Mines of the County

has given excellent results on Key.
 stone ores. The values have been
 saved to 92 per cent but the separation
 of the zinc from the other values was
 not accomplished.
 Peter Catfery has opened good
 streak of ore in the west extension of
 the A pha mine, at Layne Springs.
 The ore carries values in lead. gold
 and silver. He has been at work on
 the mines the past three months.
 l.. A. Cookery, who is operating the
 Pinkham mine, at Chloride, is a King. man visitor. He reports that the main shaft on that property is now being sunk to the 420 level. The property shows evidence of becoming producer, but the company is to do large amount of work on it before giving it rating.
 The new drill hole On the ground of the Kingman M. X M. company is
 
 rapidly. The old hole was found to be all right and should the other holes prove as good big shaft will be sunk to the level of the deep hole and the work of exploiting the ground on a large scale undertaken. It is quite probable that one of ,he largest bodies of copper in the state will be opened up in this ground
 A large force of men are being put 10 work on the Rainbow mine, at Chloride. The shaft is to be sunk to the 800 and development will be car. ried on into new ground on all the levels. The company has just milled HOO tons of excellent ore at the Nee. dies smelter. This ore carried good values in gold, silver and lead. ILL. McCarn, who has managed the prop erty the past three years, believes he has one of the good things of the Chloride section.
 Thomas Sickles, who has been work. ing on hls mining claims in the Wall. | apai mountains, came to town a few days ago and may not go back to the mines for few months. He reports that he has sunk shaft to some depth | and while the ore values are not as high in the bottom as on the surface they are yet good enough to invite further work The surface ores were exceptionally rich in gold values, no other metal appearing.
 George Hanson. who has been min- ing and prospecting in the Wallapais, brought in from that country, this week, some exceptionally rich silver ore. It is understood that the find was made in the ighborhood of the old Hibernia mine. That country has always been noted for its rich silver ores, although the ore bodies were found to be small. Large veins carry falrly good values in silver, but owing to the inaccessability of the country none but the richest of the ores can be shipped to the smelters at a profit. ;
 w. ID. Grannis came in from Pasa- dena last Wednesday evening and departed Thursday night to the mines of the Arizona Venture corporation in Deluge Wash. It is understood that the company is to at once begin the equipment of the property, hoistiny plant and compressor to be put in. The shaft is to be carried to depth of several hundred feet and the adit drift IS to be run under the big Waldron vein, where big body of ore is ex- oected to be opened. All along this drift good ore has been found and the breast is still Tn ore, Farther up the mountain the vein increases greatly in width and it is here that the bio ore body is expected.
 The Copper Giant mine is getting 2 .hings in shape to begin the shipping | 'f ore to the Jerome shelter. Ore , oins are being put in at the main shaft 2 ot the mine and road is being put in q shape to accomodate either trucks or f pig teams. It is expected to make A |, arge daily shipment and everything f Will be put in shape to economize in q he matter of haulage. spur track q s to be put in at point on the Santa r te as close to the mine as possible ,
