Cherry Creek Activity

Twenty-Five miles east of the Big
Bug section is found the rich Cherry
creek mining district, which is at
tracting considerable attention at pres
ent, owing to the recent rich discov-
cries made by the Pfau company.
While grading for part of the new
mill recently a ledge thirty feet in
width was uncovered which averages
$6 ton free gold. The ore is soft and
easily milled, while the expense of min
ing is small. Ten years ago Sc ore
would not pay to mine, but with mod
ern machines and methods of handling
it is now considered a good proposition.
The Pfau camp is growing steadily.
There are now twelve families at the
camp. besides the working force of
miners and mill men,
The new mill is running steadily, but
not at it's full capacity. owing to some
trouble with the Chilean grinders,
which will not be put in operation
until an expert mlllwright. who has
been sent for, arrives to make thor
ough inspection.
The ore bins are all full and there
are large quantities Of rich ore blocked
out in the mine ready to be taken
down. AS soon as the entire plant is
completed and in operation there will
be $50 tons of ore treated every twenty
four hours. There are several valuable
claims in the vicinity of the Pfau camp,
likely to be bought in the near future,
which are yielding their owners good
returns under the old arastra method.
This goes to prove the ores in that
locality are easily treated and the
values not difficult to save.

Other Yavapai Mines

Near the eastern boundary of the Big
Bug district, in the lower Aqua Fria
valley, Arizona, is located the famous
Iron King property, owned by the
American Copper company. The prop
erty comprises 400 acres of mineral
land lying in what is thought to be a
continuation of the rich Jerome copper
belt. There have been over 5000 feet of
development work done in opening the
group. This development consists of
numerous shafts and tunnels, all show
ing excellent ore. The property is
equipped with complete milling and
cyaniding plant of several hundred
tons capacity daily.
The mill and cyanide plant are run
ming steadily at their full capacity. In
the mine work is being pushed. In
addition to the blocking out of large
quantities of ore, the development of
the property goes steadily on with very
encouraging results. A noticeable
feature about this property, and one
not found in other Arizona camps, is
that all departments are closed every
Saturday night and not started again
until Monday morning.

colt, Ariz. a new five-stamp mill of
modern type has been recently erected
on the property and will be put into op-

A larger hoistng plant will be put
up in a short time for the purpose of
carrying the main shaft to greater
depths. 1t is now 500 feet deep and
will probably be sunk to the 1000-foot
level. Numerous drifts have been run
from different levels and all show a
continuation of the main ore body.
The longest drift is in 300 feet and
shows a solid body of ore the entire
width of the drift. The ore is all free
milling and can be handled with small
expense.

there is a tunnel being run which is

mill is running on high grade ore, of
which there is enough already blocked

of low grade ore on the dumps. There

The improvements will consist of a

together with a large blower Of 400

ago some fabulously rich quartz ore
was discovered which led to active
quartz mining with good results The
Dividend Consolidated Mining COM
pany owns the claim, on which was
originally found the richest free gold
ore ever found in the Big Bug section.
This was on the Ticonderoga claim,
and since the reorganization of the
company it has secured several more
valuable claims numbering in all
twelve. The principal development,
however, has been done on the Ticon-
deroga, Dividend, Galena and Inde-
pendence.
Work is being pushed at present on
the Dividend claim. on which there are
two shafts, one $50 and the other 400
feet deep both connected by cross cuts,
These shafts develop two heavy veins
of ore averaging from $50 to $40 ton
free gold. A great deal of ore has been
taken from these veins that ran as high
as $3.50 a ton.
The property is equipped with ten
stamp mill and concentrator, Whlch is
running steadily. The company has a
large amount of concentrates on hands,
which 1t will ship to some custom plant
for treatment.
In years past the company has been
greatly handicapped owing to the
scarcity of water for milling purposes,
but since the recent heavy rains there
is an abundance of water for all pur-
poses and the mill is kept going day
and night. Other claims of the group
have been developed to considerable
extent and show some good ore bod
