Manager Frederick Bradshaw OF
the Tonopah Development company
returned last Sunday morning from
Surf Inlet, B.. c., where he has been
for several weeks looking after the
development of the company's prop
erty at that place.
In an interview with a represen-
tative of the Miner, Mr.. Bradshaw
expressed considerable satisfaction
both with the amount of work done
at Surf Inlet and the results of that
portion consisting of actual devel-
opment work in the mine itself.
The Belmont company took hold
of this property in May last, and the
work to date has necessarily con-
sisted largely of installing the plant
and building boarding houses and
the usual surface improvements.
There are many drawbacks to this
work in a country such as that about
Surf Inlet, many of these drawbacks
being in the way of getting in sup
plies to the property. However, the
plant is now completely installed and
has been running steadily for three
months. Development has been
steadily prosecuted in the old lower
tunnel which is being driven on the
weir and the ore showing here is
most satisfactory.
At the BelmOnt's Tonopah mine
development and production pro-
ceeded uninterruptedly and the mill
is kept busy with the usual grade OF
ore.
Seventeen different places in the
mine, furnishing various grades of
ore, contribute to the tonnage sent
to the mill.
A new strike was made when a
raise off a crosscut on the 100 e v
ell of the Desert Queen shaft cut the
footwall of the Belmont Vein. The
raise now shows four feet of pretty
good mill ore, and the hanging wall
is not yet reached.
TOnOpah FIX.
Developments at the Tonopah Ex-
tension mine are of more than pass
ing interest this week, not only on
account of the Importance of the
work that is actually being done,
but on account of it's bearing upon
the future earnings of the company.
For some time past a slzeable
force has been employed in install
ing new machinery, improvements
and additions to the milling plant,
on the completion of which the Elk
tension company will be able to treat
from 60 to Is tons per day more
than at present. This will very ma
t~erially increase the
All of this new machinery for the
mill is now installed, with h excep-
ton of the new battery of ten
stamps. The concrete foundation
for the new stamps is now complete
and new ore bins which go back OF
the battery are being erected. These
will be completed in about ten days.
after which the battery will be In
stalled.
Among the additions to the mill
ing plant which have lately been In
stalled are eight concentrating ia
bles. a new tube mill, another Dorr
tbickener and six new zinc boxes.
