Gold miners in Hastings county.
Canada, for years sought for some
means to rid the ore of the arsenic
deposit which in that region is found
in combination with the gold. They
offered rewards. tried numberless ex.
periments. and did everything they
could to get rid of the poisonous, trou-
blesome stuff that lay between them
and their precious gold. But now a
wonderful transformation has taken
place. Instead of separating the gold
from the arsenic, the miners are work
Ing to get the arsenic away from the
gold. 1t is much the same thing, but
different. The difference is that the
arsenic and not. the gold is what the
miners are after; they do not throw
away the gold, but the arsenic is the
prize.
The miners were still swearing
vainly at the arsenical deposits that
buried their gold from them when a
party of scientists came over from
England. They asked the miners how
much gold ton they took out of their
rough ore. The miners replied that
the ore ran all the way from 81 to $50
worth of gold. They said the trouble
was that it had SO much arsenical
pyrites in It. The scientists investi
gated and informed the miners that
the arsenic in one ton of their ore
was worth something like 800. Then

Arsenic Worth More Than Gold.
Poisonous Mineral Yields Much More Handsome Profit Per
Ton Than the Precious Mctal-Wss Once Thought to
Be Valueless and Nuisance TO Miners

the miners quit swearing at the ar.
senic.
This strange turn of the wheel OF
fortune has been caused by the virtual
exhaustion of the former chief source
of supply of arsenic in Germany and
quality and purity of the Canadian
product.
The companies in the Hastings
county gold fields have successfully
introduced the bromo-cyanogen process
in treating the previously refractory
mispickel, as the ore In which arsenic
is contained is called and are now
turning out eighty tons of arsenic a
month The arsenic can be placed on
the cars at Marmora, in Hastings
county, at cost Of 500 ton; it sells
at $40 and frequently as high as 500
a ton. This arsenical ore also car
ries froni 81 to $50 worth of gold in
each ton, which is a handsome profit
in itself.
Arsenic Is n metallic substance, eX'
tremely brittle, of steel gray shade
and is one of the most poisonous OF
substances. II is used for mixing with
lead in the manufacture of shot and
is also added to iron and steel in the
manufacture of chains and ornaments
