Kimberly the United is becoming known all
over States as the
••BILLION DOLLAR .MINING
CAMP.”
That name was given to it by
the President of one of the largest
bond-investment and brokerage
houses in the East, having ofiices
in Chicago. Cleveland, Detroit,
Pittsburg. New York and Atlanta,
and after a very careful inspection
of the camp and its wonderfully-
rich free-gold showings.
The following are some of the
favoraole interviews and mentions
of the camp and especially of those
rich properties taken from The
Kimberly News, and under the
following dates:

By the President referred to
above: “Never luis such a great
ore body of rich gold been found
in an area of a square mile, or
more, anywhere in the world. It
is not one vein of rich ore. It is
not just one rich mine, or a few
rich spots. Just a mountain of
ore or several mountains chore,
panning from $ 10 .ou to $lo,qoo.00
and even to SlOO.oiMj.UO per ton.
It is beyond description, for how
can even the most prolific writer
describe things which the imagina¬
tion cannot formerly have conceiv¬
ed. Kimberly is the place of Op¬
portunity. It is the Biliion-Dol-
lar Mining Camp". KEEP YOUR
EYES ON KIMBERLY."

have never expected to tind any
place prolific where nature had with been her so
nor so bounteous
free distribution of free gold.
Gold appears everywhere and in
nuggets, ribbon gold and wire
gold. To say that 1 was urotoural¬
ly impressed by it and enthused
to a high degree but faintly ex¬
presses the effect which the per¬
sonal inspection of the camp made
upon me. 1 am happy in the fact
of having invested here at its be¬
ginning "

"From the amount of gold le-
leased from nature’s repositories
in the depth of the earth, it (would
appear that mythical gnomes have
for‘a time relaxed their vigilance,
allowing their precious charge the
right of way to the outer world
for the purpose of enriching and
blessing mankind. Two miles of
development is the point reached
in Kimberly’s progress. The work
has reached a total of more than
1<),000 feet representing over
$150,000 in labor.”
MAisrn 10, 11)10.
"The mineral area has been
opened in spots for a distance of
eight miles in length by live miles
in width. The assays range from
$1 24 to $2,240.02 per ton. Every¬
where can be found the gold in
form. Every cut, trench, shaft,
tunnel, winze and upraise—yes.
the very dykes which rise above
the surface-yield gold that not
only pans, but which is visible
without a magnifying glass. It is
being sacked and shipped to vaults
as 'jewelry.' ”

By Dr. Frederick A. Wheeler,
of Chicago who during the past do
veais. has visited, or reported tip-
• on or recommended investments
for about every mining camp in
Colorado, Idaho. Arizona. Mon¬
tana. Oregon. Utah and Nevada:
“To my great surprise 1 found in
numerous places free gold appear¬
ing' in the faces of the cliffs which
form a part of the dyke, which is
Dio feet wide in places and which
is mineralized for about 7.000 feet
in length. 1 visited at least 25
dumps, all of which were in vein

Daily Sentinel: u \Ve have care¬
fully inspected the several proper¬
ties in Kimberly and personally
panned the ore from more than a
dozen ledges and found rich gold
in all of them. The showing is
woneerful. We supposed from
the reports received in the Hast

but we are to say that our
investigations have verilied the re¬

By F. H. Collins, a well-known
financier and mining man of Chi¬
cago. with many years of exper¬
ience in all Western mining States:
“Kimberly is becoming widely
known as the 'Billion Dollar Min¬
ing Camp' and justly so, as I am
able to say, in the opinion of min¬
ing experts who have gone over
the district for its length and
breath, observing conditions with
keen and trained eyes, watching
the opening of the great high-
grade bodies of .ore, where, AS
THE MINERS GO DOWN THE
VALLES CLIMB UP. With its
magniticant ore bodies carry¬
ing such values it is superfluous to
say that Kimberly is destined to
become, the phenomenally productive
in precious yellow metal. It
has the call., Already the cry is
•Kimberly,’ and no act of man can
stay the boom that has set in."

By G. E. Vunder Cook, editor
of The Evening Wisconsin, Mil¬
waukee, J. W. McAlpme, mining
investor and broker, and Thomas
James, mine owner m New Mexi¬
co, all of Milwaukee: "The Kim¬
berly proposition is the biggest
and squarest mining deal in Ameri¬
ca. Tlie wonderful stories that
reached our party in Milwaukee
were of a nature to make us
skeptical. We could not accept
the statements made with the us¬
ual discount allowed for exaggera¬
tion. Our party are men not new
to the game. We were given the
fullest and freest opportunity to
carefully inspect Kimberly and we
piel<e,d found our colors own samples. Why,
we the even roadway from samples

in nearly till of the work¬
ings. Kimberly is a great big
wonder-work to us It is in the
hands of men who. in the language
of Kipling, do tilings’. Eastern
men are glad that the square min¬
ing' men of Nevada have taken
steps, by legislation already on
the statute books, to put an end
to Eastern fakirs who invade Ne¬
vada, secure a lease or a prospect
and near proceed some mining stock developement
to sell to the
credulous.”

By O. H. McConoughey of Chi¬
cago, ested for Western many yats heavily inter¬
in mining: “Kim¬
berly has an abundance of pure
springs water . . .
The fact of an abundance of water
means more to a mining camp than
merely convenience, cheapness and
health of the people living in the
camp. It means that the ore can
he handled and reduced to bullion
more cheaply. handled It means that ore
can lie at a profit which,
in other camps, cannot lie handled
at all. It adds to the assurance
that Kimberly will be an early,
steady and large producer of pro¬
fits for a great many years.”

of the Ann Arbor, (Mich.) Mining
School, with 17 years of choice
practical experience in the mining
regions of Canada. Mexico and
the United States, including Cal¬
umet and Hecla. Butte, Bisbee,
Canpnea, have 1 lomesteak and Goldfield.
“I seen big showings that
turned out to be big mines- mines
that have paid their capitalization
over and over again: mines that are
known to the whole world over,
but I had to come to Kimberly to
see the biggest of them all.
Kimberly is a new camp,but it is
a big one the biggest that I ever
hare seen or expect to see."

"What is considered a-, one of
the most gigantic, important and
far-reaching combinations of capi¬
tal effected in the rniningactivities
of Nevada for many years was
consummated last week when the
great Independence and llilj Top
properties of the this district were
taken over, by Kimberly Con¬
solidated Mines Company, the
transaction involving an expendi¬
ture of $025,000.”
By 1. L. Cole, of Seattle, Wash.,
prominent in the mining world as
an expert in mill construction and
in operating mines: T have nev¬
er seen so great a showing of gold
with the same amount of develop¬
ment. If it does not make a great
mining district 1 will lie surprised.
1 panned yielded rock with the moss gold on it
that a string of that
was surprising, phenominally showing the ore
to he rich, even at
the surface.”
By J. M. Gray, banker and
financier, of Atlanta, Ga.:
statements do not tell half of
what’s there. 1 am now waiting
anxiously all of to return home and tell
my friends the great oppor¬
tunities that are before us to make
fortunes.”
J. H. Helmer, of Atlanta, Ga.,
for *20 years a mining engineer,
gold extensively interested in California
mines, and at present engag¬
ed in developing mica anti kaolin
deposits in Georgia, recently visit¬
ed Kimberly and stated that his
lead in the camp will be followed
by many other representative men
from his State.
Charles E. Barnurn sent the fol¬
lowing wire to his firm of leading
brokers in Cleveland, < >hio, on
April 12: t . Kimberly has not
been overdrawn in the least. Rich
in gold beyond description. Gold
everywhere, and an abundance of
water make and everything which needed to
success, is assured be¬
yond question. Kimberly today
is the wonder of the world. As¬
sure all investors that they are in
the best and not only hold what
they have but secure all they can
pay for.”

By J. G. Knapp, of Fitzgerald,
Georgia: “1 consider Kimberly
and the prospects before it one of
the Twentieth Century maivels.
After a two week's trip among
these mountains and seeing the
showings with my own eyes, I will
make the prediction that the out¬
put fiom this camp will startle the
world when the mill is put into
operation. It seems as if the
whole country for a radius of live
miles is a perfect gold mine.”

By W. j. Grindle. financier of Los
Angeies. Cal.: "1 never imagined that so
great a showing could be made with the
development accomplished up to the pre¬
set time. I saw more gold today than 1
have ever seen before in all my exped¬
ience. The showing is really wonderful.
It will be one of the biggest if not the
biggest camp in Neveda.”
versed By R. mining B McGinnis* one of the best
States, engineers in the United
and representing the Chicago Ex¬
ploration Company, composed of multi¬
millionaires: 4 pronounce the minerali¬
zation in Kimberly to be the most exten
sive discovered in the history of mining.
The conditions noticed are exceptionally
favorable for ore deposition; and the
showings on the surface and irf the work¬
ings penetrating the veins, warrant the
opinion that this is one of the greatest
gold «ein systems in a like area in all the
gold regions of the country."
