A Loss to Mininq

The death of F. G. Janney in Los
Angeles. following an operation for APP
pendicitis. removes the milling genius
and right-hanG man back of the d. c..
Jackling enterprises. It was F. G. jan
ney who designed the remarkable mill
ing system of the Utah Copper Co. back
in 1904. an event that put porphyry
copper mining on the map of the
worlds great industries and zine years
later led to the great gold mining in
dusty Of the Alaskan mainland near
Juneau. F. G. J2nney designed the
milling systems of the Utah, Ray and
Chino copper companies the Butte &,
Superior zinc mill at Butte, Mont. and
the Alaska Gold Mines Co. giant mill
at Juneau, Alaska.
He made it possible to mill low grade
ores at cost under soc per ton for
milling where before 1904. costs under
$3.50 per ton We're rare and costs I'M
der 800 non existing.
At the Butte & Superior mill, Janney
was the first TO introduce into the
western world the oil-flotation process
which had been used eXperimentallv in
Australia ana ms inventions have
greatly improved the oil flotation pro-
cess since then, so that today Janney
machines are in use in most of the oil
flotation plants of North and South
America. Jarney's milling improve
rlents turned the Butte & Superior
frcm a dismal failure into the world
greatest zinc mine.
f. G. Janney began business rela-
tons with d. c. Jac<ling back in 1896,
when both We're employed by the Con-
solidated Mercury Gold Mines, and
the friendship cemented then has en-
dured ever since to the mutual profit
of all concerned. and to the industrial
profit OF the world at large.
In these davs when the great mon
led kings of industry are so much in
the limelight. it behooves US now and
then to pay due tribute to the techni-
cal engineering genius. who. all too Of

The great density of quicksilver va

small amount of heat stored up by the

of condensation a relatively easy one,

Gated has been in time to save Ru-
