ably fine, however, and most general
ly assumes flat fiakey form, which,
when occurring, as it usually does, in
sand heavily impregnated with a
heavy muck or alluvial silt, endow-
ing it with predilection to float off,
renders it impossible of saving by any
known process.
High scientific opinion asserts that
the auriferous black sand of Snake
river must first be cleaned of its ad-
herring muck. Thereafter, separation
of the gold and sand would be an easy
matter. On the other hand, equally
high scientific opinion, predicted
upon belief that separating of the
muck and sand is impossible without
causing more Or less of the precious
metal to be lost in the process by
floating off in the muck-urges that
first the black sand, minus the gold,
must be separated from the muck, for
which the gold displays almost as
much affinity as for the sand. There
after by dry process, the gold and
muck could be separated.
Thus the problem stands, and an
/ immense fortune awaits the man with
a solution.

Ton SAVING FLOUR GOLD
FROf SHAKE RIVER SANDS
There's Millions In Il Tor The Nan Who
InVu5 d Process Which viii
Operate Successfully.

The article in last evenings Miner,
chronicling the perfection by an On
tario, Oregon, man of machine to
save Snake river gold, brings to mind
the fact that from Blackfoot falls to
Lewiston the tdrbid old Snake is
strewn with abandoned dredgers, not
one of which has proven profitable,
and many of which cost from $50, 600
to $50, 600 each, says the Sumpter
Miner. Every conceivable system
for separating the flour and flake gold
from the muck mixed with black sand
on Snake river bars have been tried
at much cost and found wanting.
The nearest approach to success has
occurred in the case of General Weav-
er, once national populist leader,
who is operating dredge near the
confluence of the Payette and Snake.
This machine aims directly at ANAL
gamation, without resource to inter
mediate process involving concentra-
tion of the auriferous black sand.
The pay dirt is thoroughly mixed
with water and is sprayed an endless
number of times upon copper plate
coated with quicksilver. 1t is esti.
mated that each particle of sand con-
tanning the infinitesimal PARTICLES of
gold is forced into contact with the
amalgam plate one thousand times.
While the saving in this process is
high in percentage, the machines
capacity is obviously limited.
