Committees Are Named To Search For Sulphide Ore Cave Junction - Special committees to search for sul phide ore deposits in southern Oregon and northern Cali fornia, which would be suit able for making sulphuric acid, were formed yesterday afternoon at a meeting of the California Oregon Chrome Producers association in Cave Junction. The meeting was at tended by more than 100 of the area's business and min ing interests. Mrs. Lendolyn Davenport and John C. Welden volun teered to lead the committee in Grants Pass area; Collins McClendon will head a com mittee in Crescent City area. Others will be announced for Happy Camp, Yreka, Rose burg and Brookings. Those who wish to assist with this program may do so by getting in touch with any of the above named or other members of the association. That such a plan would be feasible for the area provided suitable deposits, could be found was determined in a study by the Oregon Planning and Development committee. Such a deposit it was brought out at the meeting should con tain about 14 million tons of sulphide ores averaging 40 per cent sulphur. Copper, nickel and other by products would be highly desirable. In discussing the project, Bruce J. Manley, Medford, the association's president, repeat edly emphasized that the pur pose was to aid all mining of the area so far as possible and that if a cheap source of sulphuric acid could be made available it would lay the basis for leaching the copper and nickel ores, for making chromium products, and for the development of consider able industry. A meeting of the commit tees will be held in Cave Junction at 2 p.m. Jan. 20. WEATHER FORECASTS Medford and viciniiy: Cold, dense fog and mokc in lower val ley through Tuesday.
