EXTRACTS RAoiuM FROM ORES

OF interest to the mining fratern-
ity locally will be the announcement
that Prof. Lakin. head of the scien-
t fic department o. the Greeley High
school. after six years Of experiment
Ing, has discovered a method Of
treating pitchblende. This rare met
al is found in two or three mines in
Gilpin county, but in few other min
eral sections.
A Greeley correspondent in report
ing the results of Prof. Lakin's ex-
periments to the Denver Republican
says that during the past eight
years the professor has spent his
summers at assay work in the noun
tains. and having an opportunity to
secure pitchblende. began his exper-
iments. He became fascinated, de.
termined to treat the ore for rad
ium and did SO, gathering almost in
finitesimal PARTICLES at a time. Sew.
eral months ago he sent the results

who returned the compound, proper.
ly mounted, several days ago.
Although the radium obtained is
far less than a pin head in size, it
is a perfect specimen. The alpha
rays which 1t gives out. like X--rays.
affected the eyes OF Prof. Lakin by
their energy. The precious bit is
mounted for microscopic study ard
experiments will be made with 1t.
The ore from which the radium was
extracted was obtained from mines
in western and southwestern Color
ado. Mr.. Lakin will return to the
same field to work the coming sum-
mer, hoping to obtain larger quanti-
ties Of radium, which he is anxious
to secure not only for its intrinsic
and scientific value. but for its med.
icinal properties In treatment Of cer-
tain diseases.

OLD TOWN SHIPMENTS.

Williams & Simpson, leasing on the
sixth level east of the Old Town
mine, had down a car lot of unusual
ly fine ore the first of the week. The
settlement certificate showed the
values to be 4.S3 OF. gold; 7.10 OF.
silver and per cent copper, total
of about 500 per ton. Pike & Co.,
maintain about 100 tons per month
output from their lease, the average
value being about $50 per ton.
Through the operations of leasers
and the extension of development in
to new territory, the Old Town is
getting back in good form for produc-
tion and the output next year will be
much heavier than during the last
Idaho Springs Gazette.

1T MUST COME TO THIS.

1t will have to be generally admit
ted that the mining business is al
the mercy of the smelter trust. In
the days of the Independent smelter
these were glad to accept all the ores
| offered, knowing that the more they
treated the greater the income. These
could always readily dispose of met
ais produced AMI where the treat
ment was successful the profits
were large. There was no thought OF
cornering the ore or the metals re-
sulting. But things are somewhat
changed. The independents are pretty
well eliminated and there remains one
huge gigantic conc ern that does not
seem to care to seek for desirable
ore and that which is offered is com-
PEELED to pay pretty much all the ore
contains to get at the mineral con-
tents.
1t has a monopoly of the ore treat
ment business and possibly If it dar-
ed would boost metal prices to
heights never before attained. To
keep the metals at firm rates will
prevent the starting of other sme.t-
ers. To boost the price of the met
ais would mean greater competition
for the ore and more sme ters would
be started. 1t has been a well map
ped out plan. 1t is just possible the
trust seeks to secure good properties
and thus retain all the profits. When
it does this 1t has no call for ore
from individual mines and those who
offer it any find they cannot work
their property because of the high
charges exacted for ore treatment.
The mining business looks dubious
in SO far as the smelter trust oper-
ates against 1t in the way 1t has. A
remedy would suggest itself in that
a mining district operates its own
reduction plant. Let all the big pre-
ducing mines build their own smelt-
er. That is. permit as many mines to
come in as care to join the pool Err
ect this mill in the most convenient
place and adjacent to the mines in
order to eliminate all or as much as
possible of the charge for transpor-
tation. Such an undertaking would
rejuvenate every mining district in
the state and knock the trust higher
than a kite.

HELPFUL HINTS.

There seems to be a disposition in
some quarters to belittle the worth
of the Newhouse tunnel. How just
this is must be answered by those
who feel thy emay not be receiving
the benefits hoped by it's completion.
From the Observers point of view
the enterprise should work most ad-
vantageously to all properties along
its course. 1t was suggested in pre-
vious article in this paper, that all
benefited pool their interests that
tthe tunnel be made to do an meal
ulable amount of work in the way it
was intended.
Possibly the real intent of the tun-
mel has not yet been worked out. 1t
could hardly have been completed to
benefit single enterprise, like the
Gunnel, which is being worked
through the tunnel, the ore taken to
the portal and reshipped to Black
Hawk for treatment. II the Gunnel
can do that and show a profit, it
must be a very valuable property.
Much was hoped by the completion
of the wonderful undertaking. 1t is
too early to see the big results, not
enough properties have made con to
show the enterprise in its best light.
In time, with dozens of mines ship
ping ore through 1t will disclose the
stupendous benefit to be derived by
a, tEn hot o1
the interests along it's course should
get together. There can be no doubt
as to results. With all working in har
mony the tunnel should be taxed to
the full.
In another article, coupled with
the aid of this enterprise. the sug-
gestion is made that an Independent
smelter be erected. All the properties
working through the tunnel might go
into this. Erect such plant at
either end and II the results do not
surprise those entering such an un-
dertaking it will be because 1t was
not properly carried out.
The tunnel and smelter in combin-
alton would prove a profitable in
vestment. so long as 1t stands out
against the opportunities of the
smelter trust.
A good system OF concentration in
connection, the combination should
prove one of the best mining under
takings in the world. There is no
question of the mines being able to
furnish the ore up to thousands of
tons a day. necessitating one Of the
largest smelters in the country. This
shculd be taken seriously by all in
terested.

FRoNTENAc MILL
NEARING COMPLETION.

| An immense crusher, weighing 37,-
the fore part Of the week, for the
Frontenac mill. The big machine was
, transferred to the grounds and was
set on the foundations today. The
crusher is Of McFarlane's own de-
sign and was cast at the Gray Iron
works in Denver
The mill is now nearing completion
rapidly. Practically all of the equip
ment has been installed and by the
first Of the year the machinery will
be in readiness for a try-out. Tram
connection from the mill to the From
nae and Aduddell mines has been
made. The ore will be loaded auto
matically. Belt conveyers will be run
from the receiving bins to the cars
and as the product is conveyed, the
smelling ore will be separated from
the mill dirt.
A vast amount of development
work has been done in the Frontenac
and Aduddell properties during the
past year. Drifting has been carried
on in the Frontenac to the extent
of from 1850 to 1850 feet month and
thousands of tons OF ore are broken
in the slopes. Development in the
Frontenac has been carried on in the
4th. 5th, 9Th and 7th levels east and
west, and in the 3rd, 4th and 5th east
and west in the Aduddell.
The Aduddell shaft is being sunk
to connect with a raise from the
Newhouse tunnel and good progress
has been made both in sinking the
shaft and extending the upraise. The
shaft has been put down at rate
of three feet day and five feet has
been the average in the upraise. It
is expected that connection will be
made by April.
