Last Dollar Mine During 1904 The Last Dollar, on Bull Hill, which has for a long time maintained a steady output from the vein originally developed in company operations, has been rewarded for its recently adopted policy of leasing its non-producing territory by the development of a large body of payable ore in a vein which, though known for a long time, was not considered sufficiently strong to justify further prospecting.

Last Dollar Findings at 1300 Feet Bring Hopes Colorado Springs. Jan. 30.—The new strike that was recently made in the bottom of the 1300-foot level of the Last Dollar property, on Bull Hill, is holding out remarkably well, as at the present time it is measuring about 10 feet in width, with every bit of this returning values of 2½ ounces to the ton.
The officers of the company are feeling remarkably well over the new find, as it was generally considered by outsiders if not officials that the company had seen its best days. It only goes to show that any piece of property in the camp may furnish a surprise at any moment.
The remarkable part of the new find is that it was encountered at such a depth, and the stockholders and the officers of the company are now of the opinion that the future of the Last Dollar property is remarkably bright.
The opening of this ore body at 1300 feet again demonstrates that with depth properties are producing richer ore than they ever did from the ore shoots opened near the surface.

About two years ago work was suspended in the 1,200-foot level on account of water, but owing to the drainage tunnel only a few buckets of water are now brought to the surface each shift from the new cross-cut.

Last Dollar High Grade Ore Shipments The Last Dollar mine located on Bull hill, sent out during the past month over 800 tons of ore, every pound of which is smelting grade. The ore was broken in drifts extending from every level from the 100 foot point down to 1200 feet. It has just been made public that this mine recently made some shipments of exceptionally high grade ore. One carload was settled for at the rate of $1960 per ton or $39,200 for the lot.
Two other cars are said to have returned $48,000. This ore was uncovered at the bottom of the main shaft which is 1250 feet in depth.
The mine is closely guarded, which is indication enough that something better than low grade ore is being mined.

Important Strike in Last Dollar at 1250 Feet of Iron Gold Ore One of the most important strikes in the district was made Sunday night last, when a 20 inch vein of iron sulphide ore was opened in the 1250 foot level of the Last Dollar mine.
This is the first strike in the district of iron gold values. The ore averages 42 ounces of gold to the ton, besides 50 to 100 ounces of silver, and is well up in copper.

Last Dollar Strike The showing being made at this time upon the phenomenal strip in the 1,050-foot level of the Last Dollar mine at Victor is of such a remarkable nature that the company has determined to sink its main shaft another 100 feet, making the total depth 1,150 feet.
The reason why more is not known about this wonderful strike is the fact that the company is a close corporation. It is known, however, that the rich ore contains slips of sylvanite of unheard of richness. A mining expert who examined the property saw slivers of sylvanite eighteen inches long and ninety per cent metallic.
This is the highest record for the Cripple Creek district.
