NEW ORE RUNS HIGH IN SULPHUR AND IRON, WITH GOOD COP

FIELD WORK DONE AT EUREKA
SHAFT TO BE SUNK ON CLAIMS or LIVE OAK COMPANY
 AT EARLY DATE.

Coincldent with the advance in the price of copper and the rise in import ant stocks, orc strikes in the mines of Globe district have been of almost daily occurrence, and returning confidence e among all classes of people is plainly apparent.
 Globe Consolidated is again to the front with a strike of high class sul- phide. Manager M. E. Mccarthy. who IS noted for his conservative statements, when speaking of developments in the mines under his superintendent in re. ply to query by the Silver Belt re- gardlng the report of strike at the Gem shaft, said: ''We have cut three and half feet of sulphidc in . cross cut sixty feet south of the west drift, on the l200-foot level. Returns just re. celvcd from an average sample of this ore show 1t to contain 6 per cent cop per, 3S.2S per cent iron and 40.1l per cent sulphur. It is as good as any sul- phide we have yet found in the Gem workings"
 It IS, in fact, as good a quality of sulphide as yet produced in the district, because of tho high percentage of sul- phur and iron it contains-althoug there are ores carrying much more cop per. The Gem vein has been opened on the l200-foot level east and west of the main crosscut for long distances, and the drifts almost their entire lengths are in good concentrating sulphide, capable of yielding large tonnage.
 Preparations are being made to re- sume sinking at the Gem. The shaft is to be sunk 400 feet, or to the 1900. foot level, at which the great vein Gone hundred or more feet wde) should show more general naturalization and carry better values. The Globe Cor. sclidatcd is now part of the holdings of the Cordova Copper company, hay ing been merged with the Eureka
 Eureka Property.
 At the Eureka property great deal of work has been done preliminary to sinking a shaft, such as road making and grading, and it will not De long now until development is well under way. The location of the Eureka could scarcely be better, it being almost sur rounded by some of the greatest mines in the Miami section. On the north is the Miami mine, the two properties ad- joining each other for length of 2000 feet. On the west is the Inspiration, which gives promise of equaling the Miami, and adjoining on the south and west is the Keystone on which there is an extensive deposit of sulphidc. Up wards of half million dollars worth of silicate ore was shipped from shallow openings on the Eureka, and strong vein of carbonate has been opened to. a depth of about forty feet on the Osceola claim The development of sul phide ores at moderate depth on the Eureka would seem to be almost as- sured
 At the Live Oak.
 At the Live Oak, operations are con fired to the extension of an old tunnel at shallow depth, in which years ago sulphidc running F to 3 per cent cop per was opened for 500 feet. This tur. nel has been extended over 40 feet and is still in sulphide, which is of better grade than in the old section of the tuHrel. It is the intent'o of the man agemcnt to start sinking shaft on the Live Oak at an early date. The prop crty is regarded as ore of the most in the Miami section.
