Bisbee daily review., 1916-02-13

Kingman and the Fredonia property at Golconda, about one and a quarter mile farther north. is about to begin drift ing north on the i0O-foot level of its
 shaft on the main vein which shows a
 width of four feet and gives excellent values The drift will be advanced 200
 feet Or more to catch the downward extension of what is known as .ae Ayres ore shoot which is credited with i a past production of nearly S2OO,0OO,
 on the upper levels of the mine There
 still remains on these levels large tonnag of milling ore. upon which sue ccssful mill tests havN recently been
 made, total saving of from S5 to S7 bcr cent being effected, 80 per cent by amalgamation. The ore extracted on
 the new level will be treated in re duction plant already on the ground,
 consisting of cotton Nissen mill and concentrations It is the intention of the management to increase the capac- ,ty of the plant to 90 tonI daily a. soon
 as conditions in the mine justify. 1t is also the plan to install at an early tate a large compressor and machine drills in order that operations nay
 be prosecuted with Crcater facility
 than is possible at present. At the F'reconia group which ccEsists oi four claims, a depth of B tCet has been
 gained in a shaft tha. is designed to
 follow the vein to the 2)0 foot point. On the surface the vein shows a width
 cf from 4 to l2 feet Samples taken fem open cuts across it on the sur fd,e at at sevs '4l points in the shaft, [ ,is we'll as dumps nave s. own tie val ues to vary from S4.t' to $10f. per ton

 Preliminary to the resumption of it's , operations upon an extensive scale, | Charles D. Rutledge of Salt Lake City, 1 Utah, and' associates, have begun the { task of unwatering the 270-foot incline shaft of the Golden Star Property, 3
 miles south of Chloride, which they
 recently took over from the Golden Star Mining and Reduction Co. The
 water stands witkin 50 feet of the | .h3ft collar and is being hoistcd by a i Lailer To facilitate the work d 1., horsepower gasoln" hoist is being iii ' stalled It is the intention of tho Tiesent operatn: 10 continue the shaft n the 500-foot point and resume the extension of drifts on the vein on the i 110 and 200 foot levels, simultaneous ly after tlte mine has been completely
 unwatered. Drifts will also be run CT | the 300 foot lepel when t is establish
 ed. The vein varies in width from tC | 6 feet and averages around s25 per tot in gold and silver. |. yielded ore tC ! ,he value of approximately S200,0G above the 110-foot level more than ter
 years ago and it's future explorations
 will be watched with keen interest b.

 The west crosscut on the first or ;s9
 foot level of the Arabian mine in tht ] Union Pass Section of che Sar Fran
 cisco district recently intersected and
 showed the main vein to measure IHort ! than 100 feet in width at that depth According to Bertrand GcanI, who
 with associates, in operating the pro
 perty the vein carries low, yet encour aging values for it's entire weidth and drifting north and south along the footwall is now in progress.
