Show IIKIIC i II ! U(ub Con. and Iron Blossom Soon Due Willi Disclosures of Significance. 1 ONE IS LOOKING FOR HUMBUG ORES The Other Searching Palicnfly i'or the Colorado-Sioux Ore Channel. "There are two very intcrestinjr bits of development work j:oinir at tho Tin-tic, Tin-tic, right now, ou which tho public correctly cor-rectly should keep a weather eye. Oue is the work being doue by tho Utah Consolidated company, and tho other that ou tho Iron Blossom. Tho Utah Consolidated of Tintic during its short life on the stock exchange has witnessed a. greater activity, moro shares of its stock havo sold, than any other stock ever listed hero, :uid the buyorders havo been well distributed throughout this city and State," said a well-known mining min-ing ftnginecr Monday ou returning from Tintic. "Tho Utah Consolidated, as von know, is drifting over for tho Humbug ore body. The. management is working ou the 300-foot level, and it is expected to lind tho same oro bodies that have bceu turned to tho light so uninterruptedly uninter-ruptedly in tho past on tho Uncle Sam ground. Tho breast of the drift is not over forty feet from tho point where this oro should mako its first appearance, appear-ance, and that means we will hear some interesting news from this proposition early in the new year, inl cresting, of course, if tho theory of the officials is correct. "There need bo no uneasiness in my opinion over the delay iu finding the Colorado ore body by way of the north shaft of tho Iron 'Blossom'propcrty. This oro body, as everyone acquainted with eastern Tintic knows, through tho Beck Tunnel and Colorado mines are like a gigantic wave, cxtondiug up and down in graceful curls as it stretched its rich way for tho thousands of feet already portly prospected. It is a very easy ore body to find, therefore, and will take .iust the thorough and patient-exploratory work now being done by the Knigbr. management. To my wa3' of thinking, these two points right; now-present now-present tho most engrossing features of mining in eastern Tintic " |
