For Other Advertising Made Known on Applithere will be room enough for quite a number of more miners, A large pit has been
blasted out on the ledge in one place and
is now down about thirty feet. The quartz
found in the bottom is richer than that
taken out previously. The black, rich
streak that runs through the ledge is filled
with free gold and will pay handsomely.
Experienced miners and mill men estimate
that some of this cinder-like quartz will
pay as high as $300 per ton by mill process. . Besides this pit the company are
running one or two tunnels into the hill
further up. Several tons of ore have been
sacked up and shipped to Colorado for
treatment by a new ting process that
has proven very satisfactory in that State.
eaticn Some time ago Superintendent Howard had
twelve tons of quartz crushed at the custom
= mill in Eureka, It was sorted into three
i B IG HT lots and the poorest yielded $30 per ton,

English Mountain Mining
Company’s Prospects.
#0
The fear has been expressed by many of
those familiar with the section that the
quartz will become rebellious when a depth
of fifty or more feet is reached. It is only
three or four miles over to Meadow Lake,
where the ore which was rich and easily
oa miake worked near the surface became so refrae: tory further down that no process has ever
WHAT HAS BEEN DONE SO —— been tried of it with satisfactory results
A Large Force of Men Are Rushing
the Work of Putting up a Mill
and Other Buildings.
——
The Transcnirr has several times made
mention of the work that is being done by
the English Mountain Mining Compavy in
the upper part of this county, but there are
some facts in relation to the operations now
under way there that have not been heretofore published and which we think will
prove ‘interesting to many of our rekders.
English mountain, on the northerly side
of which the mine ig situated, rises to ap
elevation of: about 8,200 feet above the sea,
and is almost entirely composed of solid
rock, Its lofty and craggy summit can be
seen for many miles in ai] directions, and
ever since the country became inhabited by
white people has been a familiar landmark
to the rugged mountaineers who have dwelt
in that section of the county and to all others who have traveled much through that
of from fifteen to thirty feet and in some of
the cuts in the northern side of the mountain snow can be found the year round.
There is still quite a patch just above the
mine, It is a wild, rough country in “the
summer season, while in winter it presents
8 scene of dreariness and desolation that is
almost beyond description. It is a most
uninviting place for any enterprise, and
were it not for the very flattering mining
Profipects that have been found there the
steep mountain side would be gazed upon
by the traveler and tourist with only a
feeling of admiration of the wonderful works
of nature. But the heavy explosions; of
blasts and the sounds of other work that is
being performed by civilized man, attract
more than casual notice from those who
happen to be traveling through that section.
It is perhaps a half mile from the old
Hennens Pass road up to where the English
Mountain Company are operating. A good
wagen road has been made up to the mine,
over which lumber, machinery, provisions
and other supplies are hauled in, This
road leaves the main road about five or six
miles above the foot of Bowman Dam and
three or four miles from Jackson's on the
other side. 3 Soviet
_ Eighteen teams of from four to eight
horses each are now hauling Jumbar “+.

uver thirty miles, Two sawmills are kept
running constantly to fil] the contracts for
lumber, which amount to over 350,000 feet,
to be delivered on the ground within a
specified time, Old-timers say—that—the
life and activity noticeable dlong the route
from: Webber lake to where the road to the
mine intersects, reminds them somewhat of
the scenes of thirty years ago, during the
Washoe excitement, when much of ‘the
freight for Virginia City was hauled over
that road by team from Sacramento.
A large lot of lumber has been delivered
at the mine, and two loads of machinery
have arrived,
hauling
trom Emigrant
Gap, through
Bear Valley and over the old Culbertson
road. The distance ig twenty miles and the road a rough One, although
the company have men at work putting it in better
shape by Dlasting out the large boulders and
n some places,
At the mine all is life and bustle. The boarding house has been erected and the work of grading out for other buildings
is _being rushed ahead. Carpenters
and mil]wrights are busy framing timbers and doing
other preliminary
work, Preparatory
to erecting the mill and other necessary
buildings. A crew of men are constructing.

when attempted on a large scale. Superintendent Howard, Colonel Teeters and a
gentleman named Sand, who are the company’s representatives, feel confident:-that
the quartz will not become very ‘base, and
Mr. Sand says he is satisfied that he has
@ process by which he can work any of the
base ores in that section, not excepting
those of Meadow Lake district. He has,
we believe, made tests of quartz from the
last named place and has located one or
more mines there.
The prospects of the English Mining
Company are very bright indeed, and the
manner in which they are driving work
ahead shows that the managers are thorough
business men. ‘The town. of Graniteville
and other parts of the upper portion of the
erably as a result of the inauguration of
this new enterprise, and will continue to
derive benefit therefrom uniess Superintendent Howard succeeds in getting a mail
route established from Emigrant Gap to
the mine, a project which he has under
consideration, and in that event Graniteville
would cease'to bea supply point for “many
things needed at the mine and which would
be obtained at the Gap. Owing to the
deep snow that prevails throughout that
séction it would be almost impossible to
keep a road open-to Emigrant Gap in the
winter, It would be much easier to maintain communication with Graniteville. :
