as well as the work of repairing the
shaft, which was slightly damaged
at different points by the falling of
the baler.
General Manager Charles d. Will
kinson stated that he is now await
ing the receipt of the new parts for
the compressor, which was damaged
by the flames. The parts and a new
100 h. p. electric motor to drive the
compressor have been shipped from
Denver, Colo, where they were pur-
chased by President H. A. Riedel.
The new fifty h. p. electric hoist will
replace the 112 h. p. hoist damaged
by the fire, temporarily at least, has
been installed and is now engaged in

WESTERN ORE PURCHASING co.
is REMODELING IT'S
PLANT

In consequence of the increasing
activity throughout the Goldfield
district, the Western Ore Purchasing
company is preparing to reopen its
local sampling plant, after a close
down of about two years. The plant
is being remodeled and when again
placed in operation within the next
thirty days it will be automatic
throughout, which will result in a
great reduction in the cost of oper-
alton.
Up to the time of it's suspension
all ores samplued at the plant were
unloaded and reloaded by hand,
which required a force of from Is
to 20 men. Under the new ar
rangement, it will be possible for
the company to operate the plant at
maximum capacity witt a force of
three or four men.
A large force of workmen is busi-
ly engaged il remodeling the sam
pier. On the north side of the
structure a fifty-ton receiving bin
is being built Immediately beneath
the unloading railroad tracks. Aft
er being dropped into this bin, the
ores will be conveyed by a belt to
the crusher inside of the building.
From the crusher the ores will be
raised seventy feet by bucket ele-
vator, automatically sampled
and deposited into fifty-ton bin,
from which they will run through q
chute into cars on the "out-loading"

DEEP

AS greater depth is gained in the
winze below the 700-fot level. the
interest of the public in the opera
tions at the property of the Reor-
gained Kewanas Mining company in
creases. This is due to the fact
that the objective point of the winze
is the famous contact of latte and
shale, the discovery of great bodies
of ore along which in the Jumbo Ex-
tension, in particular, is responsible
for the rejuvenation of Goldfield and
the present-day activity. Bounded
on the west by the Laguna mine OF
the Goldfield Consolidated Mines
company and adjoined on the south
by the Jumbo Extension mine, the
Kewanas territory has long been
regarded as possessing a great fu-
ture, and since the resumption of
work by the company the operations
have been watched with keen inter
est.

of the eastern boundary line of the

Ernest, who departed last Tuesday
from Goldfielj for Los Angeles To
spsbd the holiday season with his
fan lily. From Los Angeles he will
go to San Francisco to confer With
James r. Davis, president of The
company. Speaking of conditions
at the mine, Mr.. Ernest said:
For the last three months we
have been busy sinking the main
shaft from the $50 to the 1.00O-foot
level. At about the 95O-foot point,
the shaft passed through new vein
which we have designated as the
shaft VEIN 1t is thirty feet in
width and the footwall section gave
values of $50 per ton. However, we
decided not to attempt to explore 1t
until the shaft work and the cutting
of the station at the 1.-000-foot lev
ell were finished. These were COM
pleeted a few days ago and we sai,-
eed prospect drift along the foot
wall of the new vein. The first
three rounds of shots, according to
assays from samples taken from
mine cars of the ore as broken down
gave returns of $51, $2S1, and S61

say was obtained just as | was
leaving camp. The drift will be
continued.

new ORE SHOOT
At THE TAlMAGE
FOURTH ORE BODY REVEALED
BY DRIFT ON 25O-FOOT
LEVEL

A new shoot of ore of good value
and width has been opened up by
the south drift on the west vein from
the west crosscut on the 250-foot
level of the property of the Tai
mage Gold Mines company on Vim
dicator mountain in the northeast
ern section of the Goldfield district.
General Manager C. w. Hayes is au-
thority for the above statement.
The drift, according to Manager
Hayes, has been advanced total of
235 feet and in that distance has re-
vealed four distinct shoots of ore OF
good grade with low grade rock be-
tween them. The shoots show an
average width of three and half
feet and the three thus far penetrat-
ed are from forty to 12O feet in
length. The drift is at present ex-
posing a full face of ore that aver
ages around $50 per ton, with a
streak that runs more than 5000 a
ton.
On the 3O0-foot level, the south
drift from the east crosscut has
been advanced siXty-five feet along
the east vein. 1t has exposed a
full width of $8 ore all the way, with
a four-inch streak of $45 rock On
the 3OO-foot level, prosecuting east
continues to intercept big vein
which outcrops on the surface, lying
parallel to what is known as the
east vein. The crosscut is now out
about 135 feet. The face is expos
ing andesite and during the last day
or two water has been coming from
the drill holes, which is taken by
the management as an indication
that the vein will soon be revealed.

NEVADA EAGLE
AGAIN ACTIVE
COMPANY RESUMES OPERATIONS
AFTER CI.OSE-DOWN OF
YEAR AND HALF

After a close-down of nearly a
Mining company has resumed opera
tions at the property, which is locat-
ed three miles west of Goldfield.
Manager Houlahan states that it Is
the intention of the company to push
the future development of the prop
erty as vigorously as possible.
BY work performed in recent
years, the property consisting OF
nine claims, has been extensively
opened up. Three shafts have been
sunk to depths of 450, $50 and 110
feet and all have been connected
with drifts or crosscuts. Although
several veins have been exposed In
the property, work is at present be-
ing confined to the cleaning out of a
long drift on the 250foot level on
what is known as the northwest
ledge, which has caved slightly for
Il
this work is completed, operations
will be resumed in west crosscut
from the drift to intercept big par
allel vein.
The crosscut has already been ad-
vanced ninety feet, and it is estimat-
ed that the objective point will be
reached with an additional sixty feet
of work. The vein referred to var
les in width from four to fifteen feet
and gives assays ranging from 80
to several hundred dollars ton.
In addition to a large tonnage of
mill ore lying on the dumps and eX-
posed in the workings, the property
has shipped more than $4,000 worth
of ore.

THIRD RAISE IN

NOT EXPECTED TO REVEAL
CONTACT UNTIL AFTER

Unless it maintains it's normal dip
to the southeast to greater de-
gree than has been shown in the
workings Immediately above, the ia
nous contact of latte and shale is
not likely to be disclosed before the

tension.
The contour of the shale as re-
vealed by the northeast and south
west drifts from the station at the
top of vertical raise 5O3-C leads
Consulting Engineer j. X. Turner to
believe that the new raise will not
expose the contact at a lesser height
above the crosscut than that at
which it was disclosed by the for
mer raise, namely, forty-two feet.
After passing from the Shale at the
height named, vertical raise 503-C
penetrated eight feet of $22 rock be-
fore exposing the richer portion of
the downward extension of the now
famous ore body. This raise was
put up from the crosscut at a point
122 feet east of the eastern boun-
Diary line of the Poleverda claim.
by that raise. the crosscut has been
extended an additional seventy feet,
giving it a total length of approx
mately $50 feet from the Poleverda
claim line, and the new raise-504-
was started few days ago ten
{ back rom the face. The new
raise is now up about ten feet. On
account of the necessity of timber
ing the new raise closely, compa
lively slow progress is being made
in the work and, therefore, the man
agement does not expect it to reveal
the contact until after the advent OF
the new year.
That the northeast and south
west drifts from the station at the
top of vertical raise 503-C and the
other workings being extended in the
ore body are yielding splendidly Is
pies from the 100 tons of mixed ore
shipped daily give values averaging
from $55 to $50 per ton. The north
east drift referred to has been ex-
tended fifty feet and the face is
yielding five feet of $50 ore. From
the face of the southwest drift
which has a length of sixty feet, five
feet of rock assaying $40 per ton
is being mined. Six feet of $50 ore
is being broken down in $40 stope
above the east drift on shale "A
level. which is eighteen feet below
the 921-foot level. The southwest
drift being advanced along the con
tact on the same level into the
Poleverda claim for exploratory pur-
poses is now 100 feet in length from
the Velvet claim line. Above the
east drift on the 921-foot level,
stope Ala is being advanced on four
feet of $25 ore, which is considered
low grade and which is mixed with
the higher grade product of the 9TH
er workings in the daily shipments.
