C. & A. AND s. &P. MERGER
VIRTUALLY EFFECTtD NOW
q. A. Minnear 6 Coz

The merger OF the Calumet x Ariz-
ona and Superior & Pittsourg Is now
as GOOD as effected. The ease with
which this important consolidation
was accomplished is a matter OF much
Interest The fact that the directors
or each company are the same men
has doubtless made the task easier,
but there were Discriminating stock

there have been no protests II speaks
ucn for the success Of the directors IN
establishing this basis Of merging The
companies.
A few of the stockholders Of :. 4

feeling that their company was not

QUINCY.

For the calendar year recently ended
the Quincy reports a production OF
s2,511Ol4 pounds of refined copper,
new record. for which there has been
realized S2,974.Os6.2S, thus indicating
selling price per pound fractionally
above 1872 cents.
Mining expenditures aggregated So
$24S,215.1e. equal to about 9.9S cents
per pound of copper produced, TO
which must be added the construction
cost, amounting TO Sll1,9lO.27, equal
10 half a cent per pound. thus bringing
the total cost per pound up to 1O.4S
cents. which was exactly the total cost
per pound reported for 1909 for which
period the company produced 22.511,-
9S4 pounds of copper. which was mar
keted at an average price of 1S4S
cents.
Practically all the Quincy rock hoist
ed is sent to the stamp mill, the poor
rock being rejected under ground. The
company hoisted l.373124 tons Of rock.
from which there is an indicated yield
of about 1886 pounds per ton, and a
total mining cost per ton of rock
treated of about S1.65. The latter fig
ures also represent the approximate
yield and cost per ton of the year pre-
vious. In fact. the similarity of results
with the year previous is the striking
feature of what. in every respect is a
most excellent report. The cost per ton
g.f N Of
hauled from an average depth Of fully
a mile speaks volumes for the eff
cheney of the company's working or
ganization. particularly when it is con-
sdered that this cost includes the
item Of expenditures for more than five
miles of new openings.
1t is of interest TO compare Quincy's
results for the year with those Of Os-
ceola.
Quincy's net profit for the year was
$4,000; Osceolas S75S.OOO. Quincy is
selling in the market for s7,5OO.OOO;
Osceola for SIC. 500 900. Quincy earned
over sis per cent on its market valua-
ton: Osceola about per cent.
AS to the other factor governing the
value Of a mine. viz: ore reserves
and probable length of life, both prop
critics have been worked a good many
years and each has extracted its bet
ter grade Of rock If anything. how
ever, the advantage in this respect
would seem TO rest with the Quincy.
This company has recently bought
from the st. Mary's Mineral Land
company 500 acres Of land that will
considerably prolong its life, and the
statement of General Manager Lawton
that there is. within the company's
boundaries more than three times the
copper bearing ground that has been
stopped during the fifty years Of its
active career. must set at rest any
doubts as to the permanency Of the
company.
on the other hand the Osceola Of
flcials state that the South Kearsarge,
the most valuable OF the company's
three mines. and which yielded more
than half the company's net profits
last year, has not over five wears of
life. at the present rate of extraction
