HINT At PROCESS IN
CHRISTENSEN MILL

The Mining and Engineering World says
that within the past year two announce
ments have been made (Met and Chem.
Engr). concerning the use of chloridiZ-
Ing processes in Utah, but no technical
or operating details have been made pub
lie. Interest has attached to these ven
ful operators had given them approval to
the extent OF building plants for their
application. One of these plants Is at
Park City. erected for the treatment of
construction In the Tintic district, The
name OF Niels c. Christensen. Jr., of Salt
Lake City has been connected with the
development OF the process used at both
places.
A possible hint rs to the nature Of the
latter process is contained in specihca-
tons OF patent granted on October Z to
Mr.. Christensen. in which he states that
Is now In course of erection at Silver
City Utah, for the treatment of the ores
OF that district by this method" Tho
steps In the proposed process are as fol-
lows:
The ore is mixed with the proper pro-
portion OF sodium chloride and pyrlte.
to give tho chloridizlng reactions, and
ground to the proper fneness. - 1t Is then
moistened with mill solution" which is
an Approximately saturated solution OF
salts, NaCl. MCGEE. and CaCl2, and some
HCl 1t may be that no addition OF sod
ium chloride to the ore will be neces
sary, as the saturated solution OF chloride
salts will carry sufficient chlorine to give
the proper reaction. The per cent Of So
luton will vary from TO 15 per cent.
The moistened ore IS then charged In q
uniform layer from three to eighteen
Inches thick on the revolving hearth OF a
furnace, where 1t is successfully roasted,
cooled and discharged The hearth Is per-
forated and the ore charge Is subjected TO
the action OF hot air blown through the
perfora tons
The chlortdized ore is then agitated
with mill solution and enough blea ching
powder to dissolve the gold. The gem
eral result Is that the gold Is dissolved
by the chlorine, the silver chloride by the
other chlorides, the copper by the hy
drochloric acid and the lead by the acid
salt solution. This rich solution is filtered,
and tho residue properly washed. after
which the metals are precipltated success
sively-the gold and silver on copper and
copper and lead on iron.
The acid fumes from the roasting opera =
tons are recovered in a tower. being COL
lected in some of the precpitated mill So
luton. Any volatiized metals also arc
thus recovered,
1t Is stated that numerous tests on diff
ferent ores. both on large and small
scale. have given eXtractions as fol-
lows: Gold, so to % per cent; silver so
10 sc per cent; copper. rs TO 9S per cent;
lead, so to 90 per cent. The process ap-
pears to be a modification of the use OF
chlorine IN extracting both base and pre-
ciouS metals from the same ore.

SAL TING Of MINES
IS VERY RARE NOW

While the practice Of mine sailing is
not as common as 1t was twenty years
or moro ago. It is still occasionally done.
of the most successful large-scale oper-
atlons of this nature was perpetrated at
Juneau, Alaska, about twenty years ago.
writes a correspondent In the Engineer
ing and Mining Journal.
Three partners owned ledge 200 to
800 feet wide on an island near Juneau
They lad done great deal Of work In
tunnels, drifts and raises but the ore
was too low-Srade 10 make the property

ceeded 10 work UP sale on a basis OF
a total price Of $450,000. 20 per cent
payment TO be made after examination.
The prospective buyers sent two differ
ent corps OF engineers, one following the
other. One OF the owners met the first
party In San Francisco. worked into its
good graces and assisted in the sampling.
He was able TO salt the samples so that
they represented n value Of 81 per ton,
The second party was met by another OF
the owners and the same scheme success
fully worked. The samples checked nice
ly.
Wishing to make assurance doubly sure.
the purchasers sent out q third party,
but the engineer in charge of this one
would have nothing to do with the own
ers and required them to turn the mine

took two or three tons of samples and

While the samples were on the wharf

lists, with their little dude canes. stroll
ing around. would come to these sacks.
ask the watchman a lot of foolish ques-
tions about them, and all the time they
would be stabbing and punching the sacks
with their dude canes, which were loaded
with chloride of gold. This was repeated
several times, each time changing the
disguise, 1t was so well done that the
third engineers report was satisfactory
and the schemers received their first pay
ment. all that they expected

that the swinders received the first pay
ment, amounting to $4,000.

COUNTIES FIGHT OVER
IRON BLOSSOM TAXES

The fight between Juab and Utah
counties. for the taxes on the Iron Bios
an interesting one. says the Eureka Re-
porter Yesterday Juab county applied

ores extracted by this mining company
during 1872 came from ground which Is
located in Juab county. The shaft where
the ores are brought to the surface is To-
Gated in Utah county and for that reason
the state board OF equalization has al
lowed Utah county officers to collect the
tax. The amount OF the tax actually in

NEVADA DOUGLAS To
MAKE MORE TESTS
One of Three Made in Den
yer Experimental Plant
Fairly Successful.

The Boston office OF the Nevada Doug
las Copper company is in receipt OF the
details of three runs OF orc through their
tcn-ton experimental teaching plant at
Denver Colo.
The FIRST run Is represented by n sec
ton of clcctrolytic copper in the form
of r plate about one-fourth Inch thick.
Owing to tho fact that there was short
circuiting in this experiment. no accurate
record OF costs could be obtained
The second run is evidenced by two
sections of alcctrolytic copper about one
third Inch thick. This copper was pre-
cipitatcd from the sulphurlc acid lXi-
Want with a current density of i1.6 am
pereS per square foot. While the results
obtained indicated that they only got
5S per cent efficiency out OF their cleo
trio current Il nevertheless proved that
the company can produce copper AT the
mine at maximum cost OF between S
and cents pound. This covers min
ing, crushing, sulphuric acid consumption
and all other incldentals necessary To tho
treatment of ores. Copper produced IN
this process IS absolutely as good as the
best elecuolytic copper on tho market,
and there is demand OH tho Pacific
coast for copper In this form. AS all
western copper mas to pay at least 9
cents a pound for freight and refining
charges TO New York. tho actual cost
for producing copper at the mine Is really
j or cents less than the figures given
above
Experiment No. 3 is represented by
tree" copper. This WAS precipitated
with a current density of 100 amperes
per square foot OF cathode surface 1t
was found that the high cost for cleo
trolytic power in this experiment pro-
hibited its being used as a commercial
process. In this experiment II was found
that the presence OF ferric salts. which
are genera ted by the process, tended to
redissolve part OF the copper already pre-
cipitated.
Consequently, another experiment along
the lines of No. Will be made and sui
phur doxide gas injected into the llxl-
Want Sulphur dioXide has the property
OF reducing the ferrlc salts To a ferrous
salt as rapidly as IL is formed BY this
process they hope To obtain n very mich
higher efficiency than is shown by these
preliminary experiments.
