Show RICH CAiHTES III HH MINE Cedar Talisman Company on Fourth Level Strikes Three Feet Solid Ore. IS A", HIGH GRADE SHIPPING VARIETY Company Close fo Same Ore E'ody on the Next Level Below. Tt always has been a favorite theory of the mine operators of tho Star and A'orth Star mining districts of Beaver county that nothing but depth was noeded to bring into being liberal and rich producers of ore. This fact has J been pretty dearly demonstrated in the Star camp by many active companies, and it is evident that the Cedar-Talisman Compaq- of the Xorth Sfar district is on tho verpje of proving this theory correct in its jjeek of tho woods. General Man'ager S. S. Pond of the Cedar-Talisman companj- returned to Salt Lake City Saturda' morning with a sample of the sort of ore now being found on the 400-d'oot level of this property. prop-erty. One small chunk of magnificent gray carbonate crm which he brought willi him weighed, seventy-five pounds, and there is little need to have it assayed, as-sayed, if is as ribh a sort of ore as ever came from thifi well known prop osition. Some timo ago thci management sent the drift on the -iOO-foot Jcvcl into a large natural cave. 'Hhis cave was well provided with ore, bait it was not a vcr3" high-grade sort, although, under normal conditions, it could be shipped at a profit. During- Mr. Pond's visit at tho property, the management decided de-cided to investigate conditions on all sides beyond this cave, and a few feet of work brought the minurs face to face with a splendid ore body. One crosscut opened the ore for fivo feet, a second went into it for three feet, so Mr. Pond is inclined lo minimize the extent i of the oro until moro development is done, and ho calls it at least throe feet in width. And he pronounces it Iho best find that ever was made in this mine. The management is not so concerned about shipping some of this rock to the local smelters as it is in hunying the work on the fiOO-foot level to open the same shoot at that depth. Mr. Pond says that so much work has been done on the 500 level already that f.t will be only a short time until this oro is tapped. Should it show up on the 500, and there is no doubl of this, judging from present indications, tho Cedar-Talisman Cedar-Talisman will be in a mighty happy condition, con-dition, and it -will then bo in a position to talk ore shipments. |
