HUNTOON VALLEY. -
A Technical Description of the
Great Wonder Mine.
Ed. Bulletin : The following
J sketch of the Great Wonder mine of
I Lee Brothers, in Huntoon valley,
may be ot interest to your mining
readers. Having made a critical ex
amination of their hill during three
days’ careful work, I report the ex
isting facts:
The mineral hill is clay, slats, tal
cose, old Silurian, much folded, por
phyritic and bloeky, with vertical
strata on northeast end ; northwest
half much stratified and dipping 40
deg. northwest. This section is high
ly mineralized and full of intermiua
ble ore streaks, carrying pay for 200
x600 feet,.. The hill is broken on three
planes, showing the lateral action of
the southwest and northeast dykes.
Three dykes of augite porphyry abut
the hill—one on northeast, several
hundred feet across, the others on
south southwest and southwest sides,
the latter being half a mile through'
it, and 800 feet above the desert
floor, the ipaiu one on the northeast
extending- southeast half a mile,
changing from acid porphyry to lip
idalite and a&dalusite, forming four
cones between which a belt of clay
extends 3D0 feet wide by a quarter
mile east, carrying high grade gold
and silver ores.
The dykes surrounding the hill
form six distinct and separate erup
tions. although undoubtedly origi
nating from one volcanic center,
which will probably reveal something
wonderful with depth.
Fracturing on a grand scale must
have occurred. At present the visi
ble ore bodies are much folded, but
hold a general strike southwest, dip
ping southeast 30 to 00 deg., but so
broken as to suggest local displace
ment, their true course being yet un
known. The main ore center will
probably be found midway between
the dykes in the region of dynamic
action, 400 feet west of uortheast
dykes and from 500 feet below apex
downward to unknown depths. In
-dications point to one main body,
where the surface ledges will con
verge with fractures below, radiating
in many directions.
About 800 feet west of the east
dyke commences the strata belt, sev
eral hundred feet north and south,
600 east and west, dipping 40 deg.
northwest, full pt strata®, feeders to
hidden bodies, which may all be quar
ried out and milled. These stratafied
auriferous bodies extend southwest
to smaller dyke and end in a large
high grade ledge, dipping 70 south
southeast, which abut into the main
porphyry hill, of silicious augite for
mation. I estimate the average grade
of all rock exposed -at $40 per ton
(much will mill $100), with streaks
under the hanging running into the
thousands, gold, aud carrying many
bases, as iron and lead in spots, sil
ver sulphides, othprwi.se free, but no
combined elements,as zinc,antimony,
etc.; rich and beautiful specimens of
silver ore of several thousand ounces
value, in which the quartz fairly
sparkles with silver sulphides, chlor
ides and bromide—the latter cover
ing all a sharp azure blue.
The main body of rock is hematite
oxide, uniformly auriferous. A semi
barren cone seems to run through
through the center of the ledges,
carrying low values; like iron. Con
centrates from the arrastra average
75 cents a pobnd in gold and silver.
On the northeast end of hill is drift
float which shows ledge matter to be
at least 30 inches wide. Here it is
straight gold, very rich, which cheers
the gold miner's heart to see— none
of your barren, vitreous stuff. The
exact locus of the hill is on the north
west side ofSthe southwest end of
Huntoon vallSy, ouo mile northeast
erly from its extreme corner, being
tin* lowest hill facing southeast at
valley floor, vole an lip crest of range
being distant northwest 1) miles in
air line, 35 miles southwest from
Hawthorne, 30 miles west of Bell
vilie and 33 unites north of Benton;
altitude of valley floor, 6,010 feet.
Grave errors have been committed
in present work, the Loo Brothers
running a 230 foot tunnel southwest,
following the dtift, paralleling the
formation, which they have not
struck, nor will they if they continue
in the same direction. They have
another tunnel into the hill at right
angles, 60 feet, but too high and near
the dyke to be of value. They should
concentrate their energies on one
horizontal opening at base of moun
tain, starting-Jow enough to barely
allow sufficient grade for dump and
mill at mouth. Future action will be
along this line. The intention now
is to run a horizontal 1,200 feet noith
west, commencing 400 feet west of
the dyke, tapping the center of
the hill 280 feet below its apex and
800 feet belotr the'hill adjoining, nod
pas* through or above tho twain ore
centor; cost of tunnel, $13,000, re
quiring nine months to complete.
If developments justify, the plau is
to equip a 60-statnp mill at mouth of
tunnel, and pipe water from spring
three miles distant. There is abund
ance of water and plenty of nut pine
timber for stulls and fuel. .
The above are the plans of the
New York company behind Byron E.
Shear of Denver, in case everything
is satisfactory. The property is now
practically bonded for $100,000, of
which $10,000 is to be paid down.
The agreement is to complete ex
ploration work within nine months,
which must result in the final com
pletion of the sale. From conver
sation with Mr. Shear I learn that
he was surprised at the maguitude
and value of the property.
A word to prospectors: Nothing
of value is loft in the valley,ithe min
eral zones above mentioned being all
located. No diorites or hornblende
andalusite (Bodie formation) are in
eyide-uee, but the volcanic action cut
ting tha old talcose slate* has been
something wonderful, everything ex
cept the two isolated sections above
noted being covered or swallowed up.

Chiatovich Win3.
In the U. S. Circuit Court of Ap
peals in'San Francisco last week the
judgment was affirmed iu the case of
John Chiatovich vs. L. J. and L. E.
Hanehet.t, iu the sum of $1,700.
Chiatovich obtained a judgment in
the lower court against the Han
chetts for libel. Chiatovich is a mer
chant at Silver Peak, and the Han
chetts had a lease on the Silver Peak
mines. They posted the town with
notices to the effect that any one who
bought goods of Chiatovich would
not be considered friends of the Hun
chetts and could not find fault if they
suffered iu consequence.
K. of P. Delegates.
At the last meeting of Esmeralda
Lodge No. 16, K. of P., the following
representatives to the Grand Lodge,
which meets at Virginia City in June,
were elected.
J. II. McBride, A. Summerfield,
G. S. Green, W. A. Ingalls, S. H'
Rosonthul, A. Laiolo.
My son lias been troubled for years
with chronic diarrhea. Some time
ago I persuaded him to take some of
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Di
arrhea Remedy. After using two
bottles of the 23 cent size he was
cured. I give this testimonial hop
ing that some one similarly afflicted
may read it and bo benefited. — i'ho.
