Tho Woodman Mining companys
S250,000 in gold from the Cane Springs
and Alvcrada groups of claims. There
is an immense amount of ore of good
grade in sight on the property which
will be treated as soon as the new
mill, that Is to be built soon. Is In op-
Grafton. The property Is now under op-
tion, supposedly to the Guggenheims.
for approximately 100000 A large
mill is to be installed at once for work.
ing the gold ores, and the copper and
lead veins on the property are TO be
extensively developed.
The Western Utah Copper company
has three patented groups, the Gold
Hill, CalaVaraS and the Copperpolis all
In the most mineraliZed part of the
Clifton district. f. Augustus Heinze
is one OF the largest stockholders in this
property. Duncan McVichie, w. S.
Mccormick and other prominent Salt
Lakers are also heavily interested. The
property has been developed to sconsid-

| for shipment, or for the smclter, as
| soon as conditions are favorable. This
| company has bought the Redding
| Springs ranch. where there Is plenty OF
water for a smelter site. and it Is safe
to assume that it will not be very long
| until the smelter will be built In the
| Gold Hill group the company has ore
| bodies developed that actually show
| about 100 feet in width. With such i'm
! mense ore bodies exposed, and with
| such an immense amount of ore In
! sight. 1t Is not likely that a man of the
characteristic push and energy of F. A
| Heinze Will allow the property to re-
| main In Its present unproductiye state
| Millions OF dollars are exposed in this
one group, and the other groups will In
| all probability be fully as productive,
| although not yet so fully developed
The ore OF all the groups is copper
| gold, silver and lead.
LUCY L. COMPANY.
The Lucy L Mining and Milling com
pany Is one of the properties which
| the Wilson brothers control. These
men are among the most progressive
and energetic In developing the Deep
| Creek country They are also very
! heavily interested in the different dis
| tricts. probably the largest Individual
property owners in that section. Clyde
| II. Wilson Is in charge of the develop
| ment work at the mines. while Frank
L. Wilson has charge OF the financial
end They have given considerable at
| tention to the rare ores of the district
| and their reward has been tho discov-
| cry OF the largest body of bismuth-
| gold ore in the United States; the dis
coyery of tin, nickel and molyodcnum
and the rare and valuable tungsten ore.
The Lucy l.. Is the best developed
| OF the properties controlled by the Will
son brothers, something over mile
of work having been done upon this
property There arc seven patented
claims and one unpatented, covering an
heart OF the great mineral zone COM
monty called the Copper Belt from the
Characteristic outcropS of copper and
TO distinguish IL from the parallel zone,
lying cast of the Copper Belt and
known as the lead belt
| The greatest ore body on the Lucy L
is In the copper vein. which Is $50 fec
In width. The vein is developed to this
| dcpth OF 600 feet on the incline OF tht
vein and the crosscut at that deptl
shows 1t TO be $50 feet wide as abov,
stated The ore is largely a sulphIde
but portions of the vein shows consid
cradle oxidation. In values 1t vii
average better than per cent cope
and about $3.50 In gold with a littI,
silver
The vein seems to be of IDENTICAL,
the same nature as the Frankly vein
being In the same limo formation ant
evidently deriving its mineral values
from the same source
