A Big Body of Rich Ore Discovered --Sumpter People Are Enthusias tic Over It As the Golconda mine Is owned in Pendleton largely, a large number of people of the town and county hav ing Invested In Its stock, the follow ing from the Baker City Democrat Is of local interest: -A true story of the Golconda strike was brought to the Democrat by A, H. Gunnell, of the firm of Foster & Gunnell, who represent an eastern mining company In Baker City., Mr, Gunnell stated: "I spent two days as the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Meikle, of the Golconda mine. Superintendent Melkle show ed mo through the entire property and I personally Inspected the now strike on the 200-foot level. The ore vein discovered Is the continuation of the old ledge, which was lost and sought after very assiduously by Flood and Thatcher. The reports that have been spread have not been overdrawn. Mr. Melkle worked on a new theory and encountered the pay streak by the use of a winzs from the 200-foot level. Ho only Avent down six feet until he struck the ore. The rich vein Is from 12 to 18 Inches wide, and below that there is three feet of heavy shipping 01 e, which averages from ?750 to $1000 to the ton by actual assays. The ore veins are widening out as depth is attained. The big strike, or small and narrow vein of rich ore, runs as high as $50,000 to the ton. Mr. Melkle has one ton of this oro sacked up for shipment. On the dump he has 100 tons of high-grade milling oro that will mill $100 to the ton, besides the concentrates. "Development work will be pushed as rapidly as possible, and what they are doing is opening up big bodies or milling ore on the 300-foot level. An ore shoot four feet wide has been opened up that goes $50to the ton. Everybody In Sumpter and In that whole camp is jubilant over the big And. It means much for that coun try. "You can say that the Golconda strike Is not a fairy strike, and It Is not as reported in some of the local papers. It is a fact that the big strike is made, and that it Is p'roba- bly the largest and most valuable pay streak in the camp."
