Mines and Mining Notes From Western Nevada and Butte
The Boston Con. mine at Bodie shows a three foot ledge of $25 ore and large in sight. The Virginia Report cites claim jumpers, while Capt. J. R. DeLamar’s property runs a 1,100 foot shaft and 3,100 foot tunnel with thirteen Griffin mills and a 300 ton per day cyanide plant. A 500 ton tailings plant is planned as 226 men work and power bills are rebated. Several new mills planned in Olinghouse with ten ton daily capacity and gold yields promising a quarter million next year. The Dexter-Tuscarora Consolidated Gold Mines Company is formed with 500,000 shares, led by E. Aims, S. B. Milner, and George E. Aims. The Anaconda mine near Butte produces 2,000 tons daily copper ore with vast smelting works, wood use and gold/silver byproducts offsetting costs.
