YItF.KA, Cal., July B'-Privnto
ndviccs received in (his city nre' to
tho effect that thn deal for the sale
of the great Jflue Ledgo copper-gold
mines, in the upper part of this coun
ty, near tho Oregon lipe. has been
practically culminated. Thn proper
ty is owned by Itobert 8. Town.e nnd
New York associates ami is consid
ered one of the greatest coppef-g'old
propositions in California. For
over six years developments linvo
been under way and the endits and
drifts have disclosed nn enormous
tonnage ot commercial ore. The do
positis show a good copper content
nnd the gold values promise to defray
a large portion of the 'operating
costs. Michigan people, havo lieen
interested in the group for some time
nnd it is understood that If. C. Rus-
sell and associates ot Marquette arc
the intending purchasers.
The sale of the group would havo
been probably consummated many
months ago, but tho opposition of
government officials delayed grant
ing of pntcntn to the owners. The
clnims carry considerable excellent
timber, nnd it is said that many oC
the government men opposed granting
of patents because of this. Excel
lent water facilities are available ami
the situation of thq great deposit
arc such that mining can' be carried
on nt an exceptionally low cost.
The operation of the Blue Ledgo
properties on a broad scale means
tho erection of a large smelter In tho
immediate vicinity of the mines. Be
sides facilitating operation of the
copper properties, the plant wou'd
also afford an excellent mnrkot for
the gold bearing ores nf numerous
small quartz producers in Siskiyou
