Work will Start
At Luckyboy

Tentative arrangements have
been completed for amply financing
the further development of the
famous Luckyboy mines, six miles
south of Hawthorne. Senator J..
H. Miller will leave here Monday
for New York to complete the de-
tails for the resumption of work.
1. B. Scrimger, local manager of
the new company. will begin the
work of hauling the new 1OO-ton
flotation mill from Alum creek to
the portal of the long tunnel at
Luckyboy next Monday, the mill
site having been already selected
and approved. It is planned to
have the mill running by July 1st.
While it is the intention of the
company to confine its work to the
upper levels for the present, de-
velopment below the tunnel level
will be prosecuted in the near flu
ture.
The resumption of work at the
Luckyboy will be cheerful news
not only to Hawthorne and Min
erar county. but to- the State at
large, as systematic and intelligent
mining is almost certain to expose
new bodies of the r'ch ore for
which this property has become
noted.

A Titled Visitor

Countess Mariana Wentworth
de Lowe, AN English lady who is
heavily interested in mining prop
erty in Tonopah and other mining
camps in Nevada, arrived here
Thursday in company with J. E.
Adams from Los Angeles. The
Countess made an inspection trip
through the Luckyboy and Alum
creek mining properties, and en-
joyed roughing it +" for several
days, sleeping in the bunkhou e
and devouring sour dough and
pigs knuckles with the relish of a
hard rock miner. The Countess
greatly regretted that other Ell.
gagements prevented her from
trolling for trout in Walker lake.
She will leave for Tonopah tomor-
row.

BIG COPPER PROPERTY

L. d. Lappat of the Copper Noun
tain Mining Syndicate was i'll Rene
Monday and showed several samples
of ore from his property. Specimines
placed in the brokerage house at
tracted considerable attention. says the
Journal.
The Copper Mountain Mining Syn
dicate property is located Is miles east
of Nolan station on the Southern Pa
cific railroad and comprises five pat
ented claims Thrty-five miles dis
tant is the Mason Valley smelter. Mr.
Lappat is accompanied by Me. Ziege.
mining engineer of New York City.
Geologist Ziege, who has just returned
from the property says: The Cop
per Mountain Mining Syndicate prop
erty has been developed by three
shafts. No. is at depth OF 800 feet;
Mol is 1c0 feet deep, and No. 2 is al
depth OF 200 feet. About 1900 feet OF
drifting and stoping has been done.
All of the workings are in ores OF
varying values. Shaft No. 2 is the
main working shaft and few feet OF
drifting has opened a large ore re-
SERVE. The assay values of the ores
range from one per cent UP to eight
per cent copper, with small gold and
silver values.
Il estimate the ore developed and
proven as l9,0CC tons, wilile tbs
smaller workings show an estimated
tonnage OF about 4CG0 tons. II IS my
opinion that with a proper develop
ment campaign very large ore re
serve may be opened. From ore set
tlcrifent sheets | know that this prop
erty produced $l75,o0o during the
war.
"The plan OF development now is te
continue the drifting from No. ? shat
on the 2C0-foot level. small con
centration plant is planned which
should place the mine on a self sus
taining basis.
According to Mr.. Lappat the prop.
erty was discovered by him IN l90f
and he has been working ii in a sr1al
way ever since. Milton Nj. Detch at
torney. is vice president.
