Show TONOPAH ORE ZONE IS PROVING LARGER Evidence as to the fact that the limitations lim-itations of the Tonopah ore zone are not confined to a few close-in prop ertlefl is rapidly multiplying, says the Tonopah Dally Bonanza. The discoveries dis-coveries at Tonogold prove extension of mineralization" far to the north ward, while the developments In the Ha-sbrouck are evidence of extension of the values to the southward. The Hasbrouck is situated six miles from Tonopah In a rhyollte-andeslte formation similar to that of the original orig-inal discoveries, while tho ratio ol gold and sliver, as well as the structure struc-ture and constituency of the matrix, is almost identical George Kemick is the owner of the Hasbrouck and he is making It pay. although working It on a small BOale at present, only five miners now being be-ing employed. The vein was cut by means of an adit tunnel at a point 500 feet from the portal and at a vertical ver-tical depth of 230 feet. The vein here was four feet in width and contained, con-tained, according to mill returns about $19 a ton, the ratio between the two metals being twenty ounces rf silver to .32 of an ounce of gold Mr. Kernick Btoped to the fifty-foot level, taking out about 300 tons which were shipped to the West End mill, 100 tons going out In December and 100 tons In November. This month he expects to ship only fifty tons as he has reduced his force The remainder of the force is engaged in sinking a winze which will follow the ore. If the vein continues In size and enrichment to a depth of seventy-five feet from the tunnel level he will cut a station and install a hoist there, continuing to use the tunnel for removing re-moving the ore. The ledge, which was somewhat broken and irregular in the stope, is now well defined and the values are more uniform. nr |
