Montezuma District, which adjoins
the Castle Dome region, is again

extremely low, but little work was
done. 1t is very likely that the
camp will be actively worked as soon
as cool weather sets in, as there is
plenty Of ore to be had which can be
:heaply mined and at the present
price Of copper prohtably operated.
