SPEARHEAD HAS
IMPORTANT FIND
BIG BODY OF GOOD GRADE ORE
UNCOVERED ON LOWER
LEVEL

What gives promise of developing
into one of the most important min
eral finds made in the Goldfield Sec
tion in months-if it has not already
done so-it to be credited to the
Spearhead property. While ink
lings of this discovery have been
generally discussed for several
days, the magnitude of the find was
not fully determined until today.
The ore vein was encountered on
the 910-foot level following the
driving of crosscut. The ledge
where the vein was intersected has
been proven to a width of fully 25
feet, but the full extent of the find
cannot be determined for some time.
The ore vein proper now has a
assays that have been taken during
the past few days show values carry
ing from $40 to $50 ton in gold,
silver and copper, with the yellow
metal predominating.
The Spearhead Gold Mining COM
pany controls 600 feet on the vein
lying ahead of the present breast
of the drift, but the heading is be-
ing driven towards Lone Star
ground. In view of the fact that
there is a vast area of virgin terri
tory remaining overhead, and that
the ore shoot is exposed in the top
of the drift, and is also showing in
the bottom. it would seem that one
of the most important mineral
finds of recent weeks in the Gold
field section. had been made.
Manager Harry Bruce is bending
every energy to prove to his own
satisfaction the extent of this miner
al find. The country is somewhat
irregular and for this reason it is
impossible to determine the width
of the ledge, but there is every
reason for believing that it will be
found extending a good distance be-
yond the % feet that have already
been explored.

handled by flotation. Mr.. Hutch
inson expressed the belief that with
in a short time the plant would be

daily.
Great Bend Mine
The Great Bend Mining company,
managed by j. X. Turner as con-
sulting engineer, is being developed
in conservative manner. Announce
ment was made this week that the
drift on the 30O-foot level had been
discontinued for the present to per-
nit of connection being made with
the 160-foot level. The latter drift
must be extended to connect with

enormous body of ore that carries
values of from SIS to $40 a ton in
gold. silver and copper. and it is
proposed to treat the entire product
by flotation. On a block of ground
that has a height of 375 feet and
a length of $50 feet, a body of ore
fully five feet wide is exposed and it
is this material that will be con-
signed to the flotation plant for
treatment.
The physical condition of the
Atlanta mine shows unusually
strong and the coming weeks prom
Use to witness much greater ac-
tivity. The scope of operations will
be gradually enlarged until the pro-
duction from the property will keep
in pace with the other heavy pro-
ducers of the Goldfeld district.

Mining activity in Nevada is
reaching high ebb, and investors
are directing their attention in this
direction. Goldfield seems to be
much favored and is proving the
Mecca for capitalists who are in
search of mines in a proven district.
The activity on the stock ex-
change is the best indication that
there is something moving in a
mining way. During the past week
the demand for several Goldfield
stocks has grown rapidly and rec
ord-breaking sales have been re-
corded.
Mining men of this district ap-
pear more optimistic concerning the
future of the camp than at any
Many new finds have been announc-
ed during the past two weeks, with
the result that the production from
the whole district will shortly be
augmented.
Large development on numerous
mines has been undertaken of late
and the results of the efforts of
those men directing affairs is proof
conclusive that this section still
contains large bodies of ore that
will yield handsomely during the
coming years.
Spearhead Mine
Perhaps the most important min
eral find made within the week was
announced by the Spearhead Gold
Mining company. On the 910-foOt
level of the property a body of ore
from six to seven feet wide was un-
covered in the east drift that shows
assay values of from $40 to $50
a ton. The company controls 900
feet of ground on the vein lying
ahead of the present heading before
Lone Star territory will be penetra-
ted. This property is under the
management of Harry Bruce, one of
the best known operators of the
Goldfield section.
Kewanas Mine
NO new discoveries were TopOIIcu
during the week on the Kewanas,
although a thorough campaign of
mine exploration is going forward.
The ore vein encountered two weeks
ago in the drift extended from the
top of the 918-B raise is still hold
ing it's own and it now looks like a
discovery of permanence had been
made. A shipment will be made
in the near future and at that time
it will be possible to determine the
true metal contents.
Atlanta Mine
Development on this we'll known
property is progressing satisfactory,
but Manager A. I. Darcy is await
ing the opportunity to start ship
ments of medium grade ore to the
flotation plant of the Goldfield Con-
solidated Mines company. In the
meantime reserves are being block
ed which will insure a steady out
put of ore worth from SIS to $40
ton being treated. 1t is proposed

]. w. Hutchinson, general man
ager of the Goldfield Consolidated
Mines company, returned to Gold
field this morning after an absence
of a week at Aurora. Mr.. Hutchin-
son will leave tomorrow morning to
attend a board meeting at San
Francisco.
The flotation plant is reported to
be performing excellent work and a
high saving of values is being eff
fected. The plant has been in op-
Grafton since March l, and an aver
age of $50 tons of ore has been
treated daily.
The success that is now resulting
in the treatment of low-grade gold
copper ores assures permanency
not heretofore apparent and in view
of the fact that all difficulties for
merly existing have been removed, a
new era dawns for the Goldfield dis
trist so far as it applies to the
Consolidated properties, and indi-
rectly as it will apply to other prop
critics.
"Since the plant was put in oper-
alton on March 1st it has averaged
$50 tons per day." said MIR. Hutch
inson. "The recovery has been 80
per cent of the gold content and prac-
tically all of the copper. The diff
culties encountered during the sum-
mer have all been overcome and the
