Equator Mine VIII Operate.
In an interview with Mr.. C. E. Sam
pies, superintendent OF the Eonotou
mme, relative to the DEVELOPMENT ror
1919, we learn that it Is expectad 10
start the mine and mill full blast nv
the 10Th OF May. The Equator Ledge
IS Wide one varying in width from
10 TO 80 feet and will all plate s15 per
.oh' The mine is equipped with q &
loot CHILEAN mill at present. but the
company expects to plaes a 20 ton min
on the property in the near future in
order to handle their output. The
lower tunnel is in $50 feet which y,vas
them a depth of 300 in solid ore. Mr.
samples Is very much pleased with the
OUTLOOK and says there is no question
put what the Equator is In the divl-
dend class.-Enterprise.
The genial John Fox has started for
marshall Lake to put in a good son
sons work on his Sherman groun nv
extending the lower tunnel and omen
Ing up the fine chute ore found in
The upper tunnel, which ASSAYS on the
average of 100000 to the ton. This
group is one of the bonanzas in the
district.
l. X. Ball has come in from Portland
accompanied by Judge Alex Sweek and
N. p. Serenson and together went out
to see the Fisher placers on the
South Fork. Mr.. Ball is much interest
ed in this valuable property.

Jack Hennesey, an old time miner
and prospector, who is familiar with
every camp on the coast and who has
been in the Elk City country in the
early days, has gone back to that camp
to thoroughly prospect a large area
of country east from Elk City which
mas not had any attention by prospec-
tors for years.
We have no doubt but what some
good discoveries will be made for the
mineral belt extends to the summit OF
the Bitter Root mountains There
are some good hidden treasures to be
FOUND both in quartz and placers This
section in particular abounds in game
and fish.
Mr.. T. D. Collins, representing the
United Mining Corporation of Seattle
Is in the city to interest our business
and mining men in the newly invented
Green Amalgamator. ]. B. Green. fol
some time head mill man in the Bunk
er Hill and the Federal mines, invent
ed this new machine to save all fine
gold, Coarse as welD and other metals
that have before been lost. 1t saves
and separates the gold, platinum, and
the different constituents in the black
sands, as Chromate, garnet, Divine
mozonite, zircon and etc.
Along with this amalgamator is used
Barnes classifier and a Whitley sep
arator. The machine can be built
to handle from 500 tons or less to 5000
tons per 10 working hours. 1t is port
able and the right machine to work higl
or low bars along rivers, all kind OF
placer ground, old tailings and the pro-
duct of quartz mills. overcoming the
use of cyanide treatment in many cases
Where water is scarce, the same water
can be used over and over again. Two
men can attend the whole workings in
GLIDING the power of which but little
Is required.
A complete mill is in working order
near Charleston where 1t can be in
spected.
