yield of dividends den ds will be limited only by the force employed in the extraction and reduction of ores the siebert shaft the largest as to size and where the heaviest hoist will be placed is dropping downward today from the level the drift on the level connecting the siebert with the desert has neen deen completed the queen shaft has cut through twenty four feet of ore of the value of 80 per ton A working station has been cut out at the foot point on the east level of the mizpah ledge the ore body is twelve feet wide all of which goes over per ton at the face unaltered ore is coming in replacing the oxidized ores A new has been started on the east level which is opening up from six to seven feet of ore in the east and west drifts at the level of the valley view the ledge is six feet wide and forms a mass of ore of yet unexplored length which yields to the ton NEW YORK TONOPAH resumption of operations in the new york tonopah will continue the work of dropping the big working shaft from the level it was the intention of this company from the start to sink 1000 feet before beginning the work of crosscutting cross cutting the great extent of leda ledgie bearing ground covered by its claims whether or not ore bodies were encountered the mineralized blue porphyry commonly forming the wall rocks of tono pah ledges has been penetrated together with in shoots of a denser character all of which are indications of the proximity of a regular contact aside from the quartz interspersed persed SILVER TOP superintendent fleming reports that the shaft on the silver top has reached 70 feet irk in depth the combined ledges continue in nearly vertical position between the contact the walls being of hard mizpah porphyry and andesite the clay gangue on the hanging wall is strongly impregnated with iron while late assays essays from the four foot ledge show a marked improvement in values mainly as to gold the company is planning for the early erection of a steam hoist mining investors will be interested in the fact anat some treasury stock may be sold for the purpose of completing the mine equipment INDIANA TONOPAH during the past week the work of sinking the two compartment shaft on the ella claim has progressed steadily the formation in the bottom oi of the shaft Is changing and the indications are that it is nearly through the volcanic capping and the possibility ot of getting into the mineralized formation in a very short time seems assured in prospecting lately on the claims at the east end of the group droppings crop pings of a ledge were discovered which showed small values on the surface As soon as the snow melts systematic prospecting will be done on all the claims of the group TONOPAH UNION progress on the tonopah union shaft at gold mountain is being maue maae at an average of twenty inches per day aay good work with a windlass in very hard ore and a foot hoist so far as known as to its width the ledge ranges from seven se vento to ten feet as says says from two to three feet of this run from 42 to 1257 per ton at the bottom ox 0 the the ore shows less oxidization as s the work goes along ALPINE omeara lynch have returns for eight carloads of ore shipped from their mine at alpine city lone mountain and have three cars in transit the ore nets the lucky owners 2500 per car the production has paid the purchase price of the property which is isnow now estimated to be worth MONTANA TONOPAH the high grade ore in the bottom of the shaft has widened out to five feet on the north side the north drift at the level is all in good pay ore sinking continues at the rate of two feet per day the first carload of rich ore will be ready about the of february WEST END the engineers at the west end shaft reversed the usual order of procedure in having completely set up their hoisting engine first and then using it to raise the big gallows frame the latter now looms over main and summit streets and will begin business next T tuesday GOLD MOUNTAIN MINES all of the gold mountain mining companies are sinking in ore of good values the stock of the different companies is in great demand many thousand shares having changed hands during the past week KING TONOPAH the shaft has attained a depth of feet and lynch and omeara are confident of cutting a rich ledge in the next few feet several small stringers gerg which assay from 15 to 80 per ton are now being S unk sunk upon there is none of this stock on the market it being a close corporation the property aies lies about one mile north of the mizpah MOLLY good headway is being made in sinking 1 the shaft which is in porphyry the new steam hoist is in transit and will arrive very soon the porphyry shows value the molly stock is a good investment STONE CABIN at the level drifting and crosscutting cross cutting is being carried on theore the ore in the drift is of high grade sinking will be resumed in a few days RESCUE sinking of the two compartment shaft is being prosecuted with all possible speed the shaft is now down reet reer during the week several stringers of ore was cut in the shaft the ore giving good assay values the shaft is down feet GOLD HILL the shaft is now down in quartz feet |
