naces. Later he uncovered m~atetas, all made of
a hard flint rock, which must have been brought
into the district from a considerable distance, as
there is no flint of this hardness near the mine.
After pursuing his work for several days, the drift
In the rock led into the ore ledge, but the old
workings were found to be closed up solid with
silt.
Guilfoyle pursued his investigation and found
under the soil on the creek upland the remains
Of an old Stag dump. AS is customary with the
prospectors in Sonora, Guilfoyle at once had this
Stag assayed. On account of the primitive meth
DDS of smelling employed by the ancient work
men the Stag found on these old dumps Is usually
rich enough to be worked over again in the mod.
ern smelters, which leave nothing of value in the
Stag, but, strange to note, in this case the Stag
was found to be absolutely worthless, indicating
that at this mine the pu1verizing of the ore had
assisted in the extraction of the metal values.
The antique smelters also knew a lot about the
use Of certain chemicals In the extraction Of
metal from the ore and at this mine probably one
Of those processes was used In connection with
the furnace, only fragments of the foundation of
which were found by excavation.
The finding of the stone tools has caused con-
siderable interest among those of an archaeolog-
ical turn Of mind. The Spaniards were experts
in the manufacture of steel, SO that the tools were
not used by them. The superstition is that an
Indian tribe worked this mine and that this tribe
probably operated following the invasion and &C.
cupation Of the Spanish adventurers. 1t is well
known that there Is a long gap between the six
teenth and eighteenth centuries where the history

Spain robbed every mine reported, ceased to
make report of them. In 1920 the Indians killed
all the mine workers in Sonora and Arizona and
many mines abandoned at that time have been
lost to the world. Sonora has many mines which,
on opening. are found to be ~antiguas and many of
them are very rich.
