Patent Amalgamating Rifle.
Patent Issued March 1st, 1s

Patent Issued March 1st, 1850.
The invention consists of forcing Quicksilver
into blocks of wood, which are USED as false bot
| toms for sluiees, thereby giving Quicksilver
surface until the blocks are worn out. As the
blocks are gradually worn by the gravel, a
fresh supply of Quicksilver is constantly expos
ed, ready to amalgamate the gold that comes in
contact with them.
The machines for forcing Quicksilver into
the blocks, are of simple construction and dura-
BILE. One man can press in one hundred pounds
of Quicksilver in day, which will give a hun
dred feet of Quicksilver surface, and the pro-
cess is easily learned.
The shop cost of the machines, are from
$14 to $40, according to size.
The following letters from practical Miners
at Michigan Bluffs, Placer County, where the
PATENT RIFFLES were first introduced,

Quicksilver Block Rifles, and consider them
the best method for saving fine gold ever used.
used them on the American River this last
summer, and found that by using them, could
save one fourth more gold, than by any other
Rifles now in use. Hoping that your Rifles
will be extensively introduced throug hout the
State, and meet with the success they deserve.
1rendiu yours truly.
GEORGE Z. BENNEr,
MICHIGAN BLUFFS, April 10th SO.
Mr.. Briggs, Sir. l have used your patent
amalgamating Rifle and am satisfied that it is
a good invention; we have cleaned up more and
finer gold than we ever did before in the same
length oftime. There has not been as much
wash running in the gulch as there will be by
and by, as the boys have not commenced wash
ing pay dirt yet.
Yours truly,
