turned to a morbid condition. and
until the fall of 1911 no work was
carried on save for a little leasing on
small high grade surface veins.
Nearly an of this early work was
In the lower ground surrounding the
hard silicified outcropS of Copper
mountain. A few shallow holes on
Copper mountain had developed low
grade, very siliceous malachite ore.
and three or four deeper holes had
penetrated below the carbonate zone
to disseminated chalcopyrite and
bornlte ore assaying from to 4
per cent copper. Both the carbo-
nate and the sulphide ores were so
unusual in character that it was
doubtful if they could be treated with
profit by processes in common use
even if large ore bodies existed.
In the fall of 1911 the Calimet &
Arizona Mining company, Col. John
G. Greenway, general manager, took
an option on all the available stock
of the New Cornelia Copper company
and started diamond drilling to prove
more thoroughly what lay beneath
the highly stained outcrops of Cop
per mountain. AS work progressed
favorably, test pitting was started to
increase the speed of development
and to- check the results of drilling.
Later, drifting was done in the sui
phide zone to prove the continuity
of ore between drill holes. This work
has shown that the silicified iron and
copper stained hills are the outcrops
of a great low grade copper ore body,
covering an area of 55 acres and
reaching a maximum depth of over
500 feet below the surface
After this development was begun
options were taken on the property of
the Kendall Ore Reduction company
by James Phillips, Jr., Utley Wedge
and others, under the name of the
Ajo Consolidated Copper company,
and on the Childs group of claims
between the New Cornelia and the
Kendall properties, by representatives
of the United States Smelling, Re-
filming and Mining company. The
latter option was given up after few
churn drill holes had been sunk.
During the years 1913 to 1917 the Ajo
Consolidated Copper company de-
veloped their holdings with drill holes
and underground workings. In 1917
the New Cornelia Copper company
took over the holdings of the Ajo
Consolidated Copper company.
THE New Cornelia Copper COM
pany began the development of the
teaching process for the treatment
of the carbonate ores in 1912 and con-
tinued experimental work until Jan-
uary, 1916 The teaching plant was
completed and production was started
in May. 1917.

SECOND COPPER
DISTRICT WORKED
BY AMERICANS

The Ajo, next to Santa Rita New
Mexico, is claimed to have been the
first copper district in the Southwest
worked by Americans In the SOS or
eve nearlier, high grade native copper
and cuprite ore was mined from shall
low surface workings and hauled by
bull teams 400 miles across the des-
ert to San Diego. From there it was
carried in sailing ships to Swansea,
Wales. Later the ore was hauled to
Yuma, floated down the Colorado
river to the Gulf of California, and
shipped to Swansea. infested old
the bull carts a. Q shown to prove
the truth Of the stories.
From this early period until the
beginning of the present century the
Ajo district was worked in a casual
and intermittent way. With the in
creased interest in copper mining
during the past DECADE, the brilliant
surface showing at Ajo furnished an
ideal basis for stock companies. A
succession of reorganiZations and
new stock issues resulted in little
underground development, and the
greatest depth reached in the two or
three years of activity was hardly
more than 100 feet. Rich bornite and
chalcocite ore was shipped from sew
eral small veins, and stamp mills with
concentrating tables were installed to
treat lower grade ores. But the long
dry haul to the railroad made the
shipment even of rich ore and con-
centrates hardly profitable In an eff
fort to avoid the cost of freighting
ore, one of the companies fell a prey
to the promoters of patent processes.
The McGann vacuum smelter and
complicated hydrofluoric acid leach
ing plant still stand as monuments
to the hopes of disappointed stock
holders. The end of this period in
the life of the district came with the
panic of 1907, when the final products
of the reorganization-the New Cor
nelia Copper company and the Rem
dali Ore Reduction company-were
forced to close down.
The Ajo camp enjoyed a second
short-lived boom in the winter of
1909-1910 The Lewisohn interests
secured an option on the New Corr
nelia Copper company, and Seeley w.
Mudd and associates optioned the
Kendall Ore Reduction company

Pupils were able to prove that they
