Mohave County miner. [volume] (Mineral Park, A.T. [Ariz.]) 1882-1918, 1910-05-21

The Home PaStime mine Is showing
up splendid ore in the upper level and
it is probable that another lift will be
taken on the property as soon as the
present shipment is made to the smelt-
er.
John Jamison, who has been at work
on mining claims near Todd Basin,
with Peter Gallery and William Cole,
was Kingman visitor this week. He
reports that the claims are looking
well and that the chances for opening
up producer is good.
Everywhere that the George Wash
ington vein is opened there is found
good ore and in the main drift the ore
continues to open up big. This is the
Mineral Park vein from which the
big strike of copper-gold ore was re-
ported last week. Mr.. Peck, who is
operating the mine for himself and
associates, believes he has one of the
best properties in that section and the
developments so far confirm him in
that belief.
Many Mohave county people have
expressed desire to own a block of
c. o. D. stock and that local interest
in the property might be created the
board of directors at their meeting
yesterday agreed to place on the local
market 10000 shares of stock at low
figure, for a period of twenty days.
A large part of the stock has already
been spoken for and those who want a
small block of this stock should get
their orders in to the secretary II. W.
Kemper, at once. A more desirable
stock than the c. o. D. has not been
placed on the local market in years.
H. L. McCarn, general manager of
the Rainbow Mountain Mining Com
pany, was in Kingman several days
this week trying to get rid of an at
tack of grip. He reports that the
work of blocking out ore in the Rain
bow mine is going on daily and that
the property is looking better and bet
ter with every foot of development.
The Rainbow group is one of the best
in the Chloride section and it will be
but short time until it can commence
shipping a large daily tonnage of ore
The mine has been handled to better
advantage than most of the mines of
the county, every effort being made TO
put great tonnage of ore in sight.
and in this regard the management
has been successful.
On the Banner mine, Stockton Hill.
the Needles Mining and Smelling com
pany has sunk a Wine below the tun-
mel level to a depth of 80 feet. This
winze has been connected with the
surface through the old air shaft.
compartment and timbered up. At
the bottom of the winZe a four foot
streak of solid lead ore has been open
ed up. This ore is high in silver and
gold values. The showing is one of
the best ever seen in the property and |
as sinking proceeds the showing of
ruby in the ore is more pronounced. |
The shaft near the surface produced |
some of the richest specimens of gold |
ore ever taken from a mine in that |
section. The main shaft on the south |
end of the claim has not yet reached |
the vein, but it is expected that the |
vein will be cut at a depth of less than |
400 feet. From this shaft large area .
of ground can be worked, as many
veins run through that part of the
cOmpany's estate.
This week a New York mining
engineer made an examination of the
Tyro group of mines and confirmed the
report of Mr.. Pagliuchi, taking the
mines over for eastern interests. 1t is
proposed to sink a shaft to consider
able depth on the mines and open them
to at least three hundred feet before
an attempt will be made TO provide
milling facilities. The mine is opened
to depth OF about $50 feet by shaft
and tunnel and it will take but short
time to drive the shaft to the 300.
The mines have fine showing of mil
ling ore, the grade being as high as
that of the Tom Reed and the ore
body is large. Every engineer that
made an examination of the property
obtained good values across the big
vein and were favorably impressed
with its possibilities. 1t is now more
than probable that a great milling
plant will be operating on the mines
inside of a wear adding hundreds of
