 A review of the mining industry in the county shows that there is con

 G. J. McCabe and Bruce Doredor have just completed the installation of a sixty horse power boiler, a com pressor and several sets of air drills on their properties in Montezuma canyon and are now in a position to do some extensive development work. The property they are at work upon is a lead silver proPosition and prom ises to develop into one of the best groups in that section of the country.
 W Ol NlOhlCLuild On Cli eAiN gold properties of Woolf, Kelly Nor gan. Jones, Bauer and others is pro gressing. They are all doing develop ment work on their respective claims and some of them have given options on their properties to Colorado capital ists.
 The Kelly Brothers, James and Will, have begun the assessment work and development work on the new lungs ten strike that they made at the entrance of Miller canyon. The ore was found in the big dyke that runs across the canyon near what was formerly known as the Hollensteen place" and has been run over by of people in the past thirty years and no attention was paid to 1t as it was thought to be a barren vel low stained quartz. It had been in a number of places by hundreds of prospectors who had it tested for gold but no values were ever found. The ledge can be traced across the mountain for nearly a mile and in some places is from thirty 10 forty feet wide.
 The tungsten here is found in the form of scheelite and is found in crystals in the quartz. The Kelly brothers have the largest portion or the ledge Samples tested of the ore show that they carry commercial values but it will be necessary to install a concentrator on the ground to make the property a paying one. During the past week James Prescott eastern parties, has 1 been making a thorough examination of the ledge, taking samples, etc, | with a view of taking an option on the group. Other parties have also been on the ground and looked over | the field This is one of the first I strikes that has been made in the | country where the tungsten has been | found in the form of the scheelite | crystals and development may open up the field as one of the largest in the state.
