Show FIRST MT Fffjpti District Is Especially Active Since Wingfield Became Interested. CUSTOM MILL WILL SOON BE ERECTED Ore Is Straight Milling in Character, Char-acter, and Big Tonnage in Sight. Special to Tho Tribune PALISADE, Nov.,' Jan. 22. Tho first carload of gold oro from tho Buckhorn camp of Nevada will bo shipped out next wook for consignment to the purchasing pur-chasing market, and will ultimately bo-como bo-como a part of. tho currency of tho land Tho value of this first carload shipment is $104,500, though the most I onoourncinfr feature of the ovent is tho fact that practical assurance has been given that other and perhaps more val-uablo val-uablo consignments will bo forthcoming regularly from now on. Siiic.o the advent inlo tho Buckhorn district of Gcorgo Wingfield, who recently re-cently purchased a largo block of mining min-ing ground in tho district, renewed activity ac-tivity has beon noticeable among the operators throughout tho soction, and now plans are under way for extensive operations and new enterprises which will mean still morn work an1 nrnsnnr- ity for tho camp. One of tho most important of tho proposilions which is fast assuming definite- shape is tho construction of a custom gold mill of 200 tons daily capacity. Tho stock for the undertaking undertak-ing has already boon underwritten by tho Underwriters apd Guaranty company com-pany of Kansas City, Mo., and tho installation in-stallation of tho now plaut, it is statod, will be started at once. Totinago in Sight. A largo lonnago of gold ore is already on the dumps ready for mill treatment to convert it into a marketable product, prod-uct, and a mill of eveu greater capacity capac-ity than the ouo planned could bo kept in operation for three years on tho material ma-terial alrcndy in sight. Besides this tho extensive exploitation work now under way and contemplated is a guarantee guar-antee of a still greater production to be maintained in tho future. Tho mill-building company owns in its own right a numbor of very valuable valu-able properties and claims which it intends in-tends developing vigorously, and thoro are many other mines already in a position po-sition to furnish a regular output of ore for treatment. Tho "Nevada Five" group, which is owned by William M. Hennessey and associates of Los Angeles, hns an excellent ex-cellent showing of gold oro which was opened up within tho past two months. As a matter of fact, tho vein was disclosed dis-closed within two feet of tho surfaco and tho grade of ore is sufficiently high in gold to givo handsomo profits ovor all expenses of oporations. This property is very advantageously advantageous-ly situated for thorough and expeditious expedi-tious exploitation, for a drift can bo advanced on tho oro shoot which will secure a depth of at least 250 feel on the ore body when driven not to exceed ex-ceed 350 feet in length. Straight Milling. One especially favorablo feature of tho ores of tho Buckhorn district, is the fact that thoy carry no values in anything any-thing except gold, so that thoro is no refractor' or rebellious clement in the product to interfero with its profitable Since the first of tho year especially tho Buckhorn district has been particularly particu-larly active, and it gives promise of producing better results and moro wealth than other districts of the state about which much more is said and writton. The shipment of this first car of oro is but a forerunner of many more to come and in tho near future at that. Novadas in San Francisco. James A.
