PRODUCTION SMALL
United States Lacking in This Pre- cious Metal-Depends Principally on Imports-Price Advances Great ly, According to United States Geo. logical Survey.

The entire output of crude platinum in the United States is recovered from placer mines in Oregon and California, which also produce gold.
 In 1910, according to Waldemar Lindgren, of the United States Geo. 390 troy ounces of platinum, valued at 8 507, against 673 troy ounces in 1909, valued, at $I2S02. This decrease in value obviously does not represent the actual decrease, as the average pric. paid in 1910 was $24.3S an ounce, com pared with $19 an ounce in 1909.
 California's production in 1910 amounted to 33S troy ounces of crude platinum, valued at 3S,386. Of this total BOA ounces was recovered as by-product In dredging operations in Butte, Tuba, and Sacramento counties, put comes from beach sands near Port Orford and near Bullards. The Quan- tity recovered In 1910 was only 5 troy ounce.. valued at S1, ,1N.
 It is calculated that the domestic output of the crude metal from placer. in 1910 is equivalent to 273 fine ounces of refined platinum.
 The United States Mint obtains an- nually from its refinery operations q considerable quantity of platinum, the largest part of which is derived from scrap platinum and from sweepings
 
 ists. A small percentage of primar, metal is. however, obtained in ref1n
 ing gold bullion received at the min from placer and lode mines. Privat
 refneries also separate platinum fror
 gold bullion. The best estimate tha
 output is derived from domestif
 sources, says Mr. Lindgren, woulf
 probably be about 800 fine ounces
 which added to the refined platinum equivalent of the crude metal from do
 mestic placers would give 773 ounce as the probable output of refinef platinum from domestic ores in 1910. Large Appropriations. A considerable quantity of refine platinum. estimated to be 4S00 ounces ! valued at $156,960. is produced fror imported crude platinum the larges part of which comes from Colombi and Russia. The total output of re 1 both domestic and foreign origin, was about 5,573 fine ounces, valued a; l s18', ,237.
 During the last few years larg l demand for platinum has develope | in the jewellers trade. especially fo' mounting precious stones but also fc | chains and other articles. This de | mand accounts to a great extent fc' l the phenomenal rise in the price of tn | metal when the scarcity of the suppl | and the failure to discover new source' Approximation are considered. Plati | mum is also in strong demand for man. l industrial and chemical purposes. Mir Lindgren's report which form | an advance chapter from Mineral Re ! sources for 1910 and which also de
 scribes the production and uses c | iridium. osmium, palladium rhodiun' l and ruthenium, may be obtained or i application to the Director of thu 1 United States Geological Survey | Washington, D. C.
