EXTRACTS FROM THE REPORT or
e. A. BYLER, e. M.

Referring to the veins exposed
upon the property owned by the Dia-
mond Valley Company, Mr.. Byler
says: There is exposed on the
easterly end of the claim (Black
Diamnnd) a conspicuous quartz crop
ping forming a small peak just south
of the Black Diamond shaft. Nu-
merous small trenches have been
sunk on this ledge, which shows it to
be of considerable magnitude, but
the workings are insufficient to de-
termine the details of its character.
This vein, however, is exposed on
the Hard Tack property to the east
for a considerable distance and nu-
merous small shafts sunk upon it
show it to be quite regular and per-
sistent, some 6 or 8 feet in width
and having a dip to the south OF
about 60 degrees. From the ap-
pearance of the surface outcrop it
would seem probable that it is con-
siderably wider near the Black Dia-
mond shaft.
upon the Valley View claim just
west of the shaft are the groupings
VI d vein having d HOIJucIIy anu
southerly srike. No workings of
consequence have been done on this
within the company's property. but
just north upon the Gold Queen Co.'s
property small shafts have been
sunk, establishing it's trend. AS
exposed in these workings the vein
is some Is to 20 feet in width and
shows a slight dip to the east. Only
nominal values have been obtained
from the surface of these veins, but
upon the %northerly end of the Val
ley View fair paintings have been
obtained, but the exact point of the
origin of these values has not been
determined.
1.-The property lies just to the east
of a geological break of consider
able extent known as the Columbia
Mountain Fault as is shown on the

REPORTS.
Before c%onsenting to place the
stock of the Diamond Valley Com
pany before it's clients the H. A..
Riedel Investment Company looked
into the matter from every angle.
Among the various authorities con-
suited was Mr.. Charles D.. Wilkin-
son, M. E., for eight years the con-
sulting engineer of the biggest mine
in Goldfeld-the Goldfield Consoli-
dated. Time did not permit of the
issuing of a full report so hat it
might be included herewith, but a
brief preliminary statement was sent
by wire, which heads as follows:

C. d. WILKINSON.
1t may be pointed out in cOnnec-
ton with Mr.. WikinsOn's telegram
that the Florence and Daisy mines
have a production record of over S.
600, 900. The colOred geographical
maps included in the governments
report upon the Goldfield district
shows the formation of the Diamond
Valley. Daisy and the southern
half of the Florence mine to be ex-
actly the same-in fact all are To-

biologists as andesite. We find in
Mr.. Wilkinson's telegram a full on
firmation of the clOseness of the
Diamond Valley Company's proper
ty to the Columbia Mountain Fault
and also in reference to the strong
vein on the property.

this condition for the government. 1t
is perhaps sufficient to say that fire.
auent reference is made to it in what
is officially known as Professional
Paper No. sc of the United States
Geological Survey. The first dis
coveries made in the Combination
and Mohawk mines were due to this
cause, but at hat time the operators
knew merely that they had rich ore
and did not know the geological
conditions which brought it about.
We know now, however, that this is
the reason why the Mohawk mine,
for instance, did not have pay ore in
the upper 200 feet of the vein. The
reason was that the vein had not
yet come into contact with the CO.
lumbia Mountain fault; but it did at
greater depth and then produced an
enormous amount of rich ore along
the plane of the fault-a single car
load of which had a net value of
over $500. 900.

This floor rather than a plane, is
a zone of considerable width and

larities probably being due to breaks

sures extending from the surface
down to and merging with this main
channel.
Int these assures as we'll as in
the bone very rich and large ore
bodies have been deposited. The ore
as a rule does not come to the sur
face, usually not reaching nearer
than one hundred feet or more from
the surface.
THE Valley View shaft should cut
the Columbia Mountain fault ore
zon at a depth of about 700 feet and
at a less depth would probably in
tersect the Valley View vein which
should merge with the zone at some
point near the shaft. This shaft
should be sunk and developments
made both along the vein and the
zone when intersected. Also devel-
opment should be made on the vein
at less depth, say 800 feet or there
about, by crosscut west from the
shaft to the vein and drift thereon.
The Black Diamond vein has an
easterly and westerly strike and the
strength indicated at the surface
would make it probable that it also
would extend to and connect with
the Columbia Mountain fault ore
zone, such connection forming q
means of access of values herefrom.
Such connection, however, would be
at a depth of some 1900 feet at the
present shalt. though further west
the distance would be less. While it
is extremely likely that drifts along
this vein at reasonable depth would
disclose ore shoots extending within
the usual distance from the surface,
the Valley View vein is much the
more likely point to develop, on &C
count of its nearness to the Column
bia Mountain fault ore zone, such
development, preferably by the Val

perfectly clear that the purchase OF
Diamond Valley stock at this time is,
to quote an eminent authority, both
safe and sane. Nothing like it, in
our opinion, has ever been offered
to the public, and we unhesitatingly
recommend it as a buy to the max
imum of possibility.

The Columbia Mountain Fault ore

that the property of the Diamond

fortunately located as the main shaft

and a shaft of 700 feet will tap the

TWO BIG QUARTZ
VEINS EXPOSED.

VEINS EAPOSED.
Two strong ore veins are already
exposed at surface on the Diamond
Valley group, one running north and
south and the other in an easterry
and westerly direction. The more
prominent of the two is the Valley
View vein, which is from Is to 20
feet wide-a very generous size
and from which gold paintings were
obtained from surface quartz. The
Black Diamond vein is from 6 to 8
feet in width and gives evidences of
widening.
NOTHING BETTER
IN GOLDFIELD
1t will be readily seer from what
has been described above that no
mining property in the entire Gold
field mining district which is not
already in r has a better chance,
based upon sound logic and facts
established by the governments n
gineers, and, furthermore, by the
positive proof of the biggest pro-
ducing mines in the camp, than that
owned by the Diamondfield Valley
Company. The Merger, Lone Star,
Orc and other strong corporations
are now sinking shafts from 1000
to 1000 feet in depth to reach the
Columbia Mountain Fault, and this
very condition is within our reach

THE u ZONE.

Since the publication of the gov
ernment's findings and guided large
ly by the information contained
therein, several deep shafts have
been sunk on veins with the purpose
in view of reaching the Columbia
Mountain fault, and this work has
fully confirmed the fact that it is
under these conditions the big ore
bodies of the camp are found. Re-
markable recenti evidences of this
are found in the rich discoveries
made in the Jumbo Extension which
is now mining very rich ore on the
bed of the fault at a depth of $50
feet. and in the Grizzly Bear shaft,

LOOKING INTO
THE FUTURE

The estimate of expectation of
what is most likely to occur when
the Diamond Valley Company's two
veins are opened on the ore fault
plane must certainly be very large.
The Jumbo Extension company has
opened up a production estimated
al 1000, 900. 600 net per annum
in only a few months of develop
ment; the GOldfeld Consolidated
workings have already produced

at a total cost fully 1870 less than
is necessary for those deep workings
which lie considerably further east.
TWO DOUBLE
COMPARTMENT SHAFTS
Two double compartment shafts
have already been started down to-
wards the Columbia Mountain Fault
ore zone on the Diamond Valley
Company's property. One of these
shafts will develop the vein running
for 1900 feet north and south
through this property. while the
other will open up the east and west
vein. 1t is probable that levels and
crosscuts will be run out from the
No. 1 shaft to develop the vein at
a depth of two or three hundred
feet = that is, several hundred feet
before the fault zon is reached. as
it is the experience in the rich Gold
field mines that good ore is often
strucK before the fault is actually
encountered. The work will be
under the management of Mr.. e. A.
Byler, who resides in Goldfield, and
will be vigorously prosecuted.
THE BUSINESS
SIDE OF 1T
AS a matter of business COMPARE
son it may be pointed out that those
companies owning groups of prop
critics lying along the trend of the
Columbia Mountain Fault which
have already reached the contact
and opened ore therein, are selling
on a basis in excess of $10.0OO,00O
This is the selling value of the is
sued shares only and is, therefore,
the commercial valuation based
upon the production being made
and dividends being paid by the
companies. From this point OF view
it may be reasonably argued that
the comparatively normal amount
which is required to open the two
Diamond Valley veins down to the
Columbia Mountain Fault ore zone is
amply warranted.

TO rejoice over the reception rendered

every indication that general interest
has been manifested in behalf Of this
fine organization, and the advance sale
leaves nothing To be desired on the part
OF our music enthusiasts, who evident

sung in an understandable language
comes in the nature of a real opportuni-
ty, as Faust" is certainly one OF the
very few operas which appeals 10 the
popular sense of music education.
