CROSCUTT|NC FOR
 VEIN ON THE MOSS

D The crosscut from the 220 level of the Moss mine has passed through the fault and it is understood that the heading is now close to the vein, which is believed to contain the old ore shoot. The Moss produced a consid- erable tonfaese9f rich ore many years ago and it is our belief that when the vein is again picked up one of the great producers of the country will be brought in. ...-.r
 From the old crosscut tunnel was taken some of the most beautiful spec iments of rose quartz and gold that was ever found in a mine and much of jewelry made on the coast in early days from gold quartz was taken from the Moss. An old mill at Hardyville handled a large tonnage from the mine, the late Capt. Dahlgren operat- ing the property.

CORRECTING AN
 ERROR

A few weeks ago the Miner carried an article on the engineering work that R. S. Billings had in hand cov- ering the Daisell, Rural and Golden Star properties, in which the state ment was made that he would work ! out the fault in the Daisell. As this fault has been fully exploited by w. Wv. Widdowson and the vein picked up below the faulted area, it will be seen |that the only engineering necessary
 - this property is the mapping of the | ore bodies for the purpose of further ling the development of the ore shoots. The Daisell has good vein, in fact the vein from the surface is one of the most symetrical in the district and carries good pay ore from the grass roots. After being taken over by the Daisell company the work of picking (up the faulted vein was undertaken
 and within a short time it was opened
 on the 1S0 level and later on the 30O
 level. With further depth we believe |this property will be one of the large
 goducers of the district.

KATHERINE MOHAWK
 KATHERINE SECTION
 BECOMING ACTIVE

The Katherine Mohawk Mining company has secured permit from the California. Corporation Cornmis- sion for the sale of 100000 shares of its treasury stock, which it purposes placing on the market for the purpose of financing its treasury.
 The company has one of the most important group of mining claims in the Katherine section, the mines car rying good outcrops through large part of its area. L. H. Foster, who made survey of the ground for the company, in letter to the manage ment, is quoted as saying that a strong vein cuts through claims num- lber 5 and 8 that run direct to the working on the main Katherine vein. This vein is large and we'll defined end is only distant from the Katherine 600 feet. It is in these outcrops that the ore bodies of the Kath- crime section is found. Especially true is this of the Gold Chain, the Sunbeam, Roadside, Revenue, and the Katherine and Pyramid. The com pany purpose development on this main feeder and expect to have it's machinery ready for exploration with in a short time.
 The Katherine, which predecates the ore bodies of the surrounding district, has reached 400 feet in depth and has been opened 1400 feet through the ore shoot. This shoot averages above 33 feet wide and carries mill values throughout. It is one of the most po- tential ore bodies ever opened in the state, especially in gold property. A visit through the property will con vince the most cold-blooded engineer in the land that this property is one off the great veins of the Pacific coast.
 The development of the close M property is important and we believe will result in the opening of another good mine. The Katherine Mohawk is situated in the same position, or closely thereto, to the Tom Reed and United Eastern, and it is possible that the development proposed will bring in as potential an ore body as that developed in the Eastern in 1916. The men at the head of affairs are work ing with view to the development of a mine, not the exploitation of the shareholders, and they have a big chance to bring a real producer in.
 Frank T. Torpey, of San Francisco, is at the head of affairs of the new company and is enthusiastic over the property that he and associates ac- ouired.

TWO SECTIONS OF UNION PASS ROAD
 HAVE BEEN FINISHED

The highway between Oatman and Topock has been completed, the work of surfacing the lower end of the road having been carried to it's finish few weeks ago, although the big shovel is still in use filling some of the places along the route that needed further surfacing. The outfits are being shipped out to be placed at work on the Pica-Peach Springs part of the National Old Trails Road, connecting up Mohave county's highway with that contemplated by Yavapai. Lieut.. T. s. O'Connell is to have charge of the work. The survey for this section of road has been completed and accepted by the state and federal aid engineer.
 It is now proposed, if possible, to build the section of highway between the Indian school at Valentine to Crozier, cutting out that part of the present highway that runs through Yampai creek and under the railroad bridge. While this piece of road will be expensive it is necessity.
 The engineering work on che Burro Creek project, from the Gray ranch to Burro creek, has been completed and the office work is now in the hands of the topographers and draughtsmen. As soon as the work is completed the project will be offered for bids. This project, if completed, will carry the roadway into Yavapai county, and it is said fairly good road is to be had from that point to Congress Junction.
 Two sections of the Union Pass pro- ject are about completed and the other sections are being laid out on the country to be covered by the roads, topographic surveys having been made of both sections of the road. When completed splendid highway will have been constructed from the Richardson ranch at Union Pass to the Frisco mine, bringing the road from the valley on the east to the open country on the west side of the Blue Ridge range.
 The Sandy road is under construc- tion and it is expected that in the next sixty days the greater part Of this highway will be ready to go into com mission. Had the necessary money been forthcoming it was the intention of the highway commission to carry this roadway to connection with Sig nal, which would give the people of the lower part of the Sandy an out let this way.

WILL DEVELOP
 NANDALAY GROUP

The Mandalay group of mines, lying to the west of the Sheeptrail and owned by the company of that name, is about to be developed. This group shows indications of good ore bodies and the work done on them some years ago will be used through which to further develop the veins. The con- pany is getting its finances in shape to carry on the work. The mines are situated on Sheeptrail mountain, to the east of the Roadside and in a To- cality made famous by the output of the Sheeptrail, Minnie and Boulevard mines, which in the old days sent out to the mill some of the richest ore of the district.
