Tonopah Miner Gives Details
of Recent Discovery at

The most encoura ging development
that has ever occurred in the Halifax
Tonopah mine was made this week on

The west drift was run from main

the shaft to che south line Of the Mlzpah
Extension ground, encountcring con-
tact about eighty feet south OF that line.
Drifting was commenced on this contact,
some quartz being encountered at inter
walls. The contact was followed In q

ORIGIN Of PLACER
GOLD IS EXPLAINED

What Is conceded to be one of the most
important discoveries in recent years at
Manhattan is strike on the Manhatta n
Crescent property by the Rymal- Cholsla |.
lease. A zone fifty feet In width ranges
In value from SO to $40 gold per ton. and
the fortunate leasers are preparing to
glory-hole the find. One peculiar phase
OF this discovery that Is not unusual in
the naming game is the fact that a sixty
foot shaft was driven right OH the edge
OF this large ore body, but its presence
was not disclosed until several surface
cuts and churn drill holes showed the en-
istence of the yellow metal
For some time past the two small can
yons making away from this rich ridge
have provided considerable placer gold
and the prospecting done as a result
failed to center upon this ridge until the
two leasers above named concluded that
the ridge was responsible for this metal
The leasers will break the whole body
down by the glory hole method and send
rock TO the custom mills of the district
Manhattan is making a splendid record
OF production. 1T is one of the most sue
cessful gold camp OF Nevada, yet there
is seldom anything mentioned about the
camp. perhaps for that reason.

JANUARY AT NEVADA
DOUGLAS PROPERTIES

The Nevada Douglas Copper company
mas issued a tatement showing that the
January production measured 1876 tons
oil ore, containing LII 691 pounds Of
copper The development work on the
ludwig mine is being pushed ahead on
the first. second, fourth, nth. sixth and
seventh levels. the work on. the FIRST level
being farther south than any of the
others and ii continues TO show the same
streak of high-srade carbonate orc
found above.
On the sixth level which is the next
iarthest south, the face is all gossan with
cdrpoha,eS OF commercial value. This Is
considered OF much importance, as the
races OF the first and sixth levels are ap-
proHimately 200 feet south OF the inter
mediate levels, thus giving section OF
ground zoo feet long and 500 feet deep OF
exceptionally good prospective vaue.
The new Douglas Hill tunnel is now in
operation, thereby saving the company
materially in costs OF production and opeu-
Ing all that part OF the mine for stopIne

Feiopments in the coming future will
