ORE SHIPMENTS CONTINUE
TO SMEL1ER FROM 6. @. D.

These four men have been oper-
ating the lease successfully since
July 10 of this year, but it was not
until after Sept. Is and after a
great deal of unproductive work
had been done in cleaning and tim
bering old workings that shipments
we're started. The first ore found
was opened in the winze and ship
ments are still being made from
this body. Ore of exceedingly high
grade was found here and shipped
at a big profit and the lessees are
now trying to discover the continua-
ton of the shoot below where it
faulted so feet down in the winze.
A drift is being driven and, while
low assays have been obtained, the
working has not yet been advanced
far enough, in the opinion of the
lessees, for the ore-shoot to be cut
and driving will be continued and

this orebody, which dips sharply so
that, if opened here, it can also be
cut through a small amount of
work on the lower levels.
The lease is on block of ground
6OOx4O0 feet and comprises practical
ly all of the Gold Bar claim and
part of the Victor claim of the G..
o. D. The lease was let for one
year and the lessees are confident
that before it's expiration their
chances for proving the c. o. d. to
be a big mine are excellent. They
have now reached the point where
fairly regular shipments are being
made and the reopening of the
high-grade orebody at a depth of
SO feet in the wfnze would mean
big profits if the ore is found of the
same grade as where it faulted.

The large-capacity pump has been
set on the concrete foundation in
the station cut in the Grandma
shaft at 500 feet and the water
pipe has been lowered into the
shaft and connected. The power
cable has also been put in place
and preparations are now being
made to put the cage in operation
in the shaft.
Development work has been con-
tinued without interruption during
the installation. of the new equip
ment and good progress is being
made in exploring the big vein at
depth. With the new equipment
all in place the Grandma will have
one of the most complete plants in
the district, ample for mining on a
broad scale at depth.
1t is the general opinion among
mining men of Goldfield that, with
the new and powerful machinery in
place and drifting started along the
shale at depth of 500 feet, the
development work that has been
conducted for many months under
direction of j. K. Turner, consulting
sulting engineer for the company
and Lou Dellinger, foreman, has
now reached a point where rea-
sonable amount of additional ex-
ploration will lead to the opening
of important orebodies. Both con-
sulting engineer and foreman have
the greatest confidence in the ter
ritory in which the company is

S. H. Brady, manager of the JEFF
ferson Canyon Gold and Silver COM
pany, operating the Kanrohat mine
in Jefferson canyon, in Nye county
states that the mine is in excellent
with the four tunnels
showing a large tonnage of high
grade milling ore. lie states that
big bodies of milling ore have been
opened at depth, giving 100 feet OF
backs on the vein.
Flotation has not been found sat

cyanide treatment plant will be in
stalled in the near future and mill
ing resumed.
The National Nevada Mining COM
pany, operating at National. in
Humboldt county, is negotiating for
the renewal of a contract for con-
tinuing the driving of a tunnel on
the property, which is now in 500
feet. The company owns seven
claims a short distance from the
National mines and in what is said
to be the same formation.
The cost of completing the tun-
mel will be high, but it is believed
the company will be amply reward
ed when ore-shoots found in an up
per tunnel have been cut.
Work is now progressing rapidly
on the Nevada Belmont at Belmont,
which is being operated by the

company has been maintained at
pretty nearly the same rate that
has prevailed since the company en-
tered into milling arrangements
with the Belmont company, but on
the other hand the production from
the Jim Butler mine has decreased.
The Belmont mine itself has been
successful in keeping its average
production at somewhere around
the 2000-ton mark, this being the
regular output for each weeks stop

Another carload of ore, assaying
about SIS, principally in copper,
was shipped few days ago from
the Hill --Ludwick Goldman-Wade
lease on the c. o. D. and a ship
ment assaying $50, principally in
gold, is now ready. Shipments have
been made at a good rate of late
and promise to be continued, as 10
tons of the gold ore will remain
after the next shipment and anoth-
er carload of the copper is broken.
AS there is only one ore-bin on the
lease, when alternate shipments of
gold and copper ore are being
made it must be cleaned with each
shipment and this, coupled with the
car shortage, has retarded produc-
tion.
The gold ore is being taken from
an ore-shoot in the winze sunk from
the 65-foot level, where ore was
first opened by the present lessees.
lulS ore Is SIlll DClh6 tohOh AAOhi
a short distance below the drift and
the orebody has not yet been cut
below this point, although drift is
being run to open it. A small
amount of work has been done in
the ore-shoot above the drift level
but only low assays have been OBJ
tanned thus far.
The lessees experience difficulty
in breaking the copper ore clean
and this lowers the value of the
product from the 200-foOt level,
from which this class of ore is be-
ing taken.
All the gold ore is being screened
and the best material sometimes
proves to be the fine and some
times the coarse material, making
necessary the taking of frequent as
says.

private monopolies, through political

1t is certain that the Alaskans. with

by importing these much required

they are now compelled to do, and
they would see to it that encourage
