At a meeting of the officials of the

taken to properly equip the property
for a deep and extensive campaign OF
development work. This property rs
located in the Crescent district OF Ne
vada. and President and General Man
sper a. r. Davis recently returned from
uu inspection OF the mine with moro
confidence in what the future holds

Last year the management, by con-
tract, sent an incline shaft 10 depth
of loo feet, the shaft being aimed pur-
poscly for the footwall sido of the vein.
At the bottom OF the incline the foot
wall was penetrated and IN the VEN

ounces silver and good lead contents
per ton, Mr., Davis estimates that the
suphide zone viii be encountered at
the 200-foot level, or not much deeper
than that, and it is the intention to
send out a drift on the 200 level as
soon as gained. The vein on the sur
face outcrops for forty feet In width,
and is one of the most promising ave

STILL GOING into
FINE COPPER ORE
Inspiration Shaft on Tuesday
Showed Ore Carrying Usual
Copper Values.
NO END OF DEPOSIT
AT THE PRESENT TIME
This Makes Four Successes in
Three Years Developed by
These interests.

A message from the mine manage
ment 10 the local officials of the In
spication Copper company received
Tuesday stated that the shaft had
reached a depth of l55 feet, and the
average of the entire bottom OF the
shaft is 2.5S per cert copper. AT the
time Of sending this message, the shaft
had been in orc for depth of sixty
feet, the general average of the entire
distance being 81 per cent copper, ana
the values are very conscrvatlvcly ar
rived at by the management.
This shaft is within 500 feet of the
Miami lines, and 1t is penetrating the
same copper deposit in which the MI
ami is working, and in which 1t has de-
yelopcd over 100000 tons of splen-
did copper ore. The ore is such that
one of the most ideal sort of .concen-
trates will be made from 1T, and this
will have an important bearing on the
cost of copper production when these
Arizona companies are in shape for
making the red metal There is nothing
so far found in this shaft which would
indicate that the limit of the ore as
far as depth is concerned has been
found vet.
During the past three years the
strong interests now behind the Inspi-
ration company have been very active
and extremely successful in the copper
mining world. During these three
years these interests. headed by George
L. Gum of Salt Lake City, have Sc.
cured four copper properties and they
have developed each one into n splendid
copper mining propositions. These four
mines arc the Cumberland Ely and the
copper mines propositions OF tie Ely
camp. the Mason Valley property IN the
Mason mining district of Nevada. and
the fourth the Inspiration of Arizona.
This certainly is a record TO be proud
Of, for the ordinary mortal with one
successful mining venture behind him
and the iority of men viii hesitate
Ito risk the glory OF ono success in
hunting after something which may
not add 10 his mental or financial peace.
