Olympus Gathers Them In.
A year ago reports of the great mineral
ization of the Needle range reached Mr..
Olympus, who subsequently made a per-
sonal examination of the field. A few
men were placed at work prospecting
promising group of claims. and the result
ing ore showings satisfied Mr.. Olympus
that one of the best portions Of Beaver
county had been overlooked by the capt
taiisUc investor. He consequently pro-
Ceeded this spring TO gather in the Monte
earle. the Blue Jay Extension Mining
cempany's ground, the Copper crown and
various adjacent holdings, all Of which
are the basis for the newly organized
AriZaba Copper Mining company.
The company's holdings embrace fifty
enc claims. with a working area of over
seven miles in length and nearly three
miles in width. The original shaft OF the
Blue Jay is being cleaned out and the ore
occurrence being examined.
1t was from this shaft some years ago
that ore was taken running 100 ounces in
silver per ton and from 90 to 20 per cent
in lead.
