PLACERS IN UTAH.
Southeastern Portion of State Looks
Good to Nevada Operator.

Mark W Musgrove, well, known
Nevada mining operator, passed through
the city Yesterday en- route home after
a visit TO the placer and copper fields
Of Southeastern Utah. The auriferous
deposits extend for distance of moro
than 200 miles along the San Juan
river, commencing near the headwaters
of West Mancos creek, and extending
moro than 100 miles west of Bluff
City. it has been conceded that good
values existed in the sands along this
stream, but il was believed that the
gold was too fine TO be recovered by
the ordinary sluicebox, and hence some
other scheme was necessary IN order
to successfully operate them. More
recent exploration in these fields has
demonstrated the fact that the gold
bearing deposit exists in layers which
is divided By clay seams. and, while
il is fact that at and near the sur
face flour gold is encountered, it is
also shown that in penetrating the sec
ond and third clay-seams, the gold is
found to be very much coarser and
hence more easily recovered.
This section is specially we'll condi-
toned for operations on large scale,
for the San Juan furnishes ample
water for all purposes, and there is no
cement gravel or large bodies with
which to contend. The values secured
run from 81 per cubic yard TO as high
as So or even 81, and, while it is not
claimed that the latter are average
returns, it must be admitted that there
arc spots which carry these values.
While this section is devoid of timber
except limited amount along the
stream, there are n number of strong
coal veins, which have already been
sufficiently opened up to warrant the
assurance Of sufficient fuel for all time
Large dredges appear TO be the methods
used for these fields.
g. 7. Cline, cashier of Bauers' bank
at Mancos, has recently received re-
turns from property in which he is in
terested, that shows general values of
$l.50 to the cubic yard, and while this
may be little high, from the best
evidence attainable, there appears no
doubt but there are miles upon miles
along the San Juan river which will
yield general average value of 81 to
the yard, Harry Ausburn, proprietor
of the Mancos hotel, has lived in that
section a great many years, and has
given these placer fields special attcn-
tion. and his examination of these de-
posits covering more than 100 miles in
length indicates values OF 81 TO the
cubic yard. These bars extend along
the river from half mile to three
miles in width and are from % TO 30
feet high TO as much as lo0 feet in
height, The comparatively recent dis
covery of rich copper deposits IN the
Moonlight district. by Jack Wade and
others has attracted considerable at
tention, and the limited amount of de.
velopmcnt has disclosed strong shoots
of very high grade copper material.

JACKL|HG WILL NOT
LEAVE UTAH At ALL
Manager Utah Copper CorrectS
Report Freely Sent Abroad
by Los Angeles.

Upon the return from Los Angeles
Monday, D. G. Jackling, manager and
vicc-president Of the Utah Copper COM
pany. put at rest all rumors freely sent
broadcast from Los Angeles 10 the Ell
feet that he was TO leave Salt Lake for
the purpose OF giving his entire tune
and attention to r proposition IN
Arizona IN which his associates and HIM
self have Just become interested. MI
Jackling stated TO The Tribune yestcr-
day that he was not going to leave Salt
Lake either temporarily or permanent
", although Los Angeles seemed to infer
that such step was necessary OWING
TO the needs OF the Arizona property.
Mr.. Jackling and associates have
gathered in proposition in Arizona
that resembles Bingham In all its phys
ical characteristics, but hardly in MIN
eralogical or geological way. They
groups Of copper properties, one owned
by the Ray Copper company, the other
owned by the Gila Copper company, Or
the former organization they have Sc
cured the control, while Of the Gila
they have purchased the entire inter
ests of that company They have, there
fore, secured something like $500 acres
of ground, nearly the entire district,
the only patented ground not owned by
owned by the Arizona Hercules com
pany, a Los Angeles organization.
The proposition is very similar to the
Utah Copper property as far as the
problems confronting the company are
concerned. Tho properties contain a
large deposit Of mineralized quartz por-
phyry, and on the two groups are IN
the neighborhood of thirty shafts, all
down from few to several hundred
feet, and nearly all in ore of com
mercial value There is small mill,
200-top capacity. on the group, that was
built for the purpose Of handling the
higher grades of rock. This mill will
be rehabilitated by the new owners TOR
the purpose of securing the best method
Of concentrating the general average
ores, which average around 5 per cent
red metal. There are already 100000
tons of ore in sight that average 2I2
per cent. Mr. Jackling state that there
have been several mills In the camp
for some time. and they all have been
financial successes by handling what
NAV be considered the general average
of the whole section
The Santa Fe railroad runs within
twenty miles of the mines. and within
twenty feet Of the mill, and the plant
is on the Gila river, which affords An
absolute abundance of water for, al!
purposes, The properties themselves
are crossed by the creek known as Min.
eral creek. and this alone is as large n
body of water as the Little Cotton
wood. MI lacking states that the
proposition presents every indication OF
being a great big copper success, and
the new owners are going after 1t With
the intention Of making 1T so.

Salt Lake Company Encounters
Rich Resource in the
New Shaft.

Charles D. Rooklidge on Monday
made public the reason why the stock
of the Yerington Copper company has
been so greatly IN demand for the past
few days, and at elevated prices. Inst
Friday he received a telegram from the
property at Yeriugton that depth of
IS feet in the double compartment shaft
the management had encountered four
feet of ore that runs 90 per cent cop
per. On Monday he received con-
firmation Of the strike, with the addi-
tional information that the new find
was holding out finely. This is a new
and extremely fine development for this
Salt Lake organization, the property be-
ing the scene Of many fine disclosures
in tho past. but on different portions of
the group.
All the new machinery has been
placed in operation at the mine This
equipment consists of a 50.horsepowcr
hoist, and two-drlll compressor, and if
The Tribune is not mistaken, this is the
first power hoist and compressor TO be
placed In operation in Ecringtou. Sew.

not vet heard how extensive the new
body is, but its value is known, ana
he states the orc will run from S4Oo TO
5000 TO the ton.
This find is especially significant TO
the officials. for its trend is farther
towards the East than any working
heretofore has shown such rich pro-
portions. Mr.. Rice states that 1t opens
UP much wider scope Of posslb1ll-
tics for the Nevada Hills TO tho East,
portion Of tho property that has been
somewhat questioned IN the past. Mr.
Rice states that the only question now
confronting the company was that or
transportation All the drifts IN the
nine, and all the dumps are simply
cloggod with loose ore. There are over
5000 sacks now awaiting shipment at
the property. While the company is
able to ship certain number OF cars
a week. ii could increase the present
rate manyfold.
The Nevada Hills is great mlne,
one that was first secured and brought
into its present condition by salt Lake
talent, and local circles are anxious for
the transportation difficulties to be
done away with Just to give the com,
pany an opportunity TO show by ship
mcnts just how great 1T Is.
