PRODUCTION OF LEAD in 1914.
Extract report by

begun in 1906, has necessitated the
separate table which follows The
production Of refined lead can with
difficulty be apportioned according to
sources of ore, owing to the fact that
lead refiners treat smelted products
whose origin may, as in custom refin-
ing, be unknown TO them, the identi-
ty of the ore and thus its original
source being preserved only 50 far as
the smelter. Accordingly, this table,
showing sources of lead smelted or re-
fined In the United States, is based as
far as possible on smelter figures 1t
includes pig lead" reported by all
known smelters running on Mississippi
valley or southern lead ores, and
work Lead produced at all other
lead smelters In this country. The
greater part of the product reported
by smelters operated in conjunction
with refineries is In terms of refined
lead. A like part of the antimonial
lead is thus eliminated from the
work lead" produced and appears on
ly in the figures of production of an
timonial lead. No lead ore from the
United States was treated elsewhere

The largest contribution made by
any state to the domestic output OF
lead was made by Missouri, 1925
tons, a gain of 41,S45 tons, more than
81 per cent, over 1918, which enabled
that state to retain first position in
lead production, which rank was seri-
ously threatened by Idaho, making
the next largest gain, 4O,025 tons, or
20 per cent Utah also made good
gain of 1907 tons, or rs per cent. The
other states made no material change

table, however, there are frequent dis
crepancies. The causes of these dis
crepancies fall into four categories.
The first is lag, by which is meant the
time that elapses between the ship
ment Of ore by the mine and the re-
duction Of the ore by the smelter. This
Is frequently considerable, for ore rails
ed near the end Of the year may re-
main in the stock bins Of the smelter
until the succeeding year, and, unless
balanced by an equivalent lag from
the preceding year, will thus lead to
an apparent mine excess" Near the
close Of 1911 there were reports in the
mining journals of the accumulation
of 10000 tons of lead ore at the Tooele
smelter then under construction, but
which did not blow In until 1912. The
lead content of this ore appears as
mine excess in 1911. II through acci-
dent, business depression, or otherwise
the mines close down, the shelters

ments back to equivalent metallic lead
on the basis Of average analysis Of pro-
duct. In compiling the mine totals
each producing property is requested
to report actual tonnage of lead ores
and concentrates shipped, and from
this tonnage the lead content is reck-
oned by assay value. The quantities
thus obtained from all the producing
properties in each state are combined
TO make the total. II is clear that by
either method the correctness OF the
totals is dependant upon complete and
correct returns from every producing
mine and smelter. 1t is further es-
sential to the correctness of the mine
totals that the assay content be cor
rectly estimated.

tent of the soft-lead ores so smelted
has been recorded since 1894 Since
1905 the quantity of soft lead produced
by each state has been recorded, as
shown in the tables below. In the table
Immediately following, the output of
the soft-lead smelters is given in the
first column, and the lead content of
soft-lead ores smelted and desilverized
is given in the second column. For
the years 1904 and 1905 a portion of
the quantity given in the second
column represents lead content of ore,
and portion is refined lead. From
1906 to the present the only quantity
given is that of refined lead.
The smelter totals represent actual
recovery and are found by summing up
the total production reported by all
and recalculating all pig
