the Boston Post of Wednesday, May 10,
says:
Mr.. j. S. Wallace, who has been ap-
pointed superintendent of the United Verde
Junior Copper Mining Co., writes from
Jerome, Arz., regarding the United Verde
Junior as follows: The claims are COW
cred with float and lodges. Some of the
lodges crop on the surface. and others are
blind and have only been found by cross
cut tunnels. There are several veins of
gold quartz, from one foot to four feet
wide, which have been opened by small
cuts and tunnels. Some of these are fine
looking veins. aUd are likely to prove valu-
able with development work. The most of
them can be cut by running the lower, or
No. g. tunnel on the reservation claim
This tunnel Is now being run through a
rotten slate. which has punches and
streaks of fine looking copper ore. There
is a good surface showing on two lodges
on this claim, which should be cut at no
great distance. have no doubt but sew
eral of these streaks and veins will come
together with depth. and that there must
be a large body of ore on this ground
No. l tunnel has cut a four-foot vein.
which shows some good looking copper
ore. No. 2 tunnel is full of good streaks
of ore. There is big ledge in this tun-
mel but being so near the surface, il is
badly mixed yet, but with depth il is likely
to be a solid ore body. I think 1t best to
drive Nos. ! and tunnels, as that will be
the most economical way to open up the
ground and prove what is ian it. | believe
this is a very valuable piece of property
and with development will prove divi-
denl payer,"
