Tuscarora Strike
Seems Big Thing

in all.
The ledge in the tunnel keeps about
the same width it showed on the sur
face and the whole fourteen feet is
good milling ore.
The rich strike was made about
two weeks ago. II was just one
chance in a thousand that the tun-
mel should come upon this rich quartz.
The high grade first showed up in
the roof of the tunnel. The quartz
was so very hard that all four men
could make was six inches a day.
Two feet of high grade was opened
up. But Mr.. Davis Is yet uncertain
if the footwall has been reached. He
thinks they may have just run up
against 4 horse of rhyolite.
The hanging wall is rhyolite and the
foo:wall porpyry. The country rock
is diorite or sort of grano.d;orite.
M. Davis says the formation is
very much like that of Mount Oddie at
Tonopeh.
The strike produced a small STAN
pede al Tuscarora. Already five leas-
cs have been let. These call for a
hun ned feet on the ledge. The leas-
ers are William Trimbath and Ben
Trimboth, Emme- Johnson and Jack
McEarTan, John Jack and par.ner.
Emicl Metelaw and Aley Car'v. Ear
n"y Horn and Buck Horn.
Te Horn brothers were in town yes
terday getting supplies and intended
ir start work on their lease today.
The ground leased takes in the tun-
mel. Davis and Workman are also
arranging TO sink Il shaft in the hang
ing wall on another part of their
ground.
one of the most significant things
IN the discovery is piece of float
weighing six pounds. This assayed
O0G ounces in silver. 1t was picked
up above the ledge where 1t crops on
the surface. 1t is this fact that makes
Mr.. Davis think they have not reached
the main ore body on the footwall.
Mr.. Davis says the showing at Di-
vide is far better than anything they
had on the surface at National. He
states that the character of ore is
very much like that at National. The
bullion at National is worth $11.50 an
ounce. National has become famous
aa high grade camp.
National is Go miles north west of
Divide.

Is the new camp of Divide to be
another National, or Tonopah?
Some of the ore LEFT in the Inde
pendent office makes ones eyes fairlJ
bulge: Pieces of the tellurium that
have been roasted show gold and sil
yer beads like pin heads.
Yet all that w. c. Davis had to say
of the new strike in the San Juan be-
fore he left by auto for Tuscarora last
evening was that 1T looks like
mighty good prospect. The fact is the
surface showing is one of the best
l have ever seem"
Mr.. Davis is the conservative type
of mining man. He is a University Of
California graduate, purely scientific
in his Investigations and deprecates
anything sensational. lie thought it
would be wise TO wait while before
much was said until he had made
further tests. He said he would be
down again in a few days and bring
with him some of the high grade ore
he had recently cut in the San Juan
tunnel.
Yet the pieces that Mr.. Davis had
with him carry 1000 ounces of silver
to the ton and S16S in gold. But
these were not from the two feet of
high grade in the tunnel.
Tellurium ore is usually very high
grade but it has to be roasted before
the values can be seen. 1t does not
need an assayer's certificate to prove
that the San Juan is showing some
very rich ore for surface groupings.
The new discovery was made by
Mr.. Davis and his partner, J. l.. Work
man, the two young men who in June,
1907, discovered National.
Mr.. Davis says the new district as
yet has no name but he thinks of call
ing it Divide. The find was made right
on the divide between the waters of
the Columbia river and the Humboldt
basin. To the north flow the waters
of the Owyhee and to the south runs
Rock creek to the Humboldt.
The strike is seven miles north
west of TuscaTora and about three
miles from the old Falcon mine. II
is right at the head of Dry and Cot
tonwooG creeks.
There is good road from Divide
down Rock creek 10 the Red House

road into TuscaroTa of about twelve
miles. The distance to Red House or

The strike of the vein Is northeast
and southwest and the dip is to the
west. The ledge stands at an angle
of about 20 degrees and it dips with
the hill.
Thus the tunnel was run through
the hanging wall. But the high grade
values are found next to the foot

The tunnel in 120 feet cuts the
ledge at q depth of about rs feet. The
ledge on the surface is fourteen feet
wide and it has been opened up in
flve places for a distance of about l.

Altogether Davis and Workman
