MARICOPA MINE SOLD
Well Known Cave Creek Property
Changes Hands.

Hi Mcdonald and F. A. Shaw yester-
day sold the Marioopa mine to a COM
pany of local capitalists comprising
Galpin & Son, n. Goff. w X James,
Charles Davies and s. F.. Fitchett. The
consideration was $1,000 Work will
be begun at once in development OF the
property. The Maricopa is well
known property. situated on Cave
Creek, a short distance from the fam
Gus Phoenix mine, and is undoubtedly
on the same ledge from which the ore
of the Phoenix mine came. The word
mine" is considered by biologists as a
misnOmer in describing the Phoenix,
by the way. the theory being that the
ledge at that point was undermined by
wafer and caused to topple over. caus-
ing an immense deposit of ore where
the operations of the Phoenix" COM
oany We're subsequently carried on. All
efforts of the Phoenix" company to
find the ledge proper or their ground
have, however. been unsuccessful. The
ore of the "Maricopa" mine is of a very
high grade and free milling. and al
though but little more than 100 feet
depth has been reached large revenues
have been produced.
