PHOSPHATE ROCK
PROVES VALUABLE
Deposits of 0olitic Structure Are
Found to Be Useful as
Fertilizer
U. S. PUBLISHES A PAMPHLET
Rich Fields Found on Government
Land in Idaho, Wyoming
and Utah
U. S. PUBLISHES A PAMPHLET
Especial to The Herald)

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-The avail
ability of even low grade phosphate
rock for use as fertilizer gives i'm
portance to the enormous phosphate
deposits in Idaho, Wyoming and Utah.
many of which are on government land.
The total area of public phosphate
lands now withheld from entry is more
than 100000 acres.
Portions of the lands thus with
drawn were examined in 1909 by geol-
ogists of the United States geological
survey, whose reports have just been
published as an advance chapter of
the surveys bulletin 430, numbered
bulletin 430-H. This chapter includes
two reports, one on deposits in south
eastern Idaho and adjacent parts of
wyoming and Utah, by II. S. Gale
and r. w. Richards, the other on de-
posits near Ogden, Utah, by Eliot
Blackwelder.
The reports discuss the geologic age
and relations of the deposits, their
origin and the chemical composition
of the rock and are illustrated by
maps and geologic sections. The de-
posits are described and mapped in
detail and estimates are given of the
available phosphate in the several
areas considered.
The phosphate rock is chiefly of
oolitic structure-that is, it consists
of masses of round grains closely
eemented together with other material,
generally calcite. These grains differ
greatly in size in each mass of rock,
ranging from microscopic pellets to
pebble-like bodies half an inch in di-
ameter Chips of shells and small
fragments of plants are in places in
cluded in the rock.
ROCK COLORS DIFFER
The rock at different places differs
in color, ranging from gray to jet
black, the darker shades being prob
ably due to the presence of bitumin-
Gus matter.
The areas examined contain more
than 267, 100000 tons of high grade
phosphate rock, very little of which
has yet been mined, and 1t is probable
that the deposits extend far beyond
the areas examined, forming, perhaps,
the largest phosphate field in the
world.
All public lands supposed to contain
valuable phosphate deposits are now
withdrawn from entry, but it Is under
stood that the Withdrawals are only
temporary and are intended to enable
the geological survey to determine ex-
actly the character of the lands, to
prevent further entanglements of en-
try and to preserve the present status
of the lands until action is taken by
congress. The pamphlet just published
sets forth the need of revising the
mining laws to enable their just appli-
cation to claims on phosphate lands.
Bulletin 430-H may be obtained with~
out charge by applying to the director
of the geological survey at Washing
ton.

GOLDFIELD CON. DOES
BIC MONTHS BUSINESS
Development and Construction
Progresses RapidIy-Mine
Is in Prime Condition

The report of General Manager ].
r. Finlay of the Goldfeld Consolidated
mines for August shows another
splendid months record at mine and
mill, the production being 24,170 tons Of
ore having a gross value of $SS9,96S
The gross yield was $S31,515 and the
net profit above all operating ex-
value a ton was $36.S2; percentage ex-
tracted, 93.43; total costs and losses,
$266,553; percentage of profit, 70.O5
For the first time since March the
mine produced approximately full ton
mage. The total advance in explora-
tion work was 1927 feet, and develop
ments throughout the property were
of a very satisfactory nature.
The showing of the Combination was
particularly good, resulting in the
opening of the Hampton ore body at
the bottom level of that mine, says
Mr.. Finley in his report. A stope is
being opened there that promises to
be a good one.
At the Mohawk mine the develop
ments continue with fair success be-
tween the Mohawk proper and the
Red Top. One stope, particularly on
the 330-foot level near the Mohawk
shaft, has been very promising. On
the main level the ore was barely
pay, but as soon as we began work.
Ing upWdTu On IL d great improvement
took place. 1t is fair to say that the
ore bodies in this particular tract are
irregular, and 1t is difficult to know
just what Importance to attach to
them. However, it is certain that
large amounts of ore will be mined
from bodies that have been partially
opened up during the past three
months
At the Laguna shaft small ore
body of rather low grade has been
encountered. The level now being
opened in this mine is 230 feet YER
tically below the bottom level of the
Red Top so that any ore opened will
indicate a considerable tonnage.
At the Clermont no ore of conse-
quence was discovered during the
month Some promising showings
have been encountered recently, but
it is too early to report on them def
initely
Construction work is progressing
satisfactorily at both mine and mill.
The entire plant is in good condition.
The completion Of work now on hand
will, in the course of two months,
substitute some economies for the ex-
pense of construction.
