AMALGAMATED PIOCHE
SHAFT SUMP COMPLETE
MANAGEMENT WILL NOW BEGIN
CROSS-CUTTING TO YUBA
Dixie

The stump at No. 1 shaft of the
Amalgamated Phoebe below the 1900
has been finished and next in order
will be the task of prosecuting to
the Yuba dyke and the Black Ledge
orebodies, says the Phoebe Record.
Contrary to expectations, a highly
m~ineralized material was encounter
ed in the stump, but how much i'm
portance can be attached to it will
not be known until the assayer re-
turns the samples sent him.
1t will be OF interest to stock
holders of the Amalgamated company
to know that the first official try-out
of the pumps recently installed was
made this week in raising the water
to the surface and Superintendent
Van Wagenen reports that everything
worked out satisfactorily. The vol
ume of water IN the shaft has not
reached the stage, however, that the
services of the pumps are required
but in contemplation that a greater
flow will he encountered as cross
cutting progresses, the pumps were
placed in re adiness to meet any emer-
gency.
Work at the Amalgamated is pro-
crossing at a very satisfactory rate
all along the line and it will not be
many months until the mine will be
in shape for regular production.

ACCIDENTS ARE
LESS FREQUENT
MISHAPS AMONG NEVADA CON-,
EMPLOYEES GREATLY
REDUCED

During the year 1913 the average
number of disabling accidents to m
ployes of the Nevada Con.-Steptoe
companies at mines, mill and smelter
was 50 per month, counting every ac-
cident resulting in personal injuries
that caused a loss of one days time
or more In February this year, with
about the same number of men en-
ployed under practically the same
conditions as prevailed during last
year, there were only Is disabling
accidents. This is a reduction of
A per cent.
The monthly bulletin for February
of the safety first department of the
companies was issued at McGill this
week and shows the number of acct
dents which occurred in February to
employees engaged in various occupa-
tons. From the bulletin the follow
ing facts are cleaned:
AT Copper Flat there were eight &C
cidents disabling the injured en-
ployes from three days to m month.
iC dNtluCht uloobilhS ohS Shilioy .,
for a month. however, was one that
might happen anywhere-contusion
of cornea caused by dirt in an eye.
The seven other accidents ~entailed
a total loss of "A days. Eleven other
employees were slightly injured but
not disabled.
At the Veteran underground mine
seven employees were injured but on
~ four of them disabled for a total
of 10 days. one man being disabled
for ten days. He was piling timbers
at the collar of the shaft when the
foreman warned him not to pile them
too high. He disregarded the orders
made the pile top-heavy. 1t fell Over
on him. pinned him against the side
of the shaft and crushed his right
knee.
At the concentratOr four men were
disabled for a total of 81 days while
twelve others were slightly injured
but not disabled.
At the smelter one man was dis
abled for ten days and one for four
days. Ten others were classed as in.
jured but not disabled. The man
classed as disabled for ten days had
been slightly burned while working
in the foundry in January. He dressed
the burn himself and it became in
fected so that in February he had to
apply for medical treatment at tn.
emergency hospital.
Injuries, in the eyes of the safety
department, consist of ever the small
est happenings that cause little or nc
pain or personal inconvenience to the
employee.

CONSIDERS LUN|NG
DISTRICT A conner
FROM CAMP STEADILY
n INCREASING

That the copper mining camp just
outside the own of Luning is one of
the Corners of the state. that it is
steadily growing, and that the ship
ments of ore to the smelter are daily
becoming larger are facts that were
CLEANED by the Carson City Appeal
from Harry Lind. who was i'm Carson
City this week from that place.
Mr.. Lind is operating the proper
ties of the New York Copper Mining
company at Luning and he speaks
f1atteringly of the prospects of mis-
company. On what is known as the
Spanish woman's property. c. A.
James has SO men at work getting
the orebodies in shape for continuous
shipments, he having contracted with
the Mason Valley Smelling company,
to furnish them with a 55-ton car
load every day.
From the Anderson property,
which is under lease and option to
the Mason Valley Smelling company,
10000 tons of ore have been extract
ed and shipped. The royalties thus
far received from the shipments have
met the payments on the property
as required by the option.
On the Champion property a vast
amount of copper ore has been de-
veloped and blocked out, but work
has been discontinued by the own
ers till a better price can be Sc
cured for the yellow metal.
A. G.. James and associates. who
have recently taken over the extern
sive holdings of Fermina Sarrais,
neal Luning. are developing the prop
erty on a large scale.
On the Emma Oalli. Burnt Whis-
ker and Morning Glory mines recent
development work has exposed large
bodies of shipping ore, together with
a considerable tonnage that will be
worked by the new teaching process
now being perfected by the Wagner
Azurite company.

MINERAL RESOURCES OF
SOUTHWESTERN OREGON

Southwestern Oregon has long been
known for it's widespread and varied
| mineral resources, among which gold,
| silver, copper, platinum and coal are
the most important. They have been
the subject of investigation for a
number of years by j.. S. Diller of the
United States geological survey, and
the results have just been published
in Bulletin SAG.
The gold rush of 40 landed many a
prospector in southwestern Oregon.
Placers were opened and placer min
ing has ever since continued to be a
thriving branch of mineral industry.
The gold produced in southwestern
Oregon before 1881 can not be very
closely estimated, but it was many
millions of dollars, while from 1881
to 1912 inclusive the production of
gold has been $11,257,772. During
the 10 years 1903 to 1912 inclusive
the placer mines produced ~ ,715
and the lode mines $1,523,22G. Be
sides the gold and a considerable
amount of copper the production of
silver during the same period was
valued at $63,3S5, of platinum $15,-
293, and of coal So, G02, 1872.
The gold of the bedrock series i'll
the Klamath mountains, which in
cIude the Siskiyou and Salmon noun
tains, was deposited in veins and
pockets in connection with the up
heaval of the mountains at the close
of the Jurassic geologic period. Ever
since then the disintegration and
erosion of these rocks has furnished
the gold for the auriferous gravels.
The encircling beaches of the
ancient "Siskiyou Island" which was
surrounded by the early Cretaceous
set, contain the oldest auriferous
gravels, now mined at the Forty-nine
and other mines, from Arbuckle in
California to Waldo in Oregon. The
ocean waves, aided by the land
streams, washed away the mountains
and by long, deep ~weathering of the
gold-veined rocks freed the gold for
concentration by stream action into a
series of a%uriferous gravels from Gold
Basin, 1000 feet above the sea, and
the much later and lower "old chan
nels" to those of the present stream
bars.
Bulletin SAG is replete with illus
trations and maps showing the loca-
ton of all the principal mines and
prospects in southwestern Oregon. 1t
