PINE GROVE MINES
TO Be REOPENED

Otto and Walter Taubert have taken
over the old Wilson gold mine at Pine
Grove, "a miles south of Ycrington.
This mine has produced over sven
million in gold bullion d lwn to til
water level. When water wa etr1 k
it was found water could not be
handled except under very heavy eX-
pensc.
The Taubcrts have decided to dTi>c
a tunnel from the north side WittI
will take care of the water and also
will be cheap mining. 1t is also iiS-
ured ont that this tunnel when cut
ting the ore shoot will give about oiO
leet of virgin ground on the dip OF the
vein and this should produce good
many millions dollars in gold bullion.
The mine is equipped with modern
machinery, including stamp mills and
concentrators. The upper workings to
water level will be thrown open to
leasers. The work will be under the
management of Walter Taubert,
