copper week ago Saturday. The mine is at 40, IN
the southwestern part of Pima county, Arizona. From
the day the New Cornea began putting out copper pro-
duction the rate of 100000 pounds month

is being exported from the United States at the rate OF

ton copper begun month ahead of schedule Not
only that but the Inauguration of methods of treat
ent allows the New Conea beat any other producer Of
