Big Hole Copper Prospects Highlight Diamond District
A correspondent reports in the Big Hole Basin near Idaho and 18 miles south of Jackson that copper development may rival beef production. The Dark Horse mine of Calumet and Montana Mining Co. shows high grade copper ore with 70 percent copper potential, and nearby projects Schumacher Burfiend Buck and Jahnke Bros. offer lucrative copper lead and silver prospects. The group expects major mining activity, new roads, a 50 ton concentrator, a drill, and planned post office at the mine.
