vERNAL TO MAKE
SHIPMENT SOON
SMALL CAVE Is FOUND IN VEIN
NEAR THE 2OO-FOOT
LEVEL

Highly pleasing results continue
to attend work in the bottom of the
s5-foot winze below the south drift
on the vein on the 100-foot level Of
the property of the Vernal Mining
company in the Diamondfield section
of the Goldfield district, according
to General Superintendent Walter s.
Norris. A shipment of ore, estimat-
ed to average better than 5000 per
ton and yielded by the work in the
winze and short drift south there
from, will be made from the proper
ty in the near future.
At present operations in the winze
are being largely confined to the ex-
traction of about foot and half
of $50 ore in the hanging wall side
of the vein, which has proven to be
two feet wide, twelve feet long and
ten feet depth. The walls of the
cave show quartz literally sprinkled
with free gold. This rock is being
extracted and added to the pile of
ore that will be shipped soon. AS
greater depth is gained the ore body
seems to be making from the hang
ing to the footwall Of the vein, there
fore the south drift on the 200-foot
level is being turned in it's course to
get under the rich ore exposed in the
winZe above.

GOLD CIRCLE PROPERTY Is UN-
DER BOND AND Is BEING
EXAMINED

Within the next ten days the Elko
Prince mine may become one of the
assets of the Goldfield Consolidated
Mines company" says the Reno Ca
zette.
This property" said Albert Burch,
general manager of the Consolidated,
has been heralded as being under
bond to an English corporation, but.
in reality, it is the Goldfield Consoli-
dated that holds the option.
Examination of the property is in
progress and within about ten days
it will be announced whether or not
it is to be taken over and become an
asset of the Consolidated. Although
the Elko Prince has not been a pro-
ducer to any extent, 1t is very extern
sively developed, and shows an en-
couraging amount of ore"
Mr.. Burch reports that the Aurora
Consolidated mill, recently taken
over by the Goldfield Consolidated, is
dropping fifteen stamps and a test is
being made of the cyanide equip
ment. If it proves satisfactory, the
whole mill will be in operation in
thirty days, but if changes have to
be made in the tailings plant, Il prob
ably will be four months befor> the
entire establishment is in full swing.

JUMbO-EX HEAD
ASSAYS ARE HIGH
SHOW VALUE OF ORE no RANGE
FROM $15 10 $45 A
TON

An idea of the highly gratifying
conditions prevailing in the Jumbo
Extension mine is afforded by the
fact that assays of "head" samples of
the ore taken at the mill of the Gold
field Consolidated Mines company, to
which practically the entire output
is now being shipped, are ranging
from SIS to $45 a ton. Such is the
statement of General Manager j. X.
Turner of the Jumbo Extension, who
further states that the ore resources
of the property continue to improve
as the extensive exploratory work in
progress goes forward.
The Jumbo Extension mas for more
than a month past been shipping an
average of one hundred tons of ore
daily over the shipments sent to the
mines leased mill at Bonnie Claire
prior to the present arrangement.
When shipments to the Consolidated
plant were first begun, more than two
months ago, there was but little i'm
prOvement in the percentage of saw
ing over that made previously at the
Bonnie Clare lease mill, which aver
age around seventy-five per cent BY
the installation of second Bunker
Hill screen, however, the extraction
has been steadily improved, with the
result that the average saving of val
ues at present runs around eighty
five per cent. Occasionally, it runs
as high as ninety-one per cent. 1t
has been found that the ten stamp
and eleven concentrating table sec
tion of the Consolidated mill can
treat the higher grade equally as
we'll, if not better. than it does the
milling grade ore from the Jumbo
Extension, in consequence of which

FLORENCE IS IN
GOOD CONDITION
"FTLL" BEING DRAWN FROM
OLD STOPE ON 25O-FOOT
LEVEL

Although there were no develop
last week, there was, however,
continuance of satisfactory condi-
tions at the Florence mine. No ship
ments were made, but large ton
mage of ore has been broken down,
and during the remainder of the
month they will probably be of such
volume as to bring the total output
up to that of last month, which
amounted to about 750 tons.
The stope above the north drift on
the fifty-foot level on the ore body
disclosed several months ago by a
branch raise from the main raise
above the 150-foOt north drift, in
the immediate vicinity of the shaft.
continues to yield an excellent tom
mage of ore. The face, more than
$50 feet north of the shaft, is yield
ing about two and a half feet of ore
that averages between $15 and $40
a ton.
On the 2OO-foot level stopping con-
tinues north of the main working
shaft on the main Florence vein.
The north face of the stope is eX-
posing six feet Of $40 ore and about
four feet of SIS ore is being ex-
tracted from the south face. Excel
lent progress is being made in the
work of pulling "fill" from an old
footwall stope above the north main
drift from the west crosscut on the
250-fOot level. AS soon as finished
raising from the stope will begin on
a hanging wall streak Of three to
four feet Of $40 ore that was left
standing, early operations at that
particular point in the mine being
confined to the footwall branch Of
the vein. which yielded exceptionally
rich rock.
From a drift in the old Baby Flor
ence lease territory on the 250-fOot
level, raising is in progress on a
small streak of ore that assays from
$40 to $500 a ton. The raise above
the main north drift on the 530-foot
level is being advanced on three feet
of low grade quartz in the old
Wheeler lease ore body. The raise
is now up about hundred feet,
leaving forty more feet to drive be-
fore connection is made with the
forty-foot winze below the 280-foot
level of the old Wheeler lease, which.
in the early days of the camp, pro-
duced notable tonnage of excellent
ore.

LATERAL OPERATIONS STARTED
ON THE 7OO-FOOT
LEVEL

Impressed with the results OBJ
tanned in the operations on the 80
foot level of the S25-foot shaft, lat
the 70O-foot level of the property
of the Goldfield Orc Mining COM
pany by General Manager Thomas F..
Manning. A crosscut west has been
started on the new level to inter-
cept the hanging wall of the big
vein.
Although Manager Manning has not
made public any details as to the
assay values being obtained, he ex-
presses himself as much pleased with
conditions prevailing at the proper
ty, the operation of which has recent
ly been greatly facilitated by the in
stallation of a cage in the shaft in
the place of bucket, which in the
past has been used in the develop
ment work. Recent disclosures have
made it clear that the north and
south drifts on the $40 level have
not completely intersected the big
vein at right angles, as was at first
supposed. AT point ABOUT lOO
feet from the shaft, the north drift
has revealed the hanging wall, while
at a point about eighty feet from the
shaft the south drift has exposed the
footwall of alaskite, the original floor
of the district.
A raise put up twenty feet IN the
north drift. at a point 55 feet from
the shaft, has revealed the hanging
wall The developments of the last
week have shown the vein to have a
more decided trend northwest to
southeast than was first supposed,
and in consequence the south drift
has been changed into an east cross
cut and is being advanced from the
footwall to the hanging wall, with
highly pleasing results.

TO MAKE VISIT
OF INSPECTION
PRESIDENT OF SILVER PICK
CONS. Is COMING TO
GOLDFIELD

Herman Zadig of San Francisco,
president of the Silver Pick Con-
solidated Mining company, will ar
rive in Goldfield today for visit of
several days. The primary purpose
of his visit will be to make a per-
sonal inspection OF conditions pre-
vailing in the Silver Pick property,
and, incidentally, tn attend to local
matters pertaining to his present
the Lou Dillon Goldfieid Mining COM
pany and the Silver Pick Extension
Mining company, originally prOmOt-
ed by the defunct l.. M. Sullivan
Trust company, with a view to the
recovery of the ground formerly
held by the two companies and the
resumption of their development.
Mr.. Zadig is president of both cor
porations, and according to re-
ports, is meeting with success in his
efforts in the direction named.
Exploration work on the 500-foot
level of the Silver Pick Consolidated
property continues to be prosecuted
Oh du cAlcHSlNS SCdic uAuCI tuC ou-
pervision of General Superintendent
Walter S. Norris. Work is in prog
ress in no fewer than half a dozen
points in the mammoth body of
quartz that was first revealed by the
shaft at the 396-foot point. In the
south drift from the east crosscut
along the hanging wall of the vein,
a winze was started Thursday on the
promising shoot of ore disclosed
about six weeks ago about a hundred
feet from the north line of the Com
bination mine of the Goldfield Con-
solidated Mines company. The
winze is going down on two and a
half feet of ore that assays from $40
to $50 a ton.
The face of the north drift along
the hanging wall of the vein toward
the Red Top mine OF the Goldf1eld
Consolidated company is exposing
three feet of quartz that assays from
IS to 81 per ton. The showing in
cludes a fourteen-inch streak of $14
ore. The raise above the south drift
from the east crosscut is up 78 feet
and is exposing two feet of 81 to IS
quartz. A total of 352 feet of de-
velopment work was accomplished
last month, according to Superintend-
ent Norris.

Florence GOldfield
Developments during the last week
at the Florence Goldfield mine were
of the usual routine character. How
ever, the property continues to give
an excellent account of itself and it is
expected that the output this month
will equal that of June, which

The installation of it's mechanical
equimpemtnt having been complet.
ed about three weeks ago and prelim-
mary work in the shape of retimber-
ing old drifts and cathing up bad
ground in the slopes near the old
incline shaft having since been fin
ished, operations on company ac-
count on the property of the Dexter
White Caps Mining company in the
Manhattan district have been insti-
tuted on an extensive scale. This
preliminary work was done to make
accessible large tonnage of high
milling grade ore left in the stope
on the shaft ore shoot by the old
lessees who largely confined their
operations to the extraction OF
streaks of shipping ore. The ore
left in the stope averages from SIS
to $24 ton.
The company is using a force of
sixteen miners, and four machine
drills in the present development
work, which is making excellent
headway. The west drift on the
200-foot level is being advanced on
a full face of ore which yields aver
age assays of $35 ton. Similar as
says have been obtained for a dis
tance Of more than thirty feet in the
advancement of the drift since the
resumption of work, and there is
every reason to believe that the ore
body will prove as large as that
known as the east ore shoot on the
same level, with double its grade in
average gold content. The ore body
has backs of 130 feet on the dip of
the vein between the 20 0and 100
foot levels. On the upper level the
old lessees extracted about 500 tons

TO SINK WINE
IN THE KEWANAS
EAST CROSSCUT FROM LAGUNA
MINE SHAFT is COM
PLETED

After several months of prelimi-
nary work, operations incident to the
actual exploration of the property of
the Reorganized Kewanas Mining
company, adjoining on the east the
Laguna mine of the Goldfield Con-
solidated Mines company, will soon
be under way. Raising on the TOO
foot level of the Kewanas Is now
in progress to provide space for
hoist with which to sink a deep
winze.
The Kewanas work is being prose-
cuted through the east crOsscut on
the 7O0-fOOt level of the Laguna
mine. The work preliminary to pres
ent operations consisted of the ex-
tension of the crosscut a distance of
400 feet, the face being $50 feet
from the Laguna side line In ths
Kewanas ground. This work was re-
Gently completed and work at pres
ent is being confined to the cham
bering out a space above the face of
the crosscut for the accommodation
Of twenty h. p. electric hoist. Man
ager A. I. Darcy states that the
winze will be sunk from $50 to 200
feet to catch the vein between the
contact of latte and shale.

REVIEW OF mining OPERATIONS in G0LDFIELD District

With it's local operations proceed
ing along normal, routine lines,
great interest is being manifested in
the activity of the Goldfield Consoli-
dated Mines company at its newly ac-
quired property, known as the Aurora
Consolidated mine. at Aurora, Min
eral county where fifteen of the
forty stamps of the mill were recent
ly placed in commission. In addi-
ton to acquiring eighty-seven per
cent of the issued stock of the Aurora
Consolidated, the Goldfeld ConsOli-
dated has lately obtained an option
of purchase on the ElkO Prince mine
in Gold Circle district of ElkO cOun-
ty and an examination is now being
made by General Manager Albert
Burch of the Goldfield Consolidated.
Although the Elko Prince has not yet
esta blished itself as a great producer,
it's development has been in progress
for several years and large tonnage
of ore is blocked out. According to
Manager Burch, test of the mill and
cyanide plant at the Aurora ConsOli-
dated is at present being made. If
it proves satisfactory, the entire plant
will be placed in commission within
the next thirty days but if changes
are found necessary it will probably
be several months before operations
are in full swing.
Jumbo Extension
With a large majority Of the out
standing stock represented, the ad-
journed annual meeting of the Jumbo
Extension Mining company, operating
in this district, was held Thursday in
Phoenix Arizona, under the laws of
which state the corporation was or
ganized. The old board of directors
was reelected to serve for the en-
suing year as follows: H. Schwaikert
and Robert Byars of New York and
Charles S. Sprague, j. X. Turner and
Ben Gill of Goldfield. Upon the re-
turn of Mr.. Sprague to Goldfield,
which will probably be in the next
few days, the directors will hold
a meeting and elect officers.
That conditions of a highly pleas
ing character prevail underground at
the Jumbo Extension is reflected by
the fact that assay returns of head
samples of the ore being treated by a
ten-stamp and eleven concentrating
table section of the Goldfield Consoli-
dated Mines company ranged during
the last week from SIS to $45 per
ton. Under the present milling ar
rangement, which superseded that OF
sending the output of the mine to the
Jumbo Extensions leased mill at
Bonnie Glare, highly pleasing in
crease in the saving of values is be-
ing made, averaging around eighty
five per cent, as against approximate
ly seventy-five per cent at the Bonnie
Clare plant. Some days the extrac-
tion, according to General Manager
]. X. Turner. runs as high as ninety
one per cent. So favorably impress
ed is the management of the Jumbo
Extension with the extraction being
made that practically the entire out
