value of $4,000, after deducting
the estimated cost of realization
The report further adds that there
is a good prospect of large addi-
tional tonnage being developed in
dicating a long life for the mine.
The average gross value of the ore
developed is $4.S1 and it is estimated
that it will yield net realization OF
$1.50 ton. 1t is estimated that
practically no profit will be made
during the first six months of the
operation of the property and that
the net realization the first year will

period the net profits are expected to
be about 100000, or slightly under

simultaneously with the issuance of
the final statement of the produc-
ton and earnings of it's local mines
during the month of June, the Gold
field Consolidated Mines company
has issued to stockholders report
for the quarter ending June 30, in
which is embodied full information
as to tho tGrchase of eighty-seven
per cent or $4,000 of the 6SO,OOO
issued shares of the stock of the
Aurora Consolidated Mines company
at approximately $1.29 a share or on
the basis of $SS7,075, for the entire
issue. The price paid was 1925, 200
less than the figure specified in the
original option of purchase obtained
by the Goldfield Consolidated, which
was permitted to lapse.
The final statement for June clear
ly reflects the excellent conditions
prevailing in the local properties of
the Goldfield Consolidated, as does
also the quarterly report. During
June the mill handled total of
1856 tons of ore, which gave net
profits of $147, 10000. The produc-
ton for the entire quarter totalled
S4,357 tons, which yielded a net
realization of $452,9 The
quarterly report states that mas
much as the company's cash re-
sources at the present time do not
admit of dividend disbursement, it
will be omitted.
Relative to the Aurora COnsOli-
dated purchase, the quarterly report
states that at the time the deal was
closed on June 25 with the Jesse
Knight interests of Utah, an initial
payment of $3SS,S0O, was made and
that an additional 100000 was paid
on July 25. The third and fourth
installments on the purchase price,
each amounting to 100000, and the
final installment of $72,211, will be
made on August 25, September 25
and October 25, respectively, with in
terest at six per cent per annum from
June 25. At the time of the conclu-
sion of the final examination of the
Aurora Consolidated property by the
Goldfield Consolidated engineers on
June 12, the value of the ore in the
