There are q mining properties

To Reopen Durango Mine.
J. G. Cowen, formerly well known

residing in Bisbee, Douglas and Court

the city en- route to the properties OF
the National Mines and Shelters Co, in
Durango, with which he is now en-

of the company to reopen its work
ings as soon as the activity of the
rebels has been shown to have been
permanently abated in that section.
I'VE have never been annoyed to any
great extent by either side" said Mr..
Coweu. Our only trouble has been
in getting in supplies both of food and
powder For this reason practically
every mining company in the state has
been forced to cease any operation
save that of development If things
have settled down to any extent I look
for a great revival in the mining field
throughout central and northern Mex

The smelling plant of the Shattuck-

Frank P. Davis Tells of Min
ing Opportunities Within
Reach of Ell Paso.

There is a free gold belt in the
northern part of the Black range Of
New Mexico. the extent OF which as
known at present is 10 miles long
from the mining camp of FIuorine on
the north. to the camp Of Chloride on
the south a mile and a quarter in
average width" says Frank p. Davis,
a mining engineer and mine operator
just in from that rich country. 1T
offers great inducements for mining
capital, indeed I know of no other
field in the southwest that offers as
inviting opportunities for mining de-
velOpments and operations along le-
gitimate lines, as this.
In area it is the largest gold belt
in length Of any known in the United
States; and 1 say this advisedly, be-
cause have been in most all the prom
inent gold camps in the entire west
including Cripple Creek, TonOpah,
Goldfield, Manhattan and the Califor-
MIA camps.
Not only are the mineral resources
abundant, but the surrounding cOndi-
'tions are ideal. such as vast areas Of
finest pine Of different varieties and
other timber, abundance of water, east
ness of access, and a climate well nigh
UnriValed in winter and summer, and
game and wild fowl, deer, bear and
wild turkeys abundant. Indeed, out
side Of the national parks it is pro-
nounced the finest and greatest game
section in the United States. These
conditions extend for an area close to
100 miles in length by so miles in
width.

Work on Calumet & Arizona
Smelter at Douglas Is Be
ing Rushed.

Douglas, Ariz., July 27.-Another
gold strike has been made in the Altar
country according TO a letter received
in this city from that district. James
Anderson, of this city, has left to make
report on the new discovery, which
is declared to equal that of the Boludo
lease. The placer was encountered at
a depth OF 12S feet, showing seven feet
of high grade pay dirt.
The Aaltar district first came into
prominence shortly before the begin
ming Of the Madero revolution, a very
small amount of work having been
done in the district considering its
dit and rebel activities in that sec
ton.
Structural steel workers in the en-
ploy of the Calumet & Arizona com
pany have commenced work upon the
main smoke stack of the new smelt-
weeks to get in place. 1t will be 3O5
feet in height. 1t is supported by a
base of concrete and Stag. The bot

Steel Work Finished.
Structural steel work upon the
sampling mill of the new plant, which
is five stories in height, has been COM

CHINO is SHIPPING
EIGHTY CARS DAILY

Silver City, n. N. Juy 27.-The Chino
Copper company at Santa Rita, is TAX
ing out large quantities of ore and
about so carloads daily is sent to the
cOmpany's big concentration at Hurley,
from which place ABOUT eight carloads
of 16 percent concentrates are shipped
daily to the Ell Paso smeIter. each car
load, it is said, at the present price of
copper. being worth over $1,000 a car.
Four units Of the concentration are
now operated and it is reported the
fifth one will soon be in operation, as
ii is needed to handle the Increased
output of ore at the mines. Indeed, it
is rumored that the concentration is to
be enlarged by the addition Of at least
two more units.
Recent floods at Hurley carried away
two small dams and did other damage.
Lightning struck the wires leading
from the pump station on the Rio
Arenas and put the pump out of COM
mission for two or three days, but all
damage has been repaired and the
pump is again in operation.

OUTPUT EXCEEDS
100000 POUNDS
Three Units Of ConcentratOr
Are Now in Com
mission
MISSION.

Silver City, y. NJ, July 27.-During
the month of June, Chino's production
amounted to approximately $4,000
pounds of copper. This compares with
that of Nay, /, 4S1, 600 pounds. and with
April. Of 1,415,O 600 pounds. Based on
the June output, Chino is turning out
approximately 1S,5OO.OOO pounds per
annum.
Good progress is being made at the
ChinO's concentration. Three units are
now in commission, the third having
been working for some time, though
Internationally. One unit of the mill,
however, has been shut down. while
certain adjustments were made, TWO
units being always in commission
These adjustments should be completed
by this time, and it is expected that
the three units are now operating con-
tinuOusly on ore.
Certain of the steam shovels, name
", those in the first section, are now
in clean sulphide ore. and the tend
ency in the operation is towards the
treatment of more and more OF this
material, which is making for higher
extraction. The average saving in the
concentration has been steadily improv-
ing since operations were begun, and
is now averaging between 90 percent
and 2 percent. Considering the grade
OF ore treated, these results are very
satisfactory.
Despite the fact that only portion
of the concentration has been working,
and that the ore is below average
grade with large proportion Of more
or less Oxidized material, the costs so
far obtained have been very much be-
low the estimates of the company's
engineer Even with the heavy strip
ping expense, which the company is
charging of 80 cents per ton, the in
dications are that the Chino's cost
will not exceed 81. which on the aver
age extraction of the ore expected
would indicate a cost of not more than
cents per pound.
