This is a payroll sheet from The Commonwealth Mining and Milling Company of Cochise County, Arizona dated June 1, 1916. In 1915, the mine produced 89,000 tons mnth for nine months and realized a yield of 6,150 oz. of gold and 507,531 oz of silver. Of course, you can tell from this tally sheet that the actual miners were paid not quite what that would warrant today, with a high salary of $66.50 to a low of $2.
Interesting look at mining history in silver and gold mining. Please see photos for more detail and condition.
