1t is also possible that the manage

is every reason to believe that in the

National Mining or Iron Cap Group.
Speaking of the National, he said:
This group comprises about LOG
acres of ground, an ideal location Ia
the heart of the Globe district. They
have about 5000 feet strike on the
fault, and as the apex laws are in
vogue in Arizona can mine for un-
limited depth. 1t is being developed
with single compartment temper.
airy shaft which has attained a depth
OF about 600 feet. Sinking was stop.
of water and, as this shaft was only
to develop location for a permanent
shaft, it was deemed by the manage
ment as a waste OF funds to handle
the water with such a small exploring
shaft. They. have developed ore on
the 460foot level in the Black Hawk
fault and are driving west to cut the
Old Dominion fault that outcrops on
/. fze hot
will cut the Old Dominion fault some
time this month. In drifting on the
Black Hawk fault they have opened
up considerable ore, running five per
cent for a width of about three feet.
Besides owning the Iron Cap claims
outright they have options on three
other groups in outlying districts
which give promise OF proving up ac-
cording to reports. At the present
time $4,000 shares are issued.
Globe Consolidated.
This property has under option
1,075 acres OF mineral land directly
north of Old Dominion Up to the
present time they have but very little
to SHOW in the shape of ore, but no
doubt exists that they will get it.
The property is being develoDed by
the Gem shaft, of three compart-
mnts, 1900 feet deep, and the Nal
lory shaft, 100 feet deep. This latter
is practically equivalent TO the l,zUU
level of the GEN shaft and Il is the
intention OF the management to col
meet both shafts on tais level In
driving the drift north from the Gem
shaft two veins were encountered,
showing good copper values, though
no drifting has been done on them to
date. One was a sulphide, showing a
mineralized width of about three feer.
and averaging IL per cent copper.
The other vein was an oxide about
seven feet wide, running about z per
cent in copper. They have about g.
100 feet of drifting to connect these
shafts. At the Mahory-Boston shaft
vein seven feet wide and carrying
high grade ore is being drifted uiI
and looks very encouraging"
The Gem is driving north and is in
about 700 feet The Mallory is driv-
ing south. At the rate tails property
is drifting it will not take them long
to connect at this level. Mr.. Min.
near says that the week he was at
the mipe made So feet, six inches in
drift. This shows the progressive
manner in which the mining is yaI-
ried on. They will likely cut the Flu
ture copper vein, and il is the inten,
ton at the present time to drive GA
the vein when it is reached. They
have another shaft down about 100
feet, although this is an abandoned
shaft. Some of the ore taken from
this shaft is still on the dump and
shows good values of copper and
very high in iron. They have lot
to expect from this vein, the Verde.
though they have dozen no active
work on it since the present com.
pany secured control of the mines
II is claimed by some active in The
Ola Dominion's management that tie
Globe Consolidated has the Maggie
vein, which has proven a valuable
asset to the Old Dominion company,
Ores have been developed in the Old
Dominion within a few hundred feet
of the Globe Consolidated line, which
show exceptional promise for the flu
ture OF Globe Consolidated.
The Globe camo.
The Globe camp is next to the larg-
est producing camp in Arizona and
from every indication it will not be
many years before it will rank first
In the next FIVE to ten years big
strides will no doubt be made BON II

manner of handling b"tn under

has been done in this district and
