SILVER PICK TO
EXPLORE SHALE.
LEVEL AND DRILLING
RESUMED

A contract has been let provil-
ing for the sinking of the man
shaft of the Silver Pick Consoli-
dated company from it's present
depth of 700 feet to depth of 1000
feet, at which point cores from the
Calyx drill produced quartz that
yielded assays up to $50 per ton.
according to statement given out
by the manager, G.. F. Dyer. 1t is
the intention of the management to
contiue operating the core drill,
which will be installed at the end
of the west cross-cut on the 500
foot level, about 45O feet from
the shaft, to prospect the west or
Phelan vein..
In a report submitted recently to
President Herman Zadig and the di-
rectors of the Silver Pick COMPANY,
Manager Dyer sets forth the re-
suits obtained in sinking the Calyx
drill. This drill, producing at the
bcginEing a core SIS inches
in diameter, was started at the
bottom of the shaft. on the 100
foot level, with the intention Of
sinking from 600 to 1000 feet.
After the drill had progressed about
100 feet the condition of the ground
began to show a marked change
and at depth of $50 feet seams
of quartz. yielding low assays,
were shown by the core sections.
Above this depth water had ap-
roared in considerable volume, but
here the water decreased and the
formation was shown to be hard
and compact, with many particles
Of sulphide material. After passing
through a zone of mineralized and
silicified material the drill pene-
trated the shale. After passing
through shale for some distance the
drill again entered a zone of quartz,
yielding gold, silver and copper Be-
low this, the drill is said to have
penetrated the alaskite. The drill
passed through 35 feet of this ma
terial and entered another quartz
mass, yielding good assays. y
1t was then decided to sink the
main shaft to this depth, and in
preparation for this work the head
frame has been rebuilt, founda-
tions strengthened and additional
cable placed on the drum of the
hoisting engine. Timbers have been
delivered for the additional 800
feet of shaft and a large station is
being cut in the western workings
on the 500 level for the drill. Sink
ing, both in the main shaft and
with the Calyx drill, will proceed
with three shifts and will make rap
id progress in future.

REVIEW Of mining OPERATIONS IN GOLDFIELD District

Extension company. The new de-
velopment work in the northern part
of the Velvet claim is meeting with
highly encouraging results, having
exposed ore of commercial grade at
several points and in considerable
volume. The east drift on the 800
foot level is nearing the boundary of
the Jumbo Junior company's prop
erty, where the work will be con-
tinued along the hanging wall of the
great vein by the latter company
and the vein will be thoroughly ex-
plored at this depth and above. TIE
main Slopes of the Jumbo Extension
continue to yield ore of excellent
average grade for shipment at the
rate of over 100 tons daily.

Goldfield is awaiting impatiently
the completion of the two flotation
plants of large capacity, now in
process of construction, and the re-
suits 20 lie obtained from the intro
duction OF this process. In other
districts the process has worked
miracles, in the revival of prosperi-
ty and in the increase of profitable
production, and it is now well es-
tablished that the application of the
process here is destined to increase
in vast measure the output of
metals from the district.
Copper, which in the early years
of the district was regarded as a
detriment to the mines, and which
up to the present time, with only
cyanidation as a means of treating
local ores, has been regarded mere
ly as a by-product, is destined to
become an important factor in the
earnings of local mining companies
and in some local ores, mined at
deep levels, it is probable that the
red metal will prove to be the
most valuable content.

ORE FOUND ON
CRACKER JACK
SURFACE WORK OPENS LARGE
DEPOSIT IN MAIN NORTH
VEIN

While the work of installing the
surface plant has been in progress
on the property of the Reorganizad
Cracker Jack company, surface pros
pecting has continued and has re-
suited within the past week in ex-
posing an orebody of large dimen-
sions and apparently of uniformly
good milling grade. From de-
scription of the new discovery by
H. G. Mcmahon, who is in charge
of the company's affairs. it appears
that the find may prove one OF
great importance. as the point ex-
posed is apparently the top of an
ore shoot which has not been open
ed below the surface and which is
evidently of considerable magnitude.
A prospect shaft is being sunk to
further explore this orebody and as
depth is gained the character of the
ore has shown marked improve
ment. At the maiu shaft, on the
Adams ground, timbering has been
nearly completed to the first station,
at a depth of 115 feet, and develop
cent work will be started shortly on
this level, both east and west, to
explore the two large parallel veins
that crop about 80 feet apart.
An east cross-cut has already
reached the fcot-wall of the east
vein, which is the main Columbia
Mountain fault lode, and there Is
but a short distance to drive to cut
the west vein on this level.
