The Lend of this Company consists of about ISO
Acres, In Ir ccklenburg county, North Carolina, about
OH miles from the town of Charlotte.
On this property flfcon nhafls or pits have been opened
and sunk to various depths, from 10 to85 feet, demon
strating the exlf tence of three parallel veins of ore of
about 2 feet In width and about 15 feet apart, converging
to a comwen centre at the depth of about 15) feet, form
ing one Immense mass or vein of ore, extending in
length through .be property more than half a mile.
1 bore are also on this property other veins of ore unex
plored All these ores are known as the Brown Ores,
and are very rich, yielding an average of about 200 pur
ton livo results having been demon-
ten by tbe rude Working of the mines for several
years past, t e rb?k of Investment In undeveloped pro
perty Is not incurred, and by the application of modern
mining and reducing machinery the Company anticipate
an Immediate and large return for their money.
raving an ore that readily yields 9200 per ton, some
estimate can.be made of tbe value ofihU property. With
t ho present Imperfect svstem ot mining, ten tons of this
ore can be taken out and reduced dally Irom every shaft
opened, at an expense not exceeding (25 per ton, leav
ing a net daily profit of $1750 for each shaft worked by
tho Company.
The large working capital reserved will enable the
Company at once to procure and erect the best modem
nischlnery for manipulating the ores, by means of which
the yield will be la gely increased. ' ,
These mines, whilst they produce oros richer than
those of Colorado or Nevada, have many advantage
over them, particularly in an abundance oflutl and
cheap labor, and the facility with which they ean be
worked (luring the entire year: whilst tboie ot Colorado
and Nevada cau only be worked daring the warm
weather.
A test asray of an average (specimen of the ore from
the Carson Mines was made as late as the 27th o
January ot the prenent year, as will appear from the Iol
lowiug certificate ot FiofeMnrt Booth and Garrett, the
A assyer" of tbe Philadelphia Mint I .
i
Philadelphia. January 27, I860. ,
Dear Kir i We have carefully asuavel the sample of
ore irom "Carson Mine," North Carolina, and find It t
yield ten ounces nluo pennyweights of pure gold to the
ton of ore. 'lbe ooln value Is ihereiore 1216-03 per ton
ot ore. Yours, respeotfuUy.
