SEVEN TROUGHS DISTRICT
SHOWING FINE PROPERTIES

SEVEN TROUGHS, July 5.-A cross
run in the Big Dipper tunnel recent
iy $50 feet from it's portal, discloses an
ls-inch vein nestled against the black
dyke carrying fine gold values. The
Big Dipper tunnel penetrates a wide
formation of quartz set in a matrix OF
tale which pans gold freely. This for
nation is regarded by the operators IN
the Seven Troughs district as a nam
moth vein of undetermined width and
richness. But the crosscut run last
week proves that the vein is in place
and that it extends the full length Of
the tunnel along the black dyke. 1t is
the intention of the Company to strip
the vein an additional $50 feet into the
Hill, before sinking on the ore body.
A black dyke frequently cuts the for
nation in the Seven Troughs district
and accompanies every true vein there
rather the higher gold values hug the
| sides of these dykes. The dyke is q
basaltic rock and, as has been demon
| strated, the ore values accompanying
it reach to a great depth, while usually
increasing in width and richness As
they 60 down.
Mr.. Sweeney, who conducts the WORK
on Big Dipper, is elated to lind the
basaltie dyke continuous with the ore
values at it's side in Big Dipper, as II
is one of the unfailing signs of q mine
in the Seven Troughs.

The Florence Lease ON "Seyeo
Troughs Mining" ground is endeavor.
ing to close n deal with the parent com.
pany which will permit the leasers to
use the 750-foot company shaft to mine
their leased ground adjoining. The
leasing company has a wide vein
carrying high values opened up to the
4O0-foot level. Use of the parent com.
pany's 750-foot shaft would give the
leasing company additional depth of
$50 feet under their ore body with lit
| tie drifting. With the ore body thus
opened up to the 750-foot level in the
lease, "Seven Troughs Mining would
doubtless be the largest mine in the
] district.

KLOND|KE GIVES
UP 100000
THIS SEASON

SEATTLE, Wash, June IA dis
patch from Dawson, Y. t., gives five
million dollars as the best estimate Of
this seasons output from the large
placer operations in the heart of the
old Klondike. This is important be-
cause a very large part of it will come
from ground that has already been
mined once and abandoned. This yield
is therefore from what is practically a
waste product and it very well illus
trates what is still to be done by capt.
tai in various placer gold fields of
Alaska that have been practically Civ
up by the small miners. The prin-
cipal operator in the ole Klondike is
ihc Yukon Cold company, q Morgan
Guggenheim enterprise, which bought
up a large number of abandoned claims

spent several millions in experiments
and equipment and last year began
working over the old tailings and
bench ground that could not be worked

This company's experiments
and final success have made it possible

tial profit. AS a result Dawson. which

largely rehabilitated and this fam
bus scene of sensational production has

ELY, July 6.-While working in an
upraise from the main working shaft
of the Minnesota Lead company on
Duck creek, a deposit of pure galena
four and one-half feet in width was
broken into yesterday aft .rnoon.
Those who have seen the new ore
cone claim that it gives promise Of
making some of the highest grade lead
ore that has ever been extracted from
the Duck Creek country. 1t is believ-
ed that the newly discovered deposit
of high grade lead ore will be sufficient
in product t o place those properties in
the dividend paying division for some
time to come.
Eight tons of ore of this character
was broken down yesterday by a.
round of holes which had been put IN
by the day shift. The new upraise
promises to open up a territory from
which the Minnesota company can ex-
tract a good tonnage of first class ore.
The development work on these mincs|
has shown steady improvement during
the last two months.

HIGH GRADE COPPER SHOWS
IN THE ELY CALUMET MINE

from the new find to the Salt Lake
smelters early next week. No difficulty
is experienced in getting out the ore.
Two miners employed by Mr.. Strelhke
succeeded in taking out III tons of ore
in two days this week from the Ely
Calumet mines.
Mr.. Strelhke has been searching for
the main ore body on the Ely Calumet
holdings, since he was appointed super
intendent of those properties last fall,
and has finally been rewarded for his
efforts. After following the vein for
quite a distance, he has encountered
what he believes will develop into a
permanent deposit of high grade ore.
Following the announcement Of a
strike on the Ely Calumet mines, which
are controlled by Richard and his as.
socfates, comes the report from an ap-
parently authoritative source that
Thomas F. Cole, president Of the
Giroux Consolidated, will personally in
speet the Ely Calumet properties on his
next visit to the Ely district with a
view to purchasing the interest OF
Richard and his associates.
The acquisition by the Cole-Ryan in
terests would direct new attention to
the Ely district lying directly north Of
town, which has both limestone and
porphyry formation strongly impreg
mated.

ELY, New, July THE phenomenal
eood fortune that has followed Tex
Richard in all his promotions, was
again exemplifed when a strike OF
tremendous Importance to the future OF
the district was reported last night from
the North Star claim of the Ely Calu-
met Copper company, in which Rick
ard is largely interested.
While sinking a winze in the main
tunnel on the North Star claim, +. A.
Strelhke, who has been leasing on the
Ely Calumet holdings for the last -four
months, uncovered four feet of high
grade copper ore. An average sample
taken from the new discovery assayed
% per cent copper, besides carrying
small values in several of the other
metals.
The extent of the strike cannot be
definitely determined until further de-
velopment work has been accomplished
in the winze. The rich ore body was
broken into at a depth of four feet,
and the ore is found in a formation CT
red and black oxides, impregnated with
carbonates. Neither the hanging or
foot walls are in sight.
The ore which has been extracted
from the winze is particularly desirable
for shipping purposes, and Mr.. Strelhke
is arranging to send a carload of ore
