TIN NOT EASY TO FIND.
IT Is the Most Sparingly Distributed
Of All the Metals.

RI. Skertchley. a prominent Australian
geologist In an interesting monograph mas
again directed attention to the fact that
tin is the most sparingly distributed OF
all the metals in common use. While all
the known gold fields CT the world cover
more than 10000 square miles. the tin
fields have an area of less than II. 500
square miles. Thus for every square mile
OF tin ground there are 1872 square miles
OF gold-bea-ing country. There are seven
tin districts in. Europe. producing about
$3.50 tons yearly. OF which the Cornish
mines yield about 5000 tons.
Asia has two rim areas-Hunan. in China,
estimated by some of the best authorities
10 produce 10 n1 10 70. 900 tons 81 year. but
49, tons, and the Straits Settlements and
adjacent pr.ncipalities, yielding 5000 tons
yearly. the richest yield In the world.
Africa has no known tin mine. North
America only one tin area, Bolivia and
Peru. yielding less than 400 tons year;
Australasia, the youngest. contributes
about 200 tons a year.
Tracing back the names 81 tin In seventy
languages, Mr.. Skertchley found that. with
a few unexplained exceptions. all the
names OF tin were of Asist!c origin, many
going back 70 the AkKads, before the time
OF Abraham.
These Akkads, who nave left whole IL
braries written on tiles. seem 10 have

POINTERS FOR THE rROsPEcTOR
Little Things That Every seeker for
Mines ShOuld Know.

Mines should Know.
The success of the prospector depends
upon a close application to his calling,
economy in living, and careful study or
the minerals and the country formation.
Science is no. essential to the successful
prospector. but he ought TO be able 10 de-
termine the nature OF the more common
ores in order to work intelligently Those
that should be studied to some degree are
gold silver lead. iron and copper. Each
of these when scratched with a knife or
other instrument viii expose streak OF
bright metal. and to determine the char
acter of the ore II not the value. Is OF much
importance 10 the prospector. However.
many men, wholly uniformed. have met
with success.
Geology is better learned In field work
than from books IL the prospector Is OBJ
serving and Analyses the different rocks
which he may discover. To do this a few
chemicals or acids are needed. the use OF
which he may learn in one day with the
aid of a proper instructor.
Every man knows granite from porphyry
or lime from quartz. Feidspar is nearly
like quartz, and may be determined from
quartz by a smooth surface when taken
from vein. Tale is soft. slippery rock.
something like mica. or more like packed
clay.
Calcite, subject to an acid test, will dis
solve or effervesce and Is an element OF
lime.
Dolcmite, or carbonate Of lime and mag
nesia. resembles calcite. Ii Is a character
OF limestone.
Gypsum is a sulphate Of lime and Is dif
ficult TO determine, from its hardness. 1t
ii will not scratch copper.
Garnets are usually found near copper;
they are OF reddish color and rather
tend to be In cubes In the rock.
