22 PER CENT ORE IS SHIPPED BY
 LITTLE DAISY
COMPARISON WITH ITS NEIGHBOR, UNITED YER DE SHOWS HOW RICH MINE REALLY IS.
(By William P. De Wolf)

Sampler and smelter returns indi- cate the reclamation of 3,500,O00 pounds of copper from United Verde Extension (Littlc DaiSy), ores during the month of August. These figures correspond closely with the copper matte figures for July. There, how ever, the analogy ends; for the orc tonnage shipped during August was considerably less than during July Which means, of course, that the aver age copper content of the ore was higher in August than in July.
 The winzc that is being sunk on the ,400-foot level is down better than 80 feet in orc which carries from 70 to 50 per cent copper to the ton. Ma tive copper is feature in the winze and in the level above.
 With the object of clearly setting forth the remarkably high copper contents carried by United Verde Ex tension ores the following compari- son with the ores of the United Verde is made. And this comparison carries naught for disparagcment; for the United Verde has for years been, and will for many future years be one of the worlds greatest copper mines.

 The general average copper content ot the United Verde ores approxim- ates 6 per cent. The United Verde Extension people label their 10 per cent copper ores, second grade The United Verde management IS mining and smelling thousands of tons of from 4 to s per cent copper ore The United Verde Exten- sion management is not shipping pound of its from to per cent cop per orc although thousands of tons thereof have been opened in the mine The ore sent out from the United

 The figures quoted tell the story of the treasure in copper disclosed in the United Verde Extension mine more than would grouping of Also, they demonstrate the presence of mine of unusual val uc in an area of the Jcromc district where certain geologists have hither- 10 said copper ore would not be found in apprcciablc tonnagc-which tends to the deduction that copper, like gold $ at times disposed to shattcr theories, and is more often than not, where you ind it.

A case in point with the foregoing is the Monte Christo mine at Con stcllation. The Monte Christo, all though located in section recognized mainly for its gold-coppcr deposits, has for number of years been noted for the value and extent of its silver ore bodies. These ore bodies have been opened to a depth of 900 feet, and chiefly through the financial agency of Ezfa Thaycr, of Phoenix. At depth of 900 feet, however, there IS a decided change in the geological conditions, accompanied by a subtcr- ranean water-fow in large volume. A zone of copper was tapped with the water, and the indications now are that the rcd metal will prcdominatc quite as generally below that point in the mine as does the white metal above.
 Barring accident, the unwatcring oi- the Arkansas & Arizona workings will be completed in few days The pumps are working satisfactorily and ;hc end of the tedious job of freeing the l,6C0-foot shaft of water is in sight. New drilling and other mine equipment is on hard and will soon be employed in carrying out the com pany's development plans. So far as ascertained these plans contemplate the exploration of an extensive area recently acquired, and indicate de parturc from the development policy formerly in force.
