THE Casio MILL.


Much had been hoped from the
Casio mill on Winnebago hill, own
ed and operated by Alfred Anderson.
1t i in steady operation on ore from
the Casio. 1t also handles custom ore.
1t was able to double the ore from
the Druid, going two into one. A
Hurn table attachment worked the
shines successfully, saving IA ounces
silver to the ton and "a fine gold.
Without the sinner the values would
have followed the water. The results
from this mill have been SO good that
til. Casto dump will find its way in
to the intricacies of its mechanism.
The successful handling of the dump
meas further improvements in the
way cf an electric driven cable to
haul ,the car from the mine to the
mill. The dump contains low values
but with the quantity and the sue
cessful operation Of the mill, there
will be extra compensation inasmuch
as the ore was almost hopeless case
in so far as treatment by existing
methods was concerned. The system
adopted by this new acquisition to
the milling industry, is to cruch the
ore, passing through McFarlane
gate to an automatic feeder, which
feeds direct to the Denver Quartz
milf, new machine of recent inven-
tion. The machine has six rolls of
900 pounds each which revolve at a
rate of 40 revolutions per minute.
The rolls run in a groove or round
mortar, crushing on three sides. Sur
rounding these rolls is a screen IS
feet in circumference and two feet
high. The mill discharge is eight
feet. The ore being crushed to 40
mesh passes over an SKIS foot cop
per plate, then through two Swain
classifiers and delivered to two
Swain tables and the shines to the
Horn sinner. These sinners seem to
give better satisfaction than any
heretofore introduced in this Sec
ton. The water after it has passed
over the tables, is consigned to three
large settling tanks and is then
pumped back into the mill to be used
over again. By this very little water
is required. The mill will save from
80 to 95 per cent.

CYANlDATION OF
GllPiN ORES.

BY reading the article of cyanida-
tion to be installed as part Of the de-
velopment of the mining industry
Of this section, one will CLEAN the
fact that the parties interested, and
they are all good men and have TAX
en- the subject very much to heart,
that it will not be long ere the en-
terprise shows results surprising to
the uninitiated. Unquestionably the
innovation is needed for the quantity
Of ore hereabouts is something enor-
nous but low grade principally, and
some of quality called refractory.
The new enterprise will not consider
the grade or the refractory nature Of
the ore, It will be Of one homoee-
neous quality and nothing to detract
from the extraction Of the values to
the limit Of their continents. This
proposition is one that should appeal
to the community for its success

the surface. The gentlemen seem to

wise, for they will hardly find else
where such an abundance Of ore.
Then, too, they are Inclined to oper-
ate on cooperative system or a
community Of interest plan. This Is
a sort Of innovation and should prove
attractive to the workers Of proper
ties In this section. The enterprise
certainly holds out superior induce
ments to the mine operators and
with the success Of the enterprise
