60 Saturday, January 3, 1914' Arizona Mines Make Record In 1913 Leads All Copper States In Production For Year Gold, Silver, Lead and Zinc All Show Substantial Increase. tASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. S. W In 1913 there was a recora mine production of gold, silver, .pi or. lead and sine in Ariaona, ac , .rdip to preliminary figure of V. . Ifei'c.s, of the United States Oeolog iral survey. The total value of the mi ne output was about $71,000,000, an ir.r-iea&e of nearly 6 percent over the ,ue of 1912, which was 567.050.VS4. The copper output was valued at near I $64,000,000: the gold at about $3, MS.iiOO: the silver at more than $, 263,000; the lead at $612,000, and the zinc at $510,000. The mine yield of gold in Arizona in 1913 was more than 191,000 ounces, an increase of 5 percent over the out put of 1912, which was 181.996.91 fine ounces. Of this total, over 42 percent was taken from siliceous ores and most of the remainder came from cop per ores, which are undoubtedly the source of the increased gold output In 1913. The three largest producing! gold mines were the Tom Reed, Gold TCn&ds and Vulture. The Tom Reed output was about the same as In 191.4, the Gold Roads had a slight increase, and the Vulture a substantial increase. In Yuma county operations were re sumed at the La Fortuna mine. Silver Shown Increase. The mine production of silver In creased about elight percent, amount ing to more than 3.773,000 ounces, against 3,490.387 ounces In 1912. "Most of the silver was derived from copper ore, but in 1918 the increase is due largely to shipments of lead ore and concentrates from Cochise and Mo have counties. Much silver also comes from siliceous ore. About 500 tons ot ore per month was shipped from the Tombstone property and a large ton nage of old tailing was taken from the Commonwealth dump. A 350 ton cyanide mill at this property was com pleted during the year. Leadn All In Copper. With a mine production ol about 414,593.000 pounds of copper in lSlo, Arizona led all other copper producing states. The output in 1913 stows an increase of more than 49.000.000 pounds, or about 12 percent over that of 1912, which was 365,038,649 pounds. As the price of copper was sltghtiy lower in 1913, the value of the metal increased only about $3,600,000. There were 11 active copper-smelting plants in the state, and ore and concentrate were also sent to six cop per and lead plants in other states. Of the former, the greatest increases in output were made at the Harden. Calumet & Arizona, Copper Queen, Old Dominion, Consolidated Arizona and Swansea plants. At the United Verde and Detroit plants there was little change from the figures of 1912. Those making less copper were the Shannon. Arizona Copper and Pioneer New plants were completed by the Arizona Copper and Calumet & Ari zona companies, and another was in course of construction for United Verde ores. The disseminated copper mines in Gila, pinal and Greenlee counties yielded approximately 146, 600.000 pounds of copper. Included in this estimate of copper produced are the outputs of the Miami, Ray, Arizona Copper and Detroit mines. The Miam product did not greatly exceed that Oi isn The 3000 ton concentration plant was act ive and the product went inoct lv to Cananea. Mexico. The Interna tional Smelting & Refining Co., will build a cdpper plant at Miami to treat this ore and that from the Inspiration mine. Test plants using the flotation process were operated at Miami and Inspiration, as the saving by concen tration alone is not sufficient. Ray Increases Output Greatly. The Ray Consolidated Copper Co., greatly increased its output, from nearly 36,000,000 pounds of copper in 1912 to about 52,000,000 pounds in 1913, treating 6000 tons of ore per day Production from Tuma and Pima counties was not what it could have been, since the Swansea and Piceer plants were operated only a iew months. At Globe greatly increased shipments were made from the Super ior & Boston, Iron Cap, and Black Warrior mines, and in Pinal county from the Magma mine. With an increase of more than 104 percent the 'mine production . of lead was greater than in any other year. The total output was nearly 14,000, 000 pounds, valued at about $612,000. as against 6,806,443 pounds, valued at $306.20 in 1912. The mines at Bisbee ...!. 1aJ Aa aMt I. 1013 there was a large increase. The Sltat- j tuck mine became a regular producer of silver-lead ore as well as copper ore. In Mohave county an Increaseit tonnage was shipped regularly from the Tennessee mine to the concentra tion plant at Needles, California. Half Million la Spelter. The mine, production of recoverable spelter was about 9.100,000 pounds, valued at $JS10,000, which was an in crease of about 340,000 pounds, or nearly 4 percent over the production of 1912. On account of the lower prHe paid for the metal, the total value decreased more than $90,000 The Gol conda mine, in Mohave county, former ly the largest producer, was making shipments of zinc ore and concentrates only part of the year, and therefore had a greatly decreased output. Much ore was, however, shipped from the San Xavier mine in Pima county and much concentrate was made from Mo have county ores milled at Needles. H. A. CLARK'S RISE FULL OF INTEREST New C. & A. Smelter Superintendent Was a'Maealalftt Laborer Eight Years Ago. Douglas. Ariz., Jan. 3. Harry A, Clark has been named by Capt J. C. Greenway, general manager of the C & A. company, a? smelter superintend ent here, succeeding James Weed, re signed. No intimation has yet been given as to who the assistant superin tendent to (succeed J. A. McDermoti will be. Mr. Clark will shortly remove bis family from Bisbee to Douglas. There in considerable of interest connected with Mr. Clark's rise in the mining world, alight years ago be ap plied for work under Captain Green way, then a mining superintendent in the Lake Superior iron district. He was put on as a machinist He was rapidly promoted to the foremanship of the machine shops. He did not hold that position long and his next promo tion was to be master mechnic. When Captain Greenway came to Arizona he persuaded Clark to accompany him. When the new C. & A. smelter in Douglas was beinr planned Clark was decided upon as the superintendent of construction. Besides being an efficient man, Mr. Clark is possessed of a humorous vein which makes him a general fa vorite. Following the insulation of an 85 horsepower boiler and pumps, the Los Angeles mine, 15 miles southwest of Kacoz&rl, will resume underground work shortly. Several months ago the main shaft. 125 feet in depth, was flooded. The property is under the management o' R. L. Lane, of this city. Extensive bodies of copper, gold and silver ore. much of it of a good shipping: srade, have been opened S. A. D. Upton, of Tombstone, is here financing a zinc property known as the "33" group, in the Dragoon mountains Considerable work has WEI OUTPUT III 1913 ICH LESS Arizona and New Mexico, However, Show Nota ble Increases. Washington, D. C, Jan. 3. Statistics and estimates received by the United States geological survey from all plants known to produce blister copper from domestic ores and from all lake mines Indicate that the copper output of the United States in 1913 will show a con siderable decrease form the record pro duction of 1912. Decreases In production were shown by Michigan. Montana and Alaska, and notable increases by Arizona, Utah and New Mexico. Smelter Production Less. The figures showing smelter produc tion from domestic ores, which have been collected by B. S. Butler, of the geological survey, represent the actual yoduction of most of the companies for 11 months and an estimate of the De cember output. .The November figures for a few companies were not availa ble and these companies furnished es timates for the last two months of the year. According to the statistics and estimates received, the output of blis ter and lake copper was 1,223,700,000 pounds in 1913, against 1,243,268,720 pounds in 1912. At an average price of about 16.3 cents a pound the 1913 output has a value of about $187,200,000. against $205,139,338 for the 1912 output. More Refined Copper. Preliminary statistics showing the output of refined copper are not col lected by the geological survey. Fig ures published by the Copper Pro ducers' association show an output of 1,483,480,408 pounds for the first 11 months of 1913 and indicate that the production of marketable copper by the regular refining plants from ajl sources, domestic and foreign, will amount to 1,618.000,000 pounds for 1913, if the December output is equal to the average for the first 11 months. This compares with 1,588,104,478 pounds in 1912. Imports Were IiCsh. According to the bureau of statistics , imports of pigs, bars and ingots for been done on the group in the past, resulting in opening some promising ore veins. , In order to prevent trespassing upon its property, the Calumet , & Arizona Mining company will fence approxi mately 300 acres of land surrounding its smelter here. The fence will be of high boards, surmounted by three strands of barbed wire. OPERATES CHURN DRILLS AT MAMMOTH Calumet & Arizona TCosumes Operations ob MlaeH and Is Shlpplnc Con centrates to Hayaen. Hayden, Ariz., Jan. 3. The Calumet Arizona Copper company, of Bisbee. has commenced running several churn dtfUa on the iTOlH'Sjf'.lfelnmet & Arizona ' Mining , company and ad joining claims at Mammoth. . Ariz., about 35 miles from Winkelman. The-I Calumet ft Ariaona Mining company h5s recently - resumed operations at the mines, after- a shutdown of several months, and concentrates are now be ing shipped to the local smelter. The C. & A. company is gradually becoming heavily interested -in this section of the country, Superior being where it first started active operations on a large scale. If the ore on the properties of the Calumet & Arizona Mining com pany prove as valuable as reported, the same company contemplates making heavy purchases of' mining lands in that section and commence operations shortly. The ore is practically all a milling ore and, as the C. & A. com pany owns its own smelter at Douglas, the cost of handling the concentrates will be much less than an outside com pany. About 40 men are already em ployed in connection with the churn drills. TeH These People What You Want They Will Respond Promptly Bell 608 & 629. DRUGGISTS A. E. BYAN OPEN AIZ.

EL the first 10 months amounted to 246, 785,319 pounds and the copper content of ore, matte and regulus imported amounted to 88,306,732 pounds of the imports for November and December were equal to the average monthly im ports for the first 10 months the amount of copper entering the United States for the year was about 492,000, 000 pounds, against 410,240,286 pounds for 1912. Considerable of the coppev imported as blister had been previously exported as ore or concentrates. Exports Show Increase. Estimates based on figures published by the bureau of statistics and also by the .Copper Producers association in dicate that the exports of copper for 1913 will show a marked increase over those for 1912 and may equal 866,000, 000 pounds. ... Stocks Considerably Less. Stocks of refined copper held in the United States January 1, 1914, are con siderably less than on January I, ij13 Foreign stocks also show a considera ble decrease. Domestic Consumption. Statistics published by the Copper Producers' association show the domes tic deliveries for the first 11 months of the year as 745,323,190 pounds, indi cating no marked change in consump tion from 1912, for which the Pro ducers' association reported domestic deliveries of 819,665,948 pounds. Prices Are Lower. The average quoted price of electro lytic copper for the year showed a de crease over that for 1912. The average for 1913 was about 15.3 cents a pound, compared with 16.48 cents a pound for 1912. Arizona Still Lead. For 1913 Arizona, with a record itroduction, continues in first piacfe among the copper producing states. The production for 1913 will greatly exceed the 359,322.000 pounds produced In 1912 and may exceed 400,000,000 pounds. The Bisbee district will show a large in crease over the 140,000,000 pounds of blister copper produced in 1912, the output probably reaching nearly 160, 000.000 pounds In 1913. The Morenci-Metcalf district will not equal the 79,900,000 pounds produced In 1912, hut the 1913 output will doubt less exceed 70.000,000 pounds. The Globe-Miami district will show an increase of several million pounds over the 61.600,000 pounds produced In 1912. The Mineral Creek, or Ray dis trict made a large increase, the output for 1913 being approximately 50.000, 000 pounds, compared with 35,000,000 pounds for 1912. The output of the Jerome district will probably exceed the 1912 production of 31.680.000 pounds by a few million pounds. Chlno Jlelpn New Mexico, The production of blister copper from New Mexico increased largely over that of 1912, owing to the increased production of the Chlno Copper com pany, of the Santa Rita district The output of copper in concentrates by the Chlno company for the first three quarters of the year was over 39,000,000 pounds, indicating a production for the year of over 50,000,000 pounds. NEW LAW GIVES AN IMPETUS TO MINING For 10 Cents an Acre Prospectors May Get the Right to Search for Minerals . In West Texas State Lands. Austin, Texas, Jan. 3. Development of the mineral resources of the state promises to be greatly accelerated thro'uE-rt the enactment bv the retrular i session of the 33d legislature of the law which permits prospecting tor sucn minerals according "to land commis sioner Robison. He said that he has already granted a number of permits &P ngrsons who wish to prospect for flljerals In the western and north -WsVtern portion of the stste. The land commissioner can issue the permit to any applicant upon the payment of 10 cents per acre for the land through whldh ft Islntendea to prospect When minerals in paying quantities are found the applicant has the right to lease the land for a period of 10 years. Bach applicant is confined to 1280 acres, but when such land Is situated within 10 miles of any producing mine or oil or gas well, the number of acres that may be awarded Is restricted to 200. GOLD MIXES NEAR KINGMAN EXPECT BIG 1914 OUTPUT Kingman, Ariz., Jan. 3. At the passing of another record year for ihe mining Industry of Mohave county mining men are making estimates of how far the principal properties of the county will exceed the production1 of 1913 during the present year. Improvements and additions at the Tom Reed insure a gain of more than $100,000 in gold output It is believed that the Tom Reed will produce no less than $1,300,000 during 1914. The Gold Road will show a large gain in gold production and the Ten nessee a big grain in lead and zinc The Cycloplc is also certain to leave its 1913 record far behind. OTGH2 312 SAK ANTONIO ST.
