radans, people who haye been used to
dealing in immense bonanzas at start
lingly large figures. The Colorado
Springs Mining Record says that the
Gold Road sale will be the largest in
the history OF the Pacific coast. That
the Blue Ridge mountains are the
richest in gold OF any in the whole in
termountain region the report on the |
Gold Road and Tom Reed group of
mines will fully bear out. Besides |
these groups there are fully twenty |
more groups of the same character |

The Coconino Mining company, hav-
ing property in the Buckskin noun
tains, in the northern Arizona strip, |
has installed 4 teaching plant and has
it in successful operation. The success ,
of this manner OF handling the ores of /
the lime-sandstone belt of our northern
section is destined to give that country |
an immense boom. Heretofore the |
ores had to be shipped to the smelte:
as 1t came from tho mine, but now at |
small expense product can be made |
that is practically pure copper. The |
Copper Mountain company is soon to
put in plant for the handling of its |
ores and several other small operators |
will follow suit. There is immense |
bodies of. low grade copper ores in the
section north Of the river that can be |
readily handled by this method. Sui
phuric acid can be manufactured from |
the copper product at almost no cost /
to the companies and the cost OF leach
ing the ores will be less than in the |
operation of a cyanide plant.-Kiug- |
