properties with a long tunnel hut but no more work of any kind will now be done until spring milford times it is quite likely that the estella mine will be equipped with a cyanide plant in the near future assayer killam killain is now stationed at the mine making tests upon the ores cres the results are said to be quite satisfactory and it is understood that the directors now have the subject under consideration there are now tons of ore blocked out that will yield from 5 to 10 per ton in gold and a little silver the gold is very fine and the ore carries no other metal except iron and is therefore particularly adapted to the cyanide process an abundant water supply can be secured by placing the plant on the edge d of f the valley just below the mine bingham bu bulletin letin dr J J

southern pacific property which is located a short distance south of ogden and only two miles from the railroad recent developments in this mine have opened up a high grade body of ore carrying a ill high gh percentage of copper and showing good gold values J W burnham the manager of the mine says ore is being taken from two places in the property which is being opened up by an incline shaft which has attained considerable depth this incline was wan sunk on a vein of copper which cropped at a width of about two feet the last shot put in showed a breast of ore between eight and ten feet in width manager burnham thinks that within the next fibey feet the ore body will increase to twenty five feet in width samples of ore from these workings will run about 40 per cent copper and assay 5 in gold another ore body is being opened up by means of a tunnel which is 0 bein being g driven to intercept the contact at a depth of feet the winter campaign mapped out by mr burnham is to push the tunnel to the contact when he expects to open up an immense body of ore next spring a second tunnel will be run to another portion of the mine which will strike the vein feet below the surface mr burnham has the utmost confidence that the southern pacific mine has a great future as a producer |
