MINES AT KINGMAN
w. P. Anderson. of CINCINNATI, Be
comes Interested in Shovel and
Pick Group and Success.


Kingman, Ariz-, Aug. Through the
visit here Of ". P. Anderson, of Gin
cinnati, three mining properties have
been well financed. Mr.. Anderson has
been associated for a long time with
Charles Nelson in the Arizona L. group,
but now he has gone in with the lat
ter in the development of the Shovel
and Pick group. one OF the most prom
Using in this section.
Besides financing these properties,
Anderson bought a big amount of the
treasury stock of the Success Gold Min
, ing company, which will put that com
pany at ease in money matters for
many months.
On the Arizona L. the vein has been
cut in place in the upper tunnel and
work on the property viii center in its
development for the present. A con-
tract will be let and work started soon
for 500 feet of tunnel TO open up at
depth the vein on the Shovel claim Of
the Pick and Shovel group The crop
pings and float on this claim are very
rich.
At the Flake the winze has been
sunk to a depth of 300 feet below the
300 level and the ore showing cOntin-
ues excellent. Owing to the Windiass-
ing from this depth, work was dis
continued here and a raise commenced
to connect the 300-fOot level with the
drift from the shaft.
The vein in the lower tunnel at the
Buckeye is widening. The quartz has
the same characteristics as in the up
per tunnel but it is not so rich at this
point The vein on the Little Devil has
been cut in the lower crOsscut tunnel
AT THIS point, however the ore Is low
grade and a drift was started to catch
the high grade shoot opened in the up
per tunnel
Preparatory work at the Alphas is
proceeding rapidly. In the mine the
men are cutting a station in which the
engine VIII be installed. A new con-
tract has been let to extend the cross
cut in the Success mine from the 400
level
William COrbridge has brought in
some ore from a group on Bearpaw
mountain, owned by himself and J. 7.
Mccormick From a siX-inch streak
ne gets ore that paintings indicate
would run about 500 per ton, while the
whole face of the drift pans well
The main. shaft at the properties of
the Telluride Mining, Milling & DeYel-
opmenC company is now down 200 feet
and a crOsscut from this level has
opened a vein of splendid milling ore
A large amount of machinery is be-
ing hauled to the Frisco mine to be in
stalled in the mill When all additions
have been made this property will be
among the big gold producers Of Ari-
On the property of the Kingman Cop
per company the drill has reached a
depth below 300 feet where the strik-
ing Of copper sulphide was expected
daily Other holes that were sunk 800
feet entered the copper zone in the sui
phides.
Several hundred tons of ore are now
going forward from the Tennessee and
other mines daily. The rainbow Noun
tain mine is also sending out a good
tonnage of ore
1t is reported that Tom Sickles is
opening up one of the richest ore bod
les ever found on the east side Of the
WalIapal mountains. Specimens of the
ore are laced together with gold and
are very attractive
Work has been temporarily suspend
ed on the Valley View mine, the heavy
ore encountered at the bottom of the
new shaft and in the drift toward the
old workings requiring big timber to
hold it.
The mill at the mines of the Nevada
Arizona Mining company is fast near
ing completion and viii go into COM
mission within a short time.
