neer in charge of both the mine and
the mill In many ways the plant is
decidedly different from any of the

throughout 1t has been passed upon
by number of engineers as the best
arranged mill in Nevada. The stamps
are heavier than usual, which is due
to the ore being unusually hard.
During the past few months the
