Improved Methods of Extracting Values from Low Grade Copper Ore Leads to more Claims Located.

TRUTH AND GOSSIP

__________

  Emery County Progress has this reference to parties well know in Carbon County:  E. T. Wolverton, Fred T. Stearns, A. Tuttle, William Floyd and other are plastering the country about Cottonwood Wash, Keg Springs and Monument Hill, all lying between Castle Dale and Green River stations, with location notices.  Some of this territory has been indifferently prospected in years past, and some openings a hundred feet in length, or depth, made.  The property so worked has long since been abandoned.  The mineral showing is mostly copper, but the ore is of very low grade.  With the rising price of copper and improved methods for extracting values from low grade ore no doubt there are mineral deposits in that section of country that would pay to work.
