Floods hinder mining operations near Yuma district
In the Yuma area the New King of Arizona mines face transport and water challenges. Flooded routes across the desert and the 25 mile haul to the Southern Pacific station at Dome complicate ore movement from Bouse and the Arizona California railroad. A new 1500 foot ledge tests above $20 per ton in gold, with ore grades around $4 per ton for lower grade ore. A 100 ton mill is planned at the old site, with larger concentrating facilities contemplated. Water storage development supports future operations.
