CLEARWATER PLACER.
A. D. Burrows Reports Good Outlook
for the Season.

Superior, Mont, independently
A. d. Burrow was in town this week
from the north fork of the Clearwater,
where he expects to work his placer
claims this summer. Mr. Burrow is
working at an altitude of about $500
feet, but expects the snow to be gone
SO that active operations may begin
within a few days. There is plenty
of water, and he says that the placer
miner will certainly clean up" this
year. He uses the hydraulic process,
taking water from ditch about 1900
feet long. He has been at the camp
for the past two or three weeks maxi
ing repairs on the ditch, the banks of
which we're taken out in places by
snowslides.

VALUE OF TUNGSTEN
UNUSUAL QUALITIES
FORMERLY WORTHLESS METAL
NOW POSSESSES MAGIC OF
GOLD TO MINER.
american Miner)

The word tungsten is Swedish, and
means "heavy stone" very apt title
for a metal whose identity remained
a mystery until the latter part of the
eighteenth century.
Tungsten is a word of almost magic
er of today as did gold to the forty
Miners" A few years ago 1t was exc
Grated by the gold miners of Boulder
county, Colorado, and was avoided
whenever possible because 1t lowered
the value of their concentrates. In
this respect it's history resembles that
of two other metals-in the great
Comstock lode of Nevada, where the
early miners threw away the black
sulphide of silver worth several thou
sand dollars per ton; and at Leadville
while the camp was getting its start
and the lead carbonates caused the
placer miners a great deal of trouble
by filing up the rifles in the sluice
boxes and interfering with the saving
of the gold. Silver made millions for
the Comstock miners, lead carbonates
with their contents did the same for
Leadville, and tungsten bids fair to do
likewise for it's producers.
The principal minerals of tungsten
are scheelite, wolframite, ferberite and
hubnerite.
Ore Easily Tested.
Place some of the finely ground ore
in a porcelain dish or test tube with a
mixture of four parts of hydrochloric
acid and one part nitric acid and boil
20 minutes. If there is tungsten pres
ent, the yellow powder of tungsten
trioxide will appear and, by adding
piece of tin or zinc and heating the
solution will turn blue.
Or, mix some of the finely ground
ore with ten times it's volume of So
dunn carbonate Common cooking
soda) and heat strongly in an iron
spoon or crucible until thoroughly
fused. Crush the fused mass, boil
strongly in a small quantity of water
until we'll dissolved and filter. Di-
vide the solution into two equal parts,
adding concentrated hydrochloric acid
in excess to both. Boil the first por-
ton few minutes and add zinc or

ued boiling turns to brown indicates
tungsten. Boil the second part for

appears, filter and wash the residue
with water. Add strong ammonia to
it, and if the yellow powder be dis
solved, it is tungsten trioxide.
If tungsten is still suspected of be-
ing in the ore but is not indicated by
the above tests, crush larger guam
tity of the ore to a fine state, concen-
trate by panning and similarly test
the concentrate.
Rare Qualities of Metal.
The metal is practically insoluble in
all the common salts. Its melting
point is 3,117 degrees c, the highest Of
the known metals. 1t is not affected
by the atmosphere, Its tensile
strength exceeds that of iron or
nickel and it is so ductile that it can
be drawn to smaller size wires than
can any otehr known metal, at the
same time retaining its remarkable
strength and pliability.
It's largest uses at present are in
tool-steel, lining high powered guns
and cannons, hardening armor plate
and the points of armor piercing
