 KINGMAN. Arizona. February l2-- General Manager George W. Long of the United Eastern mine announced Wednesday that the already famous ore body of the property had been dis closed on the bottom or new 665 foot level. to which the old No. l shaft was sunk from the 565 foot point about a month ago At the time of the an- nouncement the north crosscut on the new level had penetrated the ore body About 6 feet Manager Long added that while hhead not at that time obtained assay returns of the vein for the width it had then been exposed some of the samples taken had yield ed high values He further estimated that at least a week more would elapse before the crosscut completely intersected the ore shoot which he ex- poets to check up" in average values on the new level with those obtained on the upper levels. On the 465 and 565-foot levels the ore body. showing an average width of better than 25 feet. has been proven up for con tinuous length of $50 feet. the assays for the entire mass running from S25 to $40 per ton Taking the showing de- scribed on the two levels named as basis, 1t has been frequently estimatt- ed that the United Eastern had ore blocked out to the value of between $1O.00O.0 .000 and -22.00O.l0O. Assuming that this estimate is correct. 1t is evi- dent that the exposure of the ore body on the new level. vastly increases the potentialities of the mine. When cross cutting was started on the new level several weeks ago, Manager Long estimated that the vein would be revealed l10 feet from the shaft and passed from the footwall of the vein into the ore shoot The present 22- horse power gasoline hoist or No. 1 shaft will soon be replaced by 50 horsepower outfit. The equipment for No. shaft, now down about 40 feet and designed to go 500 feet. is expect ed to arrive on the ground within the neft few days. This equipment in cludes a 150 horsepower double-drum electric hoist and a LOCO cubic foot compressor

 Great progress is being made by the Lazy Boy management in continuing it's main two-compartment shaft from the 50 to the 500-foot level The com pany recently installed and placed in commission 40-horsepower hoist and fOur-drill compressor and since then has been workinb full tilt with three shifts of miners, gaining feet of depth every 24 hours. The bore now measures l50 feet.
 The three shifts of minery. sinking the double-compartment shaft on the Rex have passed the 200 foot and are making rapid headway despite the fact that hand steel is being used in the work In order to facilitate operations the present l5 horsepower hoist will soon be replaced by 22-horsepower outfit which is now doing duty at the old or No shaft on the United East ern. The 1S0 cubic foot compressor. also being used at present at the last named shaft, will also be moved over to the Rex and put into service. after which machine drills will he used in the place of hand labor
