To Whom II May Concern;

less than II mills, and have located
and worked many mining properties.
I was one Of the first TO 70 to the
Miami district, and during the early
days Of the present development
boom secured the lease to the forty
acres ID section 80 or which the
Miami Metal Company o is going
TO erect it's first mill.

over the whole ground carefully, and
picked II a. the most promising In
the whole Century field, and con-
slider II fully az good as the acreage
on which the Montreal, or the I'm
derwriters, the WEIGH, the Admiral
ty or the Ramsge mines, the giants
Of the Miami district which sur
round our property.
After having devoted nearly two
years myself in developing this
lease, and having proved the pres
ence Of rich ore, l found II necessary
TO seek financial backing 10 com-
plete the work and conduct mining
operations on q large seals, The
Miami Metal company has under
taken to do this, and, In accordance
with my conviction in the richness
OF this lease, l have invested every
available dollar Of my own In Miami

This One Mill Alone Would Earn
Company From 100 to 3OO%

Assuming that dirt from our mine runs no better than the average
OF 86S percent recovery Of the ore on our dump, our first 4O-ton mill
would show earning capacity as follows:
400 tons at 85 percent recovery ............A $40 tons
Loss in recovery by present mining method. u. ,S2
Daily net recovery ............... 28 tons
With ore in this district bearing about q percent lead and rs per
cent tnc, a total Of $l944 worth Of lead and zinc at current market
prices would be recovered Allowing the liberal figure of s. a ton for
milling royalty and overhead expenses on 400 tons mined a day, which
would be $500 a day, this would leave net earnings Of $,l44 a day For
800 working days a year, this would be $A4200, or more than $50 per-
cent profit on the entire authorized capitalization Of the company, with
the mill working on single shift only. As the mill probably like most
other mills, will be worked double shift, the potential earning capacity
OF the company from thi, one mill alone will be 800 perccpt per annum
on its entire authorized capital, which is 100000.

The lease on which the mill is to be erected is one Of two held By
the company in the Century field. II is surrounded by some OF the
greatest OF Miamis producers, such as, the Montreal mine, which pro-
duces from 10000 TO 100000 lead a week; the Admiralty mines, turning
in from 10000 to 100000 pounds a week; the WEIGH mines, the Under
writers and the Ramage-al in sections adjoining, and the Lucky En-
tension mine, which bounds our property on the north.
