profitable production OF radium, gold,

spar mine at Jimtown near Boulder.

pany, will be taken at an early date.
Last Monday afternoon the bureau re-
ceived report from James NJ. McClave,
metallurgical engineer, upon his inves-
legations of the project. The expert held
that with plant properly equipped and
properly conducted and with a satis-
mine should prove profitable under
taking.
Many mining experts heard the Nc
Clave report and a discussion developed
regarding the future fluorspar market.
Doubt. was raised as to whether In the
next few months fluorspar will command
prices at Colorado shipping points that
will merit big production. The bureau
finally authorized Chairman Richard a.
Parker to appoint n special committee
OF three members to draft letter to
be sent to the Pitchblende company.
This letter will be considered at a meet
