Where Gold I. Found

Professor Arthur Lakes has an
interesting article in Mining
Science of last week on the pos
lsibiliiies of the finding of ano'h-
er gold camp similar to that of
the Cripple Greek District or the
old vein of the Bassich mine in
Rosita District which was dis
covered and operated thirty years
ago and produced many millions
of d liars worth of telluride of
gold ores. 1t appears that all of
the mines of Cripple Creek as al
so the old Bassick property had
their god deposited in the volcan
ic craters and that most of the
lold ever found in the country
had its origin in the erupiive >or
volcanic rocks, which leads to the
conclusion that the most tangible
place. to look for This precious
metal is amongst tie areas cover
