WINDSOR MINES
 SECOND MAGMA

ulUUuU WlHUlNln
 One day during the year 1902 Will jam Windsor. an old time prospector or he Pioneer district. located four claims )n the great limestone bed which runs to the north and south in that region 'aulted through with great intrusions If porphyry carrying wonderful values n copper. gold and silver ores. These claims of Windsors were located across the deep canyon on queen creek which cut through the vast heights of Apache Leap at that point md were close to the already proven nine of the Lake Superior and Ari- ;ona Mining company The country .hereabout was in an undeveloped state, the great Magma ore deposits had not been discovered, but the old pioneer had faith in his property and year by year went steadily ahead with lis assessment work and the slow de- yelopment of his claims
 Later in the year 1905, Jim Weary, It that time foreman of the l.. 5. and \. mine also located a number of .laims six and one-half in all. imme- liately along side of the holdings of Windsor Neary. who was also an old inner of the district, and who knows he country thereabout foot by foot, al Q had faith in the future of the dis rict. and secure in his faith held enaciously onto his prospects, also ac- turing by purchase later, two adjacent laims from one Ruben Harkey.
 These twelve and one-half claims ying directly on the great bed of limestone which runs through the dis rict now comprise the holdings of the newly formed Queen Creek Copper company which under the able direc- ion of Jim Neary, original locator. former foreman of the L. $. X A. mine md the man whose faith, as superln- .endent of the Magma mine later. made possible the existence of that great property today. is expected to ank in the near future as one or the ,reat mines of the district.
 Running through these claims at an lngle of forty-five degrees to the pitch If the limestone. quartsite and dlabese lre two of the great Assure veins or he same character on which the Mag ma mine has developed it's present great ore body. These veins, which lie ldjacent to one another at a distance If about sixty feet apart are to be at once developed by the company and by he man who made the Magma mine what it is today.
 James Neary, in the face of obstacles md Encouragement firm in his belief in the country, as superintendent of he Magma continued the task of de- termining a real body of commercial ore along that great Assure vein until, at q depth of $50 feet ore in paying quantities was struck. The results are low history. James Neary says he has every reason to expect the same re- suits from other Assure veins running through the great north and south de- posits as occurred in the Magma. The men behind Weary have the same faith md hope, and in the future the Queen Copper may be as famous by word as the name of Magma is today. spelling success and the tale of a wonderful body of high grade ore
 The Magma has proved that the cop per ores lie at great depth in the Pio- 1eer district. It will be necessary tt sink shafts on the Assure veins in tho district to a depth of over soc feet be fore results may be obtained. Tn, Queen Creek Copper Company witt their two great Assure veins are pre- pairing to do this and Neary. with hi wide experience in the district is tn, man who may be relied upon to carr, he project 10 success. if success ther, will be
