CT recent date of high-grade ore
have done much to stimulate inter-
est in the different camps and have
caused a general revival in public
interest in the mining stocks.
Few of the present day investors
realize the natural resources of such
camps at Oatman. Katherine. Eldo-
rado Canyon, Goodsprings, Search
light, Phoebe, Divide, Goldfield Ton
opah and numerous others equally
meritorious. The money invested in
some of the more important comp
anies of these districts at the pres
emf stage for development work
should mean not only return to
the investor, but the advancement
of the mining industry on large
scale.

prosperity by heavy

share of this prosperity by heavy
stock purchases.
Much attention is also focused up
on the Katherine District CT Arizona
which promises to share with Oat-
man the fame of being one of the
greatest gold camps of the country
Favorable reports are at hand from
the Gold Chain, the Hill Top, Apex
and Argo. The Katherine mine is
claimed 20 be one of the most phe-
nominal gold propositions ever dis
covered.
All indications point to an influx
Of prospectors, miners, capitalists
and mining engineesr into this dis
trict and there is much promise of
activity this summer in the region.
Now that the Oatman district is
receiving so much attention we arc
apt to overlook the fact that Cali
fornia is among the worlds largest
gold producers. Activity in Califor-
MAS gold mines is steadily gaining
as is reflected by the increasing
number of applications for stock
selling permits. Earnest mining eff
fort is being made along the Moth
er Lode regions in the Angels Camp
San Andreas and Mokellueme Hill
districts.
In the Rand mining district, the
Big Butte, a mine of long dividend
paying famem is being reopened
The Yellow Aster, Blackboard and
Black Hawk mines, located in the
same district, merit interest because
of their preparation for large scale
developments. From the Mojave dis
trict come reports of renewed act
/ ivities.
| Immediately across the boundary
:, of California is located the Ell Dor
ado Canyon in the southwest por-
tion of Clark county, Nevada with
the apex of the triangle adjoining
the two great mineral states, Cali
fornia and Arizona. In Ell Dorado
canyon many fortunes have been
realized by proSpectors from what
is known in the parlance of desert
regions as high dredging" although
the more subseqeut developments
brought forth discoveries of indica-
tions of large and permanent bodies
of valuable ore.
Farther west in Nevada, is locat-
ed the Goldfield and Tonopah dis
tricts. Primarily the very satisfact-
ory status of the mining situation
here is due to the success which has
| attended recent developments. Dur
ing the past year many operating
/ improvements have been made by
active companies of that camp, and
from the standpoint of investment
| their stocks offer attractive oppor-
| tunities for speculation.
The Divide district make strong
bid for popularity now being accord
ed other districts. Tonopah Divide
| the leader of the field, is, in the
opinion of many, a coming Rand.
Complex geology yet to be solved
may hold startling realization as ite
reward. Among other mines at Di-
vide, the Gold Belt Divide, sponsor
ed by Charles Keilhofer, we'll known
mining operator, gives unusual
promise of early proof of new
riches. 1t was Charlie Keilhofer
who claimed distinction of being the
first miner to ship the first pound
of ore from Divide.
