The kentucky FIuor Spar Co.

Last Friday an expert mill man
from Joplin arrived to figure on
additional machinery for the Ken.
lucky Fluor Spar Company. Ev-
er since their inception all Of our
fluoi spar companies have Deepen
ded upon hand sorting in grading
the various qualities Of Huor spar.
The hydro fuoric acid manufac-
turers and the glass factories re-
quire practically chemically pure
product, ground as fine as buhr
stones will make il, and then bolt
ed similarly to our best grades OF
-four. Indeed many OF both the
iron and copper blast or water jac-
ket smelling furnaces use this
finely ground fluor spar, blowing
it through the tuyers into the melt
ing zone of the furnaces whenever
very refractory or highly silioious
ores are used.

A New Departure,

The greatly increased demand
for this high grade Of spar has me-
cessitated looking about for some
means of mechanical separation al
once rapid and at the same time
not too expensive. An expert
ment was made to determine the
specific gravity of the huor spar
and its accompanied oaloite gan
que by first weighing a piece OF
each upon the delioately adjusted
pair of balances in the ordinary
way, and afterwards weighing the
same pieces immersed in water,
and in that way figuring out the
specific gravity of both, The diff
ference was great enough to war
rant the use of an improved jig for
eliminating all foreign substances,
such as oalc spar, limerick or
sandstone.

WHAT is DOING IN THE MINERAL WORLD.

The week ending today has been
one of moro than ordinary inter
est 10 the District. The Colum-
bia mines people have awakened
from their state of innocuous des-
uetude, as President Cleveland
used 10 put it. and have taken
measures TO establish a mill OF
from 10 to 100 tons daily capacity
The Kentucky Fluor Spar Com
pany will also erect a 80 ton mill
for the more perfect cleaning of
their product and also TO place the
large percentage Of galeaa with
which our huor spar is associated

this work is given below.
Al the Columbis.
A pleasant drive OF five miles
brought Mr.. G.. III, Elmore, a prac-
tical milling machinery contractor
and builder OF Joplin. Mo-, TO the
Columbia shaft. He was accom-
panied by J. s. Wright, represen-
ting the Western Kentucky Min
ing Company, of Louisville. Sew
eral hours were devoted to inves-
,tigating the condition of the ma.
,chinery in use many years ago.

What 100 Tons Means.

The breaking down in the drifts
land shaft of 100 tons of material,
hosting it to the surface and brea-
king and crushing it to pass thro-
ugh 30 mesh screen, is work of
considerable magnitude. OF course
such an output means the employ
ment of three shifts of workmen
|of eight hours each. The devel-
|opment of tho mine is great
enough for at least % men on a
shift, and is also ample for hun
'dred tons production every "a
hours. 1t is we'll to figure at the
start the possible ratio of profit in
handling such large tonnage of
|mebgial. 1t has never yet been
satisk orily demonstrated what
percentage of zinc or lead this
vein will average.
Counting the Cost
Assuming that day in and day
but it would require one man to
produce one ton of ore, including
its hosting and milling, and that
khe ore will average one tenth or
ZEN per cent of jack, in that case

Saving the Lead.

this district has more or less of
galens, both shot and kidney shape
In combination with it. This ore
Of lead, when found in huor spar,
has neoessitated it being sold as
hux to the iron and steel produ.
GERS, who use II in large quantities
the lead being positive detriment
I TO both acid and glass works, but
does no special harm TO huxing;
the lead volitailizing and passing
of in heavy dark fumes from eth
or the open hearth or blast furna-
ces. As soon as the fifty ton ca
pacity jig is completed the galena
will be separated completely from
the Auor spar, and valuable new
source OF revenue added to the
company's assets.
How u 10 Done.
Gallo spar, limestone or galena
in combination with huor spar is
generally mined in large Jumps,
the gravel spar, 30 called, being
singulsrly free from detrimental
substances. The operation of first
crushing in the ordinary rock
breaker, afterwards passing thro-
ugh cornish rolls that are set rea-
sonably close TO each other causes
a perfect cleveage to be made of
the foreign substances from the
fiuor spar. In this condition the
material is fed into a compartment
jig which is agitated by power,
water being constantly passing
over and about il. the act Of juggling
or agitation causes the heavier ma
terial to settle at the bottom, the
caloite, sandstone, etc., coming to
the top and being taken off, leav-
ing the cleaned fuor spar next,
the galena being at the bottom OF
the compartment. AS there is
but about five per cent. of foreign
substance in this Auor spar much
larger capacity is required. This
process also frees the fluor spar
from any clay or dirt and renders
1t in perfect shape for grinding.
The work on this 80 ton per day
mill will be commenced at once,
and on its completion the Kentuc-
ky Fluor Spar Company will be in
better shape for taking care of its
large volume of business than ev-
or before in its history.
A 200 Ton Lump.
The carbonate of Zinc mine,
which is said to have been first dis
covered by Brother Montgomery's
rabbit, has again surprised its ow-
ners and the mining people gener-
ally by showing up in an entirely
unexpeoter quarter another superb
vein OF zinc carbonate. Mr.. j. III.

property the other day in compa-
ny with Mr.. Wright of Louisville,

istics of ore bodies. could not re-
member adjeotives sufficiently
strong to fit the case. Mr.. Elmore,
when he.had recovered his breath,
at the sight of a solid mass of car
Donate from which the surface
earth had been stripped, and the
sides laid bare, said that he would
not have missed such sight for
worlds. why" said he, "that
solid boulder of carbonate will
weigh at least 200 tons; yes, it will
weigh more than that 1 never
have observed anything like it in
mining. It's stupendous." The
Crittenden press. [volume] (Marion, Ky.) 1879-1907, 1902-03-20

That the rabbit must have been
inspired when it led the little boy
to the carbonate outcroppings at
the sink hole admits Of no ar
gument. No ordinary, no account
animal would have taken that trou
BILE; and yet that only told half
the story. Below the carbonate,
at water level, or slightly deeper,
very solid jack or zinc sulphides
make their appearance. The car
Donate and the jack are in places
combined with each other, which
will necessitate either hand dres-
sing or juggling to separate one
from the other. This combina-
ton will probably extend 8 to 10
feet in depth, when the sulphides
will entirely predominant, and
purely jack mine will be the re-
suit. The owners of this proper
ty naturally welcome the appear
ance of Jack as it increases the
value of the output nearly one
hundred per cent, carbonates
bringing SIG per ton and sulphides
$3l,50, and much of the latter
will be in such pure state that
dressing will not be required. Ma
ny inquiries are received as to the
per centage of metallic zinc the
carbonates contain. In large
lots, sampled in the usual way of
ore buyers, 43 TO 46 per cent. is
the ordinary average. A charac-
teristic of the vein is a native
white oxide Of zinc, which Of
course exceeds the percentage
named veey materially.
And There Are Others.
The Old Jim vein, or rather its
characteristic formation, is met
with at intervals throughout parts
of Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas,
the Indian Territory and Tennes-
see through to Virginia, where
copper ores take the place of zinc,
A glance at the map of the United
States will show a narrow ribbon
of territory running from east to
west. covering portions of the
States named, in which zinc is
found. So far the other openings
of zinc carbonate in this district
are confined to a strip of country
in the vicinity of Deer Greek.
Very large boulders of carbonate
are the rule, and the yield of OK
ide at the furnaces is most salts
factory from these two mines.
OF course prospecting will be
commenced vigorously now that
the weather is suitable for out of
door work and many huge finds
may be expected this season.

A Question Of Separation.
Much has been said and writ
ten regarding the freeing Of the
huor spar from the caloite and the
zinc and lead sulphides. II 10 Of
course understood that minerals
vary in their specific gravity, that
is to say, calcite or Gallo spar will
have specific gravity Of $50, fiuor
spar OF $50; this gives a differ.
ence of one point, a sufficient mar
gin for the rapid separation Of
these two minerals. Galena, with
specific gravity Of several points
greater than fluor spar, Is also cas-
lily handled, the difference in the
specific gravity of zinc sulphide,
or as commonly termed lack, and
its gangue of huor spar, is DO small
that up to the present time no me-
chanical process has proven at all
satisfactory. What Mr.. Elmore
may succeed in doing is as ye. in
the future.
