More or less drifting has been done on the 600, 700 and 800 levels, but the develop ment on the. former is that of most import. A drift known as No. ' ex tends from the shaft first in a south westerly direction and then in south easterly direction TOO feet. At a dis tance of about soc feet from the shaTI cToss-cut known as No. s WIS started in an easterly direction and encountered good oxide ore at a dis tanee from the drift of about five feet The ore lasted for forty feet when a mass of lime boulders Was encountered, and beyond the latter the ore again made its appearance. Al this point stoping was begun. The stope Is known as No. 1. One hun dred feet farther along the drift from the first cross-cut another cross-cuI No. s, was cut to the east ward and at distance of ten feet ore again was encountered. At this point in cross cut No. another cross-cut was strted. running parallel with the shalt Ten feet into this portion of the mine revealed ere of oxide character ana carrying a large percentage of cuprite Stoping was begun, the stope being No. 2 The ore assays 15 per cent il places and will probably average close to 10 per cent. Cross-cut No. 3 revealed a full face of oxide ore, ana to date thirty-fiye feet of the orc have been traversed. Its extent can not yet be surmised. A raise Is being cut from the 700 foot level to cut thu ore body on the 500.

Bisbee daily review., 1908-12-20

One of the interesting features CT the great plant of the Copper Queen company is the precipitating plant, near the Car, where the Invitation Of ore is completed by passing through troughs filled with tin cans.
 This process is perhaps the most economical method known for the eX- traction of copper values. It is prac- 1iced extensively in the Rio Tinto mine in Spain, where the vast bodies of sGiphide ores for hundreds of years have been exposed to the oxidizing effect of the air. The ore beds in Butte that have been burning for years have been leached of their values if g similar manner. In the beginning diamond drill holes were driven through the mountain, tapping the Little St. Lawrence shaft, and through it the Greater St. Lawrence and the adjacent burning beds of the Anaconda and Never Sweat mines. Water was conducted into the shafts and after traversing the ash passed through the drill holes and into DIG cipitation troughs containing iron anu tin cans. In Jerome also this metho'i has been used, but not to such gred: extent as in Butte and Bisbee.
 None of the. ores of copper in then natural state are soluble in water, but after they have been opened the sul phide ores take up the oxygen unu they readily dissolve in water:
 As lixiviation is the only profitable method of treating ores below ctn tain grade its importance to copper mining of the future cannot be ovel estimated. This refers to sulphidt ores, as the process is of indifferent success with many of the other ore' of copper. Ores containing consider able quantities of ferrous oxide, man ganese or lime cannot be treated il this manner with profit. Its greates disadvantage is the time required The process, however is the cheapes manner of treatment. The copper impregnated. water of the Holbrool and ezar mines has been treated b! tthe Copper Queen in the thorough going manner that has characterizet all its work.
 H. W. Chittenden, Cananea, Mexico describes the plant of the Coppe l Queen Tt Bisbee as the most success | fpl in the United States. and his as sert'on is no GCubt correct.
 The CZar and Holbrook are tn
 sources Of the copper water used q
 supply the plant. In fact the wate of the company's deeper working
 contains an insufficient amount of COT per to be handled in this mannei The water of the Holbrook is sent b pipe to the Czar, where the water c

GOLD IRE IF
 GREAT VALUE
 E REPORTED
Story Comes From Casa Grande Of Values So Large That Miners Are Searched As They Come Off Shift.

A story of an Arizona gold mine v. sensational richness comes from the neighborhood of Casa Grande in a lesr ter to Ed Myers, foreman of tlle Gardiner property. IL relates to the Turning Point mine, which is abuus twenty-two miles southward from tho railroad, and is in a district that 10 certain to attract mucG notice in the future. Mrs. Myers father was inter- ested in the property years ago anu neighbors writing of the neighbor hoods interesting occurrences natulaI ly told of the mine in which the lady would be interested. Coming in such an unassuming way the news natural ly will be accepted as truthful The ledge is twenty feet wide and carries average values of twenty dollars pen ton, but in places contains pockets of such richness, so the letter relates, that the company has resorted to the practice in vogue in very rich mines of searching the miners as they come off shift The property is near tIft. Jack Rabbit and Dessert Queen mines. the latter well known to Bisbeeites because of its exploitation some years ago by Wren and Hewitt of this city. Hoyland and Smith of this region afsU have operated in that section.
 The Turning Point mine is a prop erty with an interesting history. In | the early sos TuttFe of the Silver King mine operated tn the prope.,S and later Doran moved the min of the abandoned Silver King mine to the Turning Point and gutted the prop, 1 erty of its rich surface ores. In fact the miners of those days were for the most part content with the ores near the surface and left for the present generation the deeper and more ex tensiye values that will make that dis
 trict a mineral producer in the n~d, future. ...
 That whole region is well mineral ized, the Quijotoas to the south having
 been the scene of a notable mining ex citement in the eighties. The Big Four" of mining fame, Fair, Flood
 Mackey, and 0'Brien, operated in tha
 country and extracted some rich oIt
 but abandoned that isolated distr1c for some more alluring excitement II the days when vivid and exaggerated
 tales of golden fortune were borne or -l every breeze. Mrs. Myers has a col lection of gold nuggets as large a
 beans placered in the neighborhoo'
 of the Turning Point mine.
