Mining notes outline new bonds and strikes in Phoenix camp
The report details bonding of the Idaho and Washington group by R E L Brown and a 50 foot sinking on the Rob Roy claim near the Bell claim with rich galena finds. It notes a Spokane meeting of northwest smelter representatives, 250 miners at work on multiple Phoenix properties, and several new companies formed in Greenwood with large capitals. A strong Monarch strike and plans for bunk houses and development are described, with Rawhide and other copper properties owned by Dominion Copper Co Ltd and led by Wm Mann and Hugh Sutherland.
