Lode-Stone in Bonanza Basin

Not long ago, in cleaning up the wells and sluice. boxes on the Allis-Chalmers gold dredge, owned and operated by the Bonanza Basin Gold Dredging Co.,, in Bonanza basin, a perfect specimen of magnetic iron ore or lode stone was found.
 Though worn to rounded pebble lx16x2I inches, the. speciman retained so strong a polarity that the accom- panying black sand was held attracted to it and picked up in great black ropes thus first attracting attention to the curious substance.
 Masses of iron ore in state of mag netic polarity constitute what are known as "Iode-stones" or native mag nets They occur iu extensive beds and are met with in granite, gneiss, mi ca, schist, clay, slate, syenite, horn blende and chlorite schist.
 The lode stone was well known to the ancient Greeks. Pliny, the early Greciau writer and traveller, called it 'magnes," from the name of the coun- try Magnesia, a province of ancient Lydia, where it was found. Its disCOv- cry gave to science the terms magnet" and "magnetism." The first compasses were maguetized by contact with lode stones. By mere touch to a steel ob- ject, strong magnetism is imparted seemingly without any loss of energy in the stone itself. The existence of this curious mineral, doubted by many philosophers of old, gave rise to many a story of romance and adventure. In ancient times kings were proud to own small specimens such as that found in the sIuice- boxes and taken from the Klondike river.
 There is today no monetary value at tached to magnetic iron ore. Steel is readily magnetized Sy currents of eiec- tricity for use in navigation and for scientific instruments. The black mag netic rock has one wonderful property: 1t continues forever to exert it's force without losing any of its own snergy.- Mining Reporter
