Show CITY CREEK CLAIMS MAY HIE VINES Ore Found in Small Quantities Shows Indications of Large Deposits. Local Interests in the Burro Mining company, operating a group of claims near the head of City Crock canyon, slate that their property will probably bo put. on a producing basis during the coining summer. Considerable capital has been expended of late In development work at the mine, nnd also in building roads and adding equipment to the machinery pre paratory to shipping. There Is considerable considera-ble orq now blocked out In the mine, it Is staled, nnd a shipment which will be sent down as soon as the roads will permit per-mit Is now being prepared. In the courso of the work on the silver-lead silver-lead ores exposed In the property good gold values were encountered, but It Is to the further development of the former class of ores that future work will be more particularly directed. The ores found, though running high In value, have not as yet been developed In sufficient quantity to warrant an attempt at rcg-ulur rcg-ulur production, though the property is considered a very encouraging prospect, and worthy of furthor development. The tunnel on the ground is now In over 200 feel, and It Is the Intention to crosscut to the vein and to drift south on the ore. In years gone by properties In the City Creek country havo produced quito heavily, Henry V Lawrence nnd others having operated In the district, and there are many who maintain that one of these days the district will be heard from again in no small way.
