NEW PROCESS FOUND FOR
TREATING LEADING ORES

During the past few months news
papers and mining men generally of
Utah have been giving consider
able attention to a recent dis
covery made by George E. Kingsley
for the treating Of lead and zinc ores
which seems to give promise of a
new evolution in the production of
those metals. The new process lie
briefly described as follows: THE
ore is concentrated. if desired. exact
ly as in any other process. From
this point our process differs from
all others. We dissolve the ore con-
centrates and from the solution the
resulting products are made by SIM
pie, chemical treatment. Thus we
accomplish in a few hours the manu-
facture of a product which has here
tofore required from six to twelve
weeks for completion"
The General Reduction and Chemi-
cal Company is now erecting a 100
ton plant in Salt Lake City, and is
DESTROYS of having auxiliary plants
established in all lead and zinc dis
tricts throughout the intermountain
country. The company will allow
the auxiliary plants the use of the
process. and the parties operating
the plants will be required to reduce
the metallic contents to a nitrate
form only. The company will pur-
chase the metallic contents of the
nitrates and pay the market price
therefor. The parties operating the
plants will be required to pay the
company Is per cent royalty on the
contents which the process saves that
is now being lost by the smelters, and
they will also be required to become
interested in the company to an ex-
tent agreeable to all parties.
If this new process proves a sue
cess it should mean the production
of a large tonnage of this class of ore
already blocked out in the mines at
Mt. Hope and near Alpha Station in
Eureka County.

s|LvER's BIG INCREASED PRICE
Present High Mark of the White
Metal Causing Renewed Ac-
tivity In All Mining Camps

The big jump in the increased price
of silver quoted this week has made
a wonderful stir in a number Of Ne
vada's silver mining camps and in
vestors from the outside are report
ed already f1ocking to this State in
search of silver properties.
New options and leases on several
properties in this district are re-
ported this week, and it is generally
felt that old Eureka will soon begin
to show signs of renewed activity in
mining. Several new business enter
prises are already under way. and
there is a general stir and feeling in
the community that business condi-
tons in all lines will soon show evi.
dence of improvement.
Silver vas quoted in the New York
market the first of the week at $1.19
IL per ounce, but had dropped to
Sill IL Thursday. Reference to
statistics published by the director
of the mint reveals many interesting
facts. In 1850, silver was sold on
the London exchange for an average
yearly price of $1.316. The price on
the English market steadily increased
until in 1859 the highest yearly price
attained since 1850. $1.36, was paid.
The highest single price paid during
this year was approximately $1.37.
The price at which silver closed
Tuesday is higher than any yearly
average price quoted since 1877. At
the close of the Civil war. in 1865, the
average yearly price for New York
was 81. 1897. In 1866, the price in
creased to $1.339. From then the
price of the metal steadily declined
in value. until in 1904 it had sunk to
ayearly price of So cents. From this
date until a price of $1.01 1-2 was
set by the federal reserve board. for
the period of the war, there has been
a steady increase in the value of
silver.
