Gold and Onyx Quarries Highlight New Mexico Mines
The Santa Fe New Mexican prints Walter Hadley’s 1893 mineral production totals for Dona Ana Santa Fe Sierra Socorro Taos and other counties with gold valued at 20 per ounce and silver at 1.29 per ounce. Albuquerque Citizen describes the O neill onyx quarries near Prescott famed for luminous multi color blocks and a nine and a half by three foot polished slab exhibited in Chicago. The piece also notes few mining failures in 1893 across western states and territories and reports a green water shoal sighting from the Prof Morse near New Orleans with strong currents and questions about Gulf disturbances. The Denver section covers revised U S locations for quartz vein claims.
