Arizona Copper Company Buys The Shannon Speculation
Clifton Arizona June 28 The state of the Shannon property at Metcalf above Clifton has been acquired by Arizona Copper Company Ltd. The purchase includes 100 acres, a well equipped railroad, smelting and concentrating units, and facilities for employees. The Clifton smelter will be scrapped and the railroad abandoned for now, with no plan to operate the mines. General Manager Norm Carmichael says the deal is speculative, not investment, as Shannon showed profits only during copper market peaks and had high production costs. The company plans leaching research and a new teaching plant may be built on Shannon grounds, while Metcalf and Coronado operations are shut and workers reassigned.
