BUCKSK|N LEDGE
OPENED AGAIN
BY THE NATIONAL
NATIONAL MINES COMPANY HAS
RICH ORE IN ITS LOWEST
WORKINGS.

NATIONAL, New, June 1.-THE
National Mines company has struck
large body of rich gold and silver
ore in its lower workings known as
Nos. and Z. No. shows a great
increase in both size and values over
No. 8. This company has just sent
out a large amount OF bullion which
was taken out during the past month.
r. G. Harrison, who is in charge of
the National mines, is preparing TO
do great deal of development work
during the summer. Several mining
men who have noticed the change
and Improvement shown with depth
have been making inquiries for
leases. 1t is reported that within a
short time this company will install
large cyanide plant and work all
of the upper dumps which were al
ready sampled and shown to be very
rich. There is also large quantities
OF ore in the upper workings which
will be worked during the coming
year, in addition to what the COM
pany will take out from the lower
workings.
The Charleston National Mining
company is making great Roadway ia
the large White Rock tunnel. This
company has cut the vein which it
had already opened up in its upper
workings, and a raise is now being
run to tap the bottom of the incline.
This will give the company plenty of
good air. The vein shows some very
good ore and ii is the intention of
the company to sink on the vein as
soon as the connection is made above
The Heines- Baldwin lease has put
on an extra shift in their workings
and within a short time they will put
on more men aud work both through
the White Rock tunnel and the large
tunnel site tunnel, which cuts the
same vein about $50 feet higher up.
This lease has taken out some very
rich ore from their lower workings.
The Hatch lease, which is located
upon the Buckskin National Gold
Mining company's property, has cut
the rich Buckskin vein about thirty
feet from the surface. Several sam
pies of rich high-grade ore were
brought over from the workings and
it is identical with that of the Buck
skin National ore from their work
ings about 1000 feet to the south of
the lease. This opens up the high
grade vein for over 1000 feet. Mr.
Hatch is very much pleased with the
showing in his lease.
C. Wiseman has an interest in some
very select property, which is locat-
ed to the south of the Buckskin Ma
tional Gold Mining company's prop
erty, was over his workings during
the early part of the week with some
fine-looking quartz. 1t resembles the
high-grade quartz and it is believed
that with little depth the extension
Of the Buckskin vein will be opened
up. The names of the different lodes
in Mr. Wiseman's group are: the
Tampico, Omar and Mahogany.
Andy Kinneberg, of Buckskin, was
a visitor to National during Monday
Mr.. Kinneberg has some fine property
located on the east slope of Buck
skin mountain, and he is now having
the same surveyed and mapped
Two new leases have been let ON
the Buckskin Mary property on Buck
skin mountain. This property is To-
Gated to the north of any adjoining
the Buckskin National Gold Mining
company's property. from which they
are now taking out the high-grade
ores.
Good Roadway is being made on
the Staunton-Dunn, the Prout and the
Berry leases, all OF which are To-
Gated on the Buckskin National
These leases are all sinking and will
cut the Bell vein within short dis
lance.
