 The gold produced in Arizona il
 1914 amounted to POP 2,166.62 ounces
 valued at $4,179,155, an increase of
 $155,244. Of this output, $30, LAO came
 from placers, $3,OO2, TOP from dry oi
 siliceous ore, and $1 ,O5l ,0l4 from cop
 per ore. The largest production of
 gold was from Mohave county $1 ,S91, ,
 PA in 1914, against $1,S74,547 in
 1918. Gold production from ores aamalgamated amounted to $259,063 and from ores cyanided $2,l57 ,0S0. Concentrates contained $3lS,l ,l66 and ores shipped to smelters $1,41O,6O6.
 Silver production from Arizona ores and placers increased from 3,94S,O91 ounces, valued at $2,3S4 ,647, in 1913 to 4,377 ,994 ounces, valued at $2,421 : O31, in 1914. Of this output, 2,6O4,371 ounces came from copper ore, 1,l33,- 976 ounces from dry or siliceous ore, and 3,226 ounces from lead ore. Bullion recovered from gold and silver ores, principally by cyanidation, yield ed 7,649 ounces of silver in 1914; concentrates produced 423,9S2 ounces; and crude ore shipped to smelters con tained 3,2S0,667 ounces. Cochise coun- ty mines produced 2,753,953 ounces of silver in 1914, against 2,l27,l9l ounces in 1913, and Yavapai county 786,9l7 ounces n 1914, against O54 ,O49 ounces in 1913.
 The copper output from Arizona ores, principally from crude ores and concentrates, decreased from 4O7,- 923 ,4O2 pounds, valued at $63,22S,127, in 1913, to 393,O17,4OO pounds, valued at $52,271 ,314, in 1914, but Arizona continues at the head of the list of copper-producing states. The concen- trates produced contained 15S,985, 1906 pounds of the output in 1914, and the crude ore shipped to smelters amount ed to 233,O47,9 pounds. Cochise county, Warren or Bisbee district, be- ing credited with the principal part, produced 155,420,8S7 pounds of cop per, against l65, 5,1O3,S54 pounds in 1913. Greenlee county, with Copper Mountain and Greenlee districts of the Clifton Morenci region the prin- cipal producers, yielded 65,55S,5Ol pounds of copper, against 69,466,56O pounds in 1913. Yavapai county, in cluding the Verde district, produced 34 ,O57 ,952 pounds of copper, against 38,719,973 pounds in 1913 and 34 4,O43,- 0O5 pounds in 1912. Gila county, in cluding Globe and Miami districts, produced 73,48S,162 pounds of copper in 1914, against n ,6O9,S47 pounds in 1913 and 63,969,423 pounds in 1912. The so-called low-grade schist and porphyry ores found in Pinal and Gila counties yielded 95,4S5,293 pounds of copper, against 87,O73, ,4O6 pounds of copper in 1913 and 6S,753,553 pounds in 1912. The copper output of Green lee county came largely from the same class of deposits.
 The lead in Arizona ores in 1914, which were shipped to smelters out side the State, amounted to 15,OO3,- O68 pounds, valued at $505, ,l20,against | 16,144,772 pounds in 1913, valued at $710,370, and 6,S06,443 pounds in 1912. Most of the lead ore is pro duced from the vicinity of the copper mines in the Warren or Bisbee district in Cochise county, which yielded ores 9,3S1 ,116 pounds. Mohave county followed with 3,71S,O57 pounds and Santa Cruz county with 403,272 pounds Concentrates yielded 4,306,- 977 pounds of lead and l0,G9G,O9l pounds of lead were contained in crude ore shipped to smelters.
 The spelter recovered from Arizona zinc ores in 1914 amounted to 9,792,- Do [ pOunuS, Ndlueu dt pfoo,fVv,dBaihot an output of 9,428,O67 pounds, valued at $527 7,972, in 1913. Mines producing most of the zinc ore are situated at Union Pass and Chloride in Mohave and the ores produced are estimated to have contained 9,553 ,050 pounds of spelter in 1914, against r. D31 400 pounds in 1913 and 8,304 ,462 pounds in 1912. Production of zinc was also recorded in Cochise and San ta Cruz counties.
 There were 395 producers reporting production of gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc in Arizona in 1914, against 43S in 1913, and the total quantity of ore sold and treated was 8,009,927 short. tons, an increase of 7S,065 tons.
