duction. AT one time. when tung-
stem was at its highest, miners In the
Nederland district even used tungsten
concentrates as stakes in poker games,
as old time miners used gold nuggets.
A sack of tungsten at IS a pounl was
not an unattractive jackpot While
the boom was at its height, carloads OF
tungsten were sent to Pittsburgh at
express rates.
The United States in the first half
of 1915 produced 1920 tons of concen-
trated tungsten ore, valued at $4,000

$3,63S,00O, of which the Nederland-
Boulder field produced 1,494 tons. Most
of the remainder was produced in Cal

With the crest of the boom past,
and production established on some
thing approaching normal basis,
much of the spectacular element has
gone from the tungsten field of Colo

the new mills which have been erect
