Merger PUMPS
IN OPERATION
BEGIN LIFTING WATER FROM
SUMP OF 18OO-FOOT
SHAFT

The properties of the Goldfield
Merger Mines company and the At
lanta Mines company entered upon
what promises to prove the real
epoch-making period of their his
tory Thursday, when the new big
pumps, installed In the st. Ives or
main working shaft OF the former,
through which both are operated,
were placed in commission. With
out a single hitch, the pumps re-
sponded when the electric current
was turned on by A. l. Darcy, gen.
eral manager of both companies,
and began raising water from the
sump of the 1S00-foot shaft to the
surface.
Record time was made not only In
the transportation of the pumps
from the plant of the manufactur-
ers in Dayton, Ohio, to Goldfield, but
in their installation in the shaft aft
or arrival here. They left Dayton
on Oct and reached camp on Oct.
20. Prior to the arrival of the
pumps on the ground, Manager
darcy completed preparations for
their installation, including the
placing of six-inch water column
in the shaft from the collar to the
sump, and in consequence no delay
on that score resulted. On account
of it's massive size, being eleven feet
in height, five feet in width and
twelve feet in length, when assem-
bled, it was necessary to take the
61h by Is inch triplex pump apart
and lower it in sections to the 1925
foot station of the shaft, where 1t
was placed on a large concrete foun-
iation and connected with huge
motor.
Although the six-inch centrifugal
pump handles exactly the same
amount of water per minute-50O
gallons-it is not to be compared
with the triplex pump in size and
was lowered down the shaft to the
175O-foot station without being TAX
en- apart. The disparity in the size
of the pumps is accounted for by the
fact that the centrifugal lifts the wa
ter only from the sump of the shaft
to the 1325--ft. station, and the tri-
plex from that point to the surface.
When the pumps were put in op-

Mushett-Wittenberg

The Wittenberg ten
stamp mill is making an excellent
saving of values in the treatment OF
the oXidized ores from the Dexter
White Caps Mining company in the
Manhattan district. On ores averag-
ing ten dollars in gold content, the
final tailings run only from forty to
sixty cents. The stamps and tube
mill. operating one shift day, are
reducing fro mthirty TO thirty-hVe
tons of ore.
The ore treated by the mill is be-
ing yielded by the glory hole opera
tions on the east ore body. The
churn drill hole charges are break
ing down ore for a width OF thirty
fife feet between walls. This ore
is lropped from near the surface 10
large chutes above the first or 100
foot level, from which it is trammed
10 the shaft and hoisted to the sur
face. At the collar of the shaft the
ore is dropped through large grlz-
ely into the receiving bin, by whlch
process the fine material, carrying
the greater values, is separated from
the coarser low grade rock and the
value of the ore, as it goes to the
stamps, is raised one-third.
The mining costs since the mill be-
gan the treatment of the White Caps
ores have averaged about a dollar
per ton. On the second or 2OO-foot
level a raise is being put up in the
west ore body to connect with the
1OO-foot level. The raise has at
tanned a height of seventy feet and
is exposing black sulphide ore that
assays from $50 to $40 per ton. 1t
is the plan of the management OF
the White Caps company to take
over the mill at an early date, after
which time it will handle ore from
that property exclusively. The
value of the oxidiZed ores available
in the White Caps property is esti-

The preliminary estimate of the
Goldfield Consolidated Mines COM
pany of it's production and earnings
for October, just made public by A.
H. Howe, secretary and treasurer,
shows notable increase in the out
put of the various properties, as
compared with that of the preced-
ing month of September. According
to the estimate, the mill treated
2S,660 tons of ore in October, as
against 27,S71 tons in September, an
increase of 7S9 tons. The October
gross extraction amounted to $334,-
900, and the operating expenses
$1S5,OOO, leaving a net realization
of $149,000. as against $120,599 in
September, an increase of $2S,401
Jumbo Extension
AS it's exploration progresses. the
great Velvet orebOdy, which has been
holding the Jumbo Extension mine
firmly in the limelight for about
two months, increases in size and
seemingly it's limits are far from
being determined. The most recent
notable development is the exposure
of a face of thirty feet of $40 ore
by the west drift on the 952-foot in
termediate level from the top of the
sixty-five foot vertical raise from the
east crOsscut off the main cross
cut on the 1017-foot level. Soon
after drifting was inaugurated to the
west on the intermediate level, the
vein began to widen out until now,
at a point about thirty feet from
the top of the vertical raise, it meas
ures thirty feet between walls. AS
it is not advantageous to break
down the entire face of ore, three
separate or branch drifts are be-
ing advanced from the main west
drift, one along each wall and the
third in the center Five feet of ore
assaying SAP a ton is being yielded
by the hanging wall drift, while the
other two are being extended on
faces of rock averaging around 500.
The east drift on the same inter-
mediate level, from the top of the
vertical raise from the 1017-foot
level, continues to yield high grade
rock, the face of seven feet giving
average values of $92 per ton. This
drift is now approximately eighty
feet long, and for it's entire length
has exposed ore of practically the

SHIPS BULLION
EVERY Ten DAYS
MANAGER TOBIN OF PIONEER
con. TELLS OF CONDITIONS
AT MINE

Conditions at the property of the
Pioneer Consolidated Mines COM
pany are in every way satisfactory,
and Manager William J. Tobin, who
has been in Goldfield for brief Wis
it, reports that the mill is operating
on an average of twelve hours daily
and shipments of bullion are sent
out about every ten days. The ten
stamp mill is making satisfactory
recovery by amalgamation and cy-
anidation, the saving at present by
these processes being from sixty to
seventy per cent. The plant will
later be equipped with a department
for treating the shines. In the
meantime they are being impound-
ed, and large tonnage has accumu-
lated.
Development is now in progress
on the 15O-fOot level, where face of
ore eight feet wide averages around
$40 per ton, and on the 250foot lev
el, where the samplings have con-
tinued to show an average of Sc
per ton over a width of fifteen feet.
Until shining plant is provided.
the management will continue to use
some surface ore, which is of such
character as to aid in carrying the
ore from the main workings through
the mill. War conditions, Mr.. To-
bin said. have had no effect upon
his company, as all expenses are paid
from the bullion produced by the
property.
Operating costs of the company
are comparatively low. The mill
bins are but a short distance from
the collar of the shaft and the con
struction of the mill on the steep
hillside, is such as to permit of
gravity flow throughout the mill OPP
Grafton. The ore passes through
rotary crusher and thence to the
stamps and over extra long plates.
Amalgamation is obtained in the bat
teries as well as in and below the
six-foot Huntington MILL the sands
going to the cyanide tanks. The
only elevation in the process is of
the used solution, in its return to
the standardizing tank.
While in Goldfield Mr.. Tobin. who
is president as well as general man
ager of the Pioneer Consolidated
company, was afforded an opportu-
nifty to examine the Jumbo Exten-

TO ERECT SMALL
MILL ON CLAIMS
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS CON-
PANY OBTAINS GOOD RE-
SUITS In WORK

Superintendent Charles H. Schulz
of the Washington-Montez Min
ing company property, nine miles
district, states that the officials of
the corporation in Chicago, ILL.,,
where the main office is located, are
making arrangements for the early
erection of a five-stamp mill on the
ground. A mill expert is now on
his way to the property from Chica-
go and is expected to arrive in
Goldfield in the next few days.
Superintendent Shuiz reports that
the most pleasing results have been
attained since the resumption about
a month ago of the development of
the property, in which a force of
nine men is employed. He stated
that the southeast crosscut recently
started on the 2OO-foot or bottom
level of the shaft has been advanced
more than sixty feet and has inter-
sected a vein eight feet wide which
gives average values of $56SO per
ton in gold and silver. The vein
just intersected is one of the five
which were first revealed in the
sinking of the shaft more than a
year ago. The veins, which lay
very fiat, range in width from six
inches to fourteen feet and in the
shaft give values of from $3.50 to
1886 per ton. 1t is the intention of
Superintendent Schulz to continue
the crosscut on the 200-foot level in
order to intersect all five veins, fol-
lowing which drifting on each will

Although it will be several days
before the Jumbo Extension Min

estimate of it's production and earn

Charles S. Sprague, vice president
and general manager, that the net
profits for the month will total $751;
900. Since Mr.. Sprague made the
statement referred to, there has
been a continuance of the excellent
conditions that made possible the re-

OPERATIONS IN PINE TREE CAMP
ARE YIELDING splendid RESULTS

mated at $4,000, mostly of ten
dollar grade.
Good progress is being made in
the work of grading the site on the
property of the Manhattan Big Pine
Mining company for the new Mush-
-Wittenberg mitl. The mill
equipment, including stamps, a five
by twenty foot tube mill. Dorr
classifier, ETC., is now on it's way to
lonOpah from the manufacturers
and should arrive in Manhattan
within the next week. 1t is calcu-
lated that the mill will be completed
and in operation within the next
thirty days. A crusher is being in
stalled at the collar of the shaft for
the crushing of the ore which will be
handled by the same method used
at the first mill erected by Mushett
and Wittenberg. The two glory
holes on the Big Pine property.
north of the main working shaft.
have been merged into one, which is
800 feet long, forty feet wide at
one end and 100 at the other.
Results being attained by sub
lessees on the Mushett-Wittenbe berg
lease on the southern portion of the
Union Mine claim show that there
is still a great tonnage of high grade
mill ore in the property. Meisener
and Cochran have developed an ex-
cellent shoot of ore in the Moore
vein above the 325-foot level. The
find has been made in virgin terri
tory and assures backs" of at least
$50 feet. The water being pumped
from the sump below the 400-foot
level is being used in the treatment
of Big Pine and White Caps ores at
the Mushett- -Wittenberg mill. When
Mushett and Wittenberg have their
second mill completed they will re-
place the present seventy gallon per
minute pump in their shaft with one
of 200 per minute capacity and sup
ply water to both plants.
