COPPER GREEK AND
C. & A. CONSOLIDATE
Arizona Mining Companies Close
ly Connected in Past Decide
to Work as One
TUCSON, April The- consolidation
of tho Calumet and Arizona Copper
Mining company and tho Copper Creek
Mining company and a complete reor
ganization and methods Is the report
coming both In the personnel of the
component companies and their plans
from what Is considered a most authen
tic source. One of the most Interest-
Ing detail* of the story Ib that the re
organized company purposes to erect a
smelter on Us properties. The deal Is
regarded locally as one of the most Im
portant ones that has taken place In
mining circles during the present year,
as both properties are noted through
out the country and are strong
financially.
It is reported that the deal is a prac
tical certainty. Rumors of It have
been afloat in local mining circles for
the past three or four weeks.
. The Calumet and Arizona and the
Copper Creek properties are located
nearly adjoining each other at the head
of the Gallura mountains, about twelve
miles east of Mammoth and about
seventy miles northeast of Tucson.
Col. L. W. Powell Is at the head of
the former properties, and Col, Slbley.
well known throughout the southwest,
is the president of the Copper Creek
properties, with headquarters in Los
Angeles. While the companies have
heretofore been In no wise connected In
a financial way, the Copper Creek com
pany has for some time past been fur
nishing power to the Calumet and Ari
zona under a contract.
• According to the report received In
T.(is Angeles the reorganized company
•will take over the stock of present
holders at par, exchanging therefor
stock at par value in the new company.
Copper Creek, It is said, was the first
placed on the market at 10 cents a
■bare, which was eventually Increased
to 25 cents, then 50 cents. Holders of
this stock will bo allowed par for It in
each instance, and will be given, in ex
chjige, stock in the consolidated com
pany at $10 a share, which has been
fixed as the price under the new order
of things. This sUck will be listed on
the market.
It is said that the company purposes
to erect a 200-ton smelter on Its prop
erties on the Copper creek, at some
point most suitable for handling the
ores of the Calumet and Arizona and
the Copper Creek companies. From
what is considered a most authentic
source it Is learned that orders for the
machinery have already been placed,
and the company expects to begin work
on its erection us soon as the machinery
,an be turned out by the manu
facturer*. jwilJiHIM
