Miner recounts new gold ore find and cost-saving methods
Mr Chase and his brother descend in a mine shaft to a 300 foot level where a rich gold quartz vein was found in a rock crevice. He notes ore worth far more than prior mines with modern compressed air drilling slashing costs from 30 to 2.25 dollars per ton and enabling profitable extraction of low grade ore. An unrelated geological note places a lava-bed river crossing a Mesaspeak mountain 32000 feet above Yuba river level and 6000 feet above sea.
