CHANGE OCCURS IN
THE SHAFT OF ORC
BORE Is PASSING INTO LATTE
AT 8OO-FOOT
POINT.

Although the expected discovery
of ore has not yet been made, devel-
opments at the property of the Gold
field Orc Mining company continue to
indicate that the hopes of the man
agement are likely to be fulfilled in
the near future. Conditions prevail
ing leave no doubt as to the cor
rectness of the theory that the Orc
property is traversed by the Colum-
bia Mountain fault, along which
great bodies of ore have been ex-
posed at Gepth in the properties of
i:o neighbCIs.
AZ a dep.h of 500 feet, the Orc
shaft is now apparently passing into
the latte formation from a brecci-
ated zone of broken and mixed up
quartz, andesite and tale, which
plainly shows fault movement. The
brecciated zone proved to be 60 feet
in thickness and the passing of the
shaft from it to the latte is a high
ly encouraging condition. Manager

Although devoid of sensational fea-
lures, operations throughout the
GoldI1e}u disifis Z during tire a-afase
week have been attended by highly
encouraging results and the condi-
tiOns prevailing indicate that the APP
preaching summer season will be
marked by greater activity than for
many years past. A number of com
panes which have permitted their
properties to lie idle for several
years are preparing to resume opera
tions, in consequence of new develop
ments, particularly at depth, in va
rious sections of the district, with
the result that the future of the
camp is more promising than at any
time since the ''boom days"
Atlanta Mines
Notwithstanding the fact that it is
more than a month since it came to
the front with an excellent discovery
of ore at depth, the property of the
Atlanta Mines company continues to
hold a stellar position in point of in
in this district. The work of eX-
ploring the orebOdy revealed is MAX
ing excellent headway, under the SUI
pervison of General Manager X. NJ.
Simpson and there is every reason to
believe that the Atlanta will develop
into a great mine. The management
has made public no additional infor-
nation as to the conditions prevail
ing beyond that contained in the
statement issued by Secretary A. ii.
Howe, following the annual meeting
of the stockholders about ten day.,

MANHATTAN PLACER and Quartz
OPERATIONS PROVE PROFITABLE

According to advices !:oln the
Manhattan district, companies and
individuals operating quartz and
placer properties there continue to
meet with gratifying results. The
south drift on the 200-foot level of
the Manhattan Consolidated Mining
company is being advanced on four
feet of ore that assays $32.75 per ton.
Drifts have been started at two other
points on the orebOdy and large
tonnage of excellent rock is being
blocked out. The flow of water in
the mine has decreased considerably
recently, due to the disappearance of
the snow from the surrounding hills.
To obviate the use of a sinker in the
shaft during the continuation of
lateral work, a stationary pump has
been installed at the station on the
20O-foot level.
An excellent tonnage OF ore is be-
ing developed by the owners of the
Bath lease on Union No. 2 claim of
the Litigation Hill Merger Mining
company Approximately 100 tons of
excellent ore has recently been
placed on the dumps and about rs
tons of the same character of rock
is ready to be hoisted to the surface.
The lessees are pumping about 50,-

JUMBO EX. MINE
OUTPUT HEAVY
PROPERTY SPLENDIDLY MAIN
TAINS IT'S IMPROVED PHYS
ICAL CONDITION.

Although late developments have
been of a routine character. the Jum-
bo Extension mine is splendidy main
tanning its improved physical condi-
ton and it's output this month will
probably equal that of .Iarch when
it made the best production for sew
eral years. The exploration OF the
newly acquired Velvet claim at depte
continues to be attended by the most
pleasing results and the outlook of
the property is exceedingly promis-
ing.
The northeast drift into the Velvet
claim from the 921-foot level of the
Poleverda workings now measures
more than so feet in length and its
face is exposing seven feet of SAL
orc. The drift east from the north
east crosscut from the top of a 90
foot raise above the 921-foot level of
the Poleverda workings is now more
than so feet into the Velvet claim,
with three feet of SIS ore in the
face. This drift is 104 feet above the
northeast drift into the Velvet claim
on the SZl-lObI leNel proper oh lhN
dip of the vein, which is 80 degrees
to the southeast from the horizontal.
The stope in the Poleverda claim
above the 921-foot level is assuming
mammoth proportions and is yield
ing large tonnage of ore of an eX-
cellent grade. new raise has been
put up from the level below to an
isolated portion of the stope to per-
nit of the more economical handling
of ore being extracted. On account
of bad air work is advancing slowly
in the raise from the end of the east
crOsscut from the main south cross
cut on the 1.017-fOOt level to get
under that portion of the pig orebody
that dips beneath the 921-foot level
workings near the line of the Velvet
claim The raise is now up more
than Is feet and is expected to reach
It's objective point within the next
ten feet. The work of erecting two
125-tOn ore bins alongside the rail
road spur on the property is progress
ing rapidly and they will be ready
for use within the next few days.

DRIFTING ON THE
SILVER PICK VEIN
GOOD HEADWAY BEING MADE IN
WORK ON 5OO-FOOT
LEVEL.

Great headway is being made in
the exploration on the bottom or
500-fOOt level of the property of the
Silver Pick Consolidated Mining
company of the mammoth quartz vein
originally revealed at the 396-fOot
point in the shaft. Notwithstanding
the fact that all development work
since the disclosure of the vein in
the shaft at the point named has
been prosecuted within it's limits,
only one wall, the footwall. has been
revealed.
The fOotwall of the vein was ex-
posed about ten days ago by west
crosscut on the 500-foot level sew
enty feet from the shaft. Since that
time drifting north along the foot
wall has been in progress. This drift
now measures more than 50 feet in
length and is exposing rock that av-
erages around SO a ton. Although
the east crosscut on the same level
is now sc feet in length. it has not
yet disclosed the hanging wall of the
vein. At point AS feet from the shaft
in this crOsscut, drift south has
been started on ore assaying around
81 ton.

c. 0. D. STRIKE
STILL IMPROVING
NEW OREBODY ON 16O-FOOT
LEVEL NOW EIGHT FEET
WIDE

The most gratifying results con-
tinue to attend the exploration of
the new orebody revealed about two
weeks ago by the south crosscut from
the east drift on the 160-foot inter-
mediate level of the Victor shaft on
the property of the c. o. ID. Consoli-
dated Mining company. which is be-
ing operated under a long term lease
by the Nevada Cooperative Mining
company.
At the point at which it was first
revealed the vein measured three
feet in width but as drifting west
upon it has advanced the orebOdy
has shown materially improvement,
especially in it's size. The vein now
measures eight feet and is averaging
$25 a ton across it's entire width.
A raise has been started and the vein
is now yielding a large tonnage of
ore. Carload shipments are being
made every other day from the prop
erty, the ore going to the Jumbo Ex-
tension Reduction company mill at

900 gallons of water daily, which is
being utilized in the placer opera
tions on the northern slope of Litiga-
tion hill.
Operations in the Reid-Wann lease
on April Fooi all of the Seyler-
Humphrey Mining company are
yielding good results. Considerable
ore is being extracted in drifting
west from the 70-fOot crosscut tunnel
along the contact of the lime and
shale. the rock averaging SIS a ton.
To intercept extensions of the ore
bodies opened up on the surface in
the early history of the district,
prospecting operations have been in
augurated on the Cornucopia claim
of the property recently bonded by
Wall and Blaker to Harry Thompson
of San Francisco and associates. A
force of five miners is employed in
the work.
A good showing is being made by
the owners of the COle-Walters placer
lease on Dexter No. IA claim of the
Manhattan Dexter Union Mines COM
pany, on the northern slope of Big
Four hill. Although only a small
yardage is handled daily, the dirt is
yielding excellent values.

GOLD MOUNTAIN COMPANY
soon TO RESUME WORK

According to an official announce
ment, operations will be resumed
May 1 upon the property of the Re
organized Butte GOldfield Mining
company in the Gold Mountain dis
trict, near Bonnie Glare. 1t is the
intention of the management to re-
sumo sinking in the 4O-fOOt shaft
near the portal of the 6OO-fOot tun-
mel, with a depth of 100 feet as the
objective point. From the bottom OF
the shaft, when completed to the 100
foot point, a drift will be advanced
eastward to connect with the bottom
of the 100-fOot winze sunk in the
tunnel referred to at point 1926 feet
from it's portal. In the winze there
is exposed from one and half to
four feet of ore that averages $33
ton.
The Goldfield news and weekly tribune. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1911-1947, 1914-04-18

the management confidently expects
the property to prove one of the great
mines the Goldfield district, pars
discovery by reason of the great
depth-1750 feet-at which it was
made.
GOIdield Consolidated
The mines of the Goldfield Consoli
dated Mines company produced their
usual output of ore during the last
week. Developments in the various
properties were of routine but
eminently satisfactory character. 1t
is probable that the company will is
sue within the next week or ten days
it's final statement of it's operations
and earnings for the month of
March. The preliminary estimates
of the March production. issued by
A. H. Howe, secretary and treasurer
about a week ago, makes it evident
that the various mines are splendidly
maintaining themselves.
Jumbo Extension
Developments of routine yet
highly satisfactory nature were the
rule during the last week at the
Jumbo Extension mine, the output of
ore being normal. The results being
obtaining in the exploration of the
Velvet claim, recently acquired from
the GOldfield Merger Mines company,
are fully up to the expectations of
the management of the Jumbo Ex-
tension company. The northeast
drift into the Velvet claim from the
921loot level workings of the jun
bo Extension territory proper is now
more than 100 feet in length and is
revealing seven feet of ore that assays
$41 ton. The east drift into the

Velvet claim, 104 feet above the
northeast drift referred to on the dip
of the vein, is exposing three feet OF
SIS ore. The big stope in the Pole
verda claim above the 921 foot level
is assuming gigantic proportions and
is yielding a large tonnage OF excel
lent ore The two 125-ton ore bins,
being erected alongside the spur
track on the property, will be com
pleted and ready for use within the
next week or ten days.
ReOrganizet Newanas
An event of more than ordinary
importance during the week was the
Inauguration of operations pre-
liminary to the development at depth
of the property of the Reorganized
Kewanas Mining company. The pre-
liminary work consists of the repair
ing of the station at the 7OO-foot
level of the Laguna shaft of the Gold
field Consolidated Mines company
through which the future develop
ment of the Kewanas will be prose
cuted. After the station has been
put in proper shape, the long cross
cut on that level toward the KeWanas
will be cleaned out and repaired. 1t
will be necessary to advance the
crosscut a distance of about $50 feet
from it's present face to get into the
Kewanas territory. Secretary A. H.
Howe has announced that the Ke-
wanas board of directors has extend
ed until May 16 the time for stock
holders of the old company, the Gold
field Kewanas Mining company, to
avail themselves of the privilege of
exchanging their old certificates for
those of it's successor upon the pay

FUTURE OF STATE
IS PROMISING
ORE PURCHASING COMPANY OF.
FICIAL TELLS OF INCREASED
ACTIVITY.

The activity in the mining industry
of the state of Nevada has increased
no less than 100 per cent in the last
twelve months. according to f. M.
Manson, general manager Of the
Western Ore Purchasing company
who arrived in Goldfieid this morn
ing from his headquarters in Reno
for business visit of several days.
Mr.. Manson bases his assertion upon
the purchase of ore by his company,
which is an indisputable index not
only to the activity but the results
being obtained by companies and in,
dividual operators throughout the
state.
The Goldfield district, according to
Mr.. Manson, holds first position in
the improved showing throughout
the state He states that his COM
pany is now buying twice as much
ore locally as it was year ago and
he is confident that the gratifying
condition will continue. Mr.. Manson
expressed himself as greatly pleased
with the developments in the terri
tory of the Atlanta Mines company at
depth and believes that it will prove
great inspiration to many OF the
other companies of the district to
prosecute deep operations.

FLORENCE KEEPS
ITS PRODUCTION
TWELVE CARLOADS OF ORR
SHIPPED THUS FAR THIS
MONTH.

No changes worthy of special note
have occurred during the last week
in the splendid conditions that have
prevailed for some time past in the
Florence Goldfield mine. That the
property is yielding it's usual output
is made evident by the fact that thus
far this month twelve carloads of ore
have been despatched to the Millers'
sampler of the Western Ore Purchas-
ing company.
Excellent results continue to at
tend the exploration of the new ore
body opened up about a month ago
in a branch raise off the main raise
from the main north drift on the
150-foot level to the 100-foot level.
Under the direction of Superintend-
ent Harry B. Clapp, eight feet of
excellent ore is being broken from
the orebOdy Immediately above and
below the 10O-foot level. 1t is the
intention of Superintendent Clapp to
continue the stopping operations to
the end of the orebody toward the
surface. This work will unquestion-
ably yield large tonnage of excel
lent rock as the orebody has already
been exposed on the 50-foot level.
On the 250-foot level, hanging
wall streak of three feet of excellent
ore of the main Florence vein is be-
ing followed from an old stope above
