KEWANAS STARTING
DRIFTING ON CONTACT
PRELIMINARY WORK is COM
PLETED AND SHALE NOW
BEING EXPLORED

Drifts have just been started along
the shale contact from the winze
that was lately completed to this
point by the Reorganized Kewanas
Mining company, says the Goldfield
Tribune. Following the completion
of the sump, large working station
was cut at this point, $40 feet below
the surface, and a waste or ore
pocket of large dimensions was pre-
pared to facilitate the handling of ma
terial broken in development. An
electric hoist raises the material to
the station at the end of the east
crosscut driven into Kewanas ground
from the main shaft Of the Laguna,
on the 700-foot level, the winze hav-
ing been sunk from this station lao
feet to the contact.
All preparations have now been
completed for the exploration of the
shale contact over a wide area and
the drifts just starting will continue
to follow the contour of the shale. in
the hope that deposits OF commercial
ore will be found here. The fact that
the winze, upon reaching the shale.
exposed about four feet of quartz that
was shown by assays to contain some
gold, is accepted as evidence that
some part, possibly the edge of a
vein, has been penetrated lying along
the contact, forming condition sim
liar to that found in the Jumbo Elk
tension mine, adjoining the south.

TASK OF INSTALLATION
is A HEAVY PROPOSITION

The work of Transforming the new
transformers and other appliances at
the sub-station of the Nevada.C alifor-
MIA Power company in this city is
proving very heavy one and, al
though progress is being made as
rapidly as possible, it will probably
be two months before the work is
completed. Some of the parts weigh
as much as thirty tons. When the
appliances are all installed this will
be the most costly and efficient sub
station on the coast and will be al
most positively proof against inter
ruption of the service because Of
lightning.
