Butte & Superior Favored By Court In Ore Case
The federal court in Butte favors the Butte & Superior in the long dispute over ore from the Elm Orlu ground. Judge George A Bourquin held the case is one for damages and not conversion, impacting potential zinc price settlements and ore valuations. The decision sets that ore sales after mining and associated costs influence the final accounting, with further data and detailed monthly valuations to follow if the parties fail to agree.

Ownership and mining dispute over zinc ores
A legal filing argues over title to ores beneath two claims and seeks a court accounting. It asserts adverse claims to minerals from Black Rock and Elm Orly sections, contends no conversion occurred, and seeks a decree for the value of ores wrongfully taken plus accounting. The case hinges on ownership, the upshot of a 1912 compromise, and ore value in situ after mining and processing costs. The court weighs mining allowances, processing recoveries, and the proper remedy in equity.
