MORRISTOWN LEAD AND SILVER.


We find the following in the report
of the late Geological Survey of this
State:
In the eastern part of Morristown, on
the land of Elias Metcalf, ESQ. the soil
is much discolored by metalliferous vein
that occurs in the talcose slate, and runs
nearly in line with its strata. The
gangue has a strike N. 100 E.. and dips
80 Q w., and in it are found the sui
phurets of lead, zinc and iron, and also
the carbonate (?) Of iron. 1t has thick
ness Of sixteen to twenty inches, and its
outcrop may be traced more than ten
rods.
An excavation has heen made upon the
vein about ten feet long and eight feet
deep, but no material change in its char
acter was observed, nor was there much
lead obtained. The sulphuret of lead is
quite sparsely disseminated in the vein
stone, aud the chance for getting a ready
supply for bullets" is very far from be-
ing equal to what tradition says the "old
Indian had. who, "when the country
was new" use to 60 and chop it from the
leaden lodges Of Elpore Mountain, that is
in full view, and not far south of this To-
cality
T. Sterry Hunt, Esq, Chemist OF the
Vermont Geological Survey under Prof.
Adams, tested some of the lead ore from
Morristown, for silver, and the following
is his report:
Galena. Morristown. A portion of
lead reduced from this ore, gave a small
quantity of silver by cuppellation. 1t
was equal to one-ffth of one per centum,
which is four pounds of silver to the ton
q 900 lbs.) of metal This quantity
will be we'll worth working, provided the
lead IS abundant An assay on another
portion of ore, embracing fragments from
several specimens to afford an average.
will be very desirable, as the general
proportion Of silver may be greater or
less than that afforded by the specimen
examined. Probably one pound of sill
yer in ton of lead would more than re-
pay the cost of extraction. as lead yield
ing only four ounces to the ton is said to
be proftably cupelled in Great Britain"
