The large body of high grade clipper
ore recently encountered IN the OpbhOn-
go mine, adjoining the Black jack has
been followed forty feet and has OEened
so strong that the management Isl pre-
pairing to get additional depth on thl ore.
About two carloads Of shipping DE a

The ore body was encountered fly a
drift which was run into Op0Iongo

Black Jack mine, attaining a deIth OF

depth is TO be gained by driving 4 tun-

UTAH CON. WILL
MAKE COST LOW
New Contract Should Enable
1t to Produce Copper at
Six Cents.

Utah Consolidated stock should soon
begin to discount the larger production
and earnings which will come after its
new smelling contract goes into ERECT
April l. which is now only five months
distant says the Boston Commercial
According to its annual report issued
some time ago, Utah Consolidated ore
Yielded an average of about 43 pounds
cost of 9.5S cents per pound. by the
terms of it's new smelling contract, and
with its ability to save 40 cents ton
railroad freight on its ore through dl-
rect transportation from the mine to
the new reduction plant over its aerial
tranTWay, it is figured that the COM
pany will save S1-25 a ton OF ore, or
about cents a pound or cOupper, re-
ducing the cost to Sc cents pound.
During the year covered by its last
report the Company did very large
amount of extraordinary underground
development work, the object or which
was to put the mine in shape to in
crease its ore output 80 per cent-thaS
is, from 500 tons to 1,2O0 tons daily.
The expenditure on this extra develop
ment work probably amounted TO l or
IL and possibly to cents a pound or
copper produced. As this will not have
to be duplicated, it may conservat1vely
be figured that when the new smelling
arrangement is in force and the IN
creased production under way, the COM
pany's copper will not cost over 81 to
cents a pound. An output OF l,2OO
production of 100000 pounds of cop
per annually, which should yield a
profit of $1,200,000 on a 13-cent COPPER
market. or "a a share on the company S
capital stock.
As Utah Consolidated already has a
considerable cash surplus, and $780,

ternatfonal Smelling and Refining COM
pany, which now shows it a profit -
approximately $200,0 and on which it

/ that 1t will be able to distribute prac-
| tically all of its earnings in dividends

MAMMOTH MINE MAY

The Mammoth Mining company. en-

about two carloads or ore week
Manager Samuel Mcintyre is attempt
ing, IL is said, to obtain better con-
tract with the smelling company with
the view Of increasing the mines pro-
duction. With the new body of Is<Sh
grade ore recently encountered on the
2,1GO-foot level, enough ore is in sight,
it is said, to permit of shipping sew
erah times the amount that is now being
marketed but under the existing

not care to crowd production.

ROUND MOUNTAIN MAY
USE STEAM SH0VELS

The Round Mountain Mining company,
according to advices from Nevada, is
about to inaugurate steam shovel work
in it's famous property, where is said to
be a body of surface ore hundreds of
feet wide and extending to the depth Of
about forty feet, which shows average
values of s. and 81 ton in gold. Some
OF the material runs much higher than
that, and it is believed that by handling
the mass with shOvels and screening the
coarser portion of II, the result will be
a milling product giving values between
80 and SIS ton. In the cOmpany's own
mill on the ground such product can be
handled at handsome profit Gross re-
turns from the mine and mill during Oc-
tober were better than $4,000.

Utah copper's Great Showing.

Utah Copper, for example which has in
sight a great deal more ore than nave all
the mines Of Butte, and which Is just
striking its gait in the matter OF low
cost production, is showing a larger per
centage of earnings on the market value
of its securities than is Amaigamated
Utah Copper is in position to continue in
creasing it's earnings with the price or
copper at its present level, while the Older
companies can hope to show such increase
only through the price OF the metal ad-
vancing.
Utah Copper for the third quarter of
the present year reduced the cost OF pro-
ducing its metal to very nearly eight
cents a pound flat, as against cost OF
9.192 cents for the preceding quarter, and
it showed net earnings of S721, 6SS, or close
TO 81 a share year. as against SiS3,OOO Tor
the preceding quarter. And this was &C
compished not alone by increasing the
tonnage of ore hauled in its mills, but Dy
increasing the saving as we'll
This remarkable showing, taken in con-
nection with the prospect that the COM
pany's milling capacity is shortly TO be
increased, and with the knowledge that
the low cost producers must as matter
of course gain their full share OF the
benefits to accrue from an advancing cop
per market. IS what has turned the at
tention Of investors more strongly to Utah
Copper and the newer companies which
occupy like position in the copper field.
That the copper situation is much
brighter than It has been at any time De
admitted by all experts. While produc-
ton has increased, consumption has been
increased at greater ratio. 1t has been
discovered that accumulation OF stocks
was due not TO decreased consumption,
but to the action of manufacturers in
permitting their stocks to run low. With
an accumulation of only 100000 pounds
| for October, as shown by the statement
| Of the Producers association, the heaviest
sales for long time have been made in
| November, and 1t is known that the cop
per sold was needed-that it does not go
1 to glut the market.
Then there appears TO be no doubt that
some sort of agreement has been virtually
reached by the large producers-an agree
ment which will make the market more
stable. Consumers, it is pointed out.
| would rather see copper at 10 cents
pound on a stable market than to have II
go lower with the knowledge that violent
4 fluctuations must come. The best au-
thorities confidently predict 15-cent copper
soon after the first of the year. with de-
mand which will readily absorb the pos
sibly increased production.
