The Goldfield news and weekly tribune. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1911-1947, 1915-10-16

past week.
Conditions in the Rescue property
as shown by the report for this week,
are of a most attractive character.
Development operations on the new
ore discovery are progressing in a
satisfactory n and the pros
poets continue to be possibly the most
encouraging that have existed in the
mine. The management is strongly
inclined to restrain the publication
of any report that might in any way
magnify the Importance of present
conditions, but it involves no exag-
geration to say the conditions that
have been developed within the past
few weeks and which still continue,
justify a most optimistic spirit on
the part of the stockholders and the
management.
North Star
The management of the North
Star property reports for this week
that there has been no change of ma
terial consequence, while all opera
tons have been progressing with the
usual persistence, and the regular
amount of footage having been ac-
complished.
On the 500 level north c~rosscut
$50 was advanced the customary dis
lance. the formation, which is ira
chyte, showing no change of i'm
p%ortance.
On the 1894 level the intermedi-
ate raise started last week shows
no particular change. The vein con-
tinues to be from two to two and a
half feet wide, carrying some good
values, but it is spotted as yet. The
conditions are quite encouraging
and those best informed on condi-
tions at this point would not be sur
prised to note a very important de-
velopment at any time.
Cash Boy
The progress of development in
the Cash Boy for the week has been
exceedingly satisfactory, both in re-
spect to the amount of footage &C
complished and also in the matter
of the showings in the workings in
which the recent discoveries were
made as reported last week.
Considerable improvement is no.
ticeable in the face of the east drift
which is going ahead ON the hanging
wall of the contact vein from the
north crosscut on the 1850 level.
The punches of ore appearing in the
face of the drift, as reported last
week continue as the work progress,
es, the values increasing constantly
and the width and strength of the
seams becoming more impressive.
Regular progress has been made in
this work and the company is fol-
lowing the development with the
greatest expectations.
UmatilIa
The management of the Umatilla
reports that the diamond drill OPP
erations have been proceeding with
out interruption until a depth OF
$50 feet below the 1900 level has
been reached. The company has eX-
perienced less difficulty with the
had ground which for some time de-
layed their progress, owing to the
necessity for frequently stopping
| drilling operations in order to re-
pair bad places with cement.
Halifax
The development and exploration
operations 1T the Halifax property
have proceeded without any import
ant incident during the week, the
usual progress having been accomp-
lished.
The operations heretofore report
ed on the 1900, 400 and 1900 lev
els have progressed without ma
terial change since the last report
was furnished, the regular advance
ment in all the work For this, as
compared with the previous week
having been maintained without di-
minution.
Buckeye-BelmOnt
The 900 level of the Buckeye is
! showing a good face of quartz, In
both the east and west drifts north
of the shaft. 1t e probable
that this work, which is following
the hanging wall of the contact, will
make into an ore body.
TOnOpah Bonanza
Sinking operations have been re-
stunned in the Tononah Ronanza and
excellent progress is being made.
Tho work of cutting the station and
catching I'm the water at the 900
level has been completed and the
wafer is now under Derfect control.
The station Dump. which the COM
Many to install at this level
has not vet been placed in position,
hut the sinking pump is being tenn
porariIy used in this capacity and is
giving comnlete satisfaction. The
electric station pumn, which is o
satisfactory for OF this
character will be installed within a
short time, however. - Tonopah
