Belmont
Clyde A. Heller, president of the
Tonopah Belmont Development COM
pany, arrived in Tonopah this week
from a trip of inspection to the Surf
Inlet mine on Princess Royal Island,
B. c., now under option to the COM
pany, having been accompanied by
Frederick Bradshaw, general super
intendent of the company, who made
his first examination of the property.
In conversation with a representa-
tive of the Topopah Miner, Mr.. Hell
lcI Sdlu. L I'LL ALlAlCuOCly IAAPlSoo
ed with the great potentialities of
the Surf Inlet property. In the first
place mining conditions are ideal.
the claims being covered with an m
mense growth of forest timber suit
able for all purposes, and close to
the mill site there is a splendid fall
of water where sufficient electrical
power can be developed to operate a
5OO-stamp mill, in addition to these
being many other water falls in the
immediate vicinity. Another great
advantage is that the property can
be developed to a depth of over 1000
feet by tunnels, thus eliminating all
costs for hosting and with the other
advantages making it an ideal mining
property capable of earning very
large dividends even on comparative
ly low grade ore.
I'VE have nine claims under OPP
ton, and under the Canadian laws
these measure 1900 feet by 1900
feet, and eight of these are located
on the course of the vein, thus CIV
ing a length of about $4,000 feet on
the orebody.
THE vein is from 10 to SO feet
wide, and prior to the Belmont COM
pany obtaining the option some very
rich ore was shipped to the Tacoma
smelter, but disregarding this, it
shows very good payable milling val
ues in gold fer the entire distance
exposed in the underground work
ings."
