involving the transfer to the Red
Hill Florence company of a con
trolling interest in the Florence
Goldfield company, Or about $780,
900 shares Of the issued total of
1850, 900 shares. The Red Hill
Florence company will pay off all
Indebtedness of the Florence com
pany and it's directorate will assume
charge of the latter's affairs. Plans
are being perfected for the opera
ton of the Florence mine on a broad
scale and the Red Hill Florence
property, upon which work has been
in progress for some time, will be
explored in a comprehensive name
on deep levels.
SandstOrm-KendalI
Development work is being con-
Quoted with energy at a depth of
about 275 feet on the Sandstone
Kendall, at a point nearly below the
old slopes which produced fortunes
in high grade ore in ~early-day leas-
ing operations. When the leaseS
expired some ore of good grade was
known to remain in these slopes and
eventually the raise from the $50
foot level will be extended to con-
meet with these slopes, but in the
meantime Manager Darcy wishes to
explore the vein below the old
workings, which attained a depth of
only about 20 feet.
Cracker Jack
At q depth of $40 feet the Cracker
Jack company, employing a large
force of miners, is driving east at
high speed to cut the main Columbia
Mountain fault vein, at a depth
where the latter is believed to form
a junction with the parallel Rabbit
Trail vein. Both of these veins have
been found to contain good ore near
the surface and all conditions point
to a good chance for finding large
bodies of shipping ore at depth.
DiamOndfield Triangle
One of the early-day favorites of
the Goldfield district, the Diamond
field Triangle company, has been re-
organized and financed, on the as
sessable stock basis, and development
work on it's property. adjoining the
Daisy and the Gold Coin claim of
the Jumbo Extension, is to be resum-
ed at once. Good ore was found on
this property and in ground ad-
joining on three sides and the new
work is to be under the direction
of j.. X. Turner.
GOldfield Merger
In the northwestern part of the
st. Ives claim of the Goldfield Mer-
ger Mines company development
work is being conducted at a depth
of 1850 feet, where a cross-cut is
being advanced into the shale. Fis-
sures extending into the shale and
containing low-grade ore have been
exposed in this work, which is being
carried forward to seek the extern
sion of the great shale contact ore
body opened several years G in the
adjoining Grizzly Bear mine of the
Coldfield Consolidated.
Silver Pick Cons.
Quartz that has the appearance
Of high-grade ore has been found
lately in the main Silver Pick work
ings, at a depth of 100 feet. Man
ager Dyer is now conducting devel-
opment work in the extreme north
ern part of the property, at a dept1
OF >S0e feet and working from the
old Won Pclenz lease shaft.
Grandma Consolidated
E.nkinc continues at a good rate
on the Grandma property and the
shaft has reached a depth of over
$40 feet Plans of the management
contemplate sinking to the shale
contact zone, but it is regarded as
highly probable hat a vein OF i'm
ro~tonee will be penetrated before
reaching the shale.
