The company owned claims on 200 acres that adjoined the Inspiration Needles Co. Prior to this company, it was said that the property had 19 owners who were able to ship 272 tons of ore assaying at 2.6% to 5% copper in 1915. Drilling in 1918 indicated that the first hole hit ore at 420 x 2019;. The second hole hit ore at 585x 2019; and the third hit rich chalcocite. There was never any production from this company and it was idle and presumed a mining scam. Harry Lefkovitz was the promoter of this company who ended up in jail in for stock fraud
