Show Gold, Our lucky friend Mr. Sol. Kunkel is tip from Humboldt, spending a few days with hia family. He exhibits some specimens of gold quartz, a Bight of which almost cures sore eyes in these days of money scarcity. He has developed bis Byron mino to a considerable extent, having run a tunnel on the vein seventy-five feet, and sunk a shaft near tbe end of the tunnel twenty feet deep. He has a three-feet pay streak of gold, and specimens of the quartz are marbled with the yellow metal. The only silver ledge which he is developing in Humboldt, the Palace, is also showing up handsomely, producing pro-ducing ore which runs from $100 to $500 per ton in silver. Mr. Kunkel expects to returp in a few days and commence the shipment of both gold and silver ore. |
