TOnOpah Tx.
The TOnOpah Extension Mining
company established new records in
the month of April by the total ship
ments of 81 bars of bullion, weigh,
ing 1O2,28S ounces, equivalent to 3
tons LOIS pounds of the estimated
value of $76,70O from the milling
of 4,72O tons of ore, showing re-
covered values of $15.25 a ton.
The above figures represented %
days operation of the mill and es-
tablished new records for tonnage of
ore milled, gross output of bullion
and the highest average grade of ore
eve treated for one continuous
month.
\ This splendid condiuon is due to
: the very high average grade ore now
being extracted from the develop
ment of the Murray vein through the
new main working shaft from which
from SO to 70 tons are sent to the
mill daily, while the old mine is also
producing a better average grade of
ore than for more than a yea past.
During April the mill was treating
as high as ITO tons daily, but on ac-
count of the mill heads assaying
from $21 to $26 a ton, it has been
necessary to reduce this tonnage to
conform with the tube capacity and
thus accomplish the necessary
amount of fine grinding to recover
the values.
The new tube mill arrived Thurs
day and will be at once set in posi-
ton, the new DOrr classifier being
now ready to operate and with this
additional and a new stump tank and
addition Trent agitators now being
set up, the plant will treat 200 IONS
of ore daily before the end OIL this
month.
Later this year it is intended to
add an additional 10 stamps and an
other tube mill to bring the total ca
pacity up to 500 tons a day.
