UTAH CON. TUNNEL
CUTS QUARTZ CAVE
New Working of TintiC Com
pany Encounters Mine
indications.

The new tunnel started recently by
the Utah Consolidated company of Tin
tic has encountered d cave in which
is fine body OF quartz. S. ]. Jones
and Heber s. Cutler, directors of the
company, who yesterday examined the
find, reported that il gave excellent
indications OF being close to an ore
body.
The cave is about Is feet deep and
its length and width have not yet been
determined. The ground is being
caught up" with timbers to permit
OF its being explored. But the quartz
in the floor OF the cave is typical OF
that which in Tintic district forms the
Gaping OF ore bodies.
The new tunnel was started about 200
feet east of the old tunnel and Ii Is
designed 10 get underneath the old
workings, in which has been done con-
siderable prospecting for the southern
extensions OF the Humbug ore bodies
without definite results. Indications
We're improving at depth. however and
was for that reason that the deeper
tunnel was projected.
The tunnel has been driven 100 feet
and in that distance has gained depth
OF ITO feet The management is more
confident than for long time that il
Is on the right track 10 open a mine.

MANY OIL WELLS
IN VERNAL FIELDS
Fully Thirty Prospect Holes In
dioate Good Production
Capacity.

More work is being done in the old
districts Of the Vernal, or Uintah, re-
gion, than has been generally sup
posed at this distance from the scene
OF action. In the Rangeley district,
sixty miles southeast OF Vernal, ac-
cording TO Enos Bennion, merchant OF
Vernal who is in the city, thirty-fiVe
wells have been sunk. with not more
than four or five dry wells. One well
IS being driven in the district twenty
miles east OF VernaL Water eneoun-
tered at the depth OF go feet is giving
trouble, but the indications of oil are
most promising
The Emerald OIL company, which IS
composed largely OF Uintah county
Bennion says. all of which are in oil.
Their depths range from 500 feet to
1000 feet, which indicates that they
have not reached what is regarded as
the permanent oil sand. No gusher
has been brought in and little gas has
been Encountered. From bailing tests
1t is figured that the wells will yield
by pumping from ten barrels to
twenty barrels a day. The oil is ex-
cellent quality, paraffine base.
The wells sunk by the Emerald
company are prospecting wells each
having been sunk TO test a 160-acre
tract of the company's 5000 acres of
land. The cost of driving is from
S1.50 TO SO foot. One well. on
ground adjoining the Emerald hold
ings, is being pumped at the rate OF
about fifteen barrels day to provide
fuel oil for three drilling outfits in
the vicinity. The oil is much cheaper
in that country than either wood or
coal

MINERAL WAX IS
MADE INTO RUBBER
Utah Product Promises to Fig
ure in Cutting Auto
Tire Cost.

Experiments in making from Utah
mineral wax product TO take the
place OF the rubber or commerce. con-
Quoted BY Dr.. Clarence Barrett. gen
eral manager OF the Paraffine oil COM
pany Of Utah. have apparently been at
tended by IS complete success as could
he desired. DR.. Barrett has made a
rubber. whioh. applied to cloth. is
firm, pliable. elastic. waterproof. i'm
pervlous 10 the action Of ordinary
heat--and if it Is not in every way as
serviceable as the rubber produced
from trees it is a case Of appearances
deceiying.
The Paraffine OH company has a
four-foot vein of material which is 20
per cent ana Z5 per cent mineral wax,
Or rubber. To extract the rubber from
the rock the latter is boiled in hOt
water, the rubber arising to the sur
face, when IL is SKINNED off. Prepar-
ing the rubber thus obtained for use
10 a relatively simple operation. The
material is dissolved in bl-sulphlde Of
carbon in which. in solution. is guam
tity OF vegetable rubber equal TO one
half OF one per cent OF the crude ma
terial. BY the use or oxide OF zine the
rubber thus obtained can be hardened
10 any degree desired.
DR.. Barrett is confident that he has
material for making automobile tires
which viii easily supplant all-vegeta-
bic rubber, at less than One-half the
cost. That IL is an admirable material
for roofing, for the making OF water
proof cloth and for the many other
purposes for which rubber in some
form is used there can be question.
Produces OIL From Wax.
But the Paraffine OIL company has
snOt 10 rely upon the successful out
come OF a contest with the rubber trust
TO commercialiZe its product The min
sral wax extracted from the rock found
in great quantity in its Utah county
property is 80 per cent crude oil. and
the company has on the ground small
works for distiliing and refining the
oil. fhe refined oil is p gravity,
Baume. II is an amber oil peculiarly
adapted to the lubFicating of fine
machinery. The distillate is oeep
green in color. The cOmpany's still
has a capacity Of four barrels. and il
is possible 10 run off it's capacity twice
= day. The oil produced brings readily
IS cents a Callon on the local marker.
The company hopes TO soon be able
10 greatly increase the capacity OF its
works for producing oil. and in the
event that q market can be established
for its rubber it has the making Of q
great industry California capitalists
have recently acquired lands almost
surrounding the estate OF the Paraffine
Oil company. 1t is their intention to

ENCOURAGE WORK
IN URANIUM VEIN
Once Discarded Ore From
Good Springs Property May
Yield Fortune.

From the Colorado School OF Mines,
c. NJ over. veteran operator OF Good
Springs, New, district, has received
encouragement TO exploit the deposits
OF uranium ore found in his Big Spread
mine. Every sample of ore sent TO the
school of mines. the professor OF metal
lurgy reported, contained carnotite,
combination OF uranium and Vanadium,
in form and quantity which indicated
that IL should make commercial prod
uct. Mr.. over intends TO send to the
mill at Newmeyer, Colorado, the only
plant in the West equipped to treat
uranium ore, trial shipment TO deter
mine just what can be done with il.
The ore containing uranium, or earn
otlte IS found IN ten-fOot vein in the
Big Spread property, which Mr. over
mas been prospecting as a copper prop
erty. The mass OF the vein material
appears TO be largely the ore which
contains uranium. 1t carries some cop
per, and that is what the miners have
been saving, the uranium ore having
been thrown over the dump. In pros
pecting the vein loo feet on its strike
l6O sackfuls OF the high-grade ore
have been saved.
Looks Like Chloride.
Mr.. Overs attention was attracted
10 the ore going over the dump by in
dleations of what he believed was chlOr-
ide Of silver. Assays failed to disclose
silver values, however, and then he
had the ore tested for the rare min
eral. with results which may mean the
opening of a rich mine of a kind other
than that he was searching for.
His experience leads Mr.. over to be-
lieVe that states like Utah and Nevada
where many of the rare minerals are
known to occur, should offer some
special inducements for their discovery
and development. Few expert miners,
even are able 10 recognize the presence
or the rare minerals upon sight; they
are usually searching for the more com
mon metals, anyway, and il is likely
that many possible valuable discoveries
are overlooked. Thomas +. Walsh con-
tr1buted 10 Colorado School OF Mines
a fund of $4,000 to be used in encour-
aging increased production of uranium
ores. and IL is said to be bearing fruit.
