TIN RECOVERED
FROM new FIND
DEPOSITS NEAR ISENHOOD
RANCH IN NORTHERN LAM
DER ARE VALUABLE

Last Sunday a party from town
took a trip to the Isenhood tin dis
covery, 20 miles north of Battle
..-ouIrain, and was taken owe the
ground by z. S. Brooks, one of the
owners of the claims. They found
much to interest them in this only
known occurrence of tin in Nevada,
and one of the few places where
the metal is found in the western
hemisphere.
Geologlcally, the tin is found in
seams and fracture places of a ira
chyte ridge striking east-west about
four miles long and rising to a
height of 400 feet above the valley
as the Isenhood ranch, a mile dis
tant.
Cassiterite, the dioxide ore of tin,
is the mineral found, and in a
number of spots along the course of
the ridge it shows in place, while
all along the flat bordering the
ridge and in all the gulches running
down it's sides, stream or placer tin
is found. Erosion of this trachyte
mass has been pronounced and long
continued, and it is in the detritus
which flanks it's extremities that
large quantities OF tin ore are ex-
pected to be recovered. Water fOI
this purpose, as well as for placer
ing the higher gravels along the
Lead OF the gulches, a be devel-
Oped five miles distant and piped to
,ne scene of operations.
Mining operations at present be-
ing conducted by Mr.. Brooks and
his associates consist of sinking
upon a well-defined exposure OF
cassiterite near the eastern end OF
the group of 65 claims controlled
by the partnership. Upon this
showing a shaft is now down ter
feet and has produced five tons oil
ore which was stated to run bet,
ter than 20 per cent tin. The ore
shows in the bottom of the shat
for a width of over three feet and
from among the lower grade ore
some high-grade specimens have
been taken during the past week.
West of this point ore has beer
found at a number of places, and
near the head of one of the gulches
running up into the ridge a strong
and promising occurrence of tin is
exposed in the soft and disintegrat,
cd country rock, but no work Of
consequence has yet been done on it
Below this deposit some placerins
was attempted with snow water
which ran off down the, gulch anG
as long as the water lasted a con
siderable quantity of TN was re
covered, demonstrating that with {
steady supply of water much of the
metal could be won by even the
crude s~luice-box used in the oper
alton.
1t is the intention of the owner:
to open up the different exposures
of tin before determining at what
1oint to concentrate their develop
ment work. but this plan may bt
altered by transferring part of their
ground to outside interests who
have made tentative offers for a por
ton of their holdings. u Battle

Equipment is now being assem-

Reorganized Cracker Jack company,
including a powerful electric hoist
and compressor, which are being
installed at the collar of TIE
Adams shaft. The first work will
be to explore the Columbia Noun
tain fault vein at a depth of 115
feet and to drive to the west vein
on the same level, while the shaft
will be repaired to it's present
depth of 800 feet and work at
this depth will be taken up in the

east, following the hanging wall OF
the vein. This cross-cut will be
extended to the boundary line of
the adjoining Jumbo Junior prop
erty. where development work will
be taken up by the latter company
in it's own territory, sharing the ex-
pense OF operating the Velvet shaft
and equipment, and the vein IAN he
explored by the Jumbo Extension
to excellent advantage from this
cross-cut, farther to the east.
On the same level a drift has
Geen extended to til" south, from
the cross-cut c~ornectIrg the Velv.t
shaft with the PalOverde YORK
p and connect on has Jee3
made with the drifts and Slopes
farther south in the Velvet claim,
where the rich shale contact ore
body was opened by raises from
the 1917 level. BY this n
ton a direct outlet to the Velvet
shaft has been provided and the
principal production in future from
this part of the mine will be
made through the Velvet shaft.
With this object in view, ore
bins of large capacity are now be-
ing erected at the collar of the No.
2 shaft and a spur from the rail
road will be extended to the bins.
The use of this shaft will permit
of increasing the volume of ship
ments, which will be maintained at
considerably over 100 tons daily,
and important development work,
planned long ago but held in abey-
ance by reason of the necessity for
hosting all Gre and waste through
the main shaft, will now be ex-
tended throughout a large area in
the Paloverde claim.
In the new work in the Velvet
claim, some of the most signifl-
can't results have been obtained
in prosecuting to the north on the
7SC-foot level. This cross-cut, de-
signed to prospect the territory be-
tween the shaft and the Kewanas

the main lode and has exposed ore
Of commercial grade at several
points. Assay records of the COM
pany shcw at one point four feet
of ore averaging about SIT per
ton, while at another point the
cross-cut passed through 10 feet
of lower grade material. This ore
contains copper, but in less vol
ume than that found at the deep
Ell levels,
On the 1017-foot Level the main
east cross-cut, in the shale, is be
ing advanced for the purpose of
connecting with the workings of
the Merger Mines company and with
this connection completed the work
cf both companies on their deep
levels will be greatly facilitated.
Superintendent ]. X. Turner of the
Jumbo Extension will then proceed
TO drive raises from the northeast
branch cross-cut on this level, to
explore the big assure that pene-
trated the shale and in which a
large tonnage of high-grade ore
has been stopped above this level.
