ArIzona's Output OF Precious Metals.
The production OF both gold and
silver In Arizona In 1905 was In ex-
cess OF that in 1905, according 20 the
United States Geological Survey.
The gold production amounted TO
81. .s64. .6SS. an increase OF $685.
469. Something less than one-half
of this production came from Yaya-
PAL county, which includes the Pres
colt mining district.
Mohave, Cochise and Yuma coun.
ties. come next, none OF the remain
ing counties reaching the 100000
mark. In Mohaye and Yuma coun-
ties the larger part OF the gold Is
derived from silioeous ores, while in
Cochise fye-sixths OF the gold is de-
rived from copper and lead ores.
In Yavapai county somewhat more
than one-fonrth is derived from 81
liceous ores, the remainder from
copper ores. For the state as a
whole approximately the same
amounts OF gold are derived from
silieAous ores and from copper ores.
The placer production approximates
sac, 900 derived partly from dry
washings. On the whole the min
ing industry experienced a success
full year. The mining Of silieeons
ores yielded less than in 1905, but
there was an increase from copper
ores and also from lead ores. Unless
the production of silieeous ores
greatly increases there is reason 10
expect a small decline Of the gold
production in 1907.
Silver was produced to the amount
Of 3,O26,43S fine ounces In Arizona
an increase Of 42O.726 ounces. Co

by Yayapai, both approximately
