PRODUCTION OF LITHIuM.

The principal use of nthia ores is for
the manufacture of the carbonate OF
ithium, which is utilized in the solid
form and in solution for medicinal
purposes. especially for the manufac-
ture Of so-called 'lithia waters" Lith-
ium Falts are used also to a small ex-
tent in the manufacture of compounds
for the production of colored fire. The
metal tinges a flame with a beautiful
shade OF red.
A mistaken impression prevailed in
this country for several years that
there was large demand for lithium
minerals. The result was overproduc-
ton. In 1905. however, sharp re-
trenchment occurred, and the Droduc-
ton fell to practically nothing. AS
reported by Mr.. e. o. Hovey, special
agent of the United States geological
survey, it amounted to only 21 short
tons, valued at 1852. All OF it came
from san Diego county, Cal. In 1904
the output OF ilthium minerals in the
United States had amounted to 577
short tons, valued at $5.l55; in 1903 to
l.155 short tons. valued at s23.4 .425.

There were no imports of lithium salts
into, the United States during 1905.
The mines of Pennington county, s..
d.. which formerly produced the great
er. part OF the lithium ore consumed in
the United States, were entirely idle
during 1905. It is not likely that work
on them will be resumed before the
stocks of ore now on hand have been
considerably depleted.
Practically the only minerals which
have been mined as ores OF lithium
have been amblygonite. lepidolite, and
spodumene. Amblygonite has been
found in commercial quantities only
near Pala, San Diego county, Cal
This region is also the only one In the
country where lepidolite, or lithia mica
is produced in commercial quantities
The spodumene mines are located IN
