ed to be world beater in the pro-
duction of ores of gold, silver, copper
and lead. The veins in that section
are large and well defined aud only
require a small outlay of money to
make them producers.
The Capitol group of mines, below
EldOrado Canyon, al the old Marie
camp, are being equipped with hoist
! ing machinery. The mines have been
under development the past year and
are in fine shape. 1t is probable that
a milling plant will soon be erected on
the property and the production of
bullion will be large.
This week Williams & Musser
brought in a ton of rich concentrates
from the Williams tungsten mines,
in the Aquarius range. This ore will
run about seventy per cent tungstic
acid and is worth about 500S per ton at
Kingman. The Williams ores are
richer than any tungsten ores in the
United States and the buyers are
eager to get these shipments.
James F. Carter, of the Carter Gold
Mines company, was a visitor from
Oatman this week. He reports that
he is getting the milling plant as
sembled at the mine and that it will
be but short time until he is able to
ship golden bars to the mint. The
new work on the mine is showing up
good ore bodies, the values being
high.
Work in and around the Tom Reed
is progressing, all the mines in that
section rushing development work for
the purpose of getting the properties
in shape to begin the installation of
milling plants late in the fall, when
weather conditions are right for out
door work. Many of these properties
are making good showings of ore,
much of the bodies giving average
IL
The wagon road that is being built
into IXL Basin from the main wagon
road, is almost completed. The heav-
lest part of the work is done and at
the present time it is possible for
large team to get close to the mines. |
A wagon road into that section has /
long been a necessity and the company
now doing the work should be REIN
bursed should other companies take up
mining properties in that locality.
DR.. L. D. Godshall, general man.
aver, and A. P. Anderson, field engi-
neer of the United States Refining,
and Mining company, were
in Kingman this week and visited all
The property upon which the Needles
and Smelling company is oper-
ating. 1t is understood that while
here they arranged for the unwater-
ing Of the De La Fountaine mine, at
Stockton Hill. This property is one
Of the big lead zinc mines of the dis
trict and will undoubtedly be one of
the biggest of the company's pro-
iucers.
P. J. Farley, the Prescott Journal
Miners representative, has been visit
ing all the camps in the Wallapai dis
-rict and his letters to his paper are
The best ever written by a correspon-
lent from this county. He is a thor
1ugh newspaper man and also knows a
mine when he sees it. To him the
mines of this country are a revelation.
Everywhere that he has gone he has
seen big and rich bodies of ore and it
IS his belief that with the influx of
capital this county will be the banner
producer of the territory.
Mike Mcbride, of Seligman. has pur- .
chased hosting plant for installation
IN his mining property in the Wright {
Creek section, five miles south of the |
Hruxton Canyon Indian school. This ,
property is known as the Mcbride &
dcAbee mines and report comes that =
hey are showing wonderful bodies of
gold ore. Henry Lovin has secured a
)ond on the interests of McAbee and
t is probable that a deal will soon be
made on the entire property. The
haft has reached a depth that con-
-inces the miner that the vein is per- !
nanent and the values show great reg
llarity.
