There were no unusual develop
ments at the Tonopah Extension dur
ing the week. The mine is keeping
up its steady lick of ore production
and new developments, while the
mill as steadily grinds away on
the extraction of the gold and silver
values.
The gross output of the Extension
or the month of October will be the
same as that for August and Sep
tember, but the earnings in dollars
and cents will be somewhat less.
owing to the drop in the price OF
silver. A difference of five or six
cents per ounce does not seem very
big, when the production runs into
the tens and hundreds of thousands
of ounces the difference shows very
materially.
