Show BEAVER CROWN IS BEING FURNISHED WITH ELECTRICITY The Telluride Power company is now installing an electric line to the Beaver Crown mine, situated at Milford, Utah. The property is being- equipped with electric units, so as to cut operation costs and to give greater efficiency. As soon as the improvements now under way are completed, shipments ship-ments of ore will begin to the Unit-er Unit-er States Smelting & Refining Co. The Beaver Crown property consists con-sists of nine patented and two unpatented un-patented mining claims, covering about 220 acres of ground. The property is entirely clear and the title held by the Beaver Crown Consolidated Con-solidated Mining company. Within the last two weeks the $12,000 mortgage mort-gage on the property was paid in full. This property has been in the course of development for considerable consider-able time, and has produced ore. Tho work has been carried into the sulphide zone on the 500 foot level, where very high-grade lead and silver sil-ver ore has been encountered. Samples Samp-les from several ore bodies it is said, run from $7S to $1113 per ton. Engineer P. J. Donohue, who recently re-cently examined this property says "You have the limestones that are known ore producers; the igneous igne-ous intrusions, the figures; inter- ! secting veins; every condition nec- . essary, and from the surface showing; show-ing; the results obtained by the development de-velopment done and the showing at j the water level in the four hundred; : your closeness to the railroad, four and one-half miles; with the electric equipment installed, and the shaft sunk to the five hundred foot level, and connected with the ore body now open on the four hundred foot level, there is n possibility of failure. Tho only question lo be determined is how big a mine you will have." I Western Mineral Survey. |
