by a geologist and mining expert of
worldwide reputation. Professor Ben
Jainin Silllman, who spent several
months there, then being connected
w Ith the United States surveying corps,
and In his official report says:
"Here are countless millions of tons
of rich gold quartz reduced by the
great forces of nature to a condition
rady for the application of the hydraul
ic process, while the entire bed of the
Klo Grande for over forty miles Is a
sluice, on the bars of which the gold
derived from the wearing away of the
gravel banks has been accumulating
for countless ages, and now lies ready
for extraction by the most approved
methods of river mining. The thick
ness of the Rio Grande gold gravel ex
ceeds In many places 600 feet, or nearly
three times that of ' the like beds in
California, while the average value per
cubic yard Is believed ta be greater
in the New Mexico beds than in any
other such accumulations yet discov
ered. 'I have made a reconnafsance of the
whole of this gravel along the
RJo Grande, and have examined with
all the care possible in the time at my
command the character of the gravel
and Its contents of gold. Nothing. I
am persuaded, since the discov
ery of California and Australia Is com
parable for its Immeasurable resources
of gold available by the hydraulic pro
cess to the. deep placers or the Klo
Grande."
