PRODUCTION TUNGSTEN
 DURING YEAR 1918

Many people have been inclined to believe, that California, and in fact the whole nation, has produced an i'm mense tonnage of tungsten. From the report of the statistical bureau of the iState Mining Bureau of Cali fornia, we learn that the Golden State produced 2,300 tons of 60 per cent con- centrates during the year 1918, valued at $3,O00,000. This is the largest pro- duction that state has ever made and the largest of any other state produc- ing this rare mineral. Colorado was next with large production of low grade mineral.
 Tungsten is one of the most in- portant metals of the rare minerals division and it will be sought after by prospectors for years to come. It is cratic and hard to mine success fully. Deposits are found in kidneys and punches with few exceptions. One of the most noted of these exceptions is that of Yucca Tungsten property in this county, where the tungsten oc- CUTS in combination with copper and where the veins are we'll mineralized throughout the ore bearing zone.

STRIKE RICH ORE ON
 GOLD TRAILS GROUP

Grant McKesson and Joe Marinez have opened a splendid body of ore on a stringer on the ground of the Gold Trails group of mines, north of Little Meadows. The ore was en- countered in the vein in crosscut, the men driving in 45 feet below the apex, where it showed in a high bluff. The ore streak is about eight inches wide and runs from $500 to $1,000 to the ton. A larger vein of milling ore runs with this streak, but the men are not taking it into ac- count. So far quite a tonnage has been opened up and the ore is to be followed as far as it goes on it's strike. Both men are old time chloriders and know how to handle property of this character. They report having quite a nice stake now in sight and contemplate the installa- tion of an arastra for the handling of the ore. The ore is easily crushed and an arastra will be able to handle it to perfection.
 The Gold Trails Company is also contemplating the operation of the main group of properties and it is probable that it will soon be in the list.

CORPORATION COMMI1fEE
 PLANS TO INVESTIGATE

The State Corporation Committee
 is about to investigate the Arizona Oil and Refining Company, the United
 Chino Oil and Refining Company and the General Securities Corporation. These companies were the most active in the promotion of Chino Valley oil companies and are said to have sold more than $200,000 worth of stock without giving one cent of value to the shareholders. The manner of handling the stock, it is said, was for the companies to organize and turn over it's whole stock issue to the Gen. eral Securities Corporation for say two and one-half cents per share and the corporation places these shares on the market for from five cents to 40 cents per share, the oil company getting only the two and one-half cents no matter to what height the shares may be boosted. In this way the companies were not only mulcted of it's shares for little or nothing but also had to meet the expense of advertising. Some of the companies got nowhere in the proving of their ground, although the General Securi- ties Corporation was able to drag down a big pot of money.
 And now that the Corporation Com mission has begun the investigation of the affairs of these companies, would it not be we'll for the legisla- ture to make an investigation into the connection of state officials in not only these companies, but other com panies. It is the impression of the general public that public officials have been given shares of stocks in corporations for the use of their names, and this condition is sure to bring scandal to the administration of any state and the legislature should thoroughly investigate the matter. State officers should be above su- spicion and an investigation by a committee would either divest the public mind of suspicion or fix culpability on the proper persons.

ARIZONA SUPREME IN
 MINING INDUSTRY

According to preliminary esti- mate of the United States Geological Survey, Arizona produced $205.-
 5OO,0OO worth of copper, gold, sil- yer, lead and zinc in 1918. When the value of her output of man. ganesc, tungsten, molybdenum, van- adium, and other metals and min erals is added to this total the ag- gregate will be increased by a re- spectacle figure, and it is confidently believed that this will surpass the value of the production in 1917. Ari- zona not only stands first among the states of the Union as a copper pro- ducer, but~in 1918 she produced $50,- 100000 worth of this metal in ex- cess of the combined production of Alaska, California, Idaho, Colorado, Oregon, Nevada, New Mexico, South Dakota and Washington and her out-> put was about $13,OOO,OOO in eScess' of that coming from Utah and Mon- tana together.
 While we are apt to regard Ari- zona as distinctly copper produc7 ing state, her gold production ex- ceeded that of Idaho, Oregon, Mons1 tana, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, or Washington, amounting to $5,551,- GOO. The value of the silver mined in the state was $6,813,000, which is greater than that coming from Alas ka, Oregon, South. Dakota or Wash- ington. The figures at hand show that California was the leading gold producing state, Montana mined the largest amount of silver, and Idaho produced the most lead.

WILL FINANCE THE
 MIDDLE COLCONDO

J. B. Speed and John Mulligan visit ed the Middle Golconda mines last Tuesday and brought c. B. Bell, its manager, back with them when they returned. MT. Speed is just now en- gagged in the financing of the prop erty and expects to have things going in a big way soon. MT. Bell has been working on the property the past year or two and has it in fine shape. The rich body of silver ore opened in the tunnel is still in evidence, although considerable ton mage has been shipped to the smelter. The property is one of the big things of the county and ought to be so financed that it will be able to go to depth before milling plant is in stalled.

CHARLES H. BURLOCK
 SUCCEEDS CHARLES W.
 MAYER AT MOSSBACK

At a meeting of the directorsN of the Arizona Mossback Mines Com pany, held on Tuesday evening at the offices of Attorney William H. HOlcomb, in the Citizens Bank Build- ing, Charles w. Maier, the general manager of the company, rendered his resignation, which was accept ed. Charles H. Burlock, a director, and the former owner of the proper ty, was appointed to the position made vacant by the resignation of MT. Maier. jVice-President William H. Holcomb, was made chairman of the mill committee, which will be charged with the expenditure of the $40O,OO0 bond issue, now in process of completion, with which it is ex- pected to install and equip a mill , of 250 tons daily capacity, a new double compartment shaft, a dam and pipe line at Cottonwood Springs to furnish water for the new plant, and to do additional development work upon the property while the mill is being erected. The Arizona Mossback Company sunk its shaft to a depth of 509 feet, and was in ore from top to bottom and of a good commercial grade; the company is now proceeding to cross-cut the ore body at the 400-foot level, where they have already demonstrated the pay shoot to be over sixty feet wide. The report presented at the stockholders meeting held in Janu- ary of this year showed 307,690 tons of ore Gin sight" at that time, of a known average value of $1O per ton; much of the ore will run much higher, with pay streaks of unusual richness.

MAKES EXAMINATION
 FOUR METALS MINES

E. Martin Thorniley, a well-known mining engineer, made an examination of the Four Metals Mines at Chloride, last week and appeared to be well pleased with the outlook of the prop critics. The mines embraced the Tuckahoe mine, in which big strike of silver ore was recently made. Mir. Thorniley is now resident of Glen dale, California, and visited this sec- tion a number of times during the past few years. He is a believer in the Chloride section. and feels that he is in position to assure the manage ment of the Four Metals that the company has splendid possibilities in a number of their properties.

to the Bureau of the Mint, one DOT tion of each to the Bureau of Stand arde, one portion of each of the laboratory of the United States Geological Survey. The nature of the problem was outlined, and the chem ists were requested to take all pos sible precautions to discover any platinum present. None was found.
 As a result of these investigations it may be safely stated that the sup posed platinum deposits in the Grand Canyon do not contain platinum-cer- tainly not enough to be of any value. The claim that the platinum is present in some form that would prevent it's detection by the various methods en- ployed in the three government lab oratories mentioned may be dismissed as an absurdity. Even if the platinum were in a colloidal condition, a most unlikely supposition, it would still be platinum and would give the chemical reactions characteristic of that.metal.
