CHkFEY INCREASES
WORK AT DUNLAP

Undismayed by the break in copper,
e. s. Chafey has increased his output
from the Dunlap mine. twelve miles
east of Nina, from twelve tons to
twenty tons a day. He is working
through two tunnels which were run
in on the vein from opposite sides of
a ridge by the Tonopah Mining Com
pany. owner of the Dunlap, in the
course of development work.
From the tunnel on the right of the
ridge Chafey extended a raise to cut
the downward extension of a shoot
of rich ore that outcrops on the sur
face. This connection has been made
and a Slope started. The average
grade of the ore shipped is 6 per cent
copper. Chafey is aided in transport
ing his ore by the snow, which ena-
bles him to use sleds to get his ore
down from the mine to a good wagon
O near the base of the mountain.
The mine is at an elevation of about
$500 feet and the ground is covered
with snow that promises to remain
until spring thaws come.-lNevada
