COPPER
Leading Dealers Continue to Ask 10
Cents for the Metal-Production
Between 80 and IS per cent of
Normal Normal Output
Will Not be Reached
for at Least three
Months

NEW YORK-While business in
copper metal is quiet, the leading
dealers continue to ask 10 cents for
the metal. In trade circles the be-
lief prevails that buying viii start
soon. Very little of the red metal
is available for delivery before July.
There has been some talk that
the production of copper has re
turned to normal. but this is not true.
1t will he recalled that when the
war broke out all the copper com
panies cut down their outputs and,
although they have increased OPP
erations productions is not yet back
TO normal.
1t is estimated that the outturn
of the copper mines at present is
something between so and IS per
cent ~ normal and ii will be some
time before full operations have been
established.
It must also he remembered that
after the normal output had been
reached = will take nearly three
months more before the ore has gone
through the refiners. Therefore. at
best. the output cannot be back to
the highest until late summer. at
least. and possibly not before some
time ir the fall.

short tons carrying 50 per cent. Of
tungsten trioXide (WO3,) according to
preliminary figures collected by Frank
L. Hess of the United States Geoli-

accurate within per cent. This
output is tho smallest since 1908,
when only GIL tons was produced. In
1913 the production was 1887 tons. of
which 953 tons was ferberite from the
Boulder field in Colorado. a quantity
almost equal to that of the whole

RAY Consolidated Copper Co.

The report of this company for

of copper: 4,053.147 lbs. in January;
4.S30,553 lbs. in February and 5.579.-
51S los. in March. In addition to
copper derived from concentrating
ores there was a total of 136.742 lbs
Of copper contained in ore shipped to
the smelter during the quarter.
This brings the total gross produc-
tion for the quarter up to 14.599 955
lbs
The total ore milIed for the suarter
was 656.652 tons. averdging 1867 per
cent copper. The average mill re-
Covcry was 66.0S per cent milling
costs for the quarter were 4S.95c per
ton. and the average mining and
coarse crushing cost was - 202c per
ton. of which 3.01Tc was the cost of
coarse crushing. The combined cost
per pound of net copper produced
from milling and shipping ore for
the quarter was S.ST4c. These costs
include all operating and general
charges
The earnings for the quarter are
based on a price of 1920 per III.
of copper. All copper remaining I'M
sold at the end of the quarter has
since been sold at an average price
considerably in excess of that at
which the unsold was carried and the
