Weekly Press Letter
 University Of Arizona.

The announcement recently made of the increased demand upon the mineral resy4rce5 oi tlis country by the Euro peaa war has caused flood of inquir- ies at the Bureau of Mines O. tAe Un.- verslty of Arizona. Many of these let ters involved slight misunderstanding of the situation, especially as regards manganese ores.
 There is an abundant supply of man. ganese ores in the United States, al though the domestic production has been comparatively slight. The de- creases in the amount imported has created a strong demand for these ores, but they must conform to the specifications of the present day mar ket.
 Manganese ores must be situated so as to be both easily mined and trans ported. For commercial purposes they are divided into four classes first, man. ganese cores; second, manganiferOus iron ores; third, manganiferous silver ores; fourth, manganiferous zinc resi- dunn. Although it is present in many minerals, the greater part is obtained from pyrolucite. Commercial mangan- ese ores must contain at least 35 per cent or more of manganese. Mangani- ferrous iron ores must contain an ex- cess of per cent of manganese and at least 40 per cent of iron. The value of nc. c,,cc.....::fcroGs silver ores depends, of course, upon the amount of silver present. The manganiferous zinc resi- dunn does not particularly interest us here in Arizona, as it is an artificial product.
 In as much as manganese ores are now selling for 15$ to POS per ton at the iron works, it can be readily opprecat- ed that the question of mining and transportation is an important one, and both must be done cheaply, Hence, it is useless for prospective produceos to even consider the working or sale of their properties unless they are surface mined and comparatively near railroad facilities, and contain the required per cent of manganese.
 The Bureau of Mines is ready and willing to do all that it can to assist the mining industry but many letters have come in which are hopeless in re- gard to the above specifications. Man ganese is an important item, but less so than many other minerals in Arizona owingto lack of transportation facili- ties. Eonazite sands, bismuth ores, strontian ores, and mercury ores are rot so dependent upon these con ditions, and should therefore he re- garded ss more favorable objects of search.
 In as much as inquiries are coming in almost every day for minerals other than those which we can outline in this communication, it would be wise for prospectors and miners to send to Prof. Charles F. Willis, Director of the Bureau of Mines, samples and informa- ton relative to their deposits of any kird, which could be supplied in suf- Gc.ent quantities in demanded. The Bureau wishes to learn of everything that is available within the State, in order to be of the greatest possible as- G:stance.
