IMPROVING AS
WORK ADVANCES
KEWANAS FIND RESPONDING TO
DEVELOPMENT IN GOOD
SHAPE

The steady improvement of late in
the strike at depth in the property of
the Reorganized Kewanas Mining
company justifies the belief that the
find will develop into one of far
reaching Importance. General Man
ager A. |. Darcy has been reluctant
to discuss the discovery until
it's significance and magnitude
had been established beyond
question but the improvement
during the last few days has been so
marked that he consented to make
statement.
The face of the drift which is ad-
vancing north in the mammoth vein
at vertical depth of S3S feet from
the surface showed Tuesday three
and a half feet of ore that averaged
$4S.50 per ton.
The drift was started about two
weeks ago on a streak three feet
wide which gave an asay OF $22.4o
per ton, in which the copper content
ran high. Since then the drift has
been advanced a distance of 80 feet
AS the ore has increased in value
and width, the copper content has
decreased and the gold values i'm
proved.
The discovery apparently bears
the same relation to the ore bodies
of the Red Top mine Of the Goldfeld
Consolidated Mines company as do
those of the Jumbo Extension mine
to those of the Clermont mine of the
Consolidated 1t was first made at
a point 200 feet north of the winze
in Kewana No. 2 claim below the
east crosscut extended on the 700
foot level of the Laguna mine of the
Consolidated or about the middle OF
Kewana claim No. 2, but 200 feet
east of the west sideline thereof. Th,'
vein dips to the east on an angle
of 80 degrees from the horizontal
and trends north and south. Oper-
ations are still at a standstill in the
east crosscut which was stopped after
it had penetrated the vein for dis
tance of thirty feet without disclos-
ing the hanging wall. The values
obtained for that width varied from
81 to $22.45 per ton. AS soon as it
is possible to do SO, Manager D'Arcy
will resume operations in the cross
cut to determine the full width of
tha vein

of Goldfield, which is being oper.
ated under lease by j. w. Dunfce.
The improvement has been so mark.
ed of late that there is ample JUS
tification for the belief that it ID de-
stined to prove one of the great new
producers of southern Nevada. Mr..
Dunfee. who is at present making a
brief business visit to Goldfeld, is.
Notwithstanding his characteristic
cold -blooded calculations as a min
ing operator, enthusiastic as to the
future of the property, evidence of
which is found in the fact that he
has decided to sink a new shaft to
permit of its future exploration in
a more economical manner than is
possible under present conditions
there.
Mr.. Dunfee secured about july 1
a lease upon the property from Jean
Pierre Charra of Paris, France. con-
sulting engineer of the company who
was at that time visitor to Gold
field on business connected with the
corporation. Shipments from the
mine were inaugurated by Mr.. Dun
fee on July 20, last, and since that
date i,e has sent to the mill at Mil
ers of the Tonopah Belmont Devel'
opnient company seven carloads 'r
approximately ESQ tons of ore that
las averaged better than $50 per
ton, mostly gold. The eighth car is
now being loaded for shipment at
Stonewall siding on the l.. v. e =.
railroad, to which the ore is hauled
by auto trucks from the property. a
distance of 16 miles.

Like the touch of the magic wand,
the recent discovery at depth in the
property of the Reorganized Ke-
wanas Mining company, supported
by the continued excellent physical
condition of other local mines and
the renewed interest of investors in
their shares, has had the effect of
awakening Goldfield from the state
of lethargy through which it has
been passing during the heated sea-
son. In consequence, the outlook
for the district is highly promising
and there Is every condition pres
ent to indicate that the oft-repeated
prediction that Goldfield would, with
the arrival of fall, experience an
other period of activity and prosper
ity similar to that of a year ago and
those of it's infancy will be fulfilled.

pany as do those of the Jumbo Ex-
tension mine to those of the Cler-
mont mine of the Consolidated, con-
ditions being strikingly similar in
many respects.
Since the temporary suspension of
work in the east crosscut from the
main north drift after the vein had
been intercepted for distance of
thirty feet without exposing the
hanging wall, drifting to the north in
the ledge itself has progressed
about 100 feet. In that distance the
streak in the vein has increased in
width from three to three and a
half feet and in average value from
$22.45 tu $4S.50 per ton, mostly
gold.
Jumbo Extension
Although Kewanas has wrested
from it leadership on the mining
stock exchanges. the Jumbo Exten-
sion mine is splendidly maintaining
itself as one of the heaviest produc-
ers of the camp, despatching daily
so tons of ore that averages around
$45 per ton. The most notable new
development in the mine was the
discovery several days ago of five
feet of ore averaging $133 per ton
in the northeast drift on the 500
foot intermediate level. This ore
is being mixed with the lower grade
output of other workings in the ship
ments made.

Interest in the operations of the
Atlanta Mines company centers at
present largely in the disclosure of

says $14.70 per ton in gold and cop

kEWANAS EX. IS
COMING TO FRONT
DEvEJOPMENT OF PROPERTY
TO BE RESUMED AFTER
LONG IDLENESS

The recent exposure of ore in the
property of the Reorganized Ke-
wanas Mining company has revived
public interest in the Kewanas Ex-
tension Mining company, which owns
the Kewanas fractional claim OF
about fifteen acres, adjoining the
Kewana Nos. and 8 claims of the
Kewanas company on the north. For
the first time in a long period Ke-
wanas Extension stock figured today
in the trading on the San Francisco
stock exchange, 1000 shares chang
ing hands at four cents per share.
Coincidentally, it was officially
announced that the control of the
company was acquired by the Charles
S. Sprague interests from San Fran
cisco parties several months ago
and that preparations are now be-
ing made for the resumption of the
development of the property after an
idleness of about eight years. In
the early days of the camp the ke-
wanas Extension company held a
lease on the north 400 feet of the
Kew ana No. claim of the Goldfield
Kewanas Mining company, the prede-
cesscr of the Reorganized Kewanas
Mining company, adjoining it's frac-
tor, and sank shaft to a depth of
400 feet on the leased territory. Ar
langements have been made by the
new management of the Kewanas Ex-
tension company to use the old lease
shaft. which will probably be sunk
to the latite-shale contact before
laterals are extended into the Ke
wana fraction.

JUMBO EXTENSION NINE SPLEN.
DIDLY MAINTAINING ITS
STELLAR POSITION

Five feet of ore assaying $133 per
ton has been exposed in the Jumbo
Extension mine by a northeast drift
recently started on the S00-foot in
termediate level, which is reached
by way OF an incline raise from the
$50 foot level. This is the closest
point to the surface at which ore
has neen mined from the contact o.
shale segments of the vein by drift
ing. Only low grade values were
exposed in the face when the drift
was started. The yield of this drift
4 being mixed with that of other
workings in ore, and the eighty tons
of ore being shipped daily is aver
aging around $45 per ton.
On the $50 foot intermediate level
east drift $50 on the contact segment
VI the vein is exposing four feet of
s21aore. .sWest crosscut 542, which
is being advanced on the same level
to explore the footwall of the vein,
is beginning to show values. The
east drift on the 91S foot level is
yielding six feet of $25 ore and the
east drift on the $50 foot level three
feet of $35 ore. The slopes on the
shale segment of the vein are main
tanning their normal output. Four
feet of $50 ore is exposed in stope
511 above the 952 foot level and
four feet of $50 ore is being broken
in stope SIS above the 964 foot level
