DAuSotoiS, ehS PAcPNilS (WHICH Dy Gap
tain J. X. DeLamar, is the most extern
sively developed and largest mine in
Yerington. 1t is opened on three lev
els, all of which are connected with tun-
rels, single body of ore 800 feet long
$50 feet wide and $50 feet deep has been
developed.
There are at least l 500, 900 tons of ore
i'll this body, and possibly 1000, 900 tons,
which will average between "a per
cent and per cent copper, and carry in
addition rs cents per ton in precious
metals.
The bottom of the ore has not been
reached and as the values are fully
maintained i'll the lowest workings. it is
quite possible that another million or so
tons may be added to the amount already
III sight.
There isa bit of history which properly
may be told at this point When the
Bluestone property was offered to Cap
tain DeLamar, he was experimenting
with a magnetic concentration process at
his Bully Hill mine in California. the
property he afterwards sold to General
Electric interest. His engineers report
ed that the Bluestone ore was too low
grade to make an attractive smelling
proposition and that it could not be con-
centrated satisfactorily. Though the
the property was then nearly 100 miles
from railroad, he had consignment
of several tons mined, shipped to Red
ding, CAL, and there teamed 26 miles
farther to the Bully Hill where he SUBJ
mitted it to a series of tests.
When it is remembered that Captain
DeLamar is not a promoter but gentle
man who has been tremendously sue
cessful as an operator of his own mines,
and that it was his own money that he
spent to determine whether Bluestone
ore could be concentrated, one cannot
help admirlng his progressive spirit.
This incident furnishes an illustration
of the fact that when the mining bust
ness is conducted by thorough mining
man who exercises a much care and
forethought, and informs himself as
fully as other successful men do in con-
nection with their respective businesses,
mining becomes just as safe as other
businesses beside being twice as profit
able
Captain DeLamar bought the Blue
stone, expended very large sum on its
development and equipment, and mean
while put his experts at work adjusting
and perfecting the process of magnetic
concentration
The machine which he purchased the
right to operate had All ore conveying,
belt or 10 inches wide and one small
set of magnets. 1t has been developed
by stages until the unit has belt 40
inches with four gigantic sets of mag
nets, capable of handling 20 tons of ore
in "a hours
A supply of electricity has been con-
tracted for, and the wires were strung as
far as the mine early this month This
power will be used for general purposes
about the mine. 10-drill compressor
is being installed. 1t will be run by
electric power. The ore will be trammed
from the mine the same way. All OF
these matters are overshadowed, how
ever, by the interest in the proposed
electric concentration.
AS is quite commonly known, sulphide
ores are not magnetic. When they have
been roasted slightly, however, Just
