"WALLACE MACGREGOR."
Here Is a detailed report of the property by Edward Hoffman, the consulting engineer and mine
manager of the Rich Gulch Wonder Mining Company:
WONDER. Nevada, April 4, 1907.
To the President and Directors Rich Gulch Wonder Mining Company,
Gentlemen: I have examined the Rich Gulch mining property, and beg to submit the follow
ing report:
The property Is located in the Wondor Mining District, Churchill County, Nevada. The fol
lowing mining claims are embraced In the roup: Rich Gulch, Golden Fleece, Porcupine, Good Hope
and Butterfly. There are about 95 acres In all. This property la one of the best located in the dis
trict, being In the center of the mineral cone.
The property carries two strong quarts leads. The main vein can be traced 3,000 feet
through the Golden Fleece, Rich Gulch and Porcupine claims.
A shaft on the Golden Fleece claim, )nst commenced. Is eight feet deep and has a good show
ing. The ore here carries gold and sile.- values of from 18.00 to 122.00 per ton.
There are other openings on thp vein on the Rich Gulch and Porcupine claims from which as
says have been taken that give returns cf fiom $7.50 to $404.00.
The main vein as revealed on the urfee and In shallow surface cuts varies in width from
four to twenty feet for the entire dlstauce of 3,000 feet through the property.
This vein unquestionably is one of Ihe strongest in the Wonder Mining District.
The strike of the vein Is northwest aud southeast, similar to the strike In the vein on the
Spider and Wasp and the Nevada Wonder t.h9 other wo Important properties of the dls.mt.
There has also been opened 'ii oi the Rich Gulch property, striking east and wast, a quartz
vein which crosses the Rich Gulch and Good Hope claims. Surface essays on this vein give average
returns of $21.00 per ton.
I have examined the properties which neighbor the Rich Gulch, and find that the Golden Won
der, adjoining the Rich Gulch on the southeast, has opened up the same vein and is In ore on the sur
face that assays $200.00 per ton.
On the Colorado group, adjoining the Rich Gulch property on the northwest, there has been
opened up a continuation of the Rich Gulch vein, and shipping ore has been disclosed In four places.
The Billy-the-Kld group to the north, owned by the Ruby Wondair Mining Company, has sev
eral openings from which they are sacking ore that assays from $200.00 to $600.00 per ton.
The proved width and length of the main ledge, on the Rich Gulch group would stamp the
property as worthy of the highest development, were the assays only half as flattering as those al
ready obtained. Taking the width and length of the ledge, In conjunction with the splendid assays ob
tained, showing the presence of large bodies of both milling and shipping ore, I do not hesitate to
say that the property owned by the Rich Gulch Wonder Mining Company compares at this time with
any mining property In the Wonder District, barring the Nevada Wonder and the Spider and
Wasp alone, which are in a much more forward state of development.
Acting under Instructions I have engaged a force of twelve miners, and have commenced the
development of the property. Respectf illy submitted,
(Signed) EDWARD HOFFMAN, E. M.
