SCIENCE OF PROSPECTING,

A technical education without practical
experience does not fit a man for wen
such an humble occupation as prospect
ing, says a writer in the Scientific Press.
While a prospector, whose chief reliance
is in his muscle$and not in his technical
education, nflnay. accidentally m
upon a valuable ore deposit, he is out
looking for mines, and as all rocks look
much the same to him it does not concern
him whether he picks up quartz, lime
stone, or a fra g1nent Of some eruptive
rock, for either may contain precious
metals, and his very ignorance of the
character of the rick is his safeguard.
All miners, whether technically educated
or not, are prone to search for mineral
deposits, veins, float, etc, similar to those
they are familiar with. To the Comstock
miner the ideal mine is found in the bo-
nanzas of the Comstock; the Homestake
miner looks for broad zones of quartz
and schist colored red by oxidation; the
Leadville miner is in search of a contact
Of lime and %porphyry; the Californian
wants black slate and greensboro; the
Butte, Montana, miner thinks granite a
formation of mineral; the Arizona pros
pector will camp with a rotten, IRON
stained p~orphyry dyke; the development
Of the Cripple Greek mines has created a
demand for phonolite, and in the Black
Hills of South Dakota the discovery of
gold near Ragged Top has made arrow
head flint" the proper material in which
to seek gold; the miner from Calico, Cali
fornia. is always on the lookout for large
masses Of a-gre breccia, in hope of
finding chloride again; the digger from
South Africa is sa tisfied with a CON
glomerate reef, and recognizes one at
sight; the miners familiar with Silver
Reef, Utah, know that some white sand
stones and drab clay shales contain high
grade silver ores. And SO in endless va
.piafU of fnyp1 NJ noo tIo roinn
from each region looks for the charac-
-teristics with which he is familiar. While
the prospector may locate. anything to
which his notion i~nclines him. he locates
much that is worthless, and doubtless
passes much that is. Valuable, where the
technically educated mining engineer
would probably recognize the worthless
ness or the. value of any particular oc-
currence We're his attention directed
to it.
