The Prospector and His Buro---
A Stringer and What 1t Led To
(will C. Higgins in Salt Lake Mining Review

In our last ISSUE said the pros
pector to his burro, II told you about
the mining company that ran a lonG
tunnel on a mere indication of ore
when as a matter of fact. this small
fissure practically paralleled one of the
largest bodies of high grade ore ever
found In the district, the existence OF
the big bonanza vein not even being
discovered until after the operating
company had failed to find ore in pay
Ing quantity and Rad abandoned the
enterprise after spending more than a
quarter OF a million In the effort. This,
of course, is but one part of the story,
while the finding of the ore was the
other; but, the two, woven together,
was an Illustration Of how often 1t Is
that mining men are within short
distance of a fortune that some seedy-
looking prospector most likely found,
later on, with but little expenditure
and with the performance of but lit
tie work, which reminds me of the ex-
land mine few years ago.

the prospector, 'the Dreamand Min
ing company had been doing a lot of
development work out In the Wagon
Wheel Gap range and the manage
ment had not been overly successful
In his efforts to uncover the ore body
which he believed existed within the
environments Of the company's hold
ings. For two years he had been al.
work and at no time had he been able
to find more than hatful of ore;
while all of his prospecting, apparent
IN had always been done in the wrong
place and when he cut into what
seemed to be mere stringer of ore,
he would discontinue operations there
and begin anew In some other portion
OF the mine. Bob Foster was working
for the company at the time and he
could polish off the head of drill as

sides being good workman, Bob had
some few brains that he was not

always noticed how the mine SUPER
intendent had backed away when he
cut a stringer of ore in any of his
drifts, and how he Invariably started
new work in other portions of the
mine; his actions indicating that he
expected, when he did find ore, that 4
ne would break into ledge that was
as big as the new state house In Salt

ZINC CONDITION BETTER
SAYS D. C. JACKL|NG
cHAs. HAYDoN SEES PROSPER.
ITY FOR THE COPPER AND
ZINC MINERS.

Conditions in the zinc industr,
are showing some Improvement, al.
though we have had pretty hard
Jolt in the reduction in the price of
spelter The market looks more stable
now and we believe that there will be
several months of good times ahead in
the zinc business"
Inc foregoing is the opinion of d.
Z. lacking, managing director of the
Butte 4 Superior mine, who was in
Butte the other day for an inspection
OF the great zinc mine Ne was ac-
companied by Charles Hayden, head
OF the Hayden. Stone & Co, Boston
bankers From Butte they went to
Alaska to inspect the Alaska Gold
property, which is another Jacklinp
enterprise.
Hayden on Outlook.
Commenting on copper and zinc, Mr.
Hayden said:
believe we will see the copper
zinc and mining situation generally
PiOSpSlOuS lOT some time TO
come. When the war started tha
zinc business of this country faced a
shortage in smelling capacity that
sent the price soaring.
Now that difficulty has been over
come and the smelling capacity for
zine has been increased to a point
where the output of the zinc mines
can be handled.
1T Is the Increase in the smelling !
capacity that has resulted in bringing |
the price of zinc back to normal i |
DO not anticipate that zine win go
lower than its present price for some
time to come, as the demand IL good
and the United States is furnishing
the larger part of the zinc output Of
the world. F..
Copper ought to be in good no.
sition, too, for a long time ahead. No
,ne can tell how long the war in Eur
'pe win last and when It will end.
'ut the United States win be in
much stronger position after the war Z

should be conducted at the Dream
land, and he did not offer any sugges-
lions as you would have done had you
been present. On the contrary. he held
his counsel, at the same time making
10 careful study of geological condi-
lions In the mine. while, whenever oc-
casion offered he thoroughly pros
Ipected the surface of the property,
carefully noting the assuring, the diff
ferent formations, the strike and dip
of the fault planes. After year spent
In the service of the company, dur
ing which he accumulated large vol
ume of valuable information regarding
the mine. besides his salary, which he
banked In the strong box at Tom Lar
rvs bar, another seam that was min
eral bearing was encountered In one
+, Of the drifts that was being run some
distance above the main tunnel level.
When this was encountered the sup
erintendent fairly raved over his bad
luck and said 1t was his intention to
recommend to the company that the
mine be closed down, as evidently, no
ore bodies of payable size existed
within its boundary lines. That night
Foster asked for working lease on
the level In which the stringer hau
been uncovered After some argu-
ment the lease was granted although
the management considered that Bob
was making fool of himself, and
that he would surely lose out In the
lease as we'll as kissing his savings
goodbye. But Bob was not to be
easily frightened and the next day he
began work in extending the drift on
the stringer. For the first four feet
the stringer opened from a mere seam
to more than an inch In width. The
next four feet disclosed four feet of
ore At eleven feet the ore body had
widened out to fifteen feet, all of ship
ping grade, and inside of twenty feet
crosscuts disclosed the fact that the
pay shoot was forty-one feet In width
and this wonderful zone of dividend
paying rock was followed a distance
of nearly 400 feet before the vein
pinehed down to a stringer again:
and, before the expiration of the lease |
Foster took out several millions, and
he Is now looked upon as being one of |
the richest of the many bonanza kings
