SUNSET DRIFTS
OPEN GOOD ORE
DEEPER LEVELS OF DENVER
WORKINGS MAKE GOOD
SHOWING

Reports that are gratifying to the
stockholders have been coming from
the property of the Sunset Mining d
Development company, operating the
old Tramp Consolidated, Sunset and
Denver Bullfrog properties in the
Bullfrog district, near Rhyolite.
Since the new system OF develop
work was begun good progress has
been made in opening up the deep
err levels of the Denver claim and
the results obtained here have been
of the first Importance.
Prior to the beginning of this
work the company had performed
large amount of work in other
parts of it's big property and had
placed in sight large quantities of
low-grade free-milling gold ore,
which was treated at exceedingly
low cost in the company's reduction
plant. The necessity was recogniz-
ed, however. for developing addi-
tional orebodies, of sufficiently good
grade to sweeten the leaner ma
terial, and this has been accom-
plished in recent work.

POWDER RULING
NOW IN FORCE
ALBERT BURCH is AMONG M
PERTS CONSULTED ON
MEASURE

Machinery for the enforcement OF
the recently promulgated order OF
the government dealing with the
handling of explosives, particularly
ty mining operators, has been per-
fected by enlisting the aid and coun-
Sc! of prominent mining men with
the result that Goldfield operators,
acting as a unit, have now adopted
measures insuring the greatest de-
gree of safety in issuing and hand
ling blasting materials.
Albert Burch, former general
manager for the Goldfield Consoli-
dated Mines company, was called
upon recently to advise with govern
ment officials and following his rec
concentrations the director of the
bureau of mines, who is charged
with the administration of the Or
der, has devised methods of hand
ling explosives which the mining
companies have found to be highly
advantageous. 1t is said that the
methods adopted here will insure
the utmost degree of safety, while
causing no inconvenience of hard
ship to employees of the mines.

OPENING ST0PE
IN GREAT BEND
EAST DRIFT ON LOWER LENEI
NEAR LOCKHART
SHAFT

Ore of excellent shipping grade is
being broken in the 214-A raise OF
the Great Bend, where the Ore-shoot
was picked up after driving short
CT 1oss-cut at a point where fault
appeared in the vein The ore
shoot was first opened by the east
drift on the 160-foot level, where
the main stope was started, and a
considerable quantity of shipping
ole of good grade has been extract
eo from this stope. Ore OF similar
character was extracted above this
level lust east of the main stope.
At the 3O0-foot level raise was
driven to pick up the downward
continuation of this ore and the
sLcot was exposed few feet above
the lower level Raising from this
point has shown the ore to be con-
tinuous to the 160-foot level, with
the exception of the short break at
the point where the vein is faulted,
lust below the 100 level, and from
this level the ore has been followed
over 100 feet upward on this dip
of the vein.
From the top of this stope a
raise is being continued at right
angles to the dip of the vein, and
at a point some 80 feet higher it is

CRACKER JACK TO
EXPLORE ITS
NEW vein
GOOD QUARTZ SHOWING IN
DRIFT STARTED TO
NORTH

Late developments in the property
of the Reorganized Cracker Jack
Mining company have been of more
than passing interest, in view of the
discovery of a vein of good appear
ance, in virgin territory. The long
east cross-cut on the 320-foot level
cut through this vein, but at this
point it appeared to be of no parti-
cular importance and no attempt
was made at the time to explore it..
Recently a drift was started to
the north on this vein, at a point
some distance east of the main or
Columbia Mountain fault vein, and
the newly opened fissure opened to
a quartz zone of considerable width,
yielding most encouraging assays in
gold and copper. The drift is being
continued and another will be ex-
tended south on the vein, while
raises will be driven to further ex-
plore it above this level.
Near the eastern extremity of the
main cross-cut on the 320-foot level
a raise has been driven for some
distance in an effort to locate the
east or Rabbit Trail vein, which has
been prospected to some extent at
the surface and has shown encour-
aging condition here. AS a result
of indications that this vein ten
ed at depth, it was decide, ex-
tend an incline raise for the foot
wall, but while this raise has shown
broken, oxidized material, indicative
of the neal pl loAinlcy of vein or
fissure in the country rock, the
raise has as yet failed to expose the
vein and it will be sought by ex-
tending the cross-cut and raise.
Drifts extended north and south
OF the cross-cut, following the trend
OF the big Columbia Mountain fault
vein, exposed large bodies of low
grade ore, carrying gold, silver, cop
per and zinc, but this ore was OF
too low a grade to market profitably
under present conditions. On the
120-foot level considerable
amount of development work was
pc: :formed in this vein, resulting in
the placing in sight of substantial
tonnage of good mill ore, together
with many seams of ore of shipping
grade. The present work is design
Ell chiefly to open up the mine in
a manner that will permit of the
more intensive prospecting of the
various veins and ore-channels.

efforts, can make a good profit by
saving small quantities of good ore
until they have made up shipment.
Operations of the company are on
the usual large scale and substan-
tial tonnage is going daily to the
big mill. Development work is be-
ing extended on deep levels, par
ticularly in the Grizzly Bear mine.
Atlanta Mines Co.
OF greater interest than any other
work in the Goldfield district in the
immediate future will be the OPEN
ing of the great Atlanta vein at far
greater depth than has been attain
ed by development work elsewhere
in southern Nevada. With his object
in view a winze is being sunk from
the 175O-foot level and cross-cuts
will be driven from this winze to ex-
plore the vein on the 1900 and 1000
foot levels. 1t is now estimated
that the cross-cut on the 1900-foot
level will be well under way before
the end of the current month and
mining men generally have the ut
most faith in the success of this
I work, particularly when raises are
driven from this cross-cut to explore
the point where the main vein and
the west vein form a junction, ap-
parently a short distance above the
19OO-foot level. The new sinking
pump is now in commission and
rapid progress will be made in sink
ing from this time forward
Jumbo Extension
Work has continued without in
te-ruption in the winze that is being
sunk from the 1017-fOot level, fol-
lowing down on the rather flat dip
of the main vein, and many seams
of good ore have been exposed in
this work and in the short drift ex-
tended north from point about 70
feet down in the winZe. Another
rection, from a lower level, and 9TH
er drifts will be extended at inter-
walls in the course of sinking to thor
