;ONTACT MINE SOUTH OF LOS

SHOWS GOOD.
William Hunter, R. B. Bowman, O.
-Mayes and H. J. Martin, all of

ay on business. These gentlemen
e interested in. the Contact mine,
lust over into the range from Enter
rise, and from Interviews held with
Ir. Hunter who has the development
ork In charge the mine presents
n excellent showing. According to
hat gentleman the mine is a low
;rade primary proposition running
ronr 7 to 15 per cent copper in
ose quarts. This is all the more
ralseworthy In. that the copper pro
ducers, of the country from Mexico
o Canada, are lo grade primary
eposes rather htan high grade sec-
indary precipitations. It is perhaps
vKbtn the whole truth to state that
be copper producers- wkh but rare
exceptions will run from 7 to 15 per
cent. t
There is oa the surface of the
Contact" prope.ty mentioned, ac-
:ording to a conservative estimate b;
Ir. Hunter, at teust 100,000 tons of
0 per cent copper ore. But the
nine management does not contem-
la'.e spending the proceeds of the
nine before it Is an established pro-
mcer, and thus development work
j being prosecuted steadily with no
it tempt at shipments. This work, has
een progressing since hist fall and
j to be continue!. Thus far the
ulne re have reached a verticla depth
f over 300 feet and have driven one
unnel 300 feet, along the Hue of con
tact.
Development work, such as this
oinpany is doing, is the only thing
