A Dredging or Hydraulicing
Proposition. Yankee Greek
'I am the principal owner of a hloek of ground
on Yankee creek, about seven ncties long, extend
ing from No. 1 Below.Discovery down to the mouth
of the creek
Pav has been located all along for a distance of
about three miles from the upper end, and pretty
well prospected and cross-cut. J
The average depth of the ground is from seven
to twenty feet. The top is all black muck, that can
be moved freelv. No rock bigger than one’s fist.
The width of the pay. fori a distance of about
three miles, ‘is from 100 to 200 feet. Crosscuting
work indicates that the ground will go from 15
cents to $1 per square foot of bedrock. My belief
is that the pay will average 50 cents per foot
I have a ditch on the grouod. three miles long,
together with water rights. The ground is prettv j
well cleared. There is also a drain, three miles !
long, with tho water right. 1 also have a water I
right on Beady Bullion creek, from which water ]
can be brought to Yankee creek with a ditch less
than a mile long (4.900 feet), which will give four
sluicebeads of water, with a pressure or fall of 120
feet, being 1000 feet to the work from the ditch.
After doing away with the muck, there will be
an
from four to six feet of dirt to handle. The pwy
runs mostly in the bedrock of porphyry and slate.
The ground is virgin, only about fll, COO having
been taken out by windlass in prospecting.
Prospecting work during the present winter has
resulted in finding values that run up to fl per
square foot of bedrock.
The Flume Dredge Company has a dredge above
this ground, which has been in operation for the
last three seasons.
The Government road crosses Yankee creek. I
also have a road down the creek that connects with
the Government road.
I am also the agent for owners of ground other
than that held bv myself. i
The ground can be worked either with dredge,
drag line scraper, or by bydraulicing.
1 will either sell the ground or give a lease oa
it. if the prospect is satisfactory to the buyer, a
cash payment will be expected. A rood bargain
will be given to the right party.
For further information, terms, etc., aail oa
ground, or write or telegraph me. ii'
