Values in Tailings.

The taiIings thus appear to have aver
aged at least ST per ton. and after be-
ing worked by the original milling COM
pany to grade OF perhaps 81 per ton
they were reworked. 1t may be assumed
with safety that there are none OF them
left with an average value In excess OF
81 per ton, On this assumption the ulti-
mate bullion production from the ore
under consideration was probably S31.-
500. 900, more than appears in the rec
ords.
1t can, in short hardly be doubted that
the ore produced In the bonanza period
has yielded bullion to a value of S144.-
600 900 lnsthead Of SIP, 100000, as COM
monty supposed, and the total produc-
tion OF bullion from the mine to date has
thus been s165, 900, 900. instead OF s135.-
100000 popularity attributed to it,
a just conception OF these figures can
best be had by comparison. and so 1t may
be mentioned that while the, 1910 feet Of
the lode belonging to us have yielded
s16b 600. 900 and paid over SIS 10000 in
dividends, recent publication attributes
to the whole camp OF Tonopah since 1901
a production of but s5l, 900. 900. and divl-
dends somewhat in excess of SIS, 600, 600
