PARTING GOLD FROM QUARTZ.
A New Process Which Requires no
Water.

As Robinson District is sure at no distant
day to become great gold mining center,
and as this precious metal is found there in
various forms every new invention for sepa
rating the gold from the base metal cannot
fail to interest our miners and prospectors.
The need Of some ready method for the dry
extraction of the gold has long been felt,
but until recently the various machines in
vented have not been found equal to the old
process. According to the Denver mining
ReOi<v the difficulties in the way Of
DRY EXTRACTION OF GOLD
Have apparently been overcome in machine
recently invented. By this process the use
Of mercury is dispensed with, and the gold
is extracted readily from alluvial deposits or
quartz. The process is also applicable to
the extraction Of any combination Of metals
from refractory ore. One Of the machines
exhibited weighed but six pounds, and was
intended to form part Of the outfit Of the
prospector. by the use of which he could
quickly determine whether any specimen of
quartz contained gold by simply crushing it
with hammer and running it throunh the
machine.
THE MECHANISM OF THIS APPARATUS
Consists of an inclined ladder with fine wire
cloth upon one side and silk upon the other.
A blast Of air is passed up and down through
the two meshes, blowing off the light parti.
Giles Of dust, clay and quartz, and allowing
the gold to be retained simply by gravity.
Another machine is adapted for concentrat.
ing various metals from rock, such as SUI
plate of copper, lead. zinc and anthony,
making the future separation of the valuable
metal from the metallic mass, by roasting or
chemical processes an easy matter. During
the exhibit
AN INTERESTING EXPERIMENT
Was made to show the value Of the machines
and the thoroughness with which they per.
form their work. The machine used in the
experiment weighed about 500 pounds, and
was SO compact that it could readily be trans.
ported from one place to another. A guam
THY Of gold in minute particles, weighing
six drachms, and two small nuggets were put
into large pan with swo hundred weight Of
gravel and grit, and the whole mass put into
the machine, which was operated with about
quarter of horse power, or as an equiva.
lent, two man power.
THE PRINCIPLE OF THE MACHINE
Is similar to the small separator used for
prospecting purposes with the blast Of air
driving OF the fine particles Of extraneous
material, whileithe osclating ripples contain.
ing shot shake of the heavier grit and stones,
allowing free gold to sink by gravity into the
shot, where it is retained and in turn falls to
the bottom of shot. In about minute after
the mixture was placed in the machine, the
whole treatment was completed, and Of the
amount Of gold ordinarily put into the ma
chine 90 3 per cent. was recovered. With
more time devoted to the separation, a con-
siderably smaller percentage Of loss would
doubtless have ensued.

sound advice. He was gentle and at

The defeated Confederates have taught
the great lesson that there is rarely a

being az honorable in peace as they were

would keep their paroles. That 1t took
