Make Some Locations That
Are Surely Very Rich

W. H. Randall returned Saturday
from the Ajo mountains in Sonora
where he has located some very rich
copper and gold claims. The rock he
brought in is just ''louGy" with copper
and runs we'll in gold. Average assays
of eight feet cropping show twenty
two per cent copper and ten dollars
and thirty cents per ton in sold, with
good strong ledge cropping out for
several hundred feet.
VIM G. Miller of Brookline, is in
terested and is now completing the
papers necessary to work the rich find.
Miller has cattle ranch within eight
miles of the find and has before seen
that rich ore existed but not until
lately could he get in there to prospect
on account of Indians. Now that In
dams have disappeared many
miners and prospectors are getting
ready to 60 into that rich mineral
zone to seek the hidden treasures.
The district lays in a sort of triangle
formed by the Bisbee, Nacosari and
Cananea copper mines and is one of
the richest mineral belts in Sonora.
Not only is copper abundant but very
rich gold float has been discovered at
different times on the same ground now
held by Messrs. Randall and Miller.
Not long since one party picked up
chunk of float which assayed $4,000
to the ton in gold. Mr.. Neer of the
Mexicana found a piece of float that
went 81, 900 to the ton. Where such
rich float is found there must exist
somewhere underneath very rich de-
post of gold ore. The finding of just
such rich chunks of float as this lead
up to the discovery of the famous La
Fortuna mine in Yuma county
These claims lay about 120 miles
from No5ales and seventy miles from
Bisbee and twenty five miles east of
the Cananea mines. There is an
abundance of good water and grass.
The scenery Is grand and the noun
tains are full of wild bear, deer, tur-
key, etc. So that not only is prospect
ing good but hunting is good as well.
The formation il which the Randall
property lays is porphyry and lime,
one of the best of formations for the
existence of mineral.
Mr.. Randall will return to the
mountains in about ten days and put
some men to work getting the mine in
shape for development. Later in the
season several of his Nogales friends
will 90 out there with him and try
their hands at prospecting. There is
plenty of vacant ground there On which
to prospect and now that the Indians
have left that portion of the country
great many people will go there to
prospect and some more rich discoveries
may he reported from there in the near
future. That is one of the b st fields
i'll Sonora now for the prospector as it
has never been run over and it is in IL
wonderous rich mineral belt.
