PROSPECTOS
Of the Copper King Mining Co.
of Arizona.
Tha Prospector has received a pros-
pectus of a Cochise county raining
incorporation whleh. has 22 claims
near Bisbae 15 of which adjoin the
famous Copper Queen. There is no
question but what aome o'ir excel
lent mines exist in this rich copper
district and the formation of this
company will, when the properties are
worked, and enough money is said to
be insured by the incorporators for
its immediate working, will doubtless
make another big prodncer within our
confines. The company ia incorporat
ed for $5,000,000 and the following
New York men are at tho bead of the
enterprise, B. 0. Davis, W. H. Mack,
Tboe. F. Gaynor. Charles R. Lee and
Jere R. Fleet; with offices at 168
Remsen 8t. Brooklyn, -New York.
A limited amount of stock is placed
on the board for machinery and
development and the depository is
given as the Long Island Safe Deposit
Co. of New York. Ficial agenta are
stationed at many cities and Blaek-
burn and Vansur of Bisbee are the
appointed agents at tha copper camp
through whom applica'iona and
particulars are furnished. Follow'ng
in the prospectus in full :
In 1894 the United Stated produced
3i,183,174 pounds of copper, valued
atf33,lJ2,lL Copper ranks No. 4
in our mineral productions, the first
in rank is pig iron, about $125,000,000 ;
second, silver, 164,000,000: third, gold,
$30X,00'). Nearly all of this im
mense amount of copper was pro
duced in three mining districts, each
covering a limited territory, namely,
Lake Superior, Montana and Arizona.
The Lake Superior district produced
nearly one-third of it. Montana
produced slightly more than Lake
Superior, and Arizona produced the
greater part of the balance. The Cal
umet and Hecla mine, in tie Le
Superior district, produces from forty
to eighty million pounds annually,
and has paid OKI toils stockholders
aver forty-tbrep million dollars in div
idends on a capital stock of only two
and a half million dollars. The par
value of the shares is $25, and it now
sells for $315 per share; yet when the
mine was a prospest, the stock sold
for 50 cents per share, baing 2 cent
pr dollar (share). The Anacoada, in
Montana, produced copper to the
value of eleven million dollars ia 1881,
and made set, aver five million dol
lars. A aontrolliog interest in this
property waa recently purchased by
the Rotbehilds for fifteen milliaa dol
lars, and the gold was shipped' in pay.

per pound, this copper is worOi $200,
000, or equal to a product of two mil
lion four hundred thousand dollars per
year, and claims to have ere to run
twenty-five years at the aame rate
Unlike geld or silver, the copper
mines in the United States are con
fined to three woll known districts,
and the deposits are in large depoiits,
not in small veins. "The average
yield of copper per ton of ore in the
Lake Superior district is only 1.83 per
cent., equal to net quite forty pounds
of copper per ton of ore; excluding
the richest miner, the Calumet and
Heels, and the Tamarack, the yield is
not quite 1 per cent., or only twenty
pounds of copper to two thousand
pounds of ore." Yet all the mines in
this district pay large dividends, and
produce the greatest quautity of cop
pir, Wa quote from "Mineral Indus
iris of the United states," compiled
by the United Stales Geological Sur
vey, and published under authority of
the Government, pp. 153, 16S: "The
pioduct ol the MonUna mines shows
ajieldo! 7 per cent. The principal
advantage of tha Arizona mines, as
competitors in tha copper market,
lies iu the fact that the ores are rela
tively rich,- yielding a fraction over 10
per cent., and are easily reduced to
block copper, bting almost exclusively
oxidized ores. It is interesting to
segregate one group of refiners which
treats exclusivsly, high grade, pure
material, like Arizona bars and Mon
tana blister copper works which pro
duced over one hundred and five mil
lion pounds of refinad copper, incur
red only $710,619 exaense, or 0.C9 cent
per pound."
The Copper King owns fifteen
full mining claims, 600 by 1,500 feet
in area (about ten acres, or equal to
one hundred and sixty acres in all),
adjoining the properties of the Copper
Queen, iu the town of Biabee, Cochise
county, Arizona. Coch'se county,
occupies the southeastern portion ol
the Territory, and has an area of
neatly six thousand square miles.
Again we quote: "Next to Tomb-
toe, the iqost important town in the
Territory is Bisbee,in tbeMule moun
tain, about thirty miles south of
Tombstone. Here are located the
wurks of the Copper Queen mine. The
company keeps five furnaces in con
aunt operation three af them of a
capacity af filty-tive tons each per
day, one other, a ojonster of a daily
capaicity of one hundred and fifty
tons. The copper production of the
.aal year waa not far from twelve mil
lion pounds of bullion. The mines u(
the company are upon a magnificent
body of ore that seems practically ex -heastless.
About sjx hundred men
are empleyed. The town has a popu
lation of about a I teen bundled, and is
as quiet as any New England village."
(pp. 160, 161).
The Copper King of Arlsona also
owns eight other claims, about seven
miles northeast of Biabee, at a place
known as Solomon Springs, where toe
copper ore comes to tha surfaae, and
Cn be 'racfd in large b'idiel a'l over
tha whole eight claim. This grorp
has mure than 75 per cent, better
showing, ou top, fur a big mine than
ever the Copper Queen properties had.
Again we quoto: 'This camp (Cis
bee) and all the mint. be:e!iiin what
is more properly cal'ed a mineral
zone; there being io vrell defined
lead or veins ou the surface traceable
for any distance; but the whole sur
face it covered with an i'oti quartz,
highly u.iueralizeit, citing assays in
gold from two lontveuteeu dollars per
ton, with a mall per cet.t. of silver;
and as depth is attained invariably
opening up into large bodies of rich
copper ore. This lias been the result
of all piospects worked to any depth
in this camp. All the tiro of tlii
camp are of a character called free
smelting ores, carrying tht-irown flux,
and requiring only heat tu extract the
meal. Large coal fields have aleo
ben discovered lees than forty miles
distant, which undoubtedly adds great
value to the properties cf this camp.'
(pp.163, 16i).
From the best information obtain
able (that is, of tho miners themtelve),
we learn that the underground work
ings of the Copper Queen are close up
to several of our adjoining claims, aud
where it has immense bodies o( rich
ore, all pitching toward our properties.
These ores run from 10 to as high as
60 per cent, in copper, with frequent
large masses of pure, uative copper.
Every dollar of the proceeds of the
shares sold will bo put into sinking
hafts and developing thes twenty
t tree claims, and taking cut the ore,
aud electing a smelter of a capacity of
OJehundrcd tons of ore per day. A
minimum of 10 per cent, in copper
(and it will average 0 per cent.) it
200 p unds of copper in 2,000 pounds
of ore, which at 10 cents per pound
gi?es the value of $20 per ton to the
ore; one hundred Ions per day gives a
Kross product of $2,000 per day. Figure
the total expense of production at $10
per ton (and it will not average $4),
we have a net product ot $1,000 per
day; and for 300 working days we have
$300,000, applicable to division among
the stockholders in the form of
dividends; $300,000 will pay a dividend
of 5 per cent, on the par value of the
whole capital slock, and leave a sur
plus ol $50,000 to go to betterments,
and so to increaan the product the
second year, until in a few year we
could equal tho Copper Qaeen in the
magnitude of our production. The
first year the stockholder will getae a
dividend the amount per share which
bisstock has cost him, and will have
a stock worth more than its lace value
in earning capacity, and can realize
twenty for one on his money ; and this
stock will not only go to par, but it
will go te way above par. This is not
an estimate or prediction, but it is the
actual history of all tho great ropper
companies; and we have the best
properties in this country, and better
prospects than any of them ever had
at their inception; and we require
only a comparatively small amount
of cspital to makes big mine out of
these twenty-three claims, worth fully
the par value of our capital stock, $5,-
000,000. We estimate on no unknown
quantities; we aronot prospecting or
hunting about in the rock at an ex
pense of thousands of dollars to find a
vein of ore fas is done in gold and sil
ver prospects), and treating to the
doctrine of chances for our rctnrns;
but we have the ore, and we have it
in large and rich bodies; and we only
require the money to sink shafts and
take it oa, and for the raaobinery to
reduce it. The $3,000,000 of slock is
tied up in trust, and cauoot be sold,
cut up, transferred or astigncd until
sufficient of $2,000,000 stock is sold to
develop the property. Wa have no
salaried officers or supernumeraries,
but every cent is to go into the
developing of the property. Iu mak
ing 5,000,000 one-dollar share, we
have proved that the $5 or $100 men
shall come in on the ground floor
equal with the $5,000 or $20,000 men.
Every dollar equals every other dollar
and will be worth $20 within a short
time, when it has been used on the
property.
We have the samples of this ore in
our offices. The recorded certificates
of the location of these twenty-three
claims, and the clean tranIrs of the
titles to this company are alo in onr
offices and open to inspection.
We expect to begin work on.
