News From

vein from the point of entry produc- ing property will be opened.
 About year ago the mining editor went through the Adams and was i'm pressed with it's importance. With a development campaign carried on, or with some diamond drilling, we believe there would be brought in one of the most important mines in the district The mine is we'll situated, it has a large vein outcrop and every indica- tion of the making of a real mine. Of course, there is great deal of fault ing in the property, but this fault system should be readily worked out and the vein picked up. Much of the ore opened on the levels above the 500 show free gold and the average value of the ore is quite high, al- though the bodies are not large. With the picking up of the main ore body we are of the opinion that one of the most potential ore bodies in the camp will be entered.

properties. The Pioneer and Snow ball are among the best veins in the camp and the lining up of the faulted segments will be of great importance to that section of country. The gen. eral impression has been that in the west and southwest part of the field the veins get into the older andesite at superficial depths and therefore, no ore can live in that zone, wherefore none may be looked for. This, to us, is one of the fallacies that usually find place in camps of the character of Oatman ,and was put forward to prevent further development in the Camp Bird mines many years ago, and initiated against the original discov- erer of the property when he was try ing to place it with the company that afterward took millions from it.
 George Moser, who has charge of the property we believe, has the sub ject of further development of the

OATMAN GOLD
 SHAFT 425 Fl,

Sinking below the $50 level on the Oatman Gold is proceeding satisfac- torily, six feet per day being made. The big shaft is now at a depth of 425 feet and within the month it will reach the 500, where a station will be cut and the work of going out into the mineralized territory carried on. The shaft is we'll situated, being close in to every part of the territory that has been proven to be ore bearing, the Big Jim on the southwest, the Oatman United on the west, the Oat- man Combination on the east and vein of the group on the south. This latter vein carried high gold values in the shallow tunnel driven through an ,outcrop, and it is possible this will become important at depth.
 Driving into the veins coming in from the Oatman United will prob ably be the first work done from the 300 level, although there is a strong sentiment that big vein will be found in the territory between the big shaft and the sidelines of the Big Jim. The management has done good work in the carrying of the shaft to the present depth and it is to be hoped that their faith in the property will meet with reward

SOLD DUST OPENS
 H|GHGRADE WITH DRILL

The second hole has penetrated the vein from the 500 level and the ore is said to be of exceptionally high value. The first hole is reported to have brought in ore that ran between $20O and $500, but just how large the vein is has not been reported to this office. Another hole is to be driven into the vein to give some idea of the length of the shoot and to deter mine if the value remain.
 The Gold Dust was one of the first of the veins outside of the Tom Reed to receive attention in the early days of the camp and a shaft was carried to the 500. Below the 300 the vein had faulted and effort to pick it up was unavailing. Above the 300 fine body of ore has been developed, and it is now presumed that the ore body that is being opened by the diamond drill is the same as that opened in the levels above. With the development of this ore body it is also probable that other parts of the estate will be reached into and the other veins, ss. pecially the Gold Key, may be brought into productivity. The Gold Key, like the Gold Dust, faulted and but little effort made to pick up the vein at depth, although it had favorable ore body in the workings above the fault zone.

OAT MAN
MINING LEADS IN REVIVAL OF ACTIVITIES IN . SOUTHWESTERN STATES IN UNITED STATES

SAN FRANCISCO, May 27.-Un- usual activity in the mining, oil and lumber industries throughout the west, continued strength in the bank ing situation and comparative dull ness in wholesale and, retail trade are noted in the report for April of John Perrin, San Francisco, federal reserve agent for the Twelfth district.
 Improvement in the lumber indus try was the outstanding feature" &C., cording to the report. Production during April was s5 per cent of nor nal, and during the first two weeks of May reached normal. Orders re- ceived during April exceeded produc- tion by 27.1 per cent, this being the fifth consecutive month in which de- mand has exceeded current produc- tion.
 r. Banks Show Activity
 Increased activity in industry and agriculture is reflected in the loans and discounts or reporting member banks which increased from $834,264,- 900 to $s53,2S1, ,O00, or 2.3 per cent, during April. At the same time de- posits in these banks increased from $1,114,O92,0oO to $1,152,S07 ,O0O, or 3.5 per cent, and they were able to reduce their borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank from $22,651, 1,00O to 14,672, 900, or 35.2 per cent. Borrow ings of all member banks from the Federal Reserve bank declined from $49, 9,O25, ,000 to $43,279,0OO or 11.7 per cent in the four-week period ending May 10.
 April was a month of little or no improvement in retail and wholesale trade. A decline of 1.3 per cent in the value of sales at retail compared with sales in April, 1921, was re- ported, notwithstanding the fact that Easter buying was included in March sales last year and in April sales this year. In eight of the ten reporting lines of wholesale trade, the value and probably the physical volume of sales was less in April, 1922, than in April 1921. The exceptions were agricul- tural implements: and hardware. !, *;y,. Building Increases ;-
 Building permits issued during April give further evidence of excep- tional activity in construction and building. Permits issued were 16.5 per cent greater in number and 51.6 per cent greater in value than in ] April, 1921, and were approximately equal to the permits issued in the record month of March, 1922. The volume of business transacted in the district, as reflected in reports of debits to individual accounts in 20 principal cities was practically the same in April, 1922, as in March, 1922, and April, 1921. The number and lia- bility of business failures, although large. was less than in the previous month.
 Employment in the district is in creasing rapidly as industrial activity increases and seasonal farm and con- struction work is begun"

The close proximity of the Lexing- ton to the new strike made on the Gold Dust has aroused intense inter- est in Oatman in the former H. E. Woods property. No. 6 drill hole on the Gold Dust is not more than 700 feet from the Lexington line and as the rake of the Gold Dust ore shoot is to the east it is believed that it carries directly into the Lexington.

The mines lie in a wonderful position for diamond drilling and we are rath- CT anxious to see these mines make good. Many years ago We, had 4O- pound chunk of ore from the Snowball mine that had a value of $500 to the ton, and this ore carried down quite a distance. While the vein was not large had it not faulted it would have made many of the other veins of the camp look to their laurels.
