FIGHTING FOR WATER
BOUGHT BY MINING MEN

The first step in what promises to be a
bitterly fought battle between the ranch
ers and the mining interests in possess
sion of water rights of the Osceola dis
tTict in White Pine county, has been
taken in the courts at Ely, says the Ely
EXpOsitOr.
The Tanchers maintain that the mining
companies operating in the district have
"hOgged" all of the available water and
are holding it without putting il to any
use. They declare they are in need of it
for irrigation. which would render their
ranches valuable, but without which they
are not productive.
The position of the mining companies
is that they purchased the water rights
now claimed by the ranch interests, pay
ing all that was asked. The ranchers sold
their rights with full understanding that
they would be deprived of use of the
water and that their lands would suffer
accordingly.
The price paid them, however, was con-
sidered sufficient to cover future losses;
in other words, compensation sufficient to
Justify retirement of the lands. The fine
legal point will probably develop through
claims made 10 rights to the water in
question by people who have come in
since the original sale of rights and 10
Gated new lands which might be benefited
by the water. 1t is believed. however.
that demonstration by the mining COM
panies that they have not wilfully ne
elected use of the water since the time
of purchase will enable them to readily
retain that which they bought and paid
for

COLORADO COPPER ORE
UNUSUAL IN CHARACTER

Colorado is not an important copper-pro-
ducing state. The annual production rare
ly reaches 100000 pounds, and in 1906
it was only 7,i27.253 pounds To this out
put eighteen counties contributed, but only
two-Lake 0eadville district and San
Juan-yielded notable amounts. The
Leadville output, somewhat over 1900 900
pounds, was really obtained as a by-pro-
duct; that from San Juan county slightly
exceeded 100000 pounds. The copper ore,
properly so called of Colorado comprised
only 81 49, short tons, of which One-half
came from San Juan county.
In Chaffee, Fremont and jefferson cOun-
ties, however, copper ores are found which
although not of great commercial import
ance, are in some respects unusual, and
these form the subject of a brief paper
by Mr. Waldemar Lindgren OF the United
States geological survey, recently pub
lished by the survey in an advance
chapter from bulletin $40, which
forms part l of Contributions 70
Economic Geology, 1907" Chaffee
county was credited in 1906 with 349, 400
pounds of copper from 6.249 tons of copper
ore; the prod Iction of Fremont and JEFF
fersOn counties was negligible.
Nearly all of the gold and silVer-bearing
deposits of Colorado, and the copper de-
posits as well. occur in close connection
with igneous rocks of tertiary age. They
have clearly been formed during late gen
logical epochs, and their deposition closely
followed the eruption of the igneOus rock
with which they are ASSOCIATED. Some

the values now IN sight, Lincoln county
will have the greatest gold proposition

mineralized territory, and what work has
been done up TO date is uncoYering the

but five or six feet.
Atlanta is the name of the new dis
tFict and every foot of available ground
has been taken up. On the main ledge,
across the length of seven claims. can be
traced the same character of gold-bearing
quartz that returned such favorable gold
values Development work has new start

the Iron Blossom.
When asked upon what date the new

r. +. Bruner, brother OF II. w. Bru-

from a several weeks visit to the Pay
master property, in company with j.
mining man from Kansas City, and two
or three Salt Lake parties. DR.. Moechel
sampled the Paymaster tunnel every five
feet from the mouth to the breast. The
vein was encountered 500 feet from the
mouth of the tunnel. The vein matter
is an altered pOrphyritic quartz. and the
country rock is porphyry rhyolite. pho

There does not seem TO be any mineral
OF commercial value except gold and
silver, and the gold is in a free state.
The entire vein clear across the winze,
which is sunk thirty feet deep averages
$3.50 per ten. In the breast of the tun-
mel, two feet will run 81 20l 80. and three
feet $40 per ton in gold and silver. 1t
is the intention of the company to sink

been shown in South Dakota. Wyoming.
New Mexico and Arizona, and several

Copper deposits of still another class

Arizona and also in western Colorado.
These deposits are generally of low grade.
but the question of their origin has given
rise TO much discussion. An occurrence

SOUTHERN UTAH
ANTHONY MINES
Deposits in Garfield County
Receive Attention at Hands
of Geological Survey.

Deposits of anthony on Coyote creek
in Garfield county, southern Utah, have
been worked spasmOdie4lly since 1870
and it is reported thai more than $780,
600 worth of ore has been shipped from
this region. The rise in tie Price Of anti
mony in lSCJ and 1896 led to renewed &C.
tivity in developing the neglected depos-
its in the United States. and after an I'M
productive period extending over several
years 2S5 tons. part of which came from
Utah, were mined in this country in 1896
In September, 1907. George b. Richard
son, one of the biologists of the United
SatteS geological survey, made a brief
visit TO Coyote creek and examined the
deposits and the preparations that had
been made for active mining. His report
on this investigation has recently been
published by the survey as an advance
chapter from Bulletin $40, which forms
Part L of Contributions TO Economic
Geology, 1907. Copies of this report may
be obtained by addressing the director Of
the survey at Washington, ID. c.
Coyote creek, branch of the east fork
OF Sewer river, occupies a short, narrow
valley in the northwestern part of Car
field county, in the high plateaus of
Utah, whose geology was described TWEEN
ty-eight years ago. The anthony camp
is about forty miles by road southeast
of MarySVale. the terminus of the San

ton of about 1900 feet above sea level
The Awapa plateau to the north and the
Aquarius plateau to the south and east
rise 1000 to 1900 higher.
The ore consists of stibnite and its OK
idatiOn products and occurs irregularly
on both sides of Coyote creek. In the
early days of development attention was
given chiefly to the lenses of ore-the
Kidney depOsits-Which carried between
% and 60 per cent anthony. The known
lenses have now all been worked out, but
it is said that they ranged from few
inches 10 twenty feet in thickness. At
present no large bodies of stibnite are in
sight. but in the dumps of the old pros
poets and in the tunnels there is a great
amount of lOw-grade ore. The problem
is how 10 handle the material ecOnOm-
ically. A large concentrating mill has
recently been erected, and il is proposed
to make star metal on the property.
