1 dritt on the aSU level Oi the BOun- dary Cone mine, near Oaiman. pick cd up nuggets from what they thought to be waste material that were estimated 10 have a value of from so to Sl00 in gold each. An examination of the orc that was be- ing taken out disclosed it's value to be in the neighborhood of SiW.0OO to the ton, the quartz bearing masses of gold The night shift had shot into this mass of gold and when it became known the whole camp went wild. the miners and prospectors rushing out to that place 10 get a glimpse of the wonderful ore. Those that have seen the ore report that it is something like tha, found years ago in the old Moss mine and which gave values of nearly Si0O.00O to the ton. The ore was found about, [ 100 feet east of the main shaft on the Is0 level. the orc prior 10 the night of the discovery showing a value of about $50 to the ton. The men who found the nuggets went wild over their discovery and re- ported the find to Superintendent ! VaSsar. who is now at the mine guarding the treasure. Many mug gets were picked up from the brok- | cni ore that were quite large and the balance of the mass was found to be filled with gold chispas. The vein is partly in the older and newer andesite. the present strike being far below the contact.
 While the company has been get ting some very rich ore nothing like the present strike has ever been made in the district. The company was originally organized in Pres cott many of the business men of that place holding the original issue of stock. IL is understood that the head office of the company is now located at Los Angeles, where some of the stock is held
 The striking of this rich orc at Oatman will give mining in that sec tion an impetus such as has never before been seen in the country. all though the Tom Reed has done much to attract the attention of mining men to that camp.
 The aerial tram that is to bring the ore from the Rainbow mine to the foot of the mountain, at Chlor- idle, Is now in commission and is sending the orc in large quantities into the big bins, IL is expected that as soon as the railroad is completed to that point the ores will be sent out 10 the smcIters. The mine Is in shape to ship great quantity of ore. high in lead. gold and silver values.
 Ioper and Carney are developing their mines, east of Blackberry, and are. getting big results The claims have been producing from the grass roots. considerable ore and baliion having been sent out to the smeltcrs and mint. The shaft is now reach. ing toward the water level. where d change in the character of the ore may be expected. Besides. gold this ore carries vaiues tn copper and 1t h confidently expected that it will develop into a high grade copper gold mine The property is situated in one of the most accessible sec, tions of the Cottonwood mining dis irict, near Wright Greek.
 F.. P. Lambert. of St. Louis, who Is the owner of valuable mining property in the Gold Basin section, IS in town awaiting the arrival of machinery recently shipped from BMstow. He states that the devei- opmcnt work done on his mines the past year or two has opened up a body of ore l6 feet wide that carries values ranging s 10 ss0 to the ton in gold. The vein shows strongly along the ouicrop, and wherever sampled gold values have been found. ! With cheap power and plenty of water the Gold Easing section would become one of the great gold pro. duecrs of the state.

Bagg has been remodeling his mill at the Cyelopic mine and new has 1t in the best shape The mine is showing up splendid values, which the milli now able to save to high percentage, The shaft on this property has reached depth of 400 feet although the deepest point perdendioularly Is not over 100 feet, Along the entire depth of this opening the ore body shows up we'll. some of the ore running very high in gold.
