steady increase in the available ton
mage. Among the properties of the
prospect class, development is going

Jumbo Extension
Since they will receive in the next
few days checks for the recently de-
clared dividend of seven and a half
cents a share on the outstanding
stock of the corporation, mine condi-
tions are Just at present a second
ary consideration to the stockhold-
ers of the Jumbo Extension Mining
company. The disbursement will ag-
gregate $116,25O, making the total
distribution of profits among stock
holders S,305.S0.
Although the payment of the divi-
dend holds first interest, mine de-
velopments of late have been of a
sustaining character. The operations
are gradually extending the eastern
and western limits of the main ore
shoot of the mine, already proven
more than $50 feet in length along
and near the famous latite-shale con-
tact and for several hundred feet on
its dip. The workings tributary to
SEGA raise above the main south
east drift on the 1917 foot level
constitute the easternmost and deep
est point to which the exploratory
work has progressed. The north
drift from the raise named is being
advanced on five feet of ore that
assays $25 per ton From the
south drift from the same raise a
west crosscut toward the foot wall OF
the contact segment of the ledge
has thus far passed through thirty
two feet of vein matter without
reaching the objective point. An
east drift recently started from raise
5O4-E above the south crosscut on
the 932 foot level is exposing four
feet of $39 ore. Three feet OF $l5
ore is being mined in the extension
of the west drift from the same
raise, which is located in the west
ern section of the ore shoot. Val

IMMENSE TONNAGE OF ORE IS
EXPOSED IN PIONEER CON. Mine

Assay figures contained in a re-
mort upon the operations OF the Fl
oneer Consolidated Mines company
during the last sixty days, just pre-
pared by j. X. Turner, consulting
engineer, reflect the splendid physl-
cal condition of the mine, located IN
the Pioneer district, south of Gold
field. Copies of the report, supple
menting a brief Introductory report
by w. J. Tobin, president and gener-
al manager, are now being mailed out
to stockholders of the company.
The announcement is made in the
report of President TObin that, be-
ginning September 1, mill operations
will be increased from an average OF
twelve to at least sixteen hours per
day, which is more than Justified by
the large tonnage of ore exposed and
available in the mine. He further
states that the company has recelV-
ed applications for leases on various
parts of the property, some of which
will probably be granted shortly
The report of Consulting Engineer
Turner follows:
Development on your property has
progressed continuously for the last
60 days. The south crosscut on the
10 foot level has been extended IS
feet, at which point raise was drlv-
en- for six feet, which exposed the
ore body on it's dip. The face OF the
north crosscut on the same level has
been advanced 40 feet. Work will
continue at this point with view to
exposing the main, or Bonanza stope,
ore body.
The south crosscut on the 250 foot
intermediate level was advanced 40
feet. A raise was driven at this
point for eight feet and exposed the
extension of the large ore body
which supplied most of the ore for
the mill last year. Stopping has been
started at this point. The full width
of the ore body has not been deter
mined as yet.
About so feet of surface prospect
work, consisting of crosscuts, drifts
and wlnZe, has been performed Oh
a we'll defined ore zone, 30 feet west
of the Rickard shaft, on the ground
formerly known as the Rickard
lease block. The results of this
work warrant the running of cross
cut in westerly direction from the
Rickard shaft lat the rs foot point.
to cut the downward extension OF
this exposed ore zone. A station is
now being cut and crosscutting will
be started as soon as possible. The
Rickard shaft has depth of 800 feet
and is equipped with first-class
hosting plant, blacksmith shop, etc.
This newly found ore body can be
developed economically and thor
oughly from this shaft.

bottom level of the Silver Pick Con-
solidated property. a crosscut is be-
ing extended 60 feet from the shaft
sump Is feet below the level. The
raise at height of 60 feet above
the 700-foot level is revealing small
values and conditions presaging the

tension of the big quartz mass first
exposed more than a year ago in the
shaft between the 800 and 4OO-foot

the sump crosscut, operations in the

ORDER FOR NEW
PUMP IS PLACED
GREAT BEND WILL INSTALL IL
ON THE 4OO-FOOT
LEVEL

The Goldfield Great Bend Mining
company has placed with the San
Francisco branch OF the Cameron
Pump company an order for four
stage turbine centrifugal station
pump. 1t will be delivered within
the next 80 days and be installed
in the station on the 400-fOOt or
bottom level of the property The
new pump, driven by 35-horse-
power electric motor, will have Ca
pacity of $50 gallons of water per
minute and will replace the sinker
at present keeping the mine free of
water. Although the flow for a
time during the unwatering of the
workings ran as high as 100000 gal
Ions per day, it is now averaging
being pumped from the sump below
the 400-foot station and is not in
the least interfering with operations
The management is finding the
work of cleaning out the workings
on the 400-foot level almost as diff
f1cult task as that or unWaterlng
which confronted it when the con-
troll of the company was taken over
by the Sprague interests several
months ago after the property had
been idle about eight years. Debris,
consisting of fine material that has
filled up the level workings from
roof to floor, has been removed from
the east drift on the middle Daisy
vein for distance of 55 feet from
the 21-foot north crosscut from the
main vertical shaft. The manage
ment is prosecuting the cleaning up
work as rapidly as possible but prog
ress is necessarily slow on account
of the bad condition of the work
ings, due to water standing in them
during the long period Of inactivity.

PIONEER Mine
IN GOOD SHAPE
TEN-STAMP MILL Is TREATING
THIRTY TONS OF ORE
DAILY

After a three-day visit of inspec-
ton to the property in the Pioneer
district, south of Goldf1eld, OF the
Pioneer Consolidated Mines company,
of which he is consulting engineer
7. X. Turner has returned to camp.
He reports operations at the proper
tv proceeding smoothly and attend
ed by highly gratifying results.
The ten-stamp mill of the cont
pany has been considerably improved
since the resumption of operations
about go days ago after shutdown
of several months, directly due to
caye-in in which w. J. Tobin, presi-
dent and general manager. and
miner were injured. The mill is now
operating 10 hours a day. reducing
80 tons. The extraction being made
is ranging between Is and 80 per
cent.
A large portion of the ore milled
is being extracted from the Bonan-
"a stope above the west drift on tae
12O-foot level where there Is 10 feet
of s11 ore exposed. Eight feet of
similar grade of material is also be-
ing mined from the stoDe above the
25O-foot level. On the 256-foot level
what appears to be the downward
extension of the Bonanza orebody
has Just been revealed by raise at
the time of Engineer Turner's de-
parture from the mine the raise had
not sufficiently penetrated the ore
body to determine the significance
of the new disclosure.
The exploration of the Rlckara
vein. SO named in consequence or
the fact that it was recently found
within the confines OF block OF
ground operated under lease by
..Tex" Rickard and associates in the
early days of the camp, is going
steadily ahead. On the surface the
ledge has been opened up for a
width of eight to ten feet for
length of about forty feet. The val
ues obtained have been so gratify-
ing that Manager Tobin has just
started a west crosscut from the
75-foot point ~ the Rickard lease
shaft to cut the ore body. 1t IS
calculated that it will be necessary
to extend the crosscut about 125
feet tc reach the objective point.

SINKING WINE
TO PASS TIME
HORNSILVER LESSEE IS MAKING
GOOD IN OPERATING FRENCH
PROPERTY

j. w. Dunfee, whose success in
leasing operations on the Orleans
property of LIE Champ dor Gold
Mining, Limited, a French corpora
ton, is materially reviving interest
in the Hornsilver district. south Of
|. Goldfield is a visitor in camp on bus
mess. He will return to the proper
ty in few days.
Since obtaining lease on the
ground about 40 days ago Dunfee
has shipped to the old Belmont COM
pany mill at Millers five carloads or
approximately 200 tons of ore that
has averaged around $40 per ton in
gold and silver. But for lack CT
inadequate freighting facilities be-
tween the mine and Stonewall siding
on the Las Vegas & Tonopah rail-
road, a distance of 16 miles, Dunfee
could have shipped twice the ton"
mage of ore in the period named,
proof of which is found in the fact
that he has at present on the shin
ping dump at the property 800 tons
of $40 ore, in addition to a similar
tonnage of rock assaying from SIT
to $22 per ton.
Pending the repair of the motor
trucks used in transporting the ore
to the railroad and the acquisition
of additional freighting facilities,
the extension of the east and west
drifts on the 214-foOt intermediate
level of the property has been sus-
pended for a few days. Meanwhile,
however. Dunfee is continuing deep
er the winze through which the In
termediate level workings are reach
ed from the 150-foot level. The
winze bottom is all in ore of ship
ping grade. The east drift on the
intermediate level is at present eX-
posing seven feet of ore averaging
$4S per ton and the west a full face
of $40 ore.

ues are beginning to show in raise
525-A above the north drift on the
1917 foot level at a height of about
sixteen feet. The east drift on the
91S foot level along the contact seq
ment of the ledge is going forward
on five feet of $50 ore. similar
grade of ore for a width of three
feet is being mined from the face of
the north drift from the top of raise
524-A above the $50 foot level. The
stope above the east drift on the
952 foot level is yielding five feet of
$113 ore, while that above the east
drift on the 964 foot level is being
extended on five feet of SAL ore. The
daily mixed output of the mine, av-
eraging eighty tons, is running
around $45 per ton.
Florence Goldfield
Thus far this month shipments
from the Florence mine have aggre-
gated nine carloads or $50 tons. 1t
is probable that another carload will
be shipped before the close OF the
month. The ore is averaging around
$40 per ton and is being yielded by
stope B and raise G on the new vein
on the $50 foot level north of the
main working shaft in the vicinity of
the old Florence Consolidated lease
hold. General Superintendent Harry
B. Clapp has decided to prospect the
footwall and hanging wall sections
of the famous Reilly stope and for
that purpose a new raise is being
put up from the $50 foot level.
Atlanta Mines
Development wors! at the property
of the Atlanta Mines company is go
ing steadily ahead with but little
change in physical conditions. South
drift 1917 on the 1620-foot level
continues to be advanced. A cross
cut is soon to be started from it near
the present face for exploratory pur-
poses north drift has just been
started from the top of 1017-A raise

stope Aug. 20, at the point where tho
cave-in occurred last December.
Samples taken by me on Aug. 20 at
this point, across five feet, for dis
tance of 20 feet, averaged $26 per
ton.
Lrosscutting northwest was re-
sumed on the 324 foot level, with a
view OF intersecting the downward
extension of the ore zone exposed on
the upper levels. 1t is the intention
to raise at intervals from this cross
cut.
The results of sampling, during my
last visit to the property, were eX-
ceedingly satisfactory. Three SAM
pies taken from different points in
the east Bonanza stope, each across
five feet, averaged $16.13 per ton.
A sample taken from the top of the
No. 8 chute, across five feet, gave
$12.S0 per ton. Five samples taken
from the west side of the Bonanza
stope, on the 130 foot level, each
taken across 10 feet, cOnsecutively,
averaged $14.32 per ton. One sam
pie taken from the west side of the
Bonanza stCpe, on the lao foot level,
across five feet and for distance of
15 feet, gave $1G.60 per ton. One
sample from the northeast end of the
Bonanza stope, at the 10 foot level,
across five feet and for distance of
l5 feet, gave 1920 per ton. The
samples from the new prospect work
on the Rickard lease ground, while
assaying low, warrant the proposed
crOsscut, as mentioned above.
Your mill resumed operations on
July 12, working eight hours per
day On July "a the power COM
pany's sub-station at RhyOlite burn
ed, which forced your mill to close
until Aug. 10. Operations have con-
tinued since that date, running AN
average of II hours per day. The
mill has been completely overhauled,
and with the addition of new screens,
as contemplated, saving of between
Is and 80 per cent should be made.
| recommend that the development
work now being performed be con-
tinued without interruption. The
present work on the ore in the BO-
nanza stope, on the $50 foot level.
at the point of the cave-in, should be
continued, as indications are very
favorable for exposing shipping
grade of ore at this point.
l strongly advise that the mill be
operated at least 16 hours per day.
as the ore exposed fully warrants
this capacity.
The mine conditions are exceed
ingly good for production of an av-
erage grade mill ore of $40 per ton.
The old workings have been tim
bered, wherever necessary, and all
energy can be devoted to ore pro-
duction and new development work.
