DEATH VALLEY SC0TTY AND 'WH|TEY HOGAN NOW IN NOHAVE COUNTY

As the boom spreads every part of Mohave county will be combed for mineral. That this statement is jus tified we refer to the entry of the Yucca country by "Whitey" Hogan, who put the Carbonate mine, over in California, on the map; "Death Val ley" Scotty, and Frank Davis Morris. These men are prospecting that ocun- try and it is probable that within a short time they will be starting some thing important. Hogan is one of the best advance mining men in the bus mess. It was due to his foresight that the big Carbonate property was developed into large producer, and other sections felt his master hand in the development of properties. Mo- have county needs men of his caliber and we hope that he will get into the heart of the mines. Shoestring fel- lows never get far in the development of mines in these days of high prices and intensive mine development.

DIAMOND JOE OPENS
 GOOD ORE IN WINE

E. c Bradshaw and wife drove in from Los Angeles yesterday and are preparing to continue the journey to the Diamond Joe mine. Since leav- ing Kingman MT. Bradshaw has suc- ceeded in financing the company and has made a payment of five thousand dollars, and is now in position to con- tinue development to a greater depth in the winze and operate the mill con- tinuously. From the mine comes the report that the bottom of the winze is all in the black ore that has been found to be the richest ore in the property.
 There is no question as to the out come of a we'll directed development campaign in the Diamond Joe. For years it has been a producer of high grade silver ore and during its life. time large blocks of mill ore have been left in the old stopes. Further de- velopment has indicated that big bod ies of ore lie below the leached zone and we may expect to hear of the min CTS breaking into the second enrich ment any day.

TYLER GROUP OF l2
 CLAIMS SOLD THIS WEEK

The Tyler group of twelve claims, owned by A. Tyler and Henry Lovin, were bonded this week by St. Louis in terests and arrangements are being made for immediate prospecting to determine the location of a working shaft and camp site. This property joins the c. o. D. mine on the north west and has a large body of good grade gold-silver ore exposed. An ex- tensive development campaign will be commenced immediately and the old road to the property put in shape for hauling the machinery and equipment.
 The bonding of the Tyler property marks the fourth or fifth important mining deal in the immediate vicinity of the c. o. D. during the past ten days. The completion of the big C. o. D. mill and the wonderful showing in the lower workings of that prop erty is causing tremendous activity in the entire district. There is nc question but that a number of other properties in the neighborhood will shortly start working now that the problem of treating these ores has been solved by the c. o. D. tests.

month we will defer a more extended description of the plant until that time, as the mill will then have been in operation some days continuously.
 The mining editor accompanied M. B. Dudley and R. s. Billings to the c. o. D. camp last Tuesday, and we must say that we are agreeably sur prised with the wonderful progress made in the camp since our last visit. We found men busily employed in erecting new buildings, excavating for new equipment and getting ready for the care of a larger mining and mill force. There were 75 men em- ployed in the camp and every day brought in more men who were en- ployed in the drifts, raises and stop es of the mine. In passing, we might mention the fact that so far no ore has been taken from the mine stopes, only ore being extracted in the driving of the drifts.
 R. s. Billings, the we'll known min ing engineer, was asked by the edi- tor to state his views and opinion of the property and the new mill. It may be said that MT. Billings was somewhat familiar with the c. O. D. mine, having purchased large part of the production of that property when it was the banner producing mine of the state along in the eighties. He said:
 "The experienced, practical mining man who had many disappointments in visiting and probably making ex- pensive examinations of properties that through different causes have been closed down and unproductive. for term of years, is very apt to be sus- picious of the mithical tales of any such property as to it's production, values. and size of ore bodies. It was somewhat in this frame of mind that I accepted the invitation to go through the c. O. D. mine, that is, l knew it's reputed record and had heard of the way it was showing up. I am, however, pleased to say that was most agreeably disappointed in my examination.
 "The 300 and 400 foot levels make a splendid showing of ore both in val ues and size and the amount of stop ing ground in an ore shoot 600 feet in length, together with the ore faces in virgin ground, both to the east and west, together with the strength ot the vein below the 400 level dissipates any possible suspicion of doubt as to the future of the property. It is go- ing to be one of the very big mines of Arizona, and is now away beyond the prospect stage, as the present ore backs represent a very large tonnage MT. Dudley and associates are to be congratulated on the assured future which they are providing for with standard mining equipment and a modern model uptodate mill, which is now turning out high grade pro- duct"

UNITED EASTERN
 DRILL REPORTED IN
 FL0WOF HOT WATER

Report comes from the United East ern mine, at Oatman, that the diamond drill, driven from the 1340 level, had reached depth of 200 feet below that level and had entered stratum of hot water. The volume was so great that operations were stopped and the drill removed to another part of the mine. This hole had to be plugged to prevent the flooding of the lower level. It is understood that the drill had encountered the big vein at point more than 100 feet below the deepest level, but no statement has been made as to the values found therein.
 The mining editor of this paper has always believed in the development of ore in the basic rocks underlying Oat man and we hope to see the big shafts continued through the andesite and into the granite at the Eastern.

BV=
CRANN|S GROUP DEAL
 CONSUMATED THIS WEEK

Among the most important mining deals to be consumated during the past month was the sale of the Gran his group of claims, east of the c. O.. D. mine, and about three quarters of a mile from the c. o. D. main shaft. These claims have a very promising showing and the main c. O. D. ledge can be traced directly through the ground. At one place it has been opened by shallow shaft to depth of about fifteen feet where the ledge shows nearly nine feet in width, with fair silver values.
 It is understood that the Grannis property changed hands at good sized cash figure and that active de- velopment by the new owners is to take place shortly. The wonderful showing on the c. o. D. property has caused quite furry of excitement in the neighborhood and great activity in that section is manifested.
