DIVIDE OPENS RICH ORE
IN FOURTH LEVEL DRIFT
FULL FACE ASSAYS $269.1O THIRTY FEET SOUTHEAST OF
CROSSCUT FOOTWAIL NOT FOUND ON FOURTH
LEVEL CROSSCUT Is FEET IN VEIN-A. l. DARCY
MAKES IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT.
Mine car samples of

10 feet. Mine car samples of
ore bcing broken here give assay
returns of over $50 per ton, 46
mine cars yesterday averaging $50
per ton.
The ore-shoot on this level Is
420 feet long, extending 70 feet
northwest from the crosscut from
the shaft and $50 feet southeast
from the crosscut. The width OF
the vein on this level varies from
25 to over 80 feet. The southeast
drift is still in ore. A raise from
the third level has been advanced
40 feet in ore, according to sam
pies from mine cars, assaying $40
per ton. This raise will break
into the second level at point
where ore assaying $5S per ton
has been opened for a width of 80
feet.
These figures prove that. there
will be opened in the Divide mine
one of the greatest stopping areas in
the history of mining, If the ore
continues strong on the level on
which the discovery was made
yesterday. The main shaft has
been sunk rs feet below the fourth
level, or $50 feet from the sur
face and with another rs feet of
depth a crosscut will again be
started toward the vein.
The huge vein cut yesterday in
the Divide is known as the "silver
vein," and is the center of attrac-
tion, but lying far to the south
of this is the gold vein," forgot
ten by the public, but not by the
management, and it is planned to
further explore this on the fourth
level. The silver vein strikes
southeast and the gold vein almost
due east. This vein was entered
by crosscut driven $50 feet south
from the shaft on the SECOND level
and ore assaying as high as $50
per ton was opened in a drift driv-
en- a short distance east. At this
depth the gold vein was found en-
cased in the upper rhyolite. or

GREAT BEND

The drift on the bottom level of
the Great Bend is being continued
east under the slopes on the 236-
foot level This drift is consider
ably over 200 feet long and an
additional 200 feet will bring the
face under the first of the large
ore-shoots opened on the level
above. A short time ago work was
discontinued in 2 long raise under
smaller ore-shoot opened on the
236-foot level after bodies of ore
of milling grade had been opened
without exposing shipping ore. A
drift has been advanced 100 feet
east from lisa raise above the
16O-foot level and good assays are
being secured at this point.

Development CO. ANNOUNCES MILLING PLANS

900 tons per month, there would
be no difficulty in the treatment
of the ore.
LAS the ores of the Combination
mine ard particularly amenable
to the cyanide treatment, 1t is pro-
posed to give the ore a simple cy-
anide treatment and do away with
some of the processes in vogue at
the Consolidated mill, such as con-
centrate treatment, ETC., thus
cutting the cost as low as possible.
Before milling operations are
started there will be some neces-
sary changes and repairs at the
mill, which will require an expen-
diture of about $4,000, therefore
the estimated expenditure to put
the proposition on paying basis
would be $4,000. With the cheap
mining method at the mine and a
simple cyanide treatment at the
mill, it will be profitable to han
die ores of a value as low as 50
per ton, with a value in excess of
So per ton and a tonange of ap-
100000 tons the un-
detaking should show a profit of
81, 900, 900, or a net profit of $1.20
per share for the entire capitaliza-
tion of the company"
The Goldfield news and weekly tribune. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1911-1947, 1919-03-22

The annual report of the Gold
field Consolidated Mines company,
issued yesterday, shows that during
1918 the company treated 94,654
tons of ore having a gross value of
$1,065,3S1. OF this amount, $921,-
514 was recovered. In addition,
164,121 tons of failing was treat
ed, from which $116,S04 was re-
covered From interest, royalties
and similar sources the company
received $24,S11. Operating costs,
including sums paid to lessees, to-
tailed $1,059.696. showing a net
realization of $3433.
Development work amounted to
484S feet, performed at a cost of
$6.72 per foot.
Efforts to treat mine dumps we're
not profitable. During the year
2422 tons of dump ore, averaging
sass per ton, was treated by flota-
ton, resulting in a slight loss.
The failing treatment account for
two. years shows the following:
Total tons treated, 24O,715;
gross value, $3O6,270;. value per
ton, $1.27; total recovered value,
[ per cent, $176,495; recovered
value per ton, $0.7S; total costs,
s140.509; costs per ton, $0.59; to-
tai operating profit, $35,9S6; op-
Grating profit per ton, $0.14.
The above cost bears no part of
spperintendence, refining or mar
keting charges. During the year
the costs have increased to $0.70,
or equal to the recovered value,

Last night A. /. Darcy, consult
ing engineer for the Tonopah Di-
vide mine, announced that at a dis
tance of 80 feet southeast of the
main crosscut from the shaft on
the fourth, or lowest, level, a full
face of ore assaying $269.1O had
been exposed in the drift. The
material contained 243.9 ounces
silver and s.25 ounces gold. The
crosscut, according to Mr.. Darcy,
has been extended 25 feet into the
vein from the hanging-wall with
out disclosing the foot-wall, low
grade ore being found.
This announcement set at rest
many rumors that had been circu-
lated regarding the progress OF
work on this level and also served
to demonstrate that between Gold
field and -Tonopah there exists a
young but husky Comstock that
bids fair to equal, if not some day
surpass, the once-great district to
the north that startled the world
as Divide is now startling men
wherever mining is talked.
There is at times a dramatic
side to mining, and that side was
uppermost when it became known
that not only ore, but high-grade
ore, had been found at the north
western extremity of the ore-shoot,
where it could least be expected.
The news came after over week
of uncertainty during which no an
nouncement of the progress of
work on this level was made by
the management, but after it had
been well established that the
crcss-cut had opened only low
grade material on entering the
vein. -
In announcing the discovery. Mr..
Darcy also made interesting state
ments regarding other work in the
mine.
On the third level, at the point
where a great zone OF enrichment
was found on Dec. 80 of last year,
there Is a sill so feet long, 90 feet
wide and of an average height OF

ing northwest along the footwall
of the quartz mass, at a distance
of over $50 feet from the east
crosscut. This work is being done
to cut a cross vein in which as
says of $14 per ton were obtained
in the sump crosscut, driven west
The cross vein trends northeast,
and If it is not found within a
short distance another drift will be
started from the shaft to cut the
vein closed to where 1t was opened
in the sump crosscut. This work
is at a depth of 815 feet.

determine the tonnage that will re-
suit. Edwards and Woodward, in
the Combination, have secured as
says of over 10 ounces in gold as
a result of their work, and O'Dan-
iel and Szobo, working at depth
of 800 feet in the Combination.
under the old Combination mill
after only three weeks work, have
opened three feet of $50 ore from
which a carload shipment has been
made and a seam of erratic value
from which 13, IA and IS ounces
in gold have been secured. This
lease extends from depth of 3O'
feet to the surface and no work had
been done previously in the ore
shoots the lessees are now open
ing.
What is considered the most inn
portant find made since the De-
velopment company started letting
leases is the one made recently in
the McCarthy-Jakowatz lease on
the Mohawk No. claim, where
four feet of ore assaying $40 per
ton has been exposed in shaft
sunk 65 feet from the surface by
the lessees. The ore was found
in the shaft and 1t is believed the
chances are excellent for the find
developing into an important ore
body.
The Narcotic and Petrucci lease
in the Mohawk, at the 600, or bot
tom level. has shipped two car
loads of ore and a face of material
