Rawhide, Xev., March 24, 'OS.
To the Pacific States Trust Co,
Rawhide, New
Gentlemen:
In compliance with your request
of March 20, 190S. I have examined
your property, the Silent Friend,
Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4 lode claims. This,
as you know, was not my first in
troduction to the property, having
been on the ground many times since
July, 1907.
These claims contain, all told,
about 75 acres and are ih compact
group, about 3000 feet In length by
1200 feet in width. They are now
being surveyed for patent, which will
definitely determine their area. They
lie In the heart of the Rawhide Dis
trict, about 1500 feet south of the
Royal Tiger, Rushwacker, Wonder
King and Jack Pots, and adjoining
In the Rawhide Hills, Sheep Trail,
Salmon and other noted properties.
The topography of the group Is an
unbroken side hill, sloping to the
southeast at an angle of about 3 5
degrees. This hill Is probably the
richest in camp, holding as It does
the extremely rich Hoyal Tiger, Jack
Pot, Bushwacker and Sheep Trull
veins, all of which are being energet.
lcally developed.
The geology of the Silent Friend
group Is strikingly similar to that
of the proven properties, not only of
this district but of the best camps fn
the State. The oountry rock is a
fine grained white, or cream colored
rhyolite, greatly altered and fissured.
This alteration Is directly due to a
dacite dike, which runs the full
length of the claim, 3000 feet. This
dike, which is about 4 0 feet wide, can
be traced for over a mile running
due north and south and dipping to
the west. It is so greatly altered
and siliclfied that the original char
acter of the rock is hard to deter
mine. Silification becomes more
complete as the hanging wall is ap
proached, and it is here the Import
ant ore bodies occur. Along tills
West contact (or hanging wall of the
dike I there are three well defined
veins, all carrying values, the upper
or wst vein, which is about four feet
In width, being the richest.
T ie similarity of the Silent Friend
to the other well-known mines
should be noted here. The formation
Is identical with that of the fam
ous Mohawk of tioldfield, as is also
the occurrence of tho ore, the Silent
Friend ore, however, carrying a lar
ger proportion of silver. The Montgomery-Shoshone,
of Bullfrog, is sim
ilar In ore and occurrence; as is al-
for their enormous production. Tho
veins of tho Silent Friend are unde
niably of the kind and they possess
possibilities of large oro bodies not
to he expected In the oullnary fis
sure vein. It must be remembered
that ores of this class are formed by
the replacement of tho rock by the

so the great Nevada Hills mine of
Falrvlew. The veins of all these
mines are of the tertiary period, and
have been classed as porphyritlc, or
porphyry veins by tho more noted
geologists. Tertiary veins are known
to be tile jnost productive in the
w-orld, is witness tho Comstock lode,
the veins of Cripple Creek, Tono
jiah, Ilodie, IMoche, tioldfield,, Fair
view and many other camps noted
mineralized waters, and honca are
not confined to uny narrow flsWures
or channels.
To illustrat etlils point the actual
assay values of the cropping may
bo taken. On the Silent Friend No.
2 at the south cropping, I tnok a
Knmple across 20 feet of the dike or
tho hanging wall side. The returns
KHro-fS.DO gold and silver, 4 oz. per
ton. Also across three feet of iiarlz
the assays return was J 11.60 gold,
nnd silver 61.2 making a total of
$75.20 per ton. Knilosed Is a table
showing the range of values aloag
the vela during my examination.
These assays, while astounding to
the average man at first sight, rep
resent tho values of tho high grade
ore only, and nro selected Irom over
3tl assays 1 took when In quest ot
high values. However, them nro two
outcropping shoots, which show
those high values nnd they llo over
1000 feet apart. Thoy both show a "
width of oyer two feet, and while the
oro may iot bo continuous for this
dlntunve, . tho existence of other
shoot,' is eomiluslvely proven both by
". "float" and tho placer gold In
jte washes below tho ledge.
Tho open cut on the west side of
the Silent Friend No. 3 has opened
the upper vein to good advantage, .
nnd 1 advise pushing the work at

Your plan of leasing n!turtate

undoubtedly follow the ore, und their
work will hIiow, beyond a doubt,
tho best method of development
work to ho permanently pursued,
iind the royalties accruing will lro
wuio funds for this purpose.
In conclusion 1 feel perfectly safe
1n snylng that YOU HAVIO TUB
IIICBT l'.VIKVKUl-Kn PIKCH OK

TRICT. Tho showings on tho Silent
Friend group nro far better than nny
other property hero has had on tho
mirfaco, not excepting the Royal Ti
ger or tho tirutt or llalloon lllll
properties, and many other claims
whoso present oro bodies wero found'
only after tho most persistent search
both above nnd underground and
whoso Important "finds" wero, In a
measure, accidental. You have a
well deriued (like to fiillnw, with
well marked ore shoots actually out

I believe you will make of the HI

tion alone will soon attract wide
spread at tendon.
