Mohave County miner., 1911-05-27
Mines of the County


 mining man, last week made an ex- animation of mining property close in to the Tom Reed. He was much pleased with the looks of the prop erty and it is probable that he will finance the development of the mines.
 w. D. Grannis, of Pasadena, passed through Kingman Thursday on his way to the Cedar country, where he is operating some mines. He reports that the mines are looking fine and that he expects to open up some of the big producers of that section.
 L. R. Scott is doing the annual as- sessment work on the Warner group of mines in Secret Pass. He expects to have the mines examined by Neva- da people soon and will begin active development some time next week. The mines are the most promising in the district.
 s. F. Lindsay, formerly a commits sioner of Nye county, Nevada, is in Kingman, having spent several months looking over the mining section in the neighborhood of Signal. Mir. Lindsay is interested in mining property in the Gold Basin section. He intends to look over the country south of Gold road
 Richard Lloyd, one of the best known of the mining engineers of the coast, who has been examining the Jackman property the past week, re- turned to his Los Angeles home few days ago. He was well pleased with the property and it is probable that it will be taken over by the interests that he represents.
 William O'Dea came in from the Pilgrim mines few days ago and is looking after business in town. He has completed the assessment work on the mines for the year 1911 and has made good showing on the property. The Pilgrim group is considered one of the best groups of mines in the river range, and it is certain that they will not long remain idle.
 Superintendent Wilhelm has force of thirteen men at work on the Har- rison group of mines, in the Secret Pass section, and is getting splendid results. Two shafts are being sunk on the properties and these will soon be equipped with hoisting machinery. The ore now being taken from one of the shafts is very rich, while the other shows high grade of milling ore.
 Fl. M. Bowen returned from Los An geles the first of the week and is get ting things in shape to work his prop critics at Layne Springs with a good force of men. The mine is now show ing up we'll and the ore in sight can be broken down and shipped at a large profit. It is probable that the property will be incorporated and that much of the good mining property sur rounding the Jamieson mines will be | taken over.
 Work on the Copperville road over the Wallapais is being rushed and it is expected that the greater part of the grade will be completed by the | first of July. As soon as the grade is complete new machinery will be sent | in to the mine and it is probable that the big concentrating mill will be | hauled in and erected at the mines. The company expect to do big things in the way of development on the prop | critics before the mill is ready to run.
 Five cars of lumber are expected to- day, consigned to the Tom Reed com pany. The Tom Reed people are con- templating many improvements at Oatman and before summer is over they will have many commodions buildings for officer quarters and resi- dences for employees. The camp at present is one of the most ideal in the county, the people having fitted up places with a view of remaining. Many women and children live in the camp and employment is given pre- ferably to married men.
 A party of mining men from Denver arrived in Kingman yesterday and have gone out to the Bi-Metal mine, south of Kingnan for the purpose of making an examination. It is under stood that a mining engineer is expeet-
