JUMBO JR. WILL
SOON BEGIN
STOPPING
:.
DRIFTS WILL EXPLORE RICH
VEIN FROM DEEP
WINZE

The excellent showing of high
SS0-foot level of the Jumbo Junior
workings has been well maintained
in the course of work during the
past week and ore is being placed
in the bins at the collar of the Vel
vet shaft for shipment to the
sampler.
The last shipment averaged about
$5S per ton and it is believed that
the ore now being hoisted will re-
turn considerably higher figure,
as the assays from the richer part
of the orebody have been ranging
from 500 to well over 5000 per
ton.
Sinking has progressed steadily
and the winze has reached a depth
of nearly SO feet on the rather flat
dip of the vein. Owing to this flat
dip it is probable that the winze
will be continued for another 20
feet, or possibly more, before later
al work is started, but it is the
plan of the management to extend
drifts both north and south on the
ore in the near future, when stop
ing will begin and production
should then be on substantial
scale. Mining men declare that this
ore is where it should be" and

KEWANAS NOW IN
SHAPE FOR
RESULTS
IMPORTANT WORK TO BE CON-
QUOTED IN NORTHERN
GROUND

A system of development work is
now being planned for the northern
part of the Kewanas property which,
in the opinion of officers of the
company and of others familiar with
the property, is destined to prove
of the greatest Importance. Earlier
work in this territory was greatly
hampered by bad air conditions,
but the new air connection on the
S40-foot level has entirely removed
this difficulty and hereafter the
miners will find these workings in
excellent condition.
In preparation for the more ex-
tended scope of work in the north,
Manager Darcy has enlarged the
main station at the bottom Of the
winze, on the S40-foot level, and
the sump has been deepened to pro-
vide larger water storage capacity
The working force has been engag-
ed in development work in the
southern part of the property and
other important work has been
planned for this territory.
1t is in the north, however, that
the most important results are ex-
pected, as ore of high grade has
been exposed here at number of
points and the first work will be to
solve the influence of the step fault
that has cut off the main orebody.
The Goldfield news and weekly tribune. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1911-1947, 1918-02-23

of excellent grade has been treated
in the company's flotation plant
recently from these workings, which
are but short distance from the
Atlanta mine, adjoining the Griz-
Ely Bear on the south. Copper
bearing ores from the deep levels
are treated with complete success
in the company's flotation plant,
while a large tonnage of mill tail
ing is being handled in the cyanide
department.
Atlanta Mines Co.
The cross-cut from the new sta
tion on the 1900-foot level, at the
bottom of the deep winze, will pro-
gress rapidly with the equipment
now in use and it is estimated that
it will penetrate the main Atlanta
vein at a distance of about $50 feet
from the winze. 1t will be contin-
ued through the vein, which on the
1750-foot level is fully 60 feet wide
in places, and the vein will then
be thoroughly explored by means
Ct drifts and raises. A point that
is destined to command much in
terest is the ore-shoot exposed on
the 1750-foot level, at the hanging
wall side of the vein, where a shall
1nu yui,
showing the best ore yet found in
the Atlanta mine. The winZe on
this ore is to be continued and later
ii is the plan to raise from the
1900-foot level for connection
with this winze.
ReOrganized Kewanas
Development work is progressing
in the southern part of the proper
ty, where at several points there
has been an encouraging showing
of pay ore. Preparations have been
completed for the important work
that is planned for the northern
territory, but Manager Darcy de-
cided to finish some exploratory
work in the south before devoting
his attention to the northern ground
Conditions in the latter, as reveal
ed in earlier operations, encourage
the belief that with present work
ing facilities the further opening
of this territory will yield impor-
tant results.
Cracker Jack Mine
The north drift on the east vein
has been showing commercial ore
for a distance of about rs feet
and a raise is now being driven Ia
pick up this ore above. Assays in
dicate that for much of the dis
tance the ore exposed in the drift
will average from SIS to $40 per
ton for an average width of two
feet. 1t is the plan of the manage
ment also to sink a winze to reach
the point. estimated at 40 feet

HEALTH BOARD PUTS BAN
ON THANKSGIVING DOINGS

States Attorney Crimson, as a
mem ber of the county board of health
draws the attention of the Democrat
to the fact that it has been reported
Jr1at plans are on foot in several
places over the county for holding
Thanksgiving oalls and celebrations
of various kids. He wants it to be
understood that the county board of
health has made an order absolutely
prohibiting al balls, celebrations,
ratfies and such like events taking
place, even if community is reason
ably free from influenza, as the
holding of dances and such gather
ings are almost sure to bring it back.
Attention is directed to the fact
that the peace celebration held in
Grand Forks was followed by a
fresh outbreak of the epidemic, in
fact in worst form than ever.
Another instance of this kind is
found when the last draft of boys
arrived at Fargo. when exactly the
same thing happened
So the board of health is deter
mined that there shall be no gather:
ings dances, or celebrations of thi
kind. Neither must there be gather
ings of people from different com
munities over this county until afte
the epidemic is absolutely. stampe
out, not only here, but all over tn
nor theastern part of the state
Dances and such gatherings will b
the last thing that will be allowe
under the regulations as laid dow
by the board OF health.
