MOOSE PASS
RICH IN ORES
]. b. SLATER TAKES OUT POUND
OF GOLD WITH ARRASTRE
IN ONE WEEK.

To take out a pound of gold, two
hundred dollars worth, in one week by
the operation of an arrastre is the
extraordinary result of the work Of
J. B. Slater who has arrived in the
city with the brick from Broad Pass
where his property is located. MIR.
Slater has been working on his prop
erty, the independence Group, for
some time with the aid of a horse to
pack the ore down the hill to the ar
rastre. To secure the pound of gold
ne crushed less than half a dozen tons
of ore. The ledge from which the ore
was taken is a cross one about two and
half to three feet in width. The main
ledge is from three to twenty feet in
width. John Fitzpatrick, who owns
property on the same ledge has had
the rock assayed by the most eminent
members of the profession and has
now in his possession returns which
are over seven hundred dollars to the
ton in some instances. He has his
ledge uncovered for nine hundred feet
and has long stretches of tunnels, all
of which work has served to confirm
the opinions held of the great value
of the rock.
