Magnetic iron ore land deal fuels Southern rail plans
A Jefferson correspondent reports 10 000 acres of magnetic iron ore land were leased in the county by Philadelphia capitalists linked to the Philadelphia Steel Co and others. The deal includes the Balou Home Place Bank yielding 67 percent and royalty of 25 cents per ton. Railroads are planned, with possible extension of Norfolk and Western and Southern lines. Miners restart at Ore Knob Copper Mines, and Zinn and Bach of Milwaukee have acquired Elk Knob Copper Mine for 40 000, while land purchases signal a broad copper boom and railroad expansion. The Wilmington Messenger notes North Carolina copper prospects attract attention and may elevate Rowan to a major copper district.
