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

so the great Nevada Hills mine of
Falryiew. 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. Kudosed Is a table
showing the rungo of values along
the vein during my examination.
These unsays, while astounding to
tho average man at first sight, rep
resent tho valuoa ol tho hlgb grado

Your plan of leasing nflornnto
blocks Is, In my opinion tho best
method of development In the Im
mediate future. Your leasers will
undoubtedly follow tho ore, and their
work will show, beyond a doubt,
tho ben method of development

mill the royalties accruing will pro

In conclusion I feel perfectly nafe
In saying that YOU 1 1 A V 1-3 Till
