 Algonkian Company's Plans. A camp has been established at Hell Hole, near Crown King, by the Algonkian Mines company. a corpora tion which is backed by Philadelphia capitalists Work is being prosecuted under the supervision of A. J. Hect in, a former Utah mining man. The hold ings were originally developed by the Shurtleffs and resDSted in the open ing of commercial ore in considerable tonnage. The present management will continue work at the point where the former operators ceased opera tions and will continue it to greater depth. The property lies few miles to the east of Crown King station in a section noted for the high precious metal contents of it's ores. The plans of the company include the building of a narrow-gauge railroad to connect with the plant of the Randolph-Gem- mill Reduction company at Crown King.
 The Silver Belt mine, one of the oldest mining properties in Yavapai county. is shipping ore to the plant of the Gray Eagle Reduction company at Mayor. In fact, the Silver Belt mine was the first patron of that recently established reduction works. The ore shipped Is complex and runs about s25 per ton-principal values being lead. silver and zinc. The large ton mage of ore on the old dumps at the Silver Belt is first to be marketed. When it has been disposed of the eX- tensive ore bodies blocked out in the mine will be drawn upon for a further tonnage.
 Lucky Five to Resume.
 Plans are well advanced for the re- sumption of operations at the prop erty of the Lucky Five Mining com pany in Copper Basin. A. NJ. Horton. president of the company. and one of the original locators of the sixteen claims included in the estate, recently returned from California, where he has extensive placer interests, for the purpose of directing development work The property is favorably known for it's mineral showing at nominal depth and is considered one of the most promising in the Copper Basin country. Values-as demonstrat- ed by sample shipment of 1000 pounds nds-approximate S57 per ton in copper, gold and silver. The old workings. from which the sample re ferred to was taken, are to he un- watered, and the shaft connecting herewith sunk to greater depth.
 Sheelite ore having a value of $40 per ton. exclusive of it's silver and gold contents, was recently discovered in the Flora mine in the Hassayampa country. The find was made in the face of a 20O-foot tunnel and is said to present unmistakable indications of permanancy This tunnel is to be extended 200 feet further into the hill. where it will have a depth from surface of 300 feet on the vein. The owners Of the property Valentine Al barrado, John Bernard and Louis Bernard, have been working it for the past two years as a silver proposition with considerable success. The estate is located near the old Mescal mill site, about 10 miles south of Pres cott
 Jerome-Portland Busy.
 Four jack-hammeTs and two shifts of miners are employed in deepening the, shaft on the property of the Jerome-Portland company in the Yer de copper belt. The shaft has at pres ent a depth of no feet and is being sunk at the rate of three feet per shift. Yellow sulphides are frequent ly encountered. The hoist. compres- sor and other mine machinery recent ly installed are working satisfactorily.
 The mill on the Copper Chief com pany's property near Jerome is treat ing 130 tons of gold ore daily and is making an excellent recovery or values by means of the cyanide pro cess. The company will resume ship ments of copper ore to Humboldt as soon as the sampling works at that plant is rebuilt. Tine latter was re gently destroyed by fire.
 A dozen camp buildings are under construction near the site selected for the main-working shaft on the property of the Green Monster Min ing company in the Verde field. The buildings include two bunk houses, with accommodations for forty men.
