The new oil concentrating plant Sn- pcrintendent Hunt is installing will be ready for q trial in 2 few days, says the NOrenci Standard. The plant is being put in place by Mir. Launders. Of London. IL is the first one ot its kind in the United States One other IS in successful use in British Colum- hia. This plant is Of five ton capacity II successful others will be added Their use will rcduce the quantity of tailingS turned into the creek. II is promised that the oil system will save nall or more Of the values the water system now permits loss Of. IL is with the line tailing. that the oil plant is expected to prove particularly efficient. Inc machine is sim olo in cOnstruc- tor and occupies a small amount Of room. The tsilings enter at the top oi the incline plane. passing through several cylinders filled with oil aud water. From each churning in these cylinders the oil passes with values gathered to Il large centrifugal .epa- rator. In this the final work of re- moving the values from the oil is done. The oil then passes back to the feed tank and is run oyer again and again The water passes out before reaching the separator. The principal upon which the machines operate is that gangue will not a>similate with oil. MT. Lsunders is confident that the process will prove entirely successful here and expects to see it in general use in the district.
