Mount Rosa Co. vs. Woods Investment Co. Case
MILLIONS IN MINE SUIT.
——————
Property in Litigation is All in the Cripple Creek District.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Col., April 2. - What is perhaps the biggest mining suit in the history of Colorado has been filed in the District Court, and involves mining property valued at more than $5,000,000.

The property affected is all located in the Cripple Creek district, and includes the famous Gold Coin mine.

The suit is brought by the minority stockholders of the Mount Rosa Company against the Woods Investment Company, and the plaintiffs charge that F.M. Woods, H.E. Woods, and Warren Woods, forming the defendant company, have "cheated and defrauded them of their rights ever since they acquired control of the Mount Rosa Company in 1892."

A receivership is asked for, together with an accounting of the Mount Rosa Company's funds, and a statement showing the disposition made of the company's various properties.

graphic for visual presentation of text This afternoon the miners employed by the Woods Investment Company at the Gold Coin mine were called to assemble at the collar of the shaft, and there General Manager Frank M. Woods addressed them briefly, telling them that his company would no longer put up with the domination of the Western Federation of Miners, and that the company had decided to close its properties.

As a precautionary measure, General Chase to-night has distributed guards at the Gold Coin, the Deadwood, the Wild Horse on Bull hill, the Economic mill, the damsite and as far east as the power house at Skagway.

Gold Coin Mine During 1904
In the Gold Coin on Battle Mountain nothing strictly new has been discovered. The development of the ore shoot in the main vein system on the deep levels has been the chief means of maintaining a good production for the year.

Gold Coing to Work 1000 Feet Again
Now that the workings on the 1000-ft. level of the Gold Coin mine have been drained, the management will commence stoping the high-grade ore that was developed before the workings were drowned out several months ago. Although of small size, the orebody is extremely rich and contains a narrow streak of sylvanite ore that carries 20 to 50 oz. gold per ton.

Info Title:
A History of Tunnel Drainage; Pumping Gold Goin Shaft
After the El Paso tunnel was completed in the early part of the year 1904 very little pumping was done in the district (except by the El Paso Co. from below the tunnel level) until May of 1907. At that time the Granite M. Co. began pumping and bailing from below the 9th level of their Gold Coin shaft at the rate of about 1,200 gals, per min.
graphic for visual presentation of text In about 2 mos. they had beaten the water down to their 12th level, 300 ft. deeper, and were holding it there by pumping 750 gals, per min. Before beginning to pump, the water in the Gold Coin shaft had been standing for some time at an elevation of about 8,873 ft., or 10 ft. above the level of the water at the Elkton shaft.
graphic for visual presentation of text Within a few days after pumping had begun at the Gold Coin shaft a fall in water at the Elkton was perceptible, and by the time the Gold Coin 12th level was recovered it had fallen 4 ft. Prior to that time it had not fallen perceptibly for several months.
graphic for visual presentation of text
graphic for visual presentation of text During this same period of pumping at the Gold Coin shaft the water in the Strong mine subsided 16 ft. and at the Portland 35 ft. There is no connection of the Gold Coin drifts below the water level with the workings of other mines and the shaft is located in the granite several hundred feet from the eruptive contact.
graphic for visual presentation of text I mention this to show that there is certainly a connection of the water courses of Battle mountain with those of the Elkton, even at the great depths now reached.

Gold Coin Mine Stuff in 1908
During the period that the Gold Coin mine, now called the Granite, was owned by the Woods family it produced many million dollars worth of ore. It is, however, practically worked out and, although a few sets of lessees are working, their output is small, and I do not anticipate much from this property, until perhaps such time as the mills can treat the very low-grade ores at a profit.

Deep Mining in Cripple Creek
CRIPPLE CREEK DRAINAGE.

graphic for visual presentation of text Engineer T. R. Countryman reports the flow through the portal of the Roosevelt tunnel at Cripple Creek, Colo., as about 8,000 gallons a minute. The recession in the Battle mountain shafts is 3 in. a day and in other parts of the camp the average fall is about the same.
graphic for visual presentation of text In the main tunnel the heading has passed through the Black Bell water course and is now in hard and closed ground, with little water being opened. Three-fourths of the water coming from the tunnel is from the C. K. & N. vein, which is the chief water course of the district.
graphic for visual presentation of text
graphic for visual presentation of text The tunnel has drained the Portland mine on the 1,500 ft. level and the announcement is made from the company's offices that a force of men will be put to work early in December sinking winzes from that point in the mine. It is expected that within the next few months a new level will be made ready for development.
graphic for visual presentation of text
graphic for visual presentation of text The management of the Portland Co. is of the opinion that the deep drainage tunnel has solved the water problem so far as its own property is concerned, and that the water level will continue to drop at a rate that will keep in advance of development work.
graphic for visual presentation of text
graphic for visual presentation of text The water has receded 3 ft. in the Gold Coin Shaft, which is better than was expected. Some recession has occurred in the Strong shaft just east of the Gold Coin. With the possible exception of the Vindicator and Golden Cycle shafts, all of the deeper mines of the district will be immediately affected.
graphic for visual presentation of text
graphic for visual presentation of text After being filled with water since 1907, the Stratton’s Independence has recovered the 1,050-ft. level of the main shaft and work has been resumed there by Davis and Hyler of Victor, who have begun taking out ore they left when water drove them out.

graphic for visual presentation of text In drifting south on the C. K. & N. vein from the Fuller crosscut in El Paso territory values have been encountered to the great depth 1,350 ft., which is 500 to 700 ft. deeper than it has been possible to open ore in the Cripple Creek district before.

graphic for visual presentation of text The subsidence of the water at the Gold Coin shaft of Granite company during the first half of the month was approximately four feet, or considerably less than the average during August. This shaft appears to be more easily affected by the surface waters and at the present time is not a fair measure of the average drop of the water in other properties. The total subsidence at the Coin shaft has been approximately 178 feet.
