GOLDFIELD, New, Feb. SIN an
interview today j. r. Finlay, manager
of the Goldfeld Consolidated Mines
company, denies emphatically widely
circulated reports that copper is re-
placing gold values or increasing in
quantity at depth in the mine, and
says there is no more copper at the
1O00-foot level than at the surface or
elsewhere.
The report is readily traceable to
bearish interests in New York and is
absolutely without the slightest foun-
dation.

GOLCONDA MAKES
SHIPPING RECORD

KINGMAN, Feb. S.-During the
month of January the Golconda mine
reached the high mark in ore ship
ments, the total tonnage being 1920
tons, and the average zinc content be-
ing close to so per cent. This gives a
daily production of forty-two and one
half tons of marketable ore, besides
which there was placed on the dumps
several thousand tons of a grade too
low to ship with profit and which will
later on be dressed up in mill and
shipped to the smelter as concentrate.
Work is now progressing on the big
tunnel that is to reach far below the
present level of the Golconda and
which will open up a large area of
ground from the portal of the Pros
perity to its connection with the present
workings of the Golconda. Throughout
this ground known ore bodies have
been located, and it is the belief that
shipable ore will be encountered
throughout the entire distance.
No property that has been opened up
in this county in recent years has been
brought into the shipping and dividend
class in the short time that the Col
canda has been in operation.
The report is current that George
Miller and man named Meredith have
made a strike of great importance in
Empire wash some distance south of
Thumb Butte The vein is said to be
about four feet wide and assays nearly
$780, The new strike shows spar and
quartz and is one of the best looking
veins in that whole section. The dis
coverers are working on the property
and already have a large amount Of
ore on the dumps.

Nears Main Vein

At the Carter mines the crosscut
from the bottom of the shaft is near
ing the main vein, water showing in
the face of the drift. A stringer of
ore sixteen inches wide is being drifted
on, which runs at right angles with the
main vein. This stringer carries ex-
cellent ore and 1t is probable that it
will become larger as the main part of
the big dixie through which it runs is
reached.
