The Goldfield news and weekly tribune. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1911-1947, 1919-06-14

The report of L. d. Gordon, presi-
dent and general manager of the
Round Mountain Mining company,
contained in the annual report of
the company for 1918, follows:
Since the last annual report 19 of
our lode claims have been surveyed
for patent and patent for same ap-
piled for. At the time this survey
was made it vas found expedient to
purchase three small fractional
claims aggregating some 16 acres,
and our holdings in the Round
Mountain district have been in
creased to that extent. When pat
ent is obtained for the claims above
mentioned our patented area will
have been practically doubled.
1t will be recalled that in the last
annual report mention was made of
the adoption of lode leasing policy
and it was predicted that revenue
of from $4,000 to $4,000 would be
received during the year from these
operations. AS matter of fact the
revenue from this source totaled
s19,657.24. In addition the lessees
performed 2292 feet of new work,
restored 1893 feet of levels, enabled
us to maintain our mill organization
and to keep our mine and mill
equipment in a proper state of re-
pair and preservation. They have
also opened several ore bodies of
considerable promise without any
cost to the company. This leasing
system enabled the company to OBJ
tain a very considerable revenue
during a most trying period when
labor was very difficult to obtain
and commodity prices beyond the
reach of most companies operating
low-grade gold mines. Many OF the
lessees operated in parts OF the

The drift on the 200-foot level of

250 being badly caved. No sampling
has been done on this level and none

This is the usual history of mining
districts before reaching the more
solid basis on which Divide has been
placed. During the period when
company after company was being
formed each organization provided
publicity for itself and in this man
ner the district was brought to the
attention of the public, but Divide as
a region of great possibilities for
legitimate mining has never re-
ceiyed either the class or quantity OF
advertising to which it is entitled,
in the opinion of men vitality inter-
ested in ming there.
The district is regarded as one of
unusual merit by some of the most
competent engineers of the country
who have inspected it and the day
has come when the progress of
work in the mines as a whole is of
mora. vital Importance than that OF
the individual communities. Divide
has reached the stage, and is rapidly
passing the point, where real news
cannot be handled adequately In any
manner except through an organiza-
ton formed for the purpose and
with ample finances, and it is felt
the new chamber of commerce will
supply everything desired in this re-
spect.

The crosscut on the 400-foot level
of the Simon silver-Ieaa mine has
entered the hanging wall Of the vein
after proving the orebody to be lao

erosscut exposed ore assaying SS
per cent lead, "a per cent zinc and
3S ounces silver, or more than
double the value of the material
found until this point was reached.
OF late mInIng men have given
attention to the profit to be derived
from treatment of the Simon ore at
present prices for the metals it con-
tains. On this subject DIR. A. H.
Elftman, geologist and consulting
engineer of Tonopah, recently said
in a report on the Simon.
Many ore deposits of this char
jectionable metals, such as arsenic,
antimony and bismuth, to the extent
of interfering with the treatment of
the ore. Numerous chemical tests
show ccnclusively that the Simon
ore does not contain these elements
in quantity sufficient to be noticed.
From many milling tests it is
evident that the Simon ore will be
easily treated in plant where the
zinc and lead will first be separated
and then concentrated, for smelling
After allowing deductions for min
ing, loss in separation and concen-
tration, etc.. the net profit on the
ore should be from IS to 81 per
ton at least"
Construction of a line to take
power from the Nevada-C California
power line at Thorne will be started
)in short time by. the company
This will be 5o-mile line and the
estimated cost is $4,000.
President Simon plans to use
caterpillar tractors in hauling sup
plies from Nina and to haul ma
chinery for the concentrator which
it is planned to erect after prelim'
mary experiments on the ore have
been completed. Construction of a
railroad from Nina to the mine is
also under consideration, but for
some distant time.

BUMPER CROPS
IN The TANANA
this SEASON

M, B. Summers, in charge of the
Alaska weather service, who returned
from an inspection Of special and
co-operative stations Of the weather
bureau in the upper Yukon, Tanana
and Copper River valleys, reports
having established two new stations
for the recording of daily weather
conditions, one in the Kantishna re-
gion and the other in the coal region
south of Nenana.
Mr.. Summers reports the Tanana
valley as producing bumper crops

all kinds but also of wheat, barley,
oats and hay In his opinion one OF
the remarkable examples of the agri-
cultural possibilities of that region
was a 9O-acre oat field, mature and
in shock. that will thresh 70 bushels
to the acre. The popular conception
of the requirements for successful
farming in that region is that only
on low-lying, level land, but that I'M
derneath the top soil the ground is
perpetually frozen. The farmers are
also demonstrating that good crops
can be grown on northern slopes as
we'll, one such crop this season be-
ing a fine field of wheat that had
fully matured.
The first killing frost this season
in the Interior valleys occurred on
September 1, five days later than last
year.
With the introduction of a flour
mill and the use of silos to furnish
succulent winter feed for cattle, Mr..
Summers thinks there will be no fur
Their need of the residents of Fair
banks and the creeks paying eXOr-
bitant prices for butter, canned milk
and beef, for those food products can
then be produced at home.
Mr.. Summers came out over the
Richardson road, reaching the coast
at Valdez instead of Cordova. He
reports the weather almost ideal dur
ing the journey, most of the trip in
the auto being made without an over
coat The trail was in excellent
condition over most Of the route.
However, about four miles of the
road through the Keystone canyon,
near Valdez, was washed out early
this spring and has not been repaired
and it was necessary to cover this on
foot over the mountain side. AS
result of automobiles not being able
to bridge the gap, practically all tour
list travel this season has been de-
fected to Chitina and Cordova, in
stead of Valdez, much to the disap-
pOintment of the residents and bust
