MINES OF MICHIGAN
HAVE RECORD MONTH
Production of Copper in May Sur
passed That of Any Pre-
vious Month.
Special to The Journal.

Calumet, Mich, June ,16.-Michigan
mines produced. 100000 pounds of
refined copper in May, which sold for
approximately $3,760,00O. This is the
largest output secured in any month
since the red metal was first mined in
the Lake Superior region. 1t indicates
an annual production Of 100000, 900
pounds. In view of present plans. how
ever, it is likely that the district will
be making even more copper than that
in short time.
Operations at the Victoria stamp
mill were begun a few days ago and
it is now treating rock during the day
shift. The plant is running satisfac-
torily. Compressed, air is the motive
power.
Keiliro Nakamura, chief metallurgist
for the Besshi Mining company Of
Japan, was visitor in the lake cop
of the world, studying mining and con-
centrating methods in various cvun-
tries. and came to the copper district
from Duluth, where he had examined
the mines on the nearby iron ranges.
Sinking in the Tecumseh s No. shaft
has reached depth of CTS fet. Excel
lent rock is coming to the surface. The
lode is well mineralized and shows
graLlfy1ng amount of copper.
The lda-Montana Development COM
pany, capital stock 100000, in $4,000
shares of $40 each, has been organized
IN Calumet, with main offices here a
lease and bond on the Ida and t'A' and

taken and the properties will be devel-
| oped.
| Mohawk broke it's record bv turning
out ,2O2,5O pounds of mineral last
month: The mine is now producing at
| the rate of 100000 pounds of fine
copper year.
A crew of ten men is employed clean.
ing out and unwatering some of the old
openings on the Carp lake property, in
the Porcuplne Mountain district of On
tonagon county. It is planned to con-
duct some exploratory work. A mass
OF native copper weighing three tons
was uncovered few days ago.
| Allouez made more copper last month
than In any previous month since it be-
came producer. The present yield is
at the rate of 100000 pounds of refined
copper annually. Centennial is produc-
| ing at the rate of slightly more than
/ 100000 pounds Of refined copper year
iy and is gaining steadily.
| 1t is interesting to note that the pro-
| ductlon of the Wolverine mine in May
was even larger than for the same
month the year before, nothwithstand-
ing that only one-half of its mine was
available for rock Shipments Since
| the shaft and rock house at No. 8 were
| burned. operations in No. have been
crowded to the limit, and by working
three shifts of men, eight hours each,
the output has not suffered.
