RICH MINES

Mining men have learned that ex-
ceptional richness Of mineral de-
posits on the surface is often a de-
ceiving condition. One has to "go
down ON II" to know whether he
has . mine or not. fs<
The extra enrichment OF ore de-
posits is q most intsresting problem
and has been covered thoroughly in
. bulletin issued by the United States
geological survey (No. s25. by w.
II. Emmons.)
The theory Of ore enrichment may
be briefly stated As follows: Min
eral deposits that are exposed to
weathering that is. to the action
Of the atmosphere. Of rain. frost,
and other agencies-break down and
form soluable salts and new minerals
that remain unchanged under sur
face conditions. In the course Oi
weatherfng, however. the ore Of each
metal behaves in it's peculiar way.
Deposits Of iron. aluminium, man
ganese. and some deposits Of gold
and other metals may be enriched
near the surface by the removal oil
valueless material. On the other
hand many Of the valuable metals
including copper. silver. and less
commonly gold. zinc, and lead, &c
into solution and are carried down
ward by rain water and re-deposited
and thus parts Of the ore bodies may
be enriched. Most Of the rich ol
"bonanza" ore bodies are copper
many of silver, and some Of gold and
other metals, have been formed IL
this way.
