RICHNESS EQUALS UNITED VERDE
A Strong Company Organized
to Prosecute Development
!
A\ bile .t is generally known that
are large bodies of copper
bearing ore along the, Salmon
river just west of Ibis city, yet
few realize the magnitude of these
bodies of ore and the high values
thc\ carry.
Some four or five years ago Mr.
F. W. Karsten located twel
fifteen claims upon the liegt» out
crop of this copper lead, and since
then there has been at work
quiet but persistent
development of the claims,
era! hundred feel of development
work have been doue upon the
property, and ore bodies, almost
incredible in size, have been
posed, carrying values in copper,
silver and gold
lack of transportation
will prevent the shipment of
great portion of the ore, yet there
have been uncovered hundreds of
tons of high grade ore, carrying
from 28 to CO per cent copper and
from 15 to 40 ounces of silver,
which the owners of the property
expect to begin shipping early in
the new year. The property is
located about sixteen miles almost
directly west from Orangeville,
and being in a climate, always
mild and temperate, where winter's
snow's never fall, its situation is
an ideal one for a great raining
camp.
These properties are in the great
copper belt, which traverses cast
tern Oregon aud western Idaho for
miles, and it has beeu long be
lieved and confidently asserted by
those who have studied the forma
tion of the lead and character of
the ores,in this great mineral zone,
that within its scope there would
lie developed, almost at the

gates of the city of Orangeville,
a property that would rival the
United Verde, seems now indeed
probable, if not apparent.
The outcrop of the vein is dis
cernable for several miles, and in
places on the surface, shows a
width of over a hundred feet*
Repeated assaying and testing
of the ores show that the entire
body of this ore carries values and
the development done lias
covered bodies of hundreds of tons
carrying values surprisingly high.
The Idaho Consolidated Copper
Mining Company, bunted, with of
fice in Graugeville, has taken hold
of the property, and will begin at
once the shipment of the high
grade ore, and push development
work on an extensive scale. Local
men who have been watching the
development of the property for
past years with much interest,
iiave put up considerable money to
test the merits of these claims,
aud have become much interested
in the "Idaho Consolidated," that
they may aid in the further de
velopment of the property, aud
share in its future.
The company will begin the
work on a two-hundred foot tunnel
to tap the lead at the three
hundred and seventy-five foot level
immediately under the old work
ings, and when this has been com
pleted a six-hundred foot tunnel
will be run to tap the ledge at the
seven-bundred foot level.
The mining public may well af

TO WORK THE DEWEY.
A Large Cyanide Plant Will Be
Installed.
Otto Aheling, who has charge of
the Dewey mines on the Clear
water near here, returned Satur
day from Spokane where he has
been for some time investigating
the Hendry x electric cyanide
process. Mr. Abeliug left immed
iately for the mines and while he
did not care to talk for publication,
said that he was perfectly satisfied
with the Hendryx process and
work would be commenced on the
property. However, it is stated
upon good authority that the
pany represented by Mr. Abeliug
has fully decided to install a 100
ton cyanide plant at once and al
ready have plans and specifications
drawn, roads, building,
plant and eyerything necessary to
operate the property on a large
scale. A large amount of develop
ment work has been done on this
property and considerable good
ore shipped but for sometime past
work has been shut down until the
management could decide

upon
the beat method for working the
ore on the ground.
