The maximum yield of any one of the Fortuna wells as reportedis 75 barrels per day, but it is now generally less than 10 gravity of the oil is about 14° B. Much water is pumped withthe oil, being separated in tanks at the wells. The oil is pumped tostorage tanks on the line of railway about 2 miles distant. The accompanying sketch (fig. 9) illustrates the general distribu-tion of the wells with respect to Hopper Creek and the axis of theanticline. U. S. GEOLOGICAL SURVE1.
