Another of the old river channels
‘in: Butte county, California, has been
pened by the Dix Butte Mining Co.
and will be producing gold in a few
weeks. Frank Maloney, president of
the company, was in’ Reno with sev“eral ounces of coarse gold extracted
“from the gravel struck in araise
‘from the tunnel through which oper=ations will be conducted, which he
brought from the mine. The display
“included several nuggets containing
$5 to $25 each.
The Dix Butte channel is about
fifteen miles north and west.of the
“Genii property and cuts the great
Willard dike at its widest point. This
‘ dike is one of the principal sources
of gold contained in these ancient
rivers. Wherever they have been
“opened a rich harvest of gold has
‘been made.
Six men, placer miners of experiente, worked for eight years to develop the Dix Butte channel, driving
acrosscut tunnel 2,400 feeta nd a
raise 185 feet to reach the gravel.
‘Two years ago, with resources exhausted, they sought financial aid
iO. complete the work. The Dix Butte
* Mining Co. took over the property
and supplied funds for new. equipment. The original owenrs, Harry
-Sheehy, Andrew Engstrom, Carl Slocum, J. M. Kellar, John Sund, and
A. Benedium, stayed with the pro‘ject and became employees of the
* company.
The Dix Butte Mining Co. droye
* the tunnel ahead $00 feet to a point
* under the channel and raised up to
‘ the bed of the river. The gold shown
‘.in Reno by President Maloney was
* the first _extracted, from gravel
«struck inthe raise. The gravel con> talus a fine black sand that Presid@nt Maloney says runs $1,000 a ton
~ im gold and platinum.
The company has water power
frOmits ditch and expects to start
siHicing some time in September
when sufficient water is available.
