EUREKA MINING NEWS
,rpoRTED OPTION SECURED
- pATENTED GROUP

Austin Jackson OF Reno, who has
naen associated at times with Eugene
n.vis in mining companies of this
a,striet. was in Eureka several days
This week and it is reported that he
nrocured an option on a strategical
sroup of patented claims on Pros
nsct Mountain before leaving for the
west on Wednesdays train.
EuREKA-HOLLY
Superintendent L. Brooke reports
that a drift on the 500 level is being
driven west of the Holly fault to in
tsrsect the ore shoot from 400 level
south at the point where it pierces
the plane OF the 500 level. Sufficient
work has been done on this shoot be-
low the 400 level to determine its
nersistence. A change of formation
has been encountered in the drift on
the 500 level running north OF the
shaft. Extremely hard ground has
come in in the drift running south
along the porphyry-limestone con-
tact on the 500.
BULLwHACKER
The drift along the porphyry-lime-
stone contact on the 430 level inter
sected a system of open assures dur
ing the past week. This is a note
worthy development for the reason
that the ore shoots in the upper levels
Of the mine are associated with such
assures.
EUREKA-UNCLE SAM
Due to gasses and insufficient air.
the night shift at the Uncle Sam mine
has been discontinued until addition
al ventilation can be provided. How
ever superintendent D. States says
the full force is retained by doubling
up the day shift and driving the main
tunnel, upraising and crosscutting to
the Wade lode. which work is daily
increasing the tonnage OF the large
ore bodies exposed. He states that
the upraise which will be extended
to the surface, 500 feet above. is be-
ing run In ore and the latest indica-
tions are that this is now making
into high grade. The crosscut to the
Wade lode next the shale has been
advanced 20 feet the past week. with
approximately 80 feet yet to reach
the objective. where the higher grade
ores Of the mine will be opened.
Superintendent States left this
morning for Salt Lake City by way
Of Elko to purchase a full plant OF
machinery in order to hasten the
work OF driving the main tunnels to
the Hamburg line; also an electric
lighting equipment, and before leav-
ing said he would send In several
truck loads of lumber and building
material from Elko for the erection
Of comfortable quarters at the mine
for a large force of miners.
The management plans to have all
the ore in the present tunnel thor
oughly blocked out during the next
four months, and an additionaltunn
along the west side of the ore zone
will be driven to the Hamburg mine.
from which crosscutting and uprais-
ing will be done.
Superintendent States says this de-
velopment will constitute a block of
ore bearing zone approximately 800
BY 500 feet. and provide a large flu
ture supply of ore for the combina-
uon reduction mill which is now be-
ing designed and assembled at San
francisco, and which will be in
stalled as early next Spring as wealth
er permits.
