A car OF ore shipped from the Khe-
dine property in Ouray county re-
turned $50 per ton.
A three-foot body Of ore has beeL
opened in the Hoosac tunnel at Idaho
Springs which returns $12 per ton.
Oscar Fogleman, lessee on the w. P.
H. property on Ironclad hill, Cripple
Creek, sent out ten cars in July, the
ore running better than milling grade.
Manager Frank Leonard of the Cash
mine, located at Magnolia, Boulder
county. sent a nine-pound retort OF
gold to the Denver mint worth $4,000,
the result of twenty-six days work at
the mine
At Eldora in Boulder county the
chief property is the Enterprise mine.
1t has in sight large quantity of me-
dunn and shipping grade gold Gre of
the telluride class yielding $40 to 5000
per ton. The tunnel is in distance
of 1900 feet.
Several sets Of sub-lessees under
Glider G. Co. are working the Last
Dollar mine at Cripple Creek on their
own account and making a good pro-
duction of ore which settles at price
which is better than milling grade.
These lessees are also going ahead
with some development work
The lease of Shaffer Bros. & Co., ex-
tending from the eleventh to the
eighth level of the Gem mine, Idaho
Springs, with no restrictions as to
length, is proving to be one Of this
richest producers of the camp. The
streak of solid smelling ore varies
from eight to nine feet in width. the
values ranging $35 and upward per
ton in gold.
From the Gold King mine in Power
ty gulch, Cripple Creek,-this being
the first mine located in the Cripple
Creek district-an output of fifty cars
a month or thereabouts is being made,
shipping having been resumed follow
ing the completion of an extended
plan of development work undertaken
by Lessee Owen Roberts and several
sets of sub-lessees.
simultaneously with the announce
ment that the Rexall Mining Company,
a large Colorado corporation, has pur-
chased $500 acres of placer ground
and 700 acres of lode claims near Rol-
linsville in Gilpin county, for a con-
sideration of nearly a million dollars
comes the announcement that the
company's mine in Victor will start
shfpping at the rate of three cars a
week.
From the Half Moon ON Gold hill
Cripple Creek. owned by the Stratton
estate, Lessee James MCGEE is ship
ping two cars a week of ore which
runs better than milling grade. At the
bottom of an old cave on the eighth
level of the main shaft the ore vein
was encountered and it appears to be
permanent one. From ore already
in sight, shipments Of two cars y
week will be permitted for some time
tocome.
Bennett C Richie, leasing a portion
of the Pinto shaft of the Free Coinage
estate, Cripple Creek, after drifting
north on the Black Dyke, going to
ward the Isabella, have opened up a
streak which runs IS a pound. The
streak. it is said, is from five to eight
inches wide. Two machines were
working on SIS ore when the vein
went into the rich stuff. Facilities
have been arranged for the shipping
of car a day, but because of lack OF
hosting capacity three cars a week il
all that is being shipped.
