Tonopah Miner: The last clean
up in September was completed last
last week at the mill of the Tono-
pah Belmont Development company
in Tonopah and resulted in the
production of 4S bars of gold and
silver bullion, weighing 88,460 ounc-
es, and 4 8 tons of concentrates. The
estimated valuatiation of the bull
lion bars is $1O6,152, and that of
the concentrates $22.5OO, making a
total estimated worth of the two
separate shipments $128,652.
The bullion output of the mill
has resulted from the treatment of
company ores. Tonopah Mining COM

Regarding iron-ore deposits in
Ormsby county, the Carson News,
published at Carson, recently had
the following to say:
There are many bodies of COM
mercial iron ore in this county, all
available for shipment by rail and
the rate on this class of ore, while
high at present, will be adjusted
after conditions are settled. The
opening of several deposits has
been carried on in the past year
and many carloads have gone for
ward. The latest property to be
placed in the shipping class is the
Yerington, in Brunswick canyon.
The largest commercial body of ore
has been developed at this point.
"A carload of ore went out yes
terday and the mining of more is
under way. This one property will
be able to supply a considerable
tonnage with further development.
Last winter the Walker-Muldoon
property shipped several cars that
netted a neat sum. The work will
be continued this winter and more
high-grade ore will be taken out. 1t
promises to be among the big indus
tries of this county.

The mill of the Silvermines Cor
poration at Hornsilver is now prac-
tically closed and the final clean
up will be made in a few days, ac-
cording to reports from Hornsilver.
On Sept IL mining was stopped
and since that time 112 tons of ore
have been milled daily. Men who
are conversant with the situation in
Hornsilver say there is good sup
ply of ore for the mill broken in the
mine and, that while the closing of
the mill will for a time be blow
to the district, it will eventually
prove the best thing that could pos
sibly occur at present, as they say
it will lead to the clearing of the
financial trouble that has made un-
settled for many months the mining
situation in the district.
The immediate cause of the sus-
pension of all operations in the Sill
vermines is said to have been can
collation. by the Southwestern Mines
company of the lease held by the
Silvermines Corporation, owing to
non-payment of royalties by the lat
ter.
While the unsettled situation in
Hornsilver, high mining costs and
shortage of men have in recent
months rapidly closed mines and
leases, no one interested in the dis
trict is discouraged and all are con-
fident that a greater Hornsilver will
arise from the present trouble.

GREAT BEND RAISING To CUT
ORE ABOVE '375.FOOT LEVEL

Two carloads of ore, assaying
from $25 to $50 a ton, have been
shipped recently from the Great
Bend and another is being hauled
to Goldfield now and will be
shipped in the next few days. Bad
roads, caused by rains, have delay
ed the hauling. Practically all the
ore is being mined in the 1O3-A
stope above the 160-foot level.
Drifting on the 375-foot level
has been stopped temporarily and u
raise is being driven to open ore
found in a winze from the level
above. The raise is now being
driven in low-grade material and it
is expected shipping ore will be cut
in a short time, when, with ore ex-
posed in two places, shipments may
be increased. In addition to these
two points, there is a full face OF
$40 ore showing above the 160-foot
level in which no work has been
done.
Shipments are being made to the
Western Ore Purchasing cOmpany's
sampler at HaZen.
While enough ore is exposed at
present in the mine to assure a
continuation of shipments, the work
also is exposing millinggrade ore,
a large tonnage of which has been
blocked out since the present man
agement started operations. This
ore will eventually be treated in a
mill now on the ground which the
company plans to remodel and en-

chinery has passed. This ore, all
exposed above the 375-foot level, is
we'll fitted for treatment by the cy
anide process and is blocked out on
one or all of the three upper levels
for a distance of nearly 1000 feet.
The drift on the 375-foot, or
lowest level being worked, is fol-
lowing the main vein running
through the property and where the
raise is now being driven has
reached a point under the first of
the east-dipping ore-shoots that pro-
duced large tonnage of shipping
ore on the upper levels. The driv-
ing of this drift has been under way
for some time and excellent prog
ress was made in reaching the pres
ent point, the ground being solid.
With this drift now entering the
ore-bearing territory, giving
greatly increased stopping area, the
condition of the mine is regarded
as being excellent and profitable
operations for a long period are
considered to be assured.
The last report of mine conditions
by j. K. Turner, consulting engi-
neer for the company, covered the
period from Feb. |, 1916, to April
/, 1918, and showed gross pro-
duction if over $4,000 for the 90
month period Since this report was
ment work has been done, resulting
in the Great Bend being placed in
the best physical condition of it's
history, in the opinion of mining
men.

BIG REVENUE FROM DUMP ORES

ores put through the mill in connec-
ton with the product from the
slopes and underground development
workings before the company en-
tered into it's agreement with the
Tonopah Belmont Development COM
pany for the treatment of the latter
product.
The old dumps are rapidly being
cleaned up, and it is expected that
the next two or three weeks will
see the last of the second-class ore,
which was accumulated in such
dumps in previous years, on it's way
to the mill for reduction and treat
ment. Underground, however, there
is still quite a tonnage left in the
various slopes, and it is not likely
that the company will have these
producing areas cleaned up for
some months.

in dumps is available for treatment
by modern processes and a COM

ton of a large mill to treat these
dumps and failing from the old
mills and arrastras.
A raise is now being driven in
the Austin Dakota mine at Austin
in high-grade ore. Charles F.
Littrell, manager for the company,
has made some shipments from the
raise and it is said the mine will
soon be on a paying basis. A large
amount has been spent in develop
ing the mine.
Thirty-two leases are operating
on the Sunnyside mine at Round
Mountain, according to information
from there, and a number are ship
ping. 1t is said that the present
work in the Sunnyside will mean
much for Round Mountain and that
the ore production will show con-
stant increase in future.
The motors have been installed
in the new mill of the Rochester
Combined Mines company at Pack
ard and it is expected milling opera
tions will start in a short time.
Nearly all the mine workings are
idle, awaiting the starting of the
mill, as the storage and mill bins
have been filled to capacity.

tain that with this cleared the diff

orators have been laboring will have
been disposed of, leading to mining
on a broader scale than ever before.
The Hornsilver district has al
ways been regarded by mining men
as holding great possibilities and it
is the general opinion that a num-
ber of big mines will be opened
there in addition to the Silvermines
when the receivership has been
closed and normal conditions return
to the mining industry in general.
Only few months ago Hornsil-

mining districts in the state, with
