The Mining and Scientific Press says:
Aug. l, 1898. lake copper was quoted at
liz cents per pound. Aug. |, 1899, ii was
quoted at 1872 cents a pound, an increase
of cents. That this means a large in
crease in revenue to copper mining COM
panes everywhere, without material in
crease of cost. is evident. Under the
stimulus of high price for the metal it
would naturally be supposed that the
production of the largest mines would be
greatly increased. but such, strange to
say, is not the case. In some instances
there has been a notable increase in out
put, but in others, where it was expect
ed, it did not materalize. a great min
ing enterprise is usually run at or near
its full capacity, and to increase it at
short notice is not possible. 1t involves
not only the opening up of more terri
tory in order to obtain increased output
of ore. but it necesSitates often an in
crease of hosting capacity, and possibly
the sinking of new shaft. but even We're
it possible to increase the output of ore
the metallurgical department would in
most cases be unable to take care of it..
This is particularly the case where
stamping and concentration are neces-
sary. Large concentrating mills and re-
ductiOn works, such as are employed in
the treatment of copper ores. cannot be
built at short notice. Mines which ship
to custom smeters can largely increase
their output by increasing their ship
ments, but not so with large mines which
have reduction plants of their own. In
some of the largest copper producers the
companies have not received the full ben
eft of the highest prices, as they We're
sold several months ahead at the lower
figures. The outlook for the coming
months, and particularly for 1900 is that
the copper production will be largely
augmented by the additions now being
made to the large mines and reduction
works, and the springing up of new en-
terprises which will help to swell the
total production.
