MINING INTELLIGENCE
 Continued From First Page.
 A discovery of molybdenum has been made about two miles north of the Berkley mine, in the Cedar dis trict. The veins are immensely large, one of them being twenty or thirty feet in width and rises above i the canyon to a height of fully two hundred feet. The surface ores carry high values in copper, but at the can yon level the copper cuts out and moly bdenum of an exceedingly high grade comes in. On the walls of the veins are to be found large flakes of pure sulphur, evidently teachings from the molly bdenum. This discovery ! of moly bdenum is the first made in Arizona and is considered of great | importance. .-Mohave Miner. Geo B Upton general manager of 1 the Gro Grande mine and s P Hooker, heavy stockholder in the same com pany, brought in large bar of bullion from the above mine last Saturday, the result of short run of the ten stamp mill. While the value of the bullion was not stated they seemed to be perfectly satisfied with the results of the run. The ore from the mine is perfectly free and the values are all saved on the plates, no concentra- tion being necessary.
 The shaft in the Gold Road mine has reached a depth of 60 feet below the 400. The work of sinking is being pushed as rapidly as possible. Carter & Shaw work about 10 men on their lease. The only drawback is the scarcity of teams to haul the leasers' ore. The Pasadena Mines Go people have arranged with the Gold Road managers to treat 125 tons of ore test but they can find no teams to haul the ore.-Kingman's Mineral Wealth.
 The Bradshaw Mountain Copper Mountain Mining and Smelling com pany is now shipping three car loads of ore per day from it's mines to the ,smelter and two car loads of onyx for Aux from Mayer to the shelter. As soon as some additional improvements are made at the smelter, it will be necessary to have an ore train put on the road between the mine and smelter.
 The gold belt close to Kingman is assuming proportions. The shaft on the Soloman Baumberger property has reached depth of 20 feet and every thing that came out of the shaft will assay S20 in gold. The importance of this near by gold field IS fast be- coming known. .-'Kingman Mineral Wealth.
 Reports from the Minor mine, owned b. Yavapai county's honored citizen and pioneer, Joe Mayer, and Frank Thornton, is said to be showing up better with every foot of work that is done on it. The owners of the mine feel sure that they have one of the coming big copper mines of this county.
 After a close down of some time work was started up again on Saturday in the Monte CIisto mine on Groom creek, two shifts being placed at work. The Monte Cristo has been a wonderful producer of wonderfully rich ore in the years past although it is not opened up to any great extent yet.
 Elmer Wells made a visit to the Lelan mine on Sunday and says that work is progressing there very satis- factorily. Nine men are employed at present and drift is being run on the 800 foot level, with very satisfac- tory results.
 The gold shipments from Dawson this year exceed those of last year by a great deal. A dispatch from there dated June 18th, says 8, 750, 900 had been shipped from there since the opening of navigation.
 There is what seems to be we'll founded report that the Monte Cristo mine, on Groom Creek, is making preparations to start up work within the next thirty days.
