GLOBE, Oct. 1.-THE development
of high grade sulphides in the Gem
mine on the Globe Consolidated Min
ing company and the sale of two
groups of gold claims situated In Lost
gulch were features of last week $
happenings in the Globe mining nelo'
Improvement was also reported III
nearly all the mines in which actlVe
work was going on. In fact, there mas
never been time in the history OF
Globe district when mine developments
were as favorable as they are now:
Very little has been learned of the
Drogress of work at the Miami ana
keystone properties. 1t is reported
that sulphide is beginning to appear
in the Red springs shaft and 1t is ex-
pected that ore of the same grade as
that developed at the Red Rock shaft
will soon be encountered. These snaLts
are 2150 feet apart and 1t now looks
as though the great sulphide deposit
extends that distance. A station Is TO
be cut at 320 feet in the Red Springs
shaft which will correspond with the
$40 in the Red Rock workings. Great
secrecy is observed regarding the de-
Velopnents on the keystone property
which is being prospected with churh
drills.
Developments in the Montgomery
mine of the Warren Copper company
continues favorable. The west cross
cut ON the 250-foot level has pene-
trated the ore sixty feet and has not
vet reached the footwall. The ore VIII
average 20 per cent copper. A drift
in ore has been started from tne
winze seventy-five feet below the 25O-
foot level. Ore shipments are at the
rate of fifty-five tons per day. ana
will be doubled just as soon as tne
copper market shows signs OF I'M
provement.
September was a fairly satisfactory
month for Old Dominion. A large
amount of development was done. Inc
fourteenth level crosscut IN plock d
is in sulphide ore, 100 feet west or the
orosscut in block 4, which penetrates
the ore sixty feet. Five hundred rect
further east the ore body has peen
opened eighty feet in width and DRIFT
ed on for several hundred feet, much
of the ore assaying 10 per cent copper:
The east drifts on the tenth anu
twelfth levels are in the same rlcn
ore that has been followed several
hundred feet Upraises from those
levels are also in fine ore. Shaft A
is ninety feet below the fourteenth
level and should reach the sixteenth
level by the middle of November. Ine
sinking of D shaft on the west sloe
of the creek continues.
The production of copper in Septernc,,
oil
from the month previous of seVeral
hundred thousand pounds, due to fur-
naces being shut down several times
for repairs Five furnaces are now IN
blast and the output for OCTOBER
should show an increase
That first car of ore from the Gem
mine was shipped to the Old Domin-
ion smelter recently, and Manager
Mccarthy expects to ship two cars
of forty tons each every week for the
present. A tramWay will probably De
constructed from the Gem shaft to the
company's spur on the Arizona Com
mercial railroad, which would facln
tate and greatly reduce the cost oL
handling the ore and permit of larger
shipments.
Sale in Lost Gulch
Announcement has been made of the
sale of fifteen gold claims situated IN
Lost gulch to the Baldwin syndicate
of Chicago. The property comprises
the E. f. Kellner group of eleven
claims, together with f1Ve-stamp
min, two claims that were owned by
Charles McHenry and Charles Wild
and Sultan brothers two claims on
which McHenry and Wild had bond
and lease. The deal was made by
Wild for the owners of the property
and G. T. Harrington, representing the
Baldwin syndicate. The terms of the
sale were not made public.
On the Kellner property are several
strong veins from seven to twelve feet
wide and the ore averaging about $o
or $40 in gold. About 1000 feet of de-
velopment has been done on the prop
erty. The ores are free milling.
The Sultan claims-Cedar Tree and
Badger-are considered very valuable.
Assays as high as $3.50 have been OBJ
tanned from Badger ore and the aver
age gold value is about $50 per ton.
McHenry and Wild short time ago
shipped twenty tons of ore from the
Cedar tree which ran SIS per ton IN
gold and netted over $4OO.
Harrington will leave in few Gays
for Chicago to organize a company
to develop and operate the Lost Gulch
property, Upon his return to GLOBE
a few weeks later work will be begun
An earnest. The mill is to be recon-
structed and approved modern ma
chinery installed.
Harrington speaks encouragingly OF
the Lost Gulch gold belt and expresses
surprise that there has been so little
real mining done there. He said 1t
was an inviting field for men of small
means, as there are numerous goid
bearing veins which could be easily
and cheaply worked, and the ores from
which carry good values. Harrington
was for years in the employ of the
Homestake Mining company of DEAD
wood S. D., and he is confident that
the property acquired for the Baldwin
syndicate in Lost gulch can be protlt-
ably operated.
