MIDWAY Scene
GREAT STRIKE
OF HIGH GRADE
Four Feet OF Ore Uncovered at
Bottom of Wine Now Down
Twenty-Five Feet

\ wonderful mineral find is
officially reported by Supt. w.
j. Douglass of the Tonopah Mid
way Mining company. The ore
vein has a width of four feet
and is exposed at the bottom of
a 22-foot winzc sunk from the
1900 level about 400 feet west
Of the new shaft, and average
values Of 1925 a ton in silver
are contained.
Since the ore was encountered
with the inception of the sink
ing Of the Wine a total of SO
tons was shipped and the re
turns realized were $20 a ton.
The product was sent the Bel
mont mill for treatment.
The new find created no lit
tie sensation when the facts
were given out officially, as it
is considered one of the most
important discoveries that has
been made in the Tonopah dis
trict in quite a long period.
1t is believed that sensational
developments will follow in the
immediate territory heing ex-
plotted. Where the ore was
found it at the point where
George II. Garry, geologist, sug
gested that exploratory work be

BELCHER DEVEL0PMMT
PROGRESSES SMOOTHLY

Development at the Reorgan-

progressing satisfactory. OPP

the 500 level and crosscutting is
in order to tap the vein directly
under that point whence quite
a heavy production resulted two
years ago. 1t is expected that
when the objective is reached
that the formation will be found
more solid and that a body of
ore of a commercial grade will
be encountered. Scott Jamison,
who is in charge of develop,
ment, expects to be employing
quite a number of men in the
