REVIEW Of mining OPERATIONS IN GOLDFHD DISTRICT

Mining operations of nearly all the active companies
in the Goldeld district were practically at a standstlll dur
ing five days of the week, owing to the shutting off of the
electric power, which drives all mining, milling and pump
ing equipment in the district. With the stopping of cleo
trically driven pumps some of the deeper workings were
flooded and a considerable loss has been sustained through
the interruption of development work and ore extraction,
but it is not believed that any permanent damage has re-
suited in any of the mines.
The power tie-up was caused by a storm and blizzard
of record intensity, extending throughout this part of the
state and eastern California and blowing down several
miles of power transmission lines. The work of repairing
long breaks in the high mountain ranges to the west was
hanpered by deep snow, and only on Thursday evening
was connection restored.
The approach of the year-end brings the usual act1v-
iy in the performance of the annual work on mining
claims and the deep snow has little effect on the extent of
this work. The large amount. of this work indicates that
comparatively little ground will be relocated at the end
of the year, as all companies and claim owners have ar
ranged for the necessary work on all territory of any pros
pective value, both within the boundaries of the Goldfied
district and in the many surrounding districts.
Aside from the work interrupted by power shortage
during the week, the usual large amount of development
progresses in the mines of Goldfield, and plans have been
perfected to start new work on several properties that
have long been inactive. This work will proceed without
regard to weather conditions, which as a rule have little
effect on the work in the mines here.
Events Of the greatest Importance to the Goldfield
district are fores1adowed for the early weeks of the new
year. Foremost among these events will be the introduc-
ton of the oil flotation process, on a large scale, and the
treatment of l%ow-grade, refractory ores for which there
has been no market in the past, but which can now be

MT. JACKSON
Will SHIP
COPPER
DISTRICT SOUTH OF GOLDFIELD
PROMISES BIG RED METAL
YIELD

Activity in copper mining in the
Jackson Mountain district, 20 miles
south of Goldfield, is foreshadow-
cd by plans for the development on
a broad scale of properties that
have already made an excellent
showing from a relatively small
amount of development work. The
Rea property, which has attracted
widespread attention in the past, is
about to undergo a thorough sys-
tenn of development and has lately
shipped some ore of excellent grade.
A shipment from this property OF
20 tons of copper ore broken in
development work on the 200-foct
level, yielded net returns of $29.55
per ton, and it is said that some
ore of even higher grade is in sight
at this depth. The shaft has been
sunk to a depth of 800 feet and
lateral work will now be extended
on this level to explore the ore
bearing zone opened on the 200
foot level.
Ct' W. hi"'S III Wis - Itl, lOt~
lowing careful examinations by
several biologists and mining en-
gineers of high standing, have all
pronounced the district to be one
of great promise for the develop
ment of large deposits of copper
ore of commercial grade. The re-
ports show the ore-bearing zone
opened on the 200-foot level of the
Rea property to be 20 feet in widtn
and a large part of this material
averages from two to over four per
cent copper, while smaller widths
OF high-grade cuprite and chalcopy-
rite have been exposed. In every
instance the examining engineers
have recommended further develop
ment work, and some have advised
prospecting at depth by means OF
core drills.
Two large groups of claims ada
cent to the Rea property and hav-
ing an equally good surface showing
are likely to be developed on a
liberal scale in the near future. On
one OF tneSe groups, consisting or
26 claims and owned by the Nc.
Jackson Cuprite Copper company,
there are especially good surface in
dications, with iron gossan extend
ing over large areas, and samples
from various points on this ground
have yielded assays of 16 per cent
copper.

JUNIORS
OUTLOOK BRIGHT
RICH ORE SHOWN IN SEAMS ON
DEEPEST LEVEL OF
NINE

Conditions in the Jumbo Junior
property are pronounced to be high
ly encouraging, with good prospects
that the property will develop into
q producer of the first Importance.
The winze below the drift on the
SS0-foot level is now we'll within
the shale contact zone and has been
showing seams of high-grade ore,
containing gold and copper and
similar in character to the ricn
material shipped from the deep
workings of the adjoining Velvet
claim of the Jumbo Extension.
1t is the plan of the management
to open this ground at greater depth
10y extending into Jumbo Junior ter
ritory one of the deeper levels OF
the Jumbo Extension, probably the
9?5-foot level, which has reached
a point near the boundary between
the two properties. In this man
ner the work can be conducted
along the shale's surface and the
Junior ground can be explored by
means of raises, in the same man
ner practiced in opening up the
bonanza deposits of the Jumbo Ex-
tension The high-grade seams III
dictate that the present work may
be close to an orebOdy of great
value.

KEWANAS IS
IN GOOD
SHAPE
DRIFT FROM NEW RAISE AT
DEPTH is NEARING
OREBODY

With the removal of the water
that has accumulated in the bottom
level of the Kewanas mine during
the period in which power vas sus-
pended, no time will be lost in ex-
tending the new west drift from
the top of the raise above the $40
foot level. This drift had penetrat-
ed the contact zone prior to the
&ower interruption and is at a suffi-
lent height above the bottom of
mine to insure it immunity from
any damage on account of water.
1t is probable hat the ore-shoot
will be exposed here within the next
few days, and if the ore maintains
it's value and volume here as in the
incline raise, it will at once be es-
tablished as a deposit of great OK
tent and value. The mine makes
comparatively little water at any
time and there is no reason to be-
lieve that n damage was caused
to any of the workings by the ac-
emulation of water during the
brief period in which the pumps
were idle.
near the north central part of the
Kewanas property, a short distance
above the main 840-foot level and
in the shale contact zone. From
the main north drift, at a point over
500 feet north of the working sta
ton, a cross-cut was driven to the
east, through a ridge of shale, and
penetrated the ~ore-channel at the
east side Of this ridge, about 200
feet from the drift. Here a short
raise was driven, exposing ore that
assayed up to $45 per ton.
In order to facilitate work on
the ore, a raise was driven farther
back in the cross-cut, about $50
feet from the drift, and at a height
OF about Is feet it entered the shale
contact zone and for some distance
followed ore varying in width from
two to four feet and assaying from
$40 to 1927 per ton. At the best
points a width of four feet gave
average assays around $50 per ton,
in gold and copper
Maintaining it's steep incline, the
raise was driven we'll into the latte
of the hanging wall, in order that
a horizontal drift from it's top should
cut the ore at a point sufficiently
high on the ridge to the west, and
far enough from the raise to prove
its extent over a considerable area.
No work has yet been done to prove
the extent of the ore to the north
and south from the raise.

RAISE WILL CUT
SANDSTONE VEIN
STRONG HOPES ENTERTAINED
OF FINDING PAY ORE in
PROPERTY

Prospects are favorable for early
developments of great interest or
the Sandstorm-Kendall Consolidated
property, where the raise from the
35O-foot level is apparently about
to penetrate the main vein. The
raise is being driven vertically from
a cross-cut driven west from the
drift, and upon penetrating the
vein the raise will be turned to
follow the incline of the latter and
eventually will continue to make a
connection with the old lease work
ings.
This raise has been driven at a
point farther south than the old
slopes of the Loftus-Davis lease, as
the ore-shoots in this territory all
rake sharply t o the south and it is
the plan of the management to pros
pect the vein thoroughly by means
of lateralS from this raise, to seek
the downward extension OF the
bonanza ore-shoot from which the
early lessees extracted a fortune
In exceedingly rich ore. 1t IS
known that some ore of commercial
grade was left in the deepest of the
old workings, which were sunk to
a depth of only about 70 feet.
