Holland reports copper price strength could revive exploration and development in Connecticut and New Jersey where mines have long been neglected. The piece links high brass and copper stock values to broader American mining prospects, noting past Connecticut copper origins of brass industry and the Vanderbilt Morgan led bond issue as signs of renewed confidence in rail and metal sectors.
