 On the continent is there a great property 50 advantageously locat- ed.
 To the northward of the little hamlet of Realito, which is beauti- fully located uponan elevated mesa overlooking a broad sweep of the Yaqui, within league there rise the fiery slopes of San Felipe mountain, a lofty, iron stained eminence of porphyry which rears its double peak at an elevation of more than 5000 feet above sea level, and more than 4,500 feet above tidewater. The San Felipe porphyry belt, brick red in hue, is traced on down to the mesa west ward from the town, and across the stream below. Westward from the porphyry is broad belt of mas sive granite, mile or more in width, thrust up between the San Felipe and another great belt of porphyry, which rises abrubtly to the westward in d great ridge eliminating in a series of rounded peaks whose domelike sulnmits reach elevations varying from 2500 to 3200 feet above sea level.

 Near the center of the ridge, about a league southwest from the town a deep and narrow canon cuts down through the ridge, its bed being but a few hundred feet above the river level, and the lofty sum- mits of the ridge rising abruptly to frowning heights half d mile above

The sili- cious portions consist Of small IT, regular, sharp edged blocks of quartzite, sohdly imbedded in great masses of manganese iron. All the maganese-iron yields small per centages of copper, and traces of gold, with few ounces per ton in silver, the latter being mostly cholrides and bromides. As a com centration proposition the entire deposit would pay to work for copper upon a large scale
 At several points along the great croppings there are old workings from which assays made have yielded twenty to fifty ounces in silver and two to five dollars in gold. 4 we'll known mining man who was prospecting there some years ago reported high grade gold assays.
