Heavy SALE oF Hypraviic Crats.
The attention of capitalists has been directed’to the rich and extensive béds of gravel
found in the county,: pss several
heavy sules have been made.¥ 8, F. Butterworth, Superintendent of the Almeden
quicksilver mine, L, L. Robinson, of Pioche
& Co., and a number of capitalists, have
purchased several extensive gravel claims
upon Humbug Creek, near the town of
North Bloomfield. One set of claims were .
_purchased for $200,000, and an adjoining
set brought $150,000. The claims aloug
the creek are exceedingly rich, and an im.mense-amount of gold has been taken from
them, but owing to the light grade of the
creek it has been 1mpossible to work the
claims to any great depth. The purchasers
of these claims are already making arrangements. for working them. en an extensive
scale. A large number of men will be employed and the town of Bloomfield willbe.
quite lively. The basin in which these
“ elaims are located can be washed. to the
bed rock, if a tunnel is run from Humbug
creek to the banks of the Yuba, a distance
of about two thousand’ feet. , The: miners”
owning ground on the creek have been talk.
ing of putting this tunnel-through for several years, but as they -were mostly men of
sual] means, the great expense of the work
deterred them. We suppose the’ capital‘ists who have invested their money in these
mines will svonhave the tunnel opened,
and the yield of the claims will then be
more than double what is was under the
system of surface washing, which the min.
ers have been cumpelled to be satisfied with
heretofore. The same revival in hydraulic
mining exhibited. in North Bloomfield, is
mavifested in every part of the county. Ut
is probuble that at an early day a bed-rock
tunnel will be run tu the bottom of the
great basin at Columbia Hill and Cherokee.
topping immense gravel beds of one hundred
and fifty to four hundred feet deep, which
have on the surface paid as well as any
claiins in the State. Where the bottom is
reached the yield is greatly increased: A
number of causes have titited tu bring about
this revival of hydraulic mining in this county. Our old miners, after traveling to dis
tant lands in search of better pay,and meet.
ing with nothing but disappointment, returned tu this county and began working . .
their oldclaime. The large returns at each
clean up, made by companies which contin.
ued work, soon demonstrated the fact that
the gravel claims of the county were not
worked out. ‘Old.companies were re-organized aud new. ones formed, and in every
case success was the rule und failure the exception. In addition to this, the improved
machinery and processes for extracting gold
_ from the eulphurets, the invention of pans.
for grinding and mills for crushing the cement found on the bed-rock in gravel claims,
greatly increased the yield uf these mines:
and proved that millions of money had been
washed into the ravines and creeks, which,
with proper machinery might have been
saved. At this time, old claims long since
deserted are being fitted up, and there is a
great demand for guod gravel claims among
capitalists. Great confidence is felt in
them on account of their vast extent and
_their regularity in pay. Ina year the yield
from this source will be nearly double what
it is at the present time.
