| Show COPPER IN A PLAGER Singular Discovery in Cherry Creek Canyon LATEST SMELTER RECORD Two More Furnaces In Commission at tho Murray Plant Furnaces at the U S Plant Now Under Fire The VictorBoss Tweed Upraise Day on tho Mining Exchange Active Work on the Keystone Ore and Bullion Settlements Note and Personal Per-sonal While sinking for water In Cherry crock canyon Summit county a few days ago the man In charge of the undertaking broke Into n coppcrbcur lug placer I that has been found only at rarest Intervals outside the Lake Superior region In Michigan and which la fomenting all kinds of excitement ex-citement Particulars of the discovery and also a sample of the cop rbcu1 InS sands were brought to town yes lerday by Robert McMlchaels for many years a resident of Hoytsvlllo on the hanks of the Weber river From his story It appears that the owners of the Cutler ranch were dropping down Into Cherry creek for water for ranch nee when at i depth of llftyflv < > feet a stratum of nnl wns uncovered Unit with the pump was raised to the surface sur-face In It the men detected the presence pres-ence of metal that they believed to be gold In appearance the metal Iv I not unlike gold but when the sample was referred to an assayer yesterday the dream was ha terN However the copper In native state occurs In striking strik-ing abundance and Mr McMlchaels Is wondering If there are not means of making a commercial proposition out of f Less than a mile cast 1 of the hole through which the pincer was tapped CMr McMlchaelH Is I developing a ledge In the sandstone about four feet between be-tween the walls from which he Is extracting ex-tracting ores that afford as much UH 15 percent copper with nineteen ounces silver and he Is I now inclined to DIG belief that the metallic contents of the placer are derived from those of his ledge which IK covered by the Blue Boll group and Into which h has dropped 1 shaft to n dell h of sixtyfive feet Again It Is not very far from this that a Park City crowd Is prospecting the Copper Coin group under a leaio and bond and In which very high grade copper ores arc occurring In limited fled Quantity Certainly the cpndlton Is an Interesting one and will appeal no doubt to the mining man as methods meth-ods In use In the Lake Superior region ought to be adapted to the copper bearing sands that appear to exist Inconsiderable

economical outlet for the ore bodies with which latter connection should be made within the next eight months or about 1000 fCc beyond the present station sta-tion To prosecute this work ten men with machine drills are forging their way through the rock and under the direction of George Hancock who took the superlntendcncy of the proposition some time ago Meesrs Drlficoll and Woolley report the ore bodies at thai mine large while running In copper gold and silver but explain that inclosing In-closing down the original workings until the new tunnel Is completed the management has shown good
