DETROIT DISTRICT.

The Detroit district lies partly in Mil
lard and partly in Juab counties, and
is among the oldest in the state. 1t was
prospected quite extensively in the sew
entities. and considerable good copper
gold ore mined and smelted on the
ground. Expense Of fuel, which was
shipped in by railroad and wagon, and
the impossdbilfty Of securing the proper
fiuxing, nseessitated the abandoning of
the smelters (two having been builD,
since which the mines have been work
ed in a very crude and unsatisfactory
manner by individuals.
The advance in the price OF copper
has thrown some capital into the d.s-
trict, and considerable work is going
on in a quiet way. with very crafty
ing results
The principal mines of the camp are
the Charmed. owned by George Busby
of Salt Lake, now under bond and be-
ing developed by Salt Lake capital; the
Copperhead, owned by Hawkins, I.ud-

British Columbia capitalists, and a

which is to be 100 feet at least.
The Joy property consists of four
claims patented. all of which contrib
uted TO the early time smelters, and
with very little expense could be made
to produce again.
The greatest depth in camp, until
the Charmed captured the record, was
held by ore of these claims (19S feet},
from which $500 tons Of ore was ex-
tracted. which sampled better than Is

MILLING FACILITIES.
Bingham within a few years has
had DESTROYED by fire several large
mills, and at this time is not well
equipped with milling facilities in
actual use. The Dig cyaniding mills of
the Highland Boy and Old Jordan have
been permanently shut down, as the
ores they treated are and will be di-
verted to the private smelters of the
respective companies, for huxing.
Other still plants are the Old Jordan's
20O-ton concentration (only development
work being done), the Last Chance
100-ton mill and the 100-ton mill Of the
Winnamuck- The latter is a misfit,
while the Last Chance will be idle I'M

from a radius not to exceed thirty-five
feet in any direction from the main
shaft. Nothing has been done with the
ground for several years. though many
have tried to bond and lease.
Work can only be prosecuted by claim
owners in the winter, owing to the
scarcity of water. This great drawback
is being overcome by the sinking of
wells. Several have been sunk. and it
is believed that an abundance Of water
can be obtained for milling purposes
A movement is on foot to have a cya-
hiding plant erected here, as a great
deal Of ore can be treated by that pro-
cess. None of the mines are shipping
at present.
The Charmed gold ore goes between
$50 and 500 per ton. The copper vein,-
which underlies the gold, will average
about Is per cent copper and from "a

In the Copperhead there is twenty
