Murphy & Judson Lease on Lee Netted Big Money The mines continue to attract the attention of the world. Last week two young men, Murphy and Judson, who had a lease on the Lee mine on Bull Hill, shipped a car load, consisting of nineteen tons, that netted them $81,000.
This was the richest car load ever shipped from the district and it transformed these two young men from poor laborers to capitalists. Now if some other poor fellow could get a chance at that place it would be all right.
But they are capitalists now and will do doubt be millionaires before they stop.

Isabella Mine Rich Strike at 820 FeetORE 80 PER CENT. GOLD?
——————
Extraordinary Reports of the Isabella Mine at Cripple Creek, Col.
DENVER, Col., Jan. 30—A special to The News from Cripple Creek, Col., says of the recent strike in Isabella ground:
"Your correspondent saw chunks of sylvanite that were three inches thick and solid metal, and chunks of the oxidized ore of the same width that he whittled with his pocket knife. No assays have been made on the rock; it is not necessary, but pieces of the free gold ore, if ore it can be called at all, run over $500,000 per ton.
The Mollie Gibson never produced any ore that carried more ounces of silver per ton that this Isabella ore does in gold. With every hour's work the streak is lengthening and widening. Adjoining this metallic body there is six feet of quartz that will run from $1,000 to $2,000 per ton.
"Manager Kilburn said to your correspondent:
" 'I do not like to say anything that will excite the people any more that they are at present. The metallic ore body has doubled in size both ways since yesterday morning. Some of the pieces of ore are 80 per cent gold. I never saw such mineral, and I do not believe that its like was ever mined in this or any other camp in the world.
We have had no assays taken on the rock, but a ton of it could be picked out that would run anywhere from $50,000 to $200,000 per ton.'
"Armed guards are watching the property. The strike was made in the new ore body at a depth of 820 feet below the surface. The chute has been cut at the seventh level, 200 feet above, and also at the fifth.
At the latter place an assay was obtained in the breast of the drift in two feet of ore that went better than $1,000 per ton. There is at least blocked out in the one level between the ninth and seventh levels, $5,000,000 worth of ore."

Isabella MineMines and Minerals, March 1899
(page 365)
Written for Mines and Minerals, by Prof. Arthur Lakes.
(page 365)
There is no doubt but a very rich strike of ore, perhaps the richest in the history of Cripple Creek, has lately been made in the Isabella mine at Cripple Creek. The exact nature and value of this at present are unascertainable, owing to the reticence of the company.
The nature of the ore appears to be very rich bodies of telluride and free gold, ores which, in a minor degree of richness, have characterized the mine from the outset.
The Isabella property is one of the oldest in the camp. It is situated on the Eastern slope of Bull hill, commanding a fine view of Pike's peak. A lofty castle rock of columnar phonolite crowns the hill above the mines, which was celebrated in the miners' strike as the "Strikers' fortress," commanding as it did a view of all the country round.
The rocks of this section are both andesitic breccia and phonolite. Most of the important mines on Bull hill are on veins in fissures in the massive eruptive rocks, a few such as the Victor, are on fissures in the breccia. The Bull Hill fissures are often faulted, owing to the brittle character of the massive rocks.
The veins are very numerous, trending in various directions. They vary from an inch to several feet in width, and show at times, well defined bodies of quartz in them, containing iron pyrites, iron oxide, fluorite, and other minerals forming the cement of the fragments of rock, occurring in the fissures. The country rock may also be impregnated with these minerals along the path of fissures.
The most well defined and continuous of these fissures or fissure systems are the veins of the Victor, Lee, and Isabella mines which are on the same, or closely allied veins, along the same zone of fissuring and ore deposition for a direct distance of upwards of a mile, and along these veins the mines are more or less in connection.
Two or more closely parallel veins are found in these mines, among which is the one in the Lee workings which has lately yielded such unprecedented riches. The course of the main vein fissures is often very circuitous and deflected. The country rock is partly massive trachy-phonolite and partly andesitic breccia. In the Lee shaft the vein is in the massive rock, in the Smuggler and Victor in the breccia.
The ore is in quartz, not unfrequently an opaline quartz like that deposited from a hotspring or geyser, showing the mode of genesis of the ore. This quartz may change into a yellow jasper. The precious metals are free gold, especially near the surface, and telluride ; the latter more with depth. The rich ore is in well defined shoots, continuing for considerable distance along the strike of the vein.

Isabella Rumors Cripple Creek.—(Special.) — In the bottom workings of the Isabella the management performed something like several thousand feet of work without encountering ore. It was for that reason that the last two dividends were passed, for they were hunting for ore and did not care to diminish the treasury reserve in dividends to the detriment of the development work that might mean the life and prosperity of the once-famous bonanza.
Considerable talk is being indulged in by people and all sorts of stories are going the rounds on the intentions of the company, but the story that is set firmest in the minds of well-informed mining men is that shortly the news will get out of rich ore bodies in the Orphan shaft and that then a consolidation of the two properties will be effected. That, of course, is conjecture.

24Info Title:
Isabella Mine Rich Strike at 900 Feet What was undoubtedly the richest strike ever made in the Cripple Creek district was encountered recently in the Isabella mine on the northeast slope of Bull Hill. The ore shoot is fifteen feet wide at a depth of 900 feet in heretofore unexploited territory. The same ore shoot is now found at the depth of 1,000 feet.
The territory above 900 feet has never been prospected, and it is believed that the shoot will run to the surface. The ore will run from twenty ounces to 400 ounces, which is $8,000 to the ton or $4 to the pound.
On the 900-foot level the ore is free and rusty gold, while on the 1,000, it is sylvanite and calaverite, some of it being four inches thick. So far as known, no other ore shoot ever found in this camp compares with it.
The mine some eight or nine years ago shipped the richest carload of ore ever mined from this camp, giving returns of $227,000. It is believed that a carload of the ore now found will run as high or even better than the rich carload of years ago.

Important Discoveries Made in Deeper Workings of Lee ShaftTwo important discoveries have been made in the deeper workings of the Lee shaft in the past few days.
At the 800-ft. level the No. 4 vein has been entered by cross-cut and from 6 to 8 ft. of ore exposed, returning 4 to 6 oz. gold per ton. This vein was first cut at the 1100-ft. level and in succession in the 10th and 9th levels. A cross-cut will be carried from each succeeding level, and from present indications it will extend upward to the surface, as little work has been prosecuted in this direction in the upper levels.
The second and more important find was made at the 900-ft level. At this depth a vein new to the property and lying parallel to the No. 4 has been encountered. The new vein is fully 4 ft. wide, and at a conservative estimate will ship at 2 oz. gold per ton.

The mill has been closed several months. Oxidized ores taken from the mine were run through the plant just before the closing.
Mr. Gilman has sampled the dump and is looking over the mill, and, in the event that the lease is taken, changes will be made, including the installation of new machinery.

257Info Title:
Isabella Mines Co. Stockholders Report Abstracts Manager A. C. Gardner and Superintendent Lester S. Grant of the Isabella Mines Co. have just issued a report to stockholders, as follows, covering operations of the property for the last several months:
Since our last report to you, the production by lessees from the Lee shaft has averaged about 30 narrow-gauge cars of ore per month, and an average of 12 narrow-gauge cars of ore per month from the Empire shaft, making a total average of 42 cars per month of low grade ore.
The Western Investment Co., having a lease on the Empire State property, has three sets of sub-lessees at work, and on company account they have sunk a winze below the eighth level of the Empire, on the junction of a dike with the No. 2 Empire vein; the winze is nearly 40 ft. deep, with good values in the bottom. This is the deepest workings on the property where commercial ore has been opened up.
The Co-Operative Mining and Leasing Co., working through the School Section shaft, has done 1,000 ft. of drifting and crosscutting on the Isabella ground, opening several promising veins, and steadily pushing exploration work, with the expectation of cutting pay ore at any time; the ground they are working has never been prospected before, and it looks very promising.
Fackerall & Co. continue to produce considerable ore, mostly of low grade, at the present time. Their production is not as large as it has been; they are now mining below the sixth level, with the intention of crosscutting for the same ore on the eighth level.
The Western Reduction Co., having a lease on the mill tailings dump, are treating the same in the Isabella mill, but up to the present time the results have not been very satisfactory. They are working steadily and expect to perfect the plant and put the enterprise on a profitable basis soon.
On your company account over 1,500 ft. of development work has been done during the last eight months, without any beneficial results, the same representing an outlay of about $8,000.
We now have eight sets of lessees at work on the property, which is a considerable falling off since our last report, due to the disappointing conditions in the property.
The board of directors, after discussing matters fully, thought best to sink the Lee shaft to a greater depth. Our fourteenth level, which is 1,100 ft. deep, corresponds with the 700-ft. level of the Golden Cycle and the 800-ft. level of the Vindicator.
Below these levels both the Cycle and the Vindicator have been mining their richest ore; the vein system on these properties and the Isabella have the same trend and are located on the same hill. The board of directors has decided to sink the shaft about 500 ft. deeper. This sinking will be done as rapidly as possible.
We are now down 125 ft. below the fourteenth level, and we are pleased to say the shaft rock is highly mineralized.
In order to do this work it was necessary to raise funds, so the company had to borrow $10,000 at 6 per cent.
It was found necessary to purchase quite a lot of new equipment; a number of air drills have been purchased, as well as a new air compressor. This new air compressor was installed lately and is working very satisfactory. It is the latest model Ingersoll-Rand, electrically driven, and is especially adapted to great variation of load and the high altitude of the district.
The cost of the foundation for the compressor and the preliminary work for sinking the shaft was near $3,500.
Since our last report to you, the production by lessees from the Lee shaft has averaged about 30 narrow-gauge cars of ore per month, and an average of 12 narrow-gauge cars of ore per month from the Empire shaft, making a total average of 42 cars per month of low grade ore.

Isabella One of the Most Active Properties of District The Isabella property, on Bull hill, is now one of the most active properties of the district. Every surface shaft is actively operated, besides three other surface leases. One surface lessee, working in the phonolite near the south side line of the company's estate, has some fair ore, while a lease in the Empire state, in the granite south of the contact, has some good ore opened up. The strike is of great importance to the company.
Besides these discoveries, the Fackerell and Knuth lease has as good ore as was ever opened in the Lee shaft during the last year and from which some rich shipments will be sent out.

Isabella Leasing Company Plans Stockholders of the Isabella Mines company are invited by a circular letter signed by C. M. Carson, vice-president of the company, to participate in the organization of the Isabella Leasing company, formed for the purpose of further development of the Isabella estate on Bull hill.
As set forth in the letter, development on company account has been impossible "because of the advance in price of mining material and labor, occasioned by the "War."
The lease, it is understood, will be granted the new company for a five-year term, with the privilege of a three-year extension, and royalties on ore marketed will be on a sliding scale.
The ground included in the lease extends from the eleventh level of the Lee shaft to the bottom, or fifteenth, level, west from the west sideline of the Orphan No. 1 and includes the Orphan No. 2, Ida Bell No. 1 and 2, Emma No. 1, Comet and Jack Rabbit lodes No. 1 to 4 inclusive, X. J. Gold, Bully, and Tom Thumb lode claims.
It is proposed, according to the circular, to start work on the 15th level of the Lee shaft, taking advantage of a cross-cut 1000 ft. long and to continue the cross-cut 300 ft. to cut the Sump and Buena Vista veins.
The veins would then be cut at a depth of 450 ft. below the Buena Vista and Sump oreshoots that produced approximately three million dollars.
It is further proposed to continue the cross-cut some 200 ft. farther to explore the junction of the Buena Vista and Maloney veins, the No. 2 vein, No. 3 vein, and finally the Emma vein.
All of these veins have produced ore in the upper workings.
Subscriptions to the leasing company stock will be limited to 6000 shares of the par value of $1 each.

Isabella Leasing Co. Tries to Get Running The old and well-known Isabella mine, during the active speculation that formerly prevailed in Cripple Creek stocks, was for years used as the basis for numerous stock-jobbing schemes.
Owing to the relative inactivity of this mine for some time past, a movement has been started by stockholders to interest a sufficient number of such stockholders in the proposed Isabella Leasing Co., to be capitalized at $25,000 with shares at one dollar par.
Capital derived from disposal of this stock will be devoted to development of new ground. Ore produced by the leasing company will be charged royalties ranging from 8% to 30%, depending upon grade of shipments.

Lee Shaft No Longer Base of Operations Directors of the Isabella Mines Co., at a special meeting held in Colorado Springs, have determined to change the base of operations from the Lee shaft to the Empire State shaft, situated at about the centre of the group.
The Lee shaft-house and machinery were recently destroyed by fire of unknown origin, entailing a loss in excess of $100,000 with insurance of about $25,000. All lessees, ten in number, will be given extensions of their respective leases.
The Lee will not be entirely abandoned and an electric hoist will be erected for use by the lessees who were mining a good grade of ore from the second level.

Lee Shaft Lessees Hoisting Ore Lessees on the third level at the Lee shaft of the Isabella Mines Co. have installed an air-hoist and are hoisting ore from the vein recently opened. The ore is sampling one ounce in gold, and, as the vein or dike is fully 12 ft. wide, ore is made rapidly.
One round of machine-drilled holes breaks more than the shovelers can handle on one shift.
