N'ev.. March 24, "OS. ' To the Pacific States Trust Co. Hawhide, New Gentlemen: In compliance with your request of March 20, l'JOS. I have examined your property, the Silent Friend, Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4 lode claims. This, as you know, was not my first iy, troductlon to the property, having been on the ground many times, $lnce July, 1907. These claims contain, &n told, about 73 acres and are. !u compact group, about 3000 few- tu length bv 1200 feet in width, They are now being surveyed for, patent, which will definitely de'ipniilne their area. They lie in tho heart of the Rawhide Dis trict, about 1500 feet south of the Royal Tiger, liushwacker. Wonder King and Jack Pots, and adjoining in the Rawhide Hills, Sheep Traii, Salmon and other noted properties. The topography of the group is an unbroken side hill, sloping to the southeast at an angle of about 35 degrees. This hill is probably the richest In camp, holding as it does the extremely rich Royal Tiger, Jack Pot, liushwacker and Sheep Trail veins, all of which are being energet ically developed. Tho geology of tho Silent Friend group Is strikingly similar to that of the proven properties, not only of this district but of the best camps in the State. The country rock is a fine grained white, or cream colored rhyollto, greatly altered and fissured. This alteration is directly due to a daclte dike, which runs tho full length of the claim, 3000 feet. This dike, which is about 40 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 slliclfied 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 this West contact tor hanging wall of the dike) there are three well defined veins, all carrying values, the upper or west vein, which is about four feet In width, being the richest. v The similarity of the Silent Friend to the other well-known mines s'lio.utd be noted here. The fornKtion bj Identical with that of the fam ous Mohawk of (loldfleld, as is also the occurrence of the ore, the Silent Friend ore, however, carrying a lar ger proportion of silver. The Montgomery-Shoshone, of Bullfrog, is slm,-. jlar in ore find occurrence; as Is a for their enormous production. Tho veins of the Silent Friend are unde niably of the kind and they possess possibilities of large ore bodies not to ho expected In tho ordinary fis sure vein. It must be remembered that ores of this class are formed by the replacement of the rock by the No. Claim fluid Silver Tot'l Vul. Oz, per ton Value Oz. per ton Value Per toll Xo. 1. Silent Fr.

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 aro known to be the most productive In the world, as witness the Comstock lode, the veins of Cripple Creek, Tono pah, Uodie, Ploche, Ooldfleld, Fair view and many other camps noted Dilnerallzed waters, and hunco are. not confined to uny narrow fissures or channels. To lllustrat ethls point the nctual assay values of tho cropplngs may bo taken. On tho Silent Friend No. 2 at the south cropping, I took a wimple across 20 feet of the dike or tho hanging wall side. The returns gave s.00 gold and sliver, 4 07.. per ton. Also across three feet of quartz the assays return was $11.00 gold, anil silver til. 2 making a total of J75.20 per ton.
