ARIZONA THE SUPREME
RED METAL PRODUCER

In 1907 Arizona forged ahead of
Montana as the greatest copper pro-
ducer. Since that time she has been
sending out greater and greater guam
titles of copper until at present she is
producing about 35 per cent of the cop
per mined in the United States.
The metal output from mines in
Arizona in 1916 had a record total
value of nearly $2O3, 100000 compared
with $90,SO6,346 for 1915, according
to the estimate of Victor c. Heikes, of
the United States Geological Survey,
Department of the Interior. The nota-
BILE output of copper and the high
prices of metals both assisted in this
increase of 123 per cent.
The predominant metal in Arizona
is copper, the mine output of which
Inmates, as it increased from 9,972,-
295 pounds in 1915, to approximately
693,000,000 pounds in 1916. The value
of the output, on account of the un-
usual market, increased from $780,
495, 152 to nearly $190,000,000. The
increase of 135 per cent in the value
of copper alone in Arizona was there
fore more than the value of the total
output of the state in the previous
111a I1tc Of 10
state were worked at full capacity and
made much greater shipments of cop
per bullion.
Associated with the red metal as
by-products are gold and silver and as
put the production of gold from cop
per ores in most counties was natur-
ally greater and increased from $4,-
166,025 in 1915 to approximately, $4,-
427,O00 in 1916, an increase of over 4
per cent.
The production of silver from the
mines increased from 5,649,02 ounces
in 1915 to a record output of about
6,823,000 ounces in 1916. AS the mar
ket price was much higher the value
increased from $2,864,053 to nearly
per cent in value. There was no great
change in the production from the
Commonwealth property, which is
principally silver producer, so the in
crease is to be credited largely to the
remarkable output of copper ore.
Arizona's nearest competitor was
Montana with a production of 353, 547,
696 pounds of "copper" while Michigan
is third with 269,S8S, 10 pounds, con-
sequently Arizona produced more cop
per in 1916 than Montana and Michi-
gan combined, which is taking quite a
hike when it is remembered that the
latter states formerly each held the
lead.
The was more new capital invest
ed, more mines developed and greater
general activity in Arizona than in
any other copper producing section of
the world during the year.
