Warren nlining District

At the bottom a crosscut of 26 fee
 fails to intercept the walls, and the
 values average per cent copper and
 S4 gold. More or less ore has beer encountered in stringers through the ore body. Of ore taken out and ship ped, ore lot averaged 16 1-2 per cent
 copper. A shipment of 600 tons yield j ed 1-4 per cent copper. In a total of 446 feet of work Paul Crowley, man. | ager and part owner, states that he
 was never out of ore.
 The Standard Copper Co.'S. mines are on the east side of Chase creek. a short distance below Metcalf and have been for several years past steady producers of high grade ore An aerial tramway 5000 feet iong conveys the ore to the Clifton-Met. calf railroad. and it is sent to the shannon smelter. The property con sists of eleven claims and lies in the heart of the Clifton-Morenci district development is being carried on in aeordance with definite plans and the management making the property 9 payer from the stuart. The ship ments per month to the smeltef amount to about 400 tons of higb grade ore.
 Leaving Chase creek and passing eastward two miles over the noun tain to the slopes of the San Francisco river is the New England & Clifton Consolidated Copper Copper Go. prop erty. It has lately become by tthe re cent merger through which it gets it's name one of the important properties of the district. It comprises so claims on which large bodies of ore have been developed. though none of the old New EnglaLd ores have ever been shipped Clifton mined and shipped for several years before merg ing it's interests. In the way of de velopment a main tunnel is being driven through the mountain Tho tunnel is to be built cree ttxxxxxS tunnel is to be a m.le in length about midway of this tunnel an 500 foot shaft has been sunk, and work in the tunnel is being pushed both ways from the bottom of the shaft, and al both ends. Other shafts have been sunk and drifts run all uncoverins EODpt- ore. II IS lLt No build a concentrator and transport the ores to the river by an aerial tram and then to one or the other smelters at Clifton by an electric line, and not ito erect their own reduction works until the ore bodies shall have been sufficiently blocked out to just fy the step.
 Lying east of the New England is the Polaris. about six miles from Cliff ton. It has recently added to it's property the Poland-Nelson group. and now has a total of forty claims. There are several leads on the surface, the most important one being the Black Prince, on which seven of the claims are located This runs northeast and sOuthwes: and is a strongly de fined lead with a maximum width of 70 feet. On it are two shafts, the Nonesuch. 100 feet deep and all in the ore, and the Fraction tunnel, 50 feet in the ore from within two feet of the surface. The Black Prince tunnel is now being driven under these and has a length of 2s4 feet on the vein. With length of 150O feet it will intercept the Nonesuch shaft Above the Black Prince tunnel is the Fraction tunnel. now in 162 feet. one level above the former. In the can yon below a tunnel is being driven al right angles to these wokings, design. ed to intercept them and to cut sev eral leads paralleling the Black Prince and to serve as a main working tun rel to all It is called the Phonolite tunnel and will intercept the Black Prince ledge 400 feet below the tun nel of that name The Phonoliie is in to the Golden Eagle ledge and at 260 feet has a splendid body of ore A winze is being sunk from the Golden Eagle tunnel to connect with the Phonolite. Both tunnels are yielding sulphide copper ores of high grade carrying good gold and silver values. The lead is cut by a canyon. on the other side of which is is a tunnel known as the Grey Eagle, from which good ore is beinb taken. F. l.. Sweet ing is manager.
