Introduction Of Vacuum Process.

l9U4.
Introd uction of Vacuum Process.
Recovery in the vacuum process
was secured by the addition OF smail
amount of oil and the liberation of air
into the pulp In fine state OF subdiyi-
sion. The injection of air was made
possible by creating a vacuum. This
vacuum was caused by small
vacuum pump the pipe from which
enters the top of the vacuum ma
chine. The air Is slightly heated and
when released, attaches Itself to the
oiled mineral particles, causing them
to raise to the surface Of the tanks or
vacuum machine. The tailings are
drawn off from the bottom on the
vacuum machine through pipes that
are water sealed at tehir discharge
end. The ore and oil Is fed into a
cylinder having rotating arms or beat
ers, It's entire length. The revolving
of these arms or beaters produces
pulp of even mixture. From the mix
ing cylinder the pulp Is drawn up TO
the vacuum machine or separating
chamber, where concentrate and tall
ing are separated.
y The process Is well adapted to treat
ores that are almost impossible to
concentrate by other methods. Chal-
copyrite Is easily separated from mag
netite and spathic iron refuse, and
copper sulphides from oxide of tin.
Cinnabar and iron pyrite are readily
concentrated.
The vacuum process has been In
stalled at the Dolcoath mine In Corn
wall. and the Ramsley mine In Devon
SHE, England; the Edmundian Copper
mine in South Africa, British Broken
Hill Proprietary mines in Australia
the Caucasus copper mine in Russia;
also in Sweden, Norway New South
Wales and in Mexico.
The mystery that has surrounded
the flotation process has had much tc
do with it's many failures. Literature
regarding the subject Is less than ter
years old Details of machinery anc
methods of operations leaving out the
question of costs, by companies, have
invariably been guarded as state Sc
crets, which has resulted in much mis-.
information being published. The only
creditable work ever published, COW

mention, is concentrating Ores b!

Macquisten Process.
The Federal Mining & Smelling

nearly per cent more than the record
production of the preceding year The
total value Of the output, however, de-
creased from $13,9S6,366 in 1913 to
$13, $4,000 in 1914 All the important
mines continued operations, with the
exception Of the Morning, which was
active about half the year. Lemhi
county decreased it's output 65 per
cent and the Wilbert mine in Fremont
county was far below the total of the
previous year. But in Shoshone coun-
W notable increases were made from
the Hercules, Sierra Nevada, Stewart,
Caledonia, Tamarack & Custer, Green
ill-Cleveland, Ontario and Interstate
Callahan mines. Nearly all the mills
In the county have added flotaton ma
chines, some making a zinc concen-
trate, others silver lead product At
the Hecla mill the capacity was in
creased about 40 per cent in October,
and the mill north of Wallace used by
the Marsh Mining company, was over
hauled. A section of the Bunker Hill
mill was used on Caledonia ore. The
bunker Hill has been experimenting
with a system of reducing the ore to
It's various metals at the mine. The
Yreka district, around Wardner, pro-
duced about 162,000,OO0 pounds of lead,
against 140,335,421 pounds in 1918
Big Increase in Zinc.
Shipments of zinc ore and concen-
trate from Idaho mines increased from
39,17S tons in 1913 to about 81 900 tons
IN 1914, and contained about 543O 900
pounds of zinc, or probably 3S,614,OOO
pounds Of recoverable spelter, against
23,173,S5S pounds of spelter in 1913
The Increase of nearly 81 per cent
came principally from the Occur
dAlene mines, small portion only
coming from Blaine county. The i'm
portant shippers were the Interstate
callahan, Success, Green Hill Ceve
land, Morning and Hercules. More
imam half the total came from the In
terstate property. Concentrate and
eiuue ore, mostly zinc, were shipped d.
the rate Of 24OO tons month. The
success mine was shipping 1900 to
l4OO tons a month, but the Morning
mine considerably decreased its zinc
output. The Green Hill mine supplied
some crude ore and large shipments q
concentrate, and at the Hercules mn
zinc concentrate was made. After
the Frisco mine at Gem was unwater'
ed the mill was equipped to treat zinc
ore and may require roasting ana
magnetic separation.
The principal dividend payers ~
Idaho In 1914 were the Bunker HUI

Future Prospects.
The future of oil flotation is excep-
tionally bright; the field is wide for
the recovery of zinc sulphdes from
lead milling, and in separating copper
sulphides from silicious refuse. 1t is
already in commercial use to the ex-
tent that the total recoveries to date
are about 1,25O,00O tons Of spelter
100000 tons of lead: 24,50O,000 ounces
silver, and 10000 tons Of copper.
The process has developed sue
cessful method Of recovering valuable
metals from low grade ores. The
progress made by experiments and
tests as noted, from time to time dur
ing the past year, by the various COM
panies through the country, clearly ev-
licences the fact that flotation is the
coming ore separator
The usual flotation plant requires
exacting operation; therefore special
men must be employed for this par
ticular class of work. and. in order to
attain high efficiency in recovery at
low operating costs, very careful
watch must be kept to avoid waste of
acids and oils; hence the operating
costs, insofar as labor Is concerned, Is
necessarily high.
