KNIGHT MILL PLANS
NEARING COMPLETION
Company Should Be Ready to
Call for Bids Within
One Week.

W. Lester Mangum, director and Sec
retary OF the various Knight compa =
MES. stated on Wednesday that the engi-
neers IN charge OF the mill which the
Knight interests will erect in Tintic for
the purpose OF treating the low-grade
ores OF the district have the details OF
the same we'll in hand. II is anticipated
that the whole matter Will be sufficiently
advanced within n week to allow specl-
iications 20 be completed and bids called
FOR on the various contracts involved In
this important work.
The niil aS designed will have a daily
capacity OF 100 tons of ore, for IL is more
OF an experimental enterprise than 9TH
erWise. Should the plant prove equal to
all expectations. contracts Will he let I'M
med!aJely for enlarging the plant To 500
tons or ore daily capacity And those
behind the movement anticipate the high
est degree OF efficiency in the 100 ton
mill.
For the time being. therefore, the varl-
Gus Knight companies will be given a
limited market for their low grade ores,
and the plant VIII lc a custom plant 10
that extent. but with the enlarged ca
pacity the mill can handle much ore
from many or the properties of Tintic.
II Is figured by the Knight interests that
there is an enormous tonnage OF low
grade ore in Tint!c that can be handled
at a very good profit Tor both the Gus
toner and the milling company. so that
even a 5o0-toD plant will have its hands
iull for an indefinite period.

DECLINE IN

Hayden. Stone & Co. compares twenty
six copper-producing companies today
with what they were last October mar
ketwise and Ii is >seen that the stocks

loss was in the case of Anaconda, from

Ing from 5000 TO $50, or s25. 900. 900.
The firm above mentioned then says:
''Since October the price OF copper has
dropped about 3 cents a pound, and in
asmuch as the 1912 production for the
United States amounted to 1881 900. 900
pounds, the marking down In the value
of the output has been only H7,430. 600

"The loss In income Is II per cent on

portion, but it must be remembered that
these copper stocks never at all reflected

so that, unless the price OF the metal

general run OF copper stocks would seem
TO be not unattractive at this level"

Basis of Settlement.

The local zinc orc producers arrive at
their settlements on the basis of the
weekly sale averages shown by the
Engineering and Mining journal The
average for the week ending February
10 was a shade above six cents pound,
while the quotations throughout that
week were materially higher Is shown
By other Journals. the Chicago Mining
and Engineering World, for example. The
Engineering and Mining Journal strikes
as fair an average as possible on actual
purchases of spelter by the consumer
without regard to deliveries. and this is
urged In explanation OF the fact that
its average Is lower than many had an
ticipated in view OF the higher daily
quotations carried by the Associated
Press.
1t is a matter OF general knowledge
that the Engineering and Mining Jour-
nal averages are agreed upon as rule
in pra actlcally all metals, there being an
apparent need for some disinterested au-
thorlty acceptable both TO the smelters
and the ore producers.
One can hardly expect spelter to du-
plicate Its market career of 1912 in the
present year The industry in 1912 was
unique In that a large increase In pro-
duction was attended by the highest
price In history. The high price has
stimulated production wherever zinc ores
existed, which was seen In Utah where
a dozen or more different properties were
able for the first time in their career
TO produce such ores at a profit. This
was due solely 10 the high market
price.

Based upon records OF drilling to date
General Manager Hoar estimates that
approximately 1,500, 600 tons of proven
and provable ore. considered OF a com
mercial grade in the Miami district, have
been developed.
THE work OF exploring the property

on IN the past. will be continued until a
hole has been drilled on the corner OF

OF development used by the Live Oak

The management feels that we have
a property OF exceptional promise, and
that a thorough drilling campaign Will

Settlements Based Upon Low
er Figure Than Quotations

TO cut off approximately 500 value
from lot OF 100 tons OF ore is no small
matter. yet this is what is happening
to many producers of zine ores in the
state OF Utah, a result OF the spelter
market dropping from Its high point Of
1912 TO the low point of the existing
range The difference In price means
close To 81 per ton, and mine managers
as we'll AS shareholders are TO be par
doned for protesting against such a fate
in view OF the fact that the best in
formed authorities insist that there Is
no surplus supply OF spclter on hand
anywhere, which fact justifies seeming

Origin of Ores.

Most OF the quartz ore shipped for this
period was developed on the Governor vein
through the Iron Blossom workings a
drift being run south on the 600 level a
10 oe lower than the ore body, and three
raises have been driven into the ore av-
era ging nearly 100 feet, from which a
small production has been maintained.
The pay ore varies In width on this shoot
from one TO five feet, and while the val
high, 4 fair profit is realized. 4 small
amount OF work done on the 500 level on
the Iron Blossom side, we believe, has
demonstrated a split OF the Governor vein
which VIII make two distinct veins ex-
tending through the Governor claim, and
while our work has al been done 10 the
west. there will undoubtedly be cons!d-
cradle ore mined from the east shoot
judging from the results the Iron Bios
som company have attained.
The work from the Black Jack side con-
Sists mainly I'm a crosscut to the west OF
t6 feet, drlft 10 the north on the Gov
ernor vein q distance OF 355 feet. and a
raise OF 90 feet, which has now connected
with the drift from the Iron Blossom side.
Small quantities OF pay ore were encoun-
tered In this work and several shipments
have been made. However, the work from
this side was not as profitab BILE es from the
north. for the reason that we have pushed
the main drift TO make the connection
and simply mined the ore thus encoun-
tered. When raises are completed TO de-
Helop the ore body from this side, we be-
lieve good profit viii be shown. One
raise, 175 feet high. has been driven; also
a crosScut from the top TO cut the paral-
lei vein 10 the east. but II proved TO be
low grade at this point. A crosscut to
the east on the 300-foot level was driven
a distance OF 2s3 feet and cut the por-
phyry contact. but nothing OF Importance

Consumer Pauses.

Another logical conclusion to the 1912
situation was the determination to- re-
move the tariff on zinc, thereby opening
the doors to Mexican metal free of duty.
doubtless believes that there are factors
at work making for lower market prices,
for conditions unquestionably In both
metals were abnormal. Both metals
during the past sixty days have acted
directly opposite to what the accepted
authorities freely predicted, and authori-
ties at the present time have little TO
say. The metal market is weaker than
many believe is just, but factors are
working which may drive the market
considerably lower.
