BIG MINING DEAL
REPORTED FROM
MOGOLLON
Wisconsin Corporation Takes
Over Golden Link Group Of
Claims with Exclusive Gold
and Silver Ores,

Another important mining deal is
reported from the Mogollon district
which has resulted in the taking over
Of the Golden Link group of claims
by the Golden Link Mining company,
Q Wisconsin corporation.
According to the Silver City indie
pendent the property involved con
sists of q group of eight contiguous
claims. the same being the Golden
Link Nos. 1. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, Z and 8. The
claims lie on Upper Dry Creek in the
Mogollon Range n are about twelve
miles south of the town Of Mogollon.
The ore is very similar in character
to that which is now paying SO hand
somely in the operation of the Ernes-
tine and Little Fannie mines in that
district. The values are exclusively in
gold and silver, the former being
greatly in excess of the latter.
In a 100 foot tunnel which has at
tanned a vertical depth of rs feet,
there has been encountered a three
foot vein which has an average value
of IS in gold. In another tunnel
which has been run in about 10 feet
there is a two foot vein which carries
an average value Of IS in gold and
silver. At the bottom of a 35 foot
shaft a vein has been uncovered
which averages SIS in gold and sill
yer. Considering the size of the veins
and the shallow depths at which they
yield these values, the proposition
seems to bear the ear-marks of a
genuine bonanza. In addition to
these fine average veins ii is reported
hat in an incline shaft which is only
feet deep. assays ave been secur-
ed which run as high as 500 TO the
ton in gold.
A Ia roo pppal xrhfaB no rpina ga1ffi-I
cient water all the year aroun to run
a good sized min flows directly
through several of the claims. The
water from this creek can easily be
utilized for furnishing power. thus
greatly reducing the expense of OPP
Grating both mill and mine. In addl-
ton to this It is said that there is an
supply of timber on and in
close proximity to the property
The former n of the property
are w. p. Dorsey of his city and 0.
n. Zook of Glenwood, n. NJ, each OF
whom held "a half interest in the
group. The latter has a camp on the
and most OF the assessment
and development work has been done
under his supervision.
The Golden Link Mining company
Of Superior, Wis, which only recent
ly took the property over, is incorpor-
with q capital of $3.50, 600. The
officers Of the company are said to
substantial and well to do business
of that place. Upon completion
of the necessary arrangements the

work with the intention of erect
ing q mill for treating the ore as soon
