Show STRIKE IN THE NORTH STAR special correspondence tonopah To nevada june 24 since writing you last week the north star has made one of the most important strikes chronicled since the discovery of ore in the midway three days after the miners resumed work a body of ore four feet wide which shows average values of over per ton was encountered and sacking of ore commenced abonce at once this thi is a repetition of the wonderful record made in the midway and no doubt before this is in print the north star will have a shipment en route to the ss melters the recent strike on the level of the tonopah mining company is thirty two feet wide and shows the same general values as the level in drifting to the west a rich body of ore was encountered that is evidently a continuation of the brougher chute which was perhaps the richest ever struck in the mine A remarkable fact is that the new strike on the is exactly the same width and about the same values as the level in the tonopah extension As the extension shaft is feet lower than the tonopah mining company many express the opinion that greater things will be shown in the near future along the strike of this ledge than the wildest imagination has ever dreamed of J W LANGLEY |
