the base | of the hill. The upper shaft was sunk t, depth of 120 feet by Mccoy and he started the lower shaft getting | down about seventy feet.
 A tunnel connection was made with | the upper shaft and two drifts were l run north and south and in both | drifts good ore was struck and in one | place quantity of very high grade | ore was taken out and shipped
 Considerable ore was left in place ! in the south drift on the foot wall | and the showing is such that exten- I sive development of this body is con templated as there is no doubt in l she mind of the management and those | who have seen the property that a | fNs SS anu AiSh oit Uous Sdh p~ uc- peloped there.
 This ore lays in a perfect forma- lion with a quartzite hanging wall | and porhpyry foot wall and is sal | ic:ous quartz heavily impregnated l with oxide of iron and carrying con | siderable quantities of free milling | gold.
 In the south drift a wing was sunk | on the ledge and when the work sas | stopped this wing was still in rich ore. as was drift that had been run n; a lower level and which opened up | a rich ere bearing country rhe | slowing in this shaft with its drifts | and wing is excellent and mining men who have seen the property are cen vinced on this showing that i'd mine of importance has been opened up
 The lower shaft has been sunk b the 100 foot level and station cut ssnd substantially timbcrcd A drift to connect the lower and upper shafts is HOW being run The distance bd- tween the two shafts is 52s feet ana the drift will cut undsr he upper shaft at a depth of 2aC feer @hic.. vii, necessitatc an cr.ass tsing made to get 70 the b,t.;..' of the 'p per shaft.
 While sinking tn, lowc- s:.aft tol fhe 100 level aa .sigh.ern s:Tea ak of AoId ore was opeaad rp and this ore (. .ntinued 10 the bctton ,f 'hc shaft where it dipped :. tbe north cast aEl jc1ned a larger body of ore opeEed Ister.
 While cutting the s;aticn an unex- pected ore body was entered and the wEole ngor of the station was cut. in ore. This ledge is well defined as any ever struck in the Warren dis trJct There is twenty feet of the ledge matter which Eeg between A .quartzite hanging wall and poh rIayry foot wall with the dip to the south east
