Show lehi gintic tintic IN now M ma T ow doing good work machine drills are in use and drift is headed straight for for the big vein which car ned ried rich ore at the surface during the early part of the past week M F scammon the well known tintic gintic mining man made altric out into the north tintic gintic lw n ti ot of the ie e 1 in UL mining company and on his return gave ing report on general conditions condition sP work has been in progress on this ground for a number of years ears in tact fact it was this same property which at so much attention back in 1893 when rich ore was discovered at the grass roots at that time the property was known as the gold blossom and old timers of the dis brict will recall the shipment of ore from the vein which cropped to the surface on one of the claims the ore carried considerable gold as well as some lead and silver the vein did not maintain its values as sink ing was carried on from the surface but it Is the general opinion of min ing men that all that the owners need to do to make a mine Is to cut this same vein at greater depth they have been working toward that end for some time but the work has necessarily been very slow mr feels confident that they have not yet reached the vein in which the values are to be found but he says that with the new machine drills which are now being operated by manager george nicholes much more rapid progress can be made this ground is in the great min eral zone of tintic gintic and we should soon be receiving some good reports from it said mr it is directly to the north of the proper property on which the chief cons people are now operating and is traversed by the same vein mr nicholes Ni cholea is start ing to crosscut to the west ne near the face of the northwest drift fro from the main tunnel and I 1 feel sure that this piece of work will soon cut the ore channel on its dip several hundred feet of work has already been done on this ground but they have yet to cut the main big vein which prodoc ed some good ore during the early history of the ground |
