MOUNTAIN RANGES OF UTAH.
Most of the mining districts of Utah are situated in and confined to the two principal mountain ranges of said Territory. These ranges run on either side of the Jordan Valley, almost parallel to each other, and are known as the Wasatch and Oquirrh Ranges.
The Wasatch Range extends from the Territory of Idaho, on the north- ern boundary of Utah, to the Colorado River on the south, running in a south- southwesterly direction through the central portion of Utah, and forming the division between the Great Salt Lake Basin on the west-northwest and the waters of the Colorado River on the east-southeast. The flanks of this range differ materially in their geological structure and appearance; the eastern flank is formed either by a series of broad terraces and plateaus, or in long waving ridges and slopes, such as are peculiar to the apex of the coal formations. In the eastern flank we observe mainly the sandstones, shales and limestones peculiar to the Cretacious and Tertiary ages, in which appear the large coal beds known to exist in Utah Territory. The western flank of the Wasatch is very steep and abrupt, and comprises the older crystalline rocks of the Silurian, Devonian and the Carboniferous ages, in which appear the rich mineral deposits and which are the treasure chambers for which Utah is justly celebrated in America. The altitude of the Wasatch range varies between 8,000 and 12, 500 feet above the level of the sea. It is also a peculiar phenomenon that the dislocations of the form- ations on the western flank are more numerous and extensive than those of the eastern. The principal mining districts, situated in the Wasatch range are: Portage, Logan, Millville, Mineral Point, Willard, Bear Canyon, Adams, Mill Creek, New Eldorado, Uintah, Blue Ledge, Big and Little Cottonwood, American Fork, Silver Lake, Draperville, Snake Creek, Provo, Cook, Spanish Fork, Santaquin, Timmons or Mount Nebo, Canal, Gordon, Granite, Beaver, Ohio, Warsaw, Antimony, Summer, Iron Spring or Magnetic, Silver Belt, Pinto and Harrisburg.
The Oquirrh Range commences at the south end the Great Salt Lake, and extends far into the southern part of the Territory. The formations of this range are entirely of the rocks peculiar to the Silurian, Devonian and Carboniferous ages, and show a series of extensive breaks and faults. The mining districts situated in the Oquirrh Mountain Range are: West Moun- tain or Bingham, Tooele, Rush Valley or Stockton, Ophir, Camp Floyd, Cedar Valley, Osceola, Spring Pass, Utah, Tintic, Oak Creek, Granite, Bradshaw, Lincoln, Gordon and Galena.
Both mountain ranges are crossed by powerful and extensive dykes of eruptive rock, representing principally granite, syenitic and dioritic prophy- ries and diabase. Besides the before-mentioned large and principal mountain ranges of Utah are several others of less extent. The first of these is situated about eighteen miles west of the Oquirrh Range, and known as the Onoqui, or Skull Valley range; this range begins at the western side of the Great Salt Lake, and extends into Sevier Valley, where it disappears in the desert plain. The mining districts situated in the Onoqui Mountain Range, are: Lake Side, Columbia and Indian Spring Districts.
West of the Onoqui Range appears the Cedar Mountain Range, which is more extensive than the former, commencing on the Central Pacific Rail- road by Summit Station, and running southerly through the Great Desert a
73

distance of more than three hundred miles. The mining districts situated in the Cedar Range are: Dugway, Desert, Granite Mountain, Snake Valley, Detroit, Sevier Lake and Saw Back.
The next is the Snake Range, which forms the western boundary line of Utah, between this Territory and the State of Nevada. The mining districts situated in the Snake Range and spurs thereof, are: Rosebud, Pilot Peak, Newfoundland, Silver Islet, Dutch Flat, Clifton, Hastings, Kern, Pleasant Valley, Wilson, Sacramento and Lexington.
The formation of the last named two ranges consist chiefly of granite, porphyries, basalt, silurian schists, quartzite, lava and limestone.
There is as yet little known about the mineral wealth of the last named three ranges, as the same has only been explored by the hardy miner in a few places, but such explorations as have been made, give great hopes for their future.
In the Beaver River Range, with the Picacho, San Francisco and Wah-Wah Mountains are situated the Beaver Lake, North Star, Rocky, Star, Preuss, San Francisco and Pine Grove Mining Districts. West of the Beaver River Range are the Pinon Mountains, in which is situated Washington Mining District.

ADAMS DISTRICT.
Adams District is situated north and east of Salt Lake City, and distant seven miles. The approach is through City Creek Canyon, over one of the best canyon roads in the Territory. Prospecting had been carried on for three or four years, but without success until May 21, 1873, when the Julia was located. Prospectors immediately flocked in, and a district was formed from the Hot Spring Mining District, on July 3, 1873. The district covers · an area of forty-nine square miles. Nearly 100 locations have been made and about thirty claims worked to good advantage. The formation is regu- lar: general course of the strata is nearly northwest and southeast, bear- ing east and west. Principal locations are:
General Scott, on Scott Hill, located June 1, 1873; shaft 300 feet, through a four-foot vein of ledge matter containing galena and iron in a state of oxide; extensively developed. From assays made, thirty ounces silver, and from 50 to 70 per cent. leåd, with a small percentage of anti- mony, were obtained.
Red Bird, the principal location on Scott Hill; several tunnels and drifts ; shaft sixty feet, through a vein averaging three feet, and containing galena of low grade, with iron averaging 15 per cent.
Summit, sister claim to the Red Bird, and much of the same character, although the Summit ore contains less iron.
Victorine, situated at the head of North Mill Creek Canyon; shaft fifty feet sunk through a four-foot ledge of burnt iron and galena.
The Henry, lying between the Scott and Victorine; shaft 100 feet; showing similar to the Scott. The North Star, Great Eastern, Snow Drift, Cerro Gordo, Chipmunk and some minor locations have nearly the same appearance.
The Beacon Ledge, the first location made of milling ore; shows traces of copper, silver, gold and lead; formation, sub-carboniferous limestone, with an overlying band of friable quartzite; highest assay made was $113. Adjoining this claim is the George Q. Cannon.
San Domingo, principal location in Cottonwood Fork; located July 6, 1873; situated on the slope leading to Scott Hill; has a vein of decomposed galena, giving oxides and carbonates of lead rich in silver, with small per- centage of gold. Assays of picked ore run $300 per ton.
AMERICAN FORK DISTRICT.
American Fork and Silver Lake Mining Districts adjoin Little Cotton- wood Mining District with the north boundary line by Wellington, Emerald and Peruvian Hills. The boundary between American Fork on the south
75
UTAH GAZETTEER.
and Snake Creek District on the north, is formed by Pittsburgh Hill. The principal characteristic geological formations of these districts are: dolomite, or magnesian limestone, schist, quartzite or vitreous sandstone of the lower Silurian and Devonian periods, and underlying all, the granite, just the same as they overlie the granite of the Cottonwoods on the eastern flank of the great granite ridge of Little Cottonwood, and as they overlie the granite of Uintah and Blue Ledge Mining Districts. The Silurian and Devonian limestones overlie the quartzite, from which they are separated by a thin bed of schist, ten to forty feet in thickness. These limestones appear in beds and strata, and assume the most grotesque forms, ridges, towers, spires and battlements, and represent a mass from 1,000 to 2,000 feet in thickness. Through this limestone and quartzite break American Fork, South Fork, Deer Creek, Dry Canyon, Mary Ellen, Major Evans and Porcupine Gulch as so many large, main and tributary channels formed by the great ancient water courses and upheavals, leaving the broken and twisted line of the strata on either side of the channel facing each other.
The character of the ores in American Fork and Silver Lake is as follows: galena, carbonate, chlorides, bromides, and sulphates of silver. Ochreous earth, iron, and porous quartz constitute the greater part of the gangue or vein material as a result of the oxidation of argentiferous and auriferous minerals.
The most characteristic ores are : galena, cerussite, silver glance, copper glance and free gold. The components of the ore are numerous, and comprise galena, sphalerite, pyrites, Jamesonite, argentite, wad, stephanite, cervantite, boulangerite, mimetite, limonite, bromyrite, anglesite, cotunnite, - Crookesite, and kaolin.
The principal mines are : The Miller Mining and Smelting Company mines, comprising the Miller, Wyoming, Alpine, Tonto, Tom Green, Miller First West Extension, Sarchfield and Aspinwall, all of which have a United States Patent. They are developed by the Car, Lady Annie, Emmeline. Alpine, Wyoming, Sarchfield, Comet and Mormon tunnels, crossing the entire hill diagonally in an easterly and westerly direction, cutting the lodes at various depths to a depth of 400 feet vertical below the surface, and over 26,000 feet in length of drifts, levels, inclines and shafts. Value of the ore, $47 to $130 per ton. Veins from three to thirty-eight feet wide. Produced enormous quantities of the above ore. Mary Ellen, Live Yankee, Live Yankee First West Extension, Powers and Quartzite mines embrace a contact vein between quartzite and limestone. The vein is eight to fifty feet wide, developed extensively by thousands of feet in numerous tunnels, drifts, levels, shafts and inclines. Value of the ore. $20 to $130 per ton as sold. All the mines have United States Patents. Silver Bell, Mona, Eudora, First Chance, Henrietta and Red Cloud have a contact vein between quartzite and limestone, one to eight feet wide, containing galena. chlorides and bromides, valued at from $So to $300 per ton as sold. Devel- oped by a main incline to a depth of 400 feet, numerous drifts, adits and levels, and a tunnel over 1,300 feet long, which tunnel at a length of 2, 200 feet will tap the lodes on the strike at a depth of from 1, 200 to 1, 600 feet. Work continues vigorously by contract. Thousands of tons of good ore are on the dumps ready for shipment. All the mines have United States Patents. Russler, Germania and Excelsior are fissure veins in the quartzite, three to five feet wide, containing galena, carbonate of lead, and free gold. Lead ores sell readily at $47 to $130 per ton. Gold ore assays from $130 to $21,000 per ton. Developed by one shaft 200 feet deep, two other shafts, each about «00 feet deep, and several drifts and adits. Russler and Excelsior have United States Patents. Lady Annie, La Belle, Bredemeyer No. 2, Wacht am Rhein, Meacoque, Sparrow Hawk, Borussia and Cologne, work on true fissure veins in

considerable work in shafts and tunnels, demonstrating clearly the existence of a strong mother lode; but here the trouble is with surface water, and to overcome this difficulty, the company have, in the past year, concluded to run a tunnel through the quartzite. This tunnel will first tap the Diehl lode at a distance of about 140 feet, and at a depth of from 400 to 500 feet below the surface. This tunnel is over III feet long. A shaft in the Anna shows a strong vein of good galena. All in all it is easy to pronounce a prosper- ous future for the Cariboo Company's mining property. Most of the prop- erties have United States Patents.

Rosebud, Tidy, Modoc and Swiftsure are very promising mines on Silver Glance Hill, with considerable development done.
Pittsburgh, Hudson and Pioneer. These mines work on bed and con- tact veins in the limestone and between the limestone and quartzite. The veins are three to eight feet wide, contain galena and carbonate of lead, sold at from $18 to $30 per ton. Developments consist of tunnels, drifts, levels, shafts and inclines to an aggregate length of 15,000 feet, from which large quantities of ore have been and will yet be extracted. The property is secured by United States Patents.
War Eagle A and B, secured by United States Patent, bed in limestone three feet wide; character of ore the same as in the Pittsburgh. The prop- erty is well developed.
Deer Creek Company's mines, comprising the Happy Boy, Ruthven, Bertie, Governor Murray and Silver. Value of the ore, $47 to $70 per ton, developed by several tunnels, drifts, shafts and cuts. The property . is secured by United States Patents.

Knight Templar and Royal Arch mines and millsites; vein six inches to five feet wide, containing galena, carbonate of lead and chloride of silver. Ores sold readily at from $47 to $130 per ton. Developments consist of a main tunnel over 300 feet long and several shafts, drifts, inclines and cuts. The tunnel at a length of 750 feet will be over 1,000 feet below the surface and apex of the vein.
Other prominent mines of these districts, more or less extensively developed, with good pay ore in sight, are: The Conqueror, Queen of Sheba, Sultana, Grand View, Fair View, Sarah, May, and many others.
The foregoing mines of American Fork and Silver Lake have pro- duced in the past immense quantities of rich ore, and are beyond doubt or dispute capable of producing immense quantities of the best quality again.
BEAVER AND GARFIELD COUNTIES.
Beaver County contains, in addition to the Stars and Rocky Mining Districts, the Bradshaw, Lincoln, Galena, Gordon, Granite, Beaver, Ohio and Warsaw. The nearest principal business places to these districts are Frisco, Milford, Minersville and Beaver City. The veins or lodes in these
78
UTAH GAZETTEER.
districts are from two to six feet wide, carrying from 40 to 54 per cent. lead, and from 20 to 130 ounces of silver per ton. There are also other lodes which carry from 10 to 27 per cent. copper (mostly as oxides and carbonates, and some copper glance) and some gold and silver. Most of these lodes lie at and along the base of the mountains, and are easily traced . along the surface for a considerable distance. Near by Beaver Lake Dis- trict immense deposits of sulphurets and oxides average over 40 per cent. of pure metal. Copper stain is frequently visible on the hillsides, and there is not the least doubt, that many more valuable lodes and mineral deposits would be discovered, were proper search made and numerous indi- cations followed up as they should be. There seems no doubt that some sections of Beaver County will become very important for copper smelting in the near future. One of the reasons that hitherto so little attention has been paid to this important mineral-bearing section of Utah was the former great distance from the railroad, and in some places a scarcity of water.
Twelve miles west of Beaver City several veins of bismuth ore have been found. These lie near together, in a magnesian limestone of Silurian age, and vary from one to nine feet in thickness. The gangue is of a ser- pentinous character, and carries lime garnets, iron oxides, tremolite and other minerals. The ore, a sulphide and oxide, free from arsenic and anti- mony, varies from 1 to 6 per cent. of the total vein matter, but is easily con- centrated. In the concentrated product, which gave 30 per cent. of bismuth, molybdenum was found, which, in view of the high price of that metal and its general use, may prove an important discovery.
Several shafts sunk upon these properties show strong and well defined veins, and on account of the high price of bismuth, and the rarity of its being found thus free from arsenic and antimony (a fact that has been amply proved), they bid fair to become of very much value.
In this same county are veins of graphite and deposits ot sulphur, which will, at no distant day, be utilized to their full extent. Indeed, few places offer such inducements to capital or have such good prospects of a golden future as does Beaver County, or, more correctly, as the mining districts of Beaver County.
About eighteen to twenty miles southeast of Warsaw Mining District commences Antimony Mining District, extending twenty-one miles east and twenty miles south, situated formerly in Iron County, now Garfield County.
The leading mines in the Bradshaw Mining District are: The Cave, Houdoo, Cypress, Sherman, Triangle, Governor and Summit mines. In Lincoln Mining District, the Creole, December, Donnerberg, Delaware, Forest Queen, Galena, Quincy, Rollins, Rattler and Stampede. In Gordon Mining District, the Albert, Boston Sulphur, Conqueror, Sulphur Excelsior, Mammoth, Mariposa, Prince Albert, Philadelphia, Sulphur, Sulphur King, Utah and New York sulphur mines. In Granite Mining District, the Bis- muth, King Bismuth, Star and San Francisco bismuth mines. In Beaver Mining District, the Beaver Lake, No. 2, Big Mountain, Belcher, Copper Belt, Fillmore, Monarch and Niagara mines. In Ohio Mining District, the Belcher, Daniel Webster, Great Western, St. Lawrence, Union and other mines.
The mines of the American Antimony Company consist of twenty-five claims, covering about 430 acres of antimony mineral-bearing ground, situ- ated in Coyote Mining District on a tributary of the east fork of the Sevier River, at the south end of Grass Valley in Garfield County. While there is in the aggregate a considerable quantity of oxidized ore present, assaying upwards of 70 per cent. antimony, the great mass of ore is stibnite or sulphide of antimony, carrying about 72 per cent. of antimony and 28 per cent. of sulphur.
