paying quantities has been found in
the Little Big Horn mountains, twenty
miles south of Aguila, according to ad-
vices received from the Reakseeker
claims. Assays of samples taken near

turns of $120 in gold, while at a depth
of As feet it is estimated the returns
will run at least $3.50 per ton. Copper
deposits have also been found in the

BIC DEVELOPMENTS
At JACKSON MINE

GLOBE, Ariz., Jan. 27.-Develop-
ments of the highest Importance are
reported from the Stonewall Jackson
mine, at McMillen. According to Su-
perintendent v. Y. Smith, the ledge
was crosscut from the shaft at a
depth of 470 feet and was found to be
100 feet wide. All this ledge is
mlneralized and the SO feet next tc
the hanging wall carries much high
grade ore. A stratum varying from
SIX inches to three feet in width car
rles black sulphide of silver which
assays several hundred ounces of sill
yer to the ton. Bunches and seams
of brittle sulphide and native silver
are of frequent occurrence. Copper
occurs in the form of native copper.
bornite and scattered particles of
chalcopyrite.
A drift has been run on the ledge
for 100 feet and it shows more or less
ore for the entire distance. This drift
the old mine workings about 300 feet
ahead
The management does not expect to
snip any ore from the 470-foot level.
This is in the zone of secondary en-
richment and engineers think that no
continuous bodies of sulphide or pri-
mary ore are likely to be found above
900 feet.
The shaft is down $40 feet. Sinking
was suspended a month ago, when the
drills broke into large cavity filled
with water. The drill holes have been
plugged and pipe ordered to lengthen
the water column AS soon as this
pipe can be installed, sinking will be
resumed. Prospect crosscuts and drifts
will be run at intervals of 100 feet.
Charles McMillen and Theodore
Harris discovered the Stonewall Jack
son in 1876. After taking 100000
worth of ore from shallow workings
and open cuts, they sold the properly
to Santa Rosa, California parties for
$1bO,OOO. The new owners developed
the mine to greater depth and in three
years extracted $5OO,OOO worth of ore.
Operations were suspended because
OF interference by the federal govrn-
ment the property being within the
boundaries of the San Carlos Indian
reservation at that time. Later leas-
ers took out large amount of silver
and the total production credited to
the Stonewall Jackson is close to
$1,OOO,OOO.
