WORLDS GREATEST
MINING DISCOVERY

What is termed by mining engineers
who have seen service in the major
ity of the mining camps of the west as
the greatest silver and gold discovery
made recently on the Divide Extension
Mining company. the extension of the
now famous Tonopah Divide mine.
The vein has been crosscut for
twenty-seven feet. with the hanging
wall nowhere in sight. The crosseut
shows high-grade ore the entire dis
tance and there is no telling the width
of the vein.
An official statement issued by Con-
sulting Engineer Hardy is enough to
convince the reader that this find is
one of tremendous magnitude and
one which will go long way in plac-
ing Divide upon the map as the home
of one of the greatest silver and gold
mines of the present age.
The Divide Extension, one of the
king bees of the mining world, now
enters the list of shippers Tonnage
to be sent to the West End mill is
not known at this time. but it will un-
questionably be heavy in view of the
fact that Tremendous amount of ore
is now available for extraction
Reports from the Tonopah Divide
mine show that the property is grow
ing bigger and richer as development
is carried forward. On the fifth level
rich ore is exposed in the drift that
has been advanced eighty feet from
the main crosscut The crosscut has
penetrated the foot-wall of the vein
which shows 1t to be thirty-five feet in
width. On the fourth level the south
east drift has been extended 430 feet.
with the heading still in ore The
northwest drift is out over 200 feet
On the third level crosscutting has
demonstrated the width of the vein
to be eighty and half feet. without
exposing the walls, and work of driv-
ing the southwest crosseut. now hav-
ing a length of forty and half feet,
will be resumed and continued to the
gold vein.
