misunderstands totally an artists

when The Angelus' was on ex-

Cinnaminson woman dropped in to
see it. She gazed with lively inter-

reverently in the sunset glow in the
quiet meadow. Then she said:

The main advantages under this sys2

furnaces are new and consist Of eight
blast furnaces and one leo foot rever-
beratory using oil for fuel. There are
also five new stands Of convertors. At
these works advantage is taken of the
waste heat of the furnaces, so that
low cost of operation is possible Nc
Dougal1 roasters have been installed.

The most important feature in the

Chino Copper, Great Lowgrade Mine
At Old Santa Rita, Mining By
Steam Shovel Process on Big Scale

= COMING UP in the mining firma-
ment is a constellation of the first
- magnitude soon to rival those
other stellar wonders, the great ''por-
phyry-coppers' of Bingham Canyon,
Utah, Ely, Nevada, and Globe and Ray
Arizona, and this new constellation is
the group of mines belonging to the
Chino Copper company in the hills Of
Santa Rita, Grant county. New Mexico,
100 miles northwest by railroad from
FL Paso. In gigantic scale and cost
Of operations by private corporate en-
terprise it has no rival in New Mexico.
and in Importance to the future well
fare of Ell Paso and southern New
Mexico it is second only to the Ele-
plant Butte dam.
Much Work Done.
The Chino Copper company. present
owners, took charge of these proper
ties in March. 1909. but during those,
two years they have accomplished IN
exploration, development and improve
ments what would have been incon-
eeivable to the old time mining men
In preparing for future profitable pro-
duction they have expended several
millions of dollars. They are changing
the famous Santa Ritas from the age
of high grade to the age of ''porphyry-
coppers'' and "steam-shove1 mining"
For the old camp Of Santa Rita was
probably the most famous and earliest
high grade copper camp In the United
States being, discovered by the Span
iards; and 100 years ago the native
metaEc copper from these mines was

motors in hauling Elisa ores, the other,

Sierra de Cobre. The underground
length of the tunnel completed is to
be $500 feet and total length of the

means five mile cutoff for the Con-

Concentrating MIL
At the new town of Hurley, nine
miles down the valley by the Santa
Fe railroad branch, is the site where
the big concentrating plant of 5000
tons daily capacity is being construct
ed. 1t will be of three units of 1000
tons daily capacity each. and on the
pfan of the great mill of the Utah Cop
per company. Grading for the mill
was begun in July, 1910 The main
building is complete, and the ore bins
and coarse-crushing plant nearly so.
1t is expected that one mill section
will be in commission by the middle
Of July, and the remaining sections
will be put in operation every 45 days
thereafter. Tests on the 100-ton expe-
rimental mill for the past year resulted
in a concentration of 16 tons into one.
Ore bodies stripped and prepared for
steam shovel mining viii supply the
tonnage for the mill for about three
years. and consequently there will be
no difficulty in keeping the stripping
operations we'll ahead OF ore extrac-

In Hurley and Santa Rita and the
vicinity there are about 5000 prosper
Que people. constantly increasing in
numbers The water problem for the
new mill was solved by the purchase
of numerous water rights as well as
the development of water supply from
Whisky creek, Cameron creek, White
Water arroyo and Apache Tejo springs
The water from these several sources
will require about 20 miles OF pipe
line.

A contract has been made to have
the concentrates shipped and smelted
by the American Smelling company at
the new plant now being constructed
at FL Paso. When the first unit is
completed about So tons of concen-
trates will be shipped daily to Ell
Paso. and when the three sections Of
the mill are completed about 1S7 tons
will be shipped each day. Plans are
making to double the capacity of the
mill as soon as the present three units
are completed. so that 5000 tons OF
rock will be milled and 375 tons or
concentrates shipped to FL Paso each
day

The sPorphyry Coppers.,

J. Park Claiming, one of the fathers Of
the new system, is a popular one
which is today applied to that type
of copper deposit in which the ore oc-

phyry." There is, however, no partie-
ular virtue in eruptive rock, as at
least in two great properties the rock
is schist, viz: the Miami and Ray Con-
solidated of Arizona. Roughly speak
ing, the grade of the ore of porphyry
coppers varies from l IL to percent

run into the millions. : 1t will take
years to get them out, and will cost
millions to get them in shape to do
so. The Miami. just now entered the

The ore body of these properties is
reported to be in the shape of 81
gantic horseshoe, covering a distance
Of a mile and a quarter from heel to
heel. The ground of the Santa Rita,
Chino and Whim Hill claims
has been chiefly prospected by
churn drills as well as by underground
workings The drill holes are bored
az each corner of 100 foot blocks. Cy-
clone drills are employed. Sampling
of these drillings are taken every three
feet, frequently the entire three feet
bling taken The average thickness Of
all these deposits is SIS feet, as far as
developed. The depth or thickness in
many cases is over 1000 feet. The
main ore bodies, lying near the surface
in irregular deposits, are composed Of
chalcocite, native, red oxide and car

of this will be mined by steam shoyels
Tracks are laid for these shovels on one
side of the Chino and they are burrow-
ing into this hill and will continue

lies at shallow depths.

The ore developed is now stated at
45,23S,312 tons Of an average assay
OF 2.3 percent copper. Up to March /.
15O,645 feet of drilling had been done
in Ala holes of which 31S, having
length of 1899 feet, have been in ore
The average depth of these holes is
3S2 feet, the average ore thickness 107

amounts to 2,OSO.962, ASP pounds of
copper, gross. Assuming the total cost
OF mining milling and smelling
charges aggregate nine cents for each
pound of copper produced, the present
market price being u 1-2 cents per
pound, leaving a net profit of 1-2
cents per pound, the net profit OF the
ore now available amounts to 2,S33,-

Cyclone Drills.
Seven drills are now being used in
development. and the remainder are
being used for drilling in preparation
for blasting in connection with strip
ping operations. But little under
ground development has been done OF
late as it is believed that no ore will
be mined except by steam shovels for
several years The only underground
work was done on the Santa Rita

be considered as part of the operating

No Mining Risks.
Once the extent of porphyry de-
post is proved. say the experts. and
the ore, by careful mill test on COM
mercial scale, is shown to be of profit

this kind more nearly resembles man
ufacturing than a mining proposition,
as there are none of the risks at

comparatively narrow veins where
large reserves of ore cannot be con-
sistently maintained; and the profits of
such an undertaking are limited by the
capacity of the plant and the price Of

science of mining and milling which
has rendered commercial these large
deposits of low grade ores has reyo-
lutionized the entire copper produc-
ing industry.
