urAH.s MINERAL PRODUCTION.
An Increase in Cold and silver Over
the Year 1894.


the Year 1894.
Notwithstanding the depression in
mining throughout the year 1895 the
output of the precious metals for the
year was considerably in excess over
that of the year before, and as this,
from all indications. is to be a mining
year, it is believed that the production
or gold and silver this year will be
greater than ever before.
The Inter-Mountain Mining Review,
under the date of March u. 1895, con-
tains an interesting report regarding
the mineral output of Utah for the
year 1895 as follows:
Mr.. A Hanauer, jr., special agent
of the mint bureau for Utah. has just
forwarded to Director Preston his
statement of the gold and silver pro-
duction for 1895. All returns hereto
fore published have been based upon
estimates for the month of December
and were necessarily inaccurate, and
as the full and complete figures of the
mint bureau change these preliminary
estimate s, they are of interest and i'm
portance.
Utah's production of the precious
metals for the year 1885 was 1880
ounces of gold. of a value of 81. 546, 679,
and S,141, 1888 ounces silver, of a. coin
age value of so, 525, 1874. total of $12,-
072.673. The commercial value of the
silver was S5,316, 323. In his statement
Mr.. Hanauer says:
Compared with the preceding year
this is a gain of 2O250 ounces gold and
1607, POI ounces silver, and in value a
gain of 81, 4S6, $50.
The silver output may be considered
as normal. being about the average of
recent years, higher than those imme-
diately preceding it. but not equal to
the production of 1890 and 1891, while
the gold yield shows a large increase
over the year before and was the
highest on record. The advance in the
gold production in recent years has
been regular and steady, and single
mines now produce more than the en-
tire state was credited with but a few
years ago.
THE output or both gold and silver
comes almost wholly from old and well
known mines, no new producing mines
or districts of Importance being in evil
dence. Prospecting is active and wide
spread. notably in the vicinity of Mer-
cur-the Camp Floyd distriot-which
promises to largely increase its yield
of gold during the coming year"
An important fact disclosed by this
report is that the silver output of the
Tintic district exceeded that of Sum
NIT county, and Park City surrenders
to Eureka the position she has so long
occupied as the greatest silver pro-
Queer. 1t is also worthy of note that
the Bullion-Beck mine produced more
silver in 1895 than the Ontario.
The following table, prepared by Mr.
Hanauer, gives the gold and silver pro-
duction of counties:

This property is owned principally
by T. A. Valley. but at the time of the
discovery it was being worked on a
lease by J. W. Moffatt, through whose
energy and perseverance the credit OF
the find belongs.
This mine is being worked with a
horse within, and as the owners are
putting in ore bins it is expected that
regular shipments viii begin at an
early day.
The Yankee Girl has the reputation
of having once been a heavy producer,
but the ore. which was taken from
near the surface, carried gold, instead
of silver and lead; but this was all
worked out. and now, at a greater
depth, body of high grade galena ore
has taken its place. In years gone by
the Yankee Girl was known as the
Lucky mine, and old-timers Will We'll
