RAY CONSOLIDATED TO
HAVE A CHEAP COST

A leading authority on the porphyry
coppers. who has been identified with
both the Utah Copper and Ray Consoli-
dated and whose opinion carries weight
expresses the opinion that the difference
In grade OF ore between the Ray Consoli-
dated and the Utah Copper, III per cent
for the former and 10 per cent for the
latter. Will make up for any difference
in the cost Of mining as between the cav
ing system or shallow shafts at the Ray
Consolidated and the steam shovel opera
tions at Utah Copper. The higher eXtrac-
ton from Ray ores as compared with
Utah Copper Will also be factor. so 1t
is estimated that Ray will be able to pro-
duce its copper at So cents or even lower.
or as cheaply as Utah Copper.
