never found in the Carpathian range
such a block system or uplifting as
there Is In the Wasatch range in
Utah. This geological feature makes
the mining in the Wasatch range

oil field and oil derricks are scat

exist. the field Is so extensive that
an industry could be established
that would make our state as noted
and famous for the production OF
this commodity as II now Is In its
yield of gold, silver, lead, copper
coal and other minerals. In de-
scribing this great ozokerite zone,
r. J. Kroupa, one Of the prominent
engineering chemists OF the United
States, says
The Utah ozokerite belt or wax
zone extends from about one mile
west of Media on the Denver and
rio Grande railroad. along the
southern and western slope Of the
Wasatch range to Soldier Summit
and across to about two miles north
easterly from Cotton. extending
through Utah and wasatch counties

THE zone is located in great
fault such as are common In the
Nasutch range, and the fractures
that hold the ozokerite IN this belt
cut transversely or across the great
fault. This great fault has an Inn
portant bearing on the presence OF
this wax. When you leave this fault
for q certain distance no trace OF
wax Is found. All the development

MUCH INTEREST

QUESTION OF WHETHER MINING
COMPANY CAN HOLD MIN.
ERAL LAND WITHOUT

Judge Flanagan has taken under
advisement a case, the outcome OF
which will have consequences OF far
Preaching effect in Upper Michigan.
a drey Young of Iron River is suing
the Verona Mining company. con-
Itrolled by Pickands, Mather & Co. of
Cleveland 10 compel the company
either to operate or surrender an so
n tract owned by him and held by
the defendant under lease.
The land adjoins the Verona COM
pany's Baltic mine on the north. 1t
was explored by the Verona interests
eight years ago at a cost of $50. goo.
and while little ore was shown up il
was decided to lease the property. for
the reason that the ore in the Baltic
mine apparently extended in that dl-
rection and there was seen 10 be "a
possibility that some day the deposit
would be located i'm the Young acre
age. The lease signed by Mr. Young
provided for royalty of ten cents a
loH LOT all ore lnlneu ana minimum
royalty or ground rental Of $1,000 a
year, the life of the contract to be fifty
years. The company has since been
paying each year the stipulated sum.
In the arguments of counsel for Mr.
Young, it was maintained that the
lease was merely a license, since il cid
not give the Verona company "exclus-
i've" rights and also that the intent
of the respondent and the understand
Ing of the complainant have not been
fulfilled In the seven years that have
elapsed and the lease therefore has
been violated and should be cancelled
The litigation is important i'm that
the outcome will affect many tracts
held by upper Michigan mining COM
panies in similar manner. Should the
case develop the ruling that a mining
company which takes over a property
for the purpose of extracting Iron ore
from it is not fulfilling its contract
by simply paying the minimum royalty,
1t undoubtedly will result in the filing
of numerous other suits TO cancel
leases.
