Cripple Creek, Colo.-Official re-
turns from mills and smelters show
that the mines of the Cripple Creek
district produced ore during the month
of November the total gross value of
which was s1,132, ,014.22.
Compared with the production for
August, the November totals are be-
low the figures of the former, both in
gross tonnage and value. November
was thirty-day month, but contained
legal holiday.
Two days were lost resulting direct
ly in reduced production. Daily aver
age tonnage in November was greater
than in October. The value of this
years November production is consid-
erably more than the total values pro-
duced during the month of November
in 1913. The difference amounts to
nearly 100000
From all authentic sources where in
quiry has been made reports are to the
effect that the mines of the district are
in good condition, in better shape to
increase production than they were at
this time year ago. This favorable
status applies especially to the bigger
mines, such as the Portland, Vindica-
tor, Golden Cycle, Elkton, Isabella,
Cresson and others.
The new ore bodies developed at
great depths in some of those mines
are very rich, and of actually immense
proportions in a mining sense. The
total production for the last month in
the present year will probably be
larger than for any of the other
months of the year, and it is thought
may prove to be a record-breaker, if
the present favorable weather contin-
ues through December. Following is
the November output in detail:
