Gold From Silver Mines.

When people talk about 'gold
mines and "silver mines distinct
lively they are very prone to forget
that, exclusive of the placers, there
are more mines whose ores cont3in
both gold and silver, and therefore
produce more bullion, than there are
silver mines which yield little or no
gold. Leadville and Aspen are ex-
ceptional cases of producing prac-
tically straight silver-lead ores.
Eureka, Nevada, which was once the
leading silver-lead camp of the
country, has turned out a great deal
of gold. The dry silver ores are gen.
orally higher in gold than the silver
lead ores, and the districts contain
ing them are great gold-producers as
well. The common notion of the
Comstock is that it is merely a silver
lode, yet Of the total production over
40 per cent in value was gold. And
so with the other silver camps, in
greater or degree.
This points worth bearing in mind,
for it shows that whatever hurts
silver mining must at the same time
injuriously affect the gold production.
In this way. and for other reasons,
the two industries are linked together
SO firmly that for the most part they
should be considered as one. e.-Mininq
and Scientific Reriem.
