The United States Geological sur

put OF gold silver, copper, lead and
zinc from Nevada mines as approxi-
mate1y $34,566,O00. This represents
an increase OF nearly lS per cent over
the output Of 1914, when metals val
ued at 29,3O0,S42 were produced.
These estimates, by V. c. H eikes. of
the Salt Lake City office of the sur

zinc output, and increase i'll lead and

by the decreased price OF silver.
The production of gold was valued
at about $l1,o6S,0OO, an increase of
4 per cent over the production Of
1914. The greater part of the god
came from siliceous ores milled. and
about 20 per cent of the total came
