Spect Kingman

KINGMAN, Ariz., Oct. lib. D.
Lunceford came in from the Tom Reed
mill Tuesday with a $4,000 bar of bull
lion, the product of about three weeks
run Of ten stamps. Mr.. Lunceford re.
ports that the mill is doing splendid
work and that the mine was improve
ing with every foot of new work.
When the additional thirty stamps are
put in commission the output of this
company will be about equal to that
of the Gold Road.
p. H. Mclaughlin, superintendent or
the c. o. d. mine is in Kingman He
says in the stope from the second level
of the mine he has secured some ore
that gave a value of $7205 in gold
and silver, the gold running phenome-
nally high. The ore from this stope
will average higher than any ore ever
taken from that rich property. At the
$50 foot level a crosscut has opened
a new vein, the ore being quite rich.
The new vein was within a few feet of
the shaft and has been opened to as
certain just what it looks like. At all
points in the vein the ore is showing
fine and when the 300 drift from the
old works is reached 1t is expected that
the mine will make a phenomenal out
put.
Among the big mine operators Of
the county to arrive in Kingman this
Young of San Francisco, P. e. Burke
of Denver, and George Holstein of Los
Angeles. They went to take look at
the Golconda mine, and were greatly
surprised with the wonderful develop
ments Of the property and the great
showing of ore.
Joe Prisk is arranging for the trans
fer of the Home Pastime mine at Min
eral park to the newly organized Home
Pastime Mining company. This COM
pany has been organized with capi-
talization of $250,O00 and expects to
equip the mine and at once begin the
sinking of a new working shaft. The
property of one of the rich mines of
the Mineral park basin, and has been
shipping ore to the 'smelter the past
two years.
REACHES 1870 DEPTH
The shaft on the property has
reached a depth of about 100 feet, but
the main work has been done about
that level In the floor of the drift
the ore appears richer than at any
other point in the mine and it is eX-
pected that depth will reveal some of
the richest ore ever taken from a Min
eral park mine. The men at the head
of the new organization-A. F. Muter,
L. NJ. Teale and H. NJ. Postle-are well
known mining men.
The four stamp Missen mill of the
Dixie Queen Mining company is ready
for operations. The company has
been working a force of men on the
plant the past six months and have
completed one of the most up-to-date
milling plants in the country. At the
mine there is large tonnage of ore
blocked out and the values are high.
M. A. Moore, who has been in charge
of the property the past two years, is
a practical mining man and has sue
ceeded in opening the property up in
fine shape. An abundant supply of
water has also been developed and
when the mill is started it is safe to
say that it will have prosperous run.
INSPECTs ALPHA MINE
r. N. Dickman, with offices in Chi
cago, arrived in Kingman a few days
ago and made an examination of the
Alpha mine. Mr.. Clark of Parker was
instrumental in bringing the property
to the attention of the people. The
property has produced some Of the
richest ore ever taken from a mine
in the United States. Shipments have
been made to Pennsylvania, the ores
netting about $500 a ton. Mr.. Will
liams has been working on the mines
the past year and is now said to have
q wonderful showing. He has removed
his family to the mines, and If a sale
is not consummated, will begin the
extraction of ore for shipment.
The Needles Mining & Smelling
company is getting things in shape to
begin the shipment of ores from the
Banner mines at Stockton HILL and
the Tennessee mine at Chloride. The
Banner will ship about one car day
and the Tennessee two cars daily The
two properties will eventually furnish
a large tonnage for the concentration
and Smelter
