GOOD RUN OF ORE REPORTED
AT THE JUSTICE MINE

AL. MINIS and partners, who have
a lease on the Justice mine, recently
had a 200-ton milling or ore from
that property which proved a profit
able one. The ore was milled at the
Mcllgue mill in Silver City and the
bullion sold at Carson. 1t is said
that this ore showed average values
around $40 per ton. The ore was eX-
tracted from the upper levels of the
property above the Justice drain tun-
mel and near the early day workings.
1t looks as if the Justice would come
to the front soon with a still larger
production, it's total bullion yield to
date being above $4,000, 600. Much
work is being done by the lessees
with a very favorable outlook.-Vir-
ginia Chronicle.

INCREASES ITS PRODUCTION
CONTINUED from Page One)

CONTINUED from Page One)
operations in the raise started about
ten days ago in the working at a
point about 220 feet from the Pole
verda claim. This raise is now up
about fifty feet and is yielding four
feet of $40 ore. 1t is the intention
to continue this raise up to the inter-
mediate level drift, a total distance of
104 feet, before stopping operations
are inaugurated. Incidentally, ore
extracted in the extension of and
above the intermediate level drift will
be handled through the raise referred
to. At a point 40 feet from the
+ oleverda claim line in the drift into
the Velvet claim, a north crosscut
has neen started into the shale foot
wall. This will be advanced twenty
feet and a raise then made to the
vein, which lays very fiat, dipping to
the southeast thirty degrees from the
horizontal. When the raise is CON-
pleted, stopping operations will be
started.
From the west side of the big stope
of the Poleverda claim, above the
921-foot level, eighteen inches of $50
ore is being stopped. From the top of
the 97-foot raise above the east
cTosscut from the main southeast
Crosscut on the 1O17-foot level, the
south drift on the vein has been ex-
tended twenty-five feet from the point
at which connection was made with
j21-foot level west drift, immediate
ly beneath the big stope on the latter
level. The face of this drift has a
width OF eight feet and the ore be-
ing broken down from it averages
s19 a ton. On account of unusual
size of the face, two machine drills
are being used in advancing the
drift, which is producing a large ton
mage of ore. At the present face of
the DRIFT. the vein is ten feet wide
but two feet of low grade ore is be-
ing left on the hanging wall. There is
an equal as good showing in the
north drift toward the Velvet claim
which has a length of fifteen feet,
but operations in the lace have been
suspended temporarily in conse-
quence of the heavy output of the
south drift.

GOLD EXCITEMENT
IN BEAVER COUNTY

MILFORD Robinson tells of lots of
excitement over the East noun
tains. about fifteen miles northeast
of Beaver City, There there are
more prospectors at work than in any
other section of Utah, says the Bea-
Yer County News. 1t. begins to look
as if the real big gold district of the
Rocky Mountain west is about to be
opened there. That many big gold
mines will be opened seems certain.
Thirty more Goldfeld and Tono-
pah prospectors are reported to have
gone out from Beaver into the East
mountains on Tuesday and Wednes-
day. They seem daffy over the
marvellous richness of the Newton
district. They are delighted with the
possibilities and predict that many
big mines are going to be developed
in hat neck O. woods. "a second

STRIKE MADE IN
CACTUS DISTRICT
LINCOLN CONSOLIDATED OPENS
UP TWO FINE BODIES
OF ORE.

After operations over the greater
part of the last six years, an ex-
cellent discovery of ore has been
made in the property of the Lincoln
Consolidated Mining company in the
Cactus district, about thirty miles
east of Goldfield, according to B. H.
Ballard of Minneapolis, Mimi, and
Albert TAFT, treasurer and superin-
tendent, respectively, of the compa-
ny, who have just arrived in town
from their camp.
At a point 265 feet from it's portal
the drift tunnel on the vein has re-
vealed two distinct bodies of ore of
an excellent craze, separated by a
horse" of country rocn. Against
the hanging wall of dacite is six feet
of quartz in which gold values pre-
dominate and from which specimens
showing free gold to the naked eye
have been taken. No assays have
been made but Messrs. TAFT and Bal
lard are confident that the orebody
will average better than $50 a ton
for its entire width. On the footwall
side of the vein, there is exposed five
feet of quartz, in which silver pre-
dominates, Messrs. TAFT and Ballard
being certain that it will average $50
a ton.

opment work in the mine, / made
a thorough examination at all points
accessible. / found that there Is a
very large tonnage of low grade ore
above the 1OO-foot level, as well as
about 5000 tons of ore broken in the
old Quartzite stope below the 100
foot level. The water in the main
shaft is up to a point 80 feet below
the 150-foot level and nearly all the
workings on this level have been
filled with waste rock.
While the ore now exposed in the
workings and on the dumps is not OF
high enough grade to ship, there is
no question but what 1t can be han
died at a good profit to the company
by the installation or proper equip
ment and the erection of a small
mill on the ground. There is about
10000 tons of ore available of the
gross value of $4,000. About 70
per cent of this ore IS on the dumps
and in fills in old slopes. Nearly
all of it is oxidized and a very good
extraction of values could be OBJ
tanned by plate amalgamation and
concentration, as tests have shown.
From the data that I have pre-
pared, l am quite sure that suffi-
cient water could be developed in the
main working shaft to operate a
small plant. I am of the opinion that
the ore now available on the property
would pay for the entire necessary
equipment on the mine and the erec-
ton of a small mill and at the end
of eighteen months we could show
a net profit of at least 100000. The
present development work is being
carried on in as economical a man
ner as possible. 1 have hopes Of de-
veloping ore of sufficient value to
ship and to apply the profits from
such shipments on the purchase and
installation of the necessary equip
ment for the economical handling of
the low grade ore, as we'll as the I'M

property at greater depth"

COLORADO man
LIKES G0LDF|ELD
COMMISSIONER OF MINES OF TIL
STATE VISITING DIS
TRICT.

"Goldfield should be an infinitely
better camp five years from now than
it is today"
Such was the observation of T. r.
IHenahen, commissioner of mines OF
Colorado, who is a visitor to Gold
field district, in attendance upon his
h~alf-brother, James Mclaughlin, for
merly superintendent of the french
Western Exploration and Reduction
company property in the Tokop dis
trict, who is a patient at st. Marys
hospital. Mr.. Henahen arrived in
camp from his home in Denver last
Sunday and, although he has not Wis
tied any of the underground work
ings of the mines, he has thoroughly
familiarized himself with local con-
ditions through conversations with
his many Goldfield friends who for
merly resided in Colorado. Continu-
ing, Mr.. Henahen said:
This is not my first visit to Gold
field. l have visited the camp sew
eral times, the last about seven years
ago. Goldfield has certainly proven
a wonderful district. It's early OPP
erations, comparatively speaking.
were really without significance. I
am firmly convinced that it's greatest
fame as a mineral producing center
is yet to be gained.
1.-The strike in the Atlanta proper
ty. at a depth of 1,75O feet, should
I,,olro CD1lf;o1l Nno IF tho Orootocf
camps in the country; it makes APP
parent the potentialities of the dis
trict at depth. The copper values
contained in the Atlanta ore is par
ticularly pleasing to me, as copper is
an indication of %permanency and I
believe that with depth-more depth,
some wonderful copper mines should
be developed here. Just at present
the district is at the stage in it's life
where the operators are learning of
the real geological conditions and it's
possibilities"
sioner Henahen said:
Colorado is in very good condi-
ton. 1t produced last year in pre-
cious and rare metals approximately
$57, 700 900. The rare mineral in
dustry is becoming a Great n in
Colorado. Within it's confines are
found pitch blende, carrying gold,
silver. copper, lead zinc and iron ant
carnotite, carrying vanadium and
uranium. Radium is extracted from
the latter. Colorado produced last
year 1900 tons of carnotlue ore. We
expect the Standard Chemical COM
pany to produce this year not less
than twenty grams or radium. There
is no need of my commenting upon
the precious metal production of the
state in detail. 1t is suffice to say
that the industry is we'll maintaining
