AUSTRALIAN SPELTER
BIG BRITISH CONTRACT
KEEP AMERICAN MARKET FROM
BEING FLOODED WITH THE
FOREIGN PRODUCT.
(Mlning and scientific Press)

In our last issue we published an
interesting letter from our London
correspondent, commenting upon the
future of the zinc smelling industry
In its world wide aspect and referring
to the recent purchase by the British
government of 100000 tons of concen-
trate from the zinc corporation on the
basis of G25 per ton for the metal
This shipment of 100000 tons Is to be
distributed among the smelling plants
in Great Britain, their total capacity
being about that much per annum, as
compared with $4,000 tons before the
war. In previous issues we have re-
ferred to the Australian zinc problem,
that is, the question of treating the
900. 900 tons of zinc concentrate pro-
.duced at Broken Hill. Formerly this
product was smelted in Belgium and
Germany. There has been much talk
concerning the building of new smelt-
ers in Great Britain which consumes
annually 100000 tons of spelter, OF
lust about as much as Australia pro-
duces, but nothing has been done to-
ward the erection of any big plant be-
cause pre- existing contracts and other
obstacles interviewed. AS stated in our
Me tai Market Review recently, tbs
British government has agreed to pur-
chase 700 tons of concentrate pei
annum during the war, and for II
years after the war. Moreover, the
same government will purchase, an
nually for 10 years, $4,000 tons of the
spelter produced in Australia this be-
ing the equivalent of 112,500 tons OF
concentrate per annum on an average
assay of 40 per cent zinc, besides
per cent lead, and Q ounces of silver
per ton. Thus 212, 500 tons of con-
centrate is marketed. Altogether
adding the tonnage already under con-
tract In Australia not less than $780,
900 tons per annum is sold. Negotia-
tons are pending for the sale of the
remaining half of the output to France
and Belgium. A sum of $125,000, 600 il

British government and the Austral.
ian mining companies, The transae'
ton Is due to the initiative OF w. M
Hughes, the federal premier, and II
W. S. Robinson, a distinguished di.

don. Finally. it is announced that thu
! imperial government has arranged II
advance $2.50O,00O toward the cost o

Drowning fire in Michigan is be-
ing done in a thorough manner The
Dober mine, a large underground iron
minesof the U. s. Steel corporation at
Iron River, has been burning for five
years as consequence of pyrite in
the ore. Several months ago, the gas
and fumes from the fire became so bad
that nearly all work had to be stopped.
An unsuccessful attempt to control the
gas by yentilating blower drove sui
phur fumes among the residents
around the mine. Now the manage
ment has decided to draw temporarily
the pumps and machinery from the
mine and divert Iron river, a good
size stream into the workings. Three
days will be needed to fill the mine
with water. and 1000, 100000 gallons
viii be required After the fire Is ex-
tinguished, the mine win be unwatered
