While the general direction of the Excelsior ledges, as before stated, is nortli- westerly and southcasterly, and their characteristics are similar, yet for the purpose of classification they may be divided into five series, namely : the California, the Pacffic, the Baltimore, the Old Man Mountain and the Enterprise.

MEADOW LAKE TOWNSHIP DIRECTORY.


The California series consists of a few prominent ledges whose course is more nearly north and south than any others in the district ; among them the Excelsior, California and Empire are very generally and favorably known to the residents of Excelsior. The Pacific series, in which the Knickerbocker, Wisconsin and Pacific are the most prominent ledges, has a course almost due northwest and southeast, and seems, in some instances, to terminate in the California ledge, in other cases to pass on uninterrupted through it and the parallel lodes. The Baltimore series appears to radiate from a point near the canyon in the vicinity of Ossaville, on the Yuba, and is embraced within an angle from the point of radiation of about forty degrees, running from north forty deegrees west to north eighty degrees west. The ledges of the Old Man Mountain division radiate from a point near the western extremity of Phoenix Lake, a beautiful sheet of water whose shores are near the base of the mountain, several hundred feet above the altitude of Meadow Lake1 In this group are the Mohawk and Montreal, U. S. Grant, Montana, Gold Run, Crescent, and other promising claims. The ledges of Old Man Mountain, with a slight deflection to the north and south, are very nearly in a due eastern and west- ern course. To the southward occurs the Enterprise series of ledges, not yet suffi- ciently developed to determine with accuracy its course or mineral character. Ar- senuirets of iron are found in abundance in the lodes of this division-as high in some instances as 40 per cent.


The Excelsior ledges are easily traced by an experienced miner in the district, by the dark, reddish appearance of the outcroppings, caused by the oxidation of the iron pyrites encased in them. In width, they range on the surface from five to nine feet, and have, in almost every instance, been found to enlarge as they descend. It is a remarkable fact that not a ledge which can be traced downward twenty feet has yet pinched out below that depth.


Contrary to the idea generally prevalent, no difficulty is experienced in extract- ing the gold from the sulphurets. The only difficulty ever encountered originated from the inexperience of the men intrusted in the first mills of the district with the amalgamation of the ores. Their entire knowledge was derived from, and confined to, the quartz mills of the State of Nevada. They were novices in the treatment of auriferous rock, and made their first essays in Excelsior. At present the vein stone is treated for free gold by the common mill process in battery, and on copper plates, and the sulphurets, concentrated from the tailings, are subsequently worked by the chlorine process. The metallurgical works of Messrs. Deetkin & Chappellett, in the vicinity of the town, are the pioneer establishment of the district, and have by repeated expertments, made on different ores, demonstrated that by Plattner's chlo- rine process the gold can be extracted from any rock in Excelsior, within five per cent. of its assayed value. The principal and most serious difficulty, so far, consists in the want of proper concentrators, that will perform a close concentration cheaply, and with a minimum loss. Sulphurets abounding in the ores of this district, and averaging by assay from $50 to $60 per ton in gold, yield scarcely a profit on account of the cost of concentration by manual labor, as practised in other quartz mining districts of California, in which sulphurets, better in quality, but less in quantity, are produced. This difficulty, however, as it is only of a mechanical character, will soon be remedied.


Allusion has been made to the proportion of sulphurets in the vein stone of Excelsior, and herein consists one of its most remarkable features. While in the


318


MEADOW LAKE TOWNSHIP DIRECTORY.


mines around Grass Valley and Nevada City ten per cent. is considered a large pro- portion of sulphurets, in this section from 25 to 35 per cent. is the average propor- tion. Their is no doubt but that the reduction of ores can be effected as economi- cally in Meadow Lake as in any other mining district of the county or State. Owing to the abundance of wood and water, the milling process can be carried on at a cost of from two to two and a half dollars per ton. Competent parties who have resided in the district. and are thoroughly conversant with the subject, esti- mate the cost per ton of working concentrated sulphurets, by the chlorine process, at from six to seven dollars.


The Central Pacific Railroad, by its proximity to the mines, will greatly facili- tate all milling and mining operations. What then can prevent the rapid and suc- cessful progress of Excelsior ? Broad ledges of auriferous rock permeate the dis- trict in every direction ; magnificent forests crown its mountains ; spacious lakes nestle in its valleys, and hundreds of streams dash through its canyons. With all these natural advantages, if the residents of Excelsior will continue the good work of development, so auspiciously commenced during the past summer, a golden harvest of prosperity assuredly awaits them.


[The winter of 1866-7 was unusually severe in the mountains, and the depth of snow in Meadow Lake district was about twenty-five feet on the level. But not- withstanding the great depth of snow, work was prosecuted in several of the mines without interruption, and communication was kept open with the railroad at Cisco the most of the time.]

In addition to the above, the district has furnaces for roasting ores at the Winton mill and the Metallurgical Works, established by Mr. Deetkin, in which the chlorine process has been successfully applied to every variety of ore in Excelsior.
