very generally supposed that the mine
had been exhausted At a depth Of 1900
feet a big ledge of high grade copper
ore was again ~ncountered This has
continued down to the 1900 level With no
sign of exhaustion.
Mountain Con-Sinking will be con-
tinued on both of the Mountain Con
properties, which nave immense bodies of
copper ore running from Il to 40 per cent,
from which a big tonnage of coneen-
trates is also produced.
Ramsdell-Parrott-This is a low grade
property under lease to Miles Finlen. On
some of the levels, however, much high
grade ore has been ound. 1t is said tina
1T has netted the lessee about $4,000 per
month during the past year, besides pay
ing 80 per cent royalty.
Leonard-This mine has q, large tom
mage of first and second grade ore ana a
considerable amount of third class ore
which is treated at the company's con-
centrators at Great Falls. The ledge
between the surface and 800 foot level
varies from 20 to $50 feet in width and
runs as high as 20 per cent. The ore
consists principally of copper s%ulphides,
cope glance and peacock copper, and
contains some gold and silver values. 1t
increases in copper values with depth.
Mountain View-This is the highest
mine in the copper belt. 1t has a very
rich ledge of high grade ore from 10 to
30 feet in width. But the orc body
increases in width with depth. The ore
runs from Z to 40 per cent in copper. al
though the high grade will approach
nearer to 60 per cent The ore is all
sorted at the mine.
Pennsylvania-This is probably the
richest of the Boston & Montana mines.
but the ore body is only from 10 to %
feet wide. Ore of the first grade will ay-
erage 60 per cent in copper.
Colusa-'Roth the East and West
iColusa have been opened up to a great
extent during the past year. The ledge
at the West Colusa has increased from
10 feet at the 700 to about 100 feet at

other city in the world can show as great
an addition to the wealth of the world, in

The commercial activity created by
such an industry is necessarily enormous,

remotest section of the state. Butte is
indeed the magic city of the new north
west. Her growth has been natural and
not the result of booming, and she has
not yet reached her zenith. Her copper
mines, in operation now about IS years,
are more productive than ever. At a
depth of 1920 feet the copper veins are
richer and larger than at the suEface.
Scientists may speculate until doonfsday
on the problem of how long the mines
of Butte will continue to yield, but the
men of Butte are satisfied that the treas
ure house of the great camp is practically
i~nexhaustible, n will continue to yield
until the shafts reach a depth where the
heat will become unbearable.
The value of the output of the Butte
mines will be greatly enhanced this year
by the high price of copper. The great
est metal men of the world agree in say
ing that the price of the metal will not
fall below Is cents during the next two
years.
