enrichment in this entire territory.
Biologists say that a number of veins
of similar character are to be traced
over wide areas in the district, but
thus far no marked displacement
through faulting of any of these veins
has been observed. The silver vein,
first opened from the Divide shaft,
has a southeasterly trend, while the
new vein strikes northeasterly; and
the gold vein, the groupings of which
yielded the first pay ore in the dis
trict, extends almost due east.
The gold vein was penetrated about
$50 feet from the shaft by a c~rosscut
driven south on the 265-foot level. 1t
has a flatter dip than the silver veins
and its dip is north, toward the main
workings. A crosscut will be driven
to this vein on the 370-foot level.
From the point where the gold vein
was cut a drift was extended west,
showing gold ore from two to four
feet wide and assaying up to SIS per
ton. Work on this vein was halted
temporarily, owing to the desire to
push development on the 370-foot
level, and to hasten the sinking of TIE
main shaft, which is now down about
80 feet below the 370-foot station.
Ore from the Divide mine is now
being hauled by big teams to the Mac
Namara mill at Tonopah for treat
ment.-GReno Gazette.

TECHNICAL NEWS
OF DIVIDE MINE

Mining authorities generally seem
agreed that the Tonopah Divide mine,
situated six miles south of Tonopah,
is the greatest mine opened in Nevada
since the Mohawk of Goldffield, and
many believe that it is destined to
rival that famous bonanza in produc-
ton. 1t is said that the value of ore
now actually in sight in the Divide
mine is greater than that of visible
ore at any one time in the progress
of developing the Mohawk, although
some of the Mohawk ore was far rich
er than any yet found in the Divide
district.
The apparent value of the mine has
been increased measurably by the
discovery of a vein intersecting the
main silver vein at right angles, and
apparently larger and richer than
the big lode that already had estab-
lished the great wealth of the prop
erty. This vein was penetrated in
driving to the southeast, along the
footwall of the silver vein. and about
260 feet from the crosscut driven to
the latter vein from the main shaft,
at a depth of $40 feet. The drift had
been turned slightly to the east, far
Their into the vein, to follow a seam of
black ore of high value, and upon
reaching the footwall again it entered
a greatly broken area and exposed the
wall of the cross vein.
From the appearance of this wall
the new vein, like the silver vein,
stands almost vertical, with a slight
dip to the southeast, the point of dis
covery showing the footwall. A drift
was advanced along this wall and a
crosscut, at right angles to this drift,
was driven southeast, through the new
vein and back of the footwall of the
silver vein. For the first three rounds
the rock between these faces was bro
ken, giving faces gradually up to Is
feet, with an average throughout OF
over $50 per ton. Samples from a
12-foot face gave returns of 1886 per
ton across five feet and $S7 per ton
across seven feet, the car samples
giving an average of s177 per ton.
Development of this area has con-
tinued along these lines and the cross
cut has been advanced through the
new vein a distance of more than 80
feet. all in high-grade shipping ore.
A crosscut into the silver vein, from
the point of intersection of the two
veins, has progressed nine feet, show
ing an average of more than $3.50 per
ton. The ore in this area is greatly
crushed, containing seams and masses
of kaolin and quartz breccia in which
horn silver appears in particles and
sheets which are nearly pure metal.
and some of the latter an inch or
more in size.
In the opinion of mining engineers
who have examined the property late
ly, the newly-found vein is the origi-
nal or main ore channel of this imre-
date section. and the big silver vein
that has been developed heretofore is
a later assure. cutting through the
older vein. which is the source of
