BRADY CONFIDENT
OF S|LvER'S
FUTURE
NINE OPERATOR RETURNS FROM
CONFERENCE ON PRICE
FIXING

S. II. Brady, manager for the Sill
vermines Corporation, has been in
Gcldfield this week, following his
return from Washington, d. c.,
wnere in company with Governor
Bowie, Whitman Symmes and other
representatives of Nevada silver
producers, he conferred with officials
OF the treasury department and with
Raymond Baker, director of the
mint, regarding the governments
proposal to fix price for silver.
Mr.. Brady returned confident that
any action taken by the government
will not be prejudicial to the min
,ng interests of Nevada and other
mining states.
Mr.. Brady secuted the idea, voiced
recently by a prominent California
mining engineer, that the govern
nlent might adopt measures which
would result in curtailing the oper-
ations of gold mines, on the ground
that gold is a non-essential in the
conduct of the war. He cited the fact
that the British government is now
subsidizing the gold mines of South
Africa to such an extent that the
gold from these mines is costing
England nearly $50 per ounce, and
that gold must continue to be re-
garded as necessity in maintain
ing the credit of the country.
Following a visit of inspection to
the property of the Silvermines Cor
poration at Hornsilver. Mr.. Brady
said that both mine and mill are
in excellent condition. The addi-
tional classifier will be installed and
in operation within a few days,
when the plant will be treating from
12a to $50 tons of ore daily, with a
recovery of over 93 per cent of the
n.o,allic content of the ore.
In the mine a large amount of

Manager J. w. Hutchinson of the
Coldfield Consolidated Mines COM
pany has prepared and submitted
to President Wingfield his final
report of the company's operations
for the month of October, showing
that the net earnings of the COM
pany for the month were $40, ,S44.-
OF, a sum considerably in excess of
the average for the past few months.
The total of ore from the mines,
treated in the company's combined
f;otation and cyanide plant, was
$1,000 tons, which yielded net
profit of $15,034.25.
The report contains the first au-
thentic figures setting forth the re-
suits of treating the mill tailings
by cyanidation. By this process the
company treated in October 1897
tons of failing, securing a net reali-
zation of $5,S0O.S2. The usual
large amount of development work
in new territory was performed on
company account, the total for the
month having been 1928 linear

JUMBO JUNIOR
HAS RICH ORE
MATERIAL FOUND
IN SINKING NEW
WINZE

Reports of new discovery of
promise in the property of the Jum-
DO Junior company have aroused
Eeen interest here within the past
few days. Authentic information
is to the effect that the new ore
was exposed in sinking winze from
the main drift on the SS0-foot
level, within the company's own
ground and near the hanging wall
side of the big vein. Assays of the
ore. averaging Is inches in width,
have run as high as $50 per ton
in gold, silver and copper.
Up to the present time the ore
body has not been developed suffi-
GENTLY to determine it's extent, as it
las been followed on it's trend for
only a short distance, but some ore
of good shipping grade is being
saved in the progress of work here.
Tho high silver content of this ore
is an interesting feature of the new
discovery.
Working conditions in the Jumbo
Junior mine will be greatly improv-
ed within a few days by completing
the connection between the com
pany's northern workings, in ground
leased from the Kewanas company,
with the main south drift of the
kewanas. This will afford good
ventilation to both mines and will
enable both companies to carry
forward more extended development
work that has been planned.

CRACKER JACK IS
PROSPECTING
BIG AREA
- ED WITH GOOD RE-
SUITS

Development work in new terri
tory is being carried on actively at
two points on the 32O-foot level of
the Reorganized Cracker Jack COM
pany's main property, approximately
620 and $40 feet east of the main
shaft, and at both these points the
work is opening up veins of large
size and of good appearance. Still
the shaft, raise has been driven to
prospect for vein that crops east
of the main vein, but this work has
been suspended for the time being,
in order to devote all energies to
exploring the two promising veins
farther west.
About 600 feet east of the shaft
the cross-cut revealed contact be-
tween two distinct forms of andesite
and a short distance beyond this
point the crosscut exposed a fault
of apparently great extent, forming
a well-defined fissure extending
south of east. This fault appears to
mark the course of the main Colum-
bia Mountain fault vein in which, a
short distance farther west, drift
was advanced to the south, nearer
the hanging wall, exposing low-grade
ore carrying gold, silver, copper and
zinc.
Fault influences in this territory
presented a rather complex problem,
which is being gradually worked out
and appears now to have been solv-
ed. From the main cross-cut, a
short distance west of the fault, a
branch cross-cut has been driven
northeast to the vein and has just
penetrated the wall, showing quartz
that yields most encouraging assays
in gold and copper, with some sill
yer and traces of zinc. The cross
cut will be continued through the

RED HILL FLORENCE GO. IN
LINE FOR NOTABLE
DEVELOPMENTS

Prospects for the success of the
work now in progress on the prop
erty of the Red Hill Florence Min
ing company have improved meas
urably of late and apparently there
is good reason to expect results of
definite value within a short time,
particularly in the direction of open
ing ore-shoots that have been work
ed in adjoining territory and that,
from all indications, must extend
into Red Hill Florence ground.
Work that has this object in view is
now making rapid headway on the
500-foot level and on intermediate
levels above this point

as follows:
The main shaft, originally sunk
vertically to a depth of 500 feet, was

ing February of this year, to be COM
pletely caved and filled. This shaft
has been retimbered, double COM

cross-cuts and raises. The new
work has been devoted to prospect
ing the vein on the 5O0-foot level
with drifts and cross-cuts, and above
that level with raises and intermedi-
ate drifts.
''The vein has been proven to be
more than 10 feet wide, though
present development shows the
greater tonnage exposed to be below
commercial value. However, a con-
sierable quantity of material assay
ing from Sc to $12 in gold per ton
has been found, and in one raise for
distance of 20 feet, 12-inch
streak of ore in the vein gives av-
erage assays of from SIC to $54
gold per ton. Work will continue
along these ore occurrences to the
point of greater mineral concentra-
ton.

RICH C|NNABAR
ORE EXTRACTED
NEW DISCOVERY SAID TO BE
ONE OF RICHEST
KNOWN

High-grade cinnabar ore is being
mined by the Mount Montgomery
Mercury company, from property
situated near the summit of the
White Mountains, near Mount Mont
gomery station, on the narrow-gauge
railroad extending from Tonopah
Junction into California. Eleven
sacks of selected ore, shipped to the
plant of the Belleville Tailings COM
pany for a test run, is said to have
shown an average of 19 per cent mer-
curry, the II sacks yielding over
500 worth of quicksilver.
Reports from the property indi-
cate that the ore is present in large
bodies of uniformly good grade. The
property was acquired about year
ago by Fred C. Beedle, a well-known
mining man and metallurgist, who
purchased it from the discoverer
John Morris, and at once began a
thorough system of development
work that has resulted in complet-
ing several hundred feet of tunnels
and drifts, proving up the ore-chan-
mel for a length of 400 feet and
blocking out substantial tonnage

Materials for the construction of
plant to treat the cinnabar ore,
including two retorts, friedrich and
other essentials, have Deen delivered

Mining operations continue on a
broad scale in the Goldfield district
and although the world war has
brought far higher prices for mine
supplies and has for the time being
wrought havoc with market values
of mining stocks, it has not appreci-
ably curtailed the scope of opera
tions here. On the contrary, the
past few months have been marked
by the beginning of new enterprises
involving exploration at great depth
and there are good prospects that
local companies that have long been
idle will resume active development
work during the present winter.
Production of ore and the ship
ment of mill products for treatment
by the smelters have been to some
extent hampered by war conditions.
The abnormal demand for some of
the baser metals, with mounting
wartime prices, has resulted in a
flood of these products being shipped
to the custom smelters of the coun-
try, overtaxing their capacity and
causing a congestion that has COM
PEELED the ore-buying concerns to re-
fuse nearly all contracts for future
delivery of ores and mill products.
This condition has affected in par
ticular the large reduction plants
that are dependent upon the smelters
for the treatment of concentrates. 1t
explains the failure of Goldfield COM
panies to proceed with the treatment
by flotation of the large quantities
of available copper-gold exposed in
the mines here, although this ore
has proved to be an ideal product for
treatment by the flotation process.
The ore is in sight, facilities for it's
concentration can be made available,
but under existing conditions it is
impossible to market this product in
sufficient volume to warrant further
large concentrating equipment.
Deep mining projects are being
carried forward with all possible
speed and to insure the best results
in this work equipment of the most
approved type and of the highest de-
gree of efficiency has been installed.
The most important undertaking of
this character is generally believed
to be that of the Atlanta company,
which is sinking a large winze to
reach the 200O-foot level and which

GOOD RESULTS FROM
OCTOBER WORK

hiener than formerly, reflecting in
marked degree the advance in all
kinds of mine supplies. War con-
ditlons have affected every article
and commodity used by the mining
companies, from drill steel to cya-
hide, and as a consequence all oper-
ating mines are under far heavier
burden of expense than they were in
times of peace. Some of the sup
plies that are used in large quanti-
ties have more than doubled in
price, but the highest degree of
economy is enforced in every de-
partment and in view of the COM
pick character of the company's S
ores, costs are still relatively low.
Conditions in the company's var
ious mines are shown by the report
to be satisfactory, with ore of ex-
ceIlent grade for local treatment
coming in large quantities from the
Mohawk, Laguna, Clermont and
Grizzly Bear mines. Developments
in the last named mine are of par
ticular interest, in proving up large
bodies of gold-copper ore of milling
grade at widely separated points and
at great depth.
Leasing operations in Consolidat-
cd territory are proving highly pro-
fitable, both to the lessees and to
the company. The ore recovered by
lessees could not be mined profi-
tably by the company, as the first
requirement in company operations
is tonnage The lessees, working
for themselves, are able to save
snail quantities of high-grade ore,
while rejecting all waste and low

almost entirely confined to the min
ing of small seams of good ore
