Show TINTIC MINE making EXCELLENT SHIPPING for the two weeks ending today the tintie tintic standard mine has shipped a total of twenty eight carlo carloads ads of ore according to supt bupt john west erdahl and there Is every reason to believe that the output of the pro prop p erty will be kept up to this present high standard until such time as con editions are mora more favorable tor for li haul ul ing when heavier shipments will no doubt be in order the company s ore Is now being hauled both by teams and trucks and the success which has attended the motor trans por tation justifies the prediction that it will not be long until horses will be dispensed with entirely it has been possible to keep the motor trucks in operation even during the most severe winter weather and it is hardly probable that the weather will ever be so severe that they will be put out of business the two trucks which are now in use at this mine are being kept in operation dur ing about eighteen hours of the day and night two drivers being cm em aloyed tor for each of the machines the trucks are able to make three round trips between the mine and loading station for each shift and as they take down something over tour four tons of ore per trip they are now hauling fully one halt half of the mine s output of ore by purchasing another large truck and some trailers the tintic gintic standard people should be able to do away with the teams and at the same time greatly reduce the hauling ex benses manager kaddatz who was at the property but a few days ago is au an dhority for the statement that the mine s underground showing Is bet ter than at any time in its history the ore bodies are opening up bigger and better every month and mr rad datz Is highly pleased with the gener al outlook he is especially elated with the ore showing in what Is known as the no 5 which is north of the shaft and in the newer part pirt of the mine this ore carries some copper although the values are largely in silver which is character of all of the tintic gintic standard ore no new strikes have been made in the mine during the past few weeks but the main ore body on which most of the work has been done is opening up splendidly showing that it is one of the largest deposits ever uncover ed in this district notwithstanding the fact that the work has been in progress tor for many months it Is yet much too early to even guess at the extent of the ore which the tintic gintic standard people have uncovered two drifts only are now being driven for tl tie e purpose of getting a better line on the ore one is being sent toward the south and the other is headed in a southeasterly diree tin while the figures are not made public it is understood that the ore which the mine Is shipping is bring ing on an average of 1 per car load some of the cars probably do not bring any more than or but a good many of them go tar far above the 1 mark so that it Is perhaps not a bad guess to say that the ore is bringing the company close to per ton As previously stated silver is the chief metal al though all of the ore carries some lead and a part of it Is running quite well in copper |
