west side of the Colorado river, oppos.
ite the Indian reservation, and report
that about seven miles from the river
they located a mammoth ledge Of cop.

them from samples from the vein give
it an average value in copper of fifteen
per cent. Mr.. Tspia says the ledge out
crops on the surface TO a width of 300
feet and can be traced for long dis
tance. 1t has been known for years
that copper existed on the California
