"There Is more activity in the TJrioue
district than in the past 20 years," says
E. E. Stuart, mining1 engineer, former
ly inspector of mines for the state of
Xevada, who is novr a resident of El
Paso. "Some 70 mines nave been mon

"The TJrique mining district is in the
extreme southwestern portion of the
state of Chihuahua, Mexico; and al
though 90 miles beyond the present ter
minus of the Orient railroad, will ulti
mately be only 30 miles southeast of the
graded line. It is in the mineral belt
of the Sierra Sladres. Southeast is the
Batopilas district, and only a few miles
away is the Llmra de Oro gold mine
with millions of ore in sight; and in
the same district Is tihe Rio Plata mine,
which is shipping $j$,000 (U. S. curren

are those of the TJrique Mining and

people, which are among the most
promising in that entire district.

the enviable distinction of being the
greatest lead producing district In the
state of Chihuahua, This district has
been worked over 300 years and during
this period has produced over $30,000,000
In sliver, lead and gold.
"It is known that the Guadalupe minel
in LiiitL uistncL, woruea ior ou years
without the loss of a single day, yield
ed $20,000,000 in net profits, and that
there are several other properties that
have a credited output of several mil
lions of dollars, all within a few miles
of the city of Urique. -None of these
properties have been worked to water
level, and there are bodies of ore still
in place that by modern methods of
smelting will pay handsomely. Within
an area of ten miles square are to be
seen over 100 veins yet ope to de
nouncement. Ancient Methods.
By the old method or reduction em
ployed by the Mexicans for over 300
years, nothing but the richest ores could
be reduced at a profit, and as a con
sequence, immense amounts of ores
were left in the mines and thrown over
the dumps that can, under modern
methods, be treated profitably. The
old smelters were "adobe' The ores
were first crushed fine and washed to
eliminate the silica before smelting. By
this method the chlorides of silver -were
washed out and rich values lost. A ton
of charcoal was used to smelt a ton of
ore. The excessive heat caused loss of
silver in the fumes, aggregating nearly
50 per cent of the values. By the mod
ern methods the loss would not be over
five per cent. At one time there were
over 100 of these adobe smelters operat
ing in the TJrique camp, yielding over
15,000 ounces of silver dally. These
are all abandoned and only high grade
ore is now mined and shipp'ed, being
packed over nearly 100 miles by trail
to railroad and thence to the Chihua
hua smelters. This system costs the
producer $100 per tOD.
3Tcw Sinelter to Be Erected.
The TJrique Mining and Smelting com
pany will Install a smelting plant with
a capacity of -15 tons daily, the cost of
whicn will approximate $15,000. In
addition to the ores produced by its own
mines, it will purchase ores from the
"gambosinos, or "high graders," nu
merous in the district.
"Mr. Monge, a merchant in TJrique,
informed me that within sixty days
after- the erection of the plant the
"gambosinos" would have hundreds of
tons on the dump ready for the plant,
which would be increased greatly at
the end of the year. When develop
ments warrant, another furnace will be
installed, the motive power havln
been provided for in the parent plant.
J.ne company holds properties afford

the silver and gold contents of the ore'd
purcnased will have to be nald for. a-n
the lead will be of sufficient value t
pay ali the transportation as well as
rennins charges at the Monterev smel
ter. The cost of production will no
exceed ? per ton.
The Unoue Mininc and Smeltin
company has several valuable proper
ties. First Is the Lodi, with four per
tenenclas, on which the vein outcrop:
jluuu ieet. with old workinsrs fro
which much rich ore was extracted an
smelted near the mine. The ore now
exposed in the mine shows an 18-incl
pay streak, which sampled 119 ounce
silver and 18 per cent lead. A shaf
100 feet eXDOSes' this Vftin nnhrnVan
from the surface to the bottom, and a
lense cut In the drift from the bottom
of the shaft, averaged 320 ounces sil
ver and 40 per cent lead per ton. Tiie
walls are -well defined, and from he
present developments ten tons a day
can be extracted of this class of ore.
The Oro Grande and Other.
Another mine Is the Oro Grande, four
miles from, the smelter site, with four
pertenencias, undeveloped, but of prom
ise. 4ln it is tho Veta Grande, from
five to eight feet wide. Two samples
from it gave assays (1) of $120 gold and
7S ounces silver; (2) 340 gold and 14
ounces silver. Two other veins gave
average sample values of $26 in gold
and silver, while surface samples gave
from $3 to $10 in gold and eight to
nine ounces silver.
The Mohawk, with 20 pertinencias, is
one of the largest cyanlding proposl-'
tions in Mexico, of which the companj
owns one-half and W. Garner, an en
gineer, owns half. One hundred sam
ple assays from this mine gave an aver
age of $21 In gold and silver. There
are two veins, 15 to 20 feet wide. The
line of the Kansas City, Mexico & Ori
ent railroad runs across Its surface, and
nearby are wood and water for all pur
poses. '
The Galena, having five pertenencias,
has had 500 feet of development work
and the vein on the surface is four to
eight feet wide, average samples assay
ing 63 ounces silver and 12 per cent
lead, and select samples running 300
ounces silver and 16 per cent lead per
ton. This mine has produced $300,000

MUCH WORK AT
THE MIAMI MINE
Concentrator Being Erected
and Many Otlier Im
provements Made.
"The Miami mine 'of Arizona is a
great big low grade copper ore body
In porphyry, running thre and a half
percent," said G. H. Booth, mining en
gineer, of Miami, and representative of
the Miami company, who is .t the St.
Regis, accompanied by his wife.
"V7e expect to do mining m a gi
gantic scale, using the caring system,
the same as is employed in the great
mononite copper mines of Utah and
Nevada.
"The head frame is of steel, 100 feet
high, and Is the largest head frame in
the entire southwest.
"Our concentrator has a capacity of
2000 tons of ore per day of 24 hours.
"The ore is crushed with gyratory
crushers and rolls, being crushed very
fine, say 20 mesh, and it then concen
trated on tables and slimers.
"We are also putting up a large
power house, of 3000 kilowatt capacitj-,
besides the air comppressors.
"The cSppe'r sulphide concentrator
will be sold.
"All the concrete walls and founda
tions are finished, and the steel build
ings are nearing completion.
"About 400 men are to be pmninvort
under ground, and above ground in the
camouse mill and surface, probably
from 200 to 350 men. tl is expected
that the work will be completed about
the first of January, 1911."
Mr. Booth is here engaging mill
wrights and carpenters to help com
plete the bi mill and other work at
the mines.
There are 15,000,000 tons of ore now
blocked out. The Miami company is
controled by tho Lewishons, of 42
