The The departmnel of the interior has just issued a bulletin relating to min ing in Sou-hern Oregon, in which the mines in Jackson connty are de scribed as the result of a geological survey. The bulletin is replete with valuable information, giving as it does a history of all mines in the neighborhood of Medford. '' The pamphle-.. first deals with the gold quartz .nines, from the descrip tion of which the following is take.-.t "The most productive gold quartz mines which were in operation .in this area during the summer of 1908 were the Braden and the Opp. The Granite Hill and Mountain' Lion mines, although not now being work ed, have also been fairly itnKii'tant producers within the last few years. T,heie are many mines and prospects on which work is not now being done, some of which have never produced, some of which have produced values of a few hundred dollars, and a few of which have produced values of several thousand dollars. At present some development is in progress on new prospects and on mines which were until recently closed. The total gold production of the gold quartd mines of the area in 1IHI7 was about $70,000. "Many of ihe veins and vcinlcls have never produced important bod ies of me. but only "pockets." some of which, although filling but small spaces, were remarkably rich, the gold usually having been coarse.
