PHOSPHATE ROCK
PRODUCTION HAS
HEAVY INCREASE
Thirty-Three Per Cent in Quantity
and About Fifty Per Cent In
Value Over Production
in 1918.

Idaho produced in 1919 at least
10000 tons of high grade phosphate
rock, valued at $4,000, an increase
of 33 per cent in quantity and about
55 per cent in value over the produc-
ton of approximately $4,000 tons,
valued at $4,000 in 1918, says the
u. S. geological survey The opera
tors in Idaho are the San Francisco
Chemical company, the Western
Phosphate & Manufacturing COM
pany,, and the Merriman Potash Pro-
duets company, operating in Bear
Lake county. No reports for 1919
have been received from mines some
times operated in Rich county, Utah,
and Uinta county, Wyoming.
OF the shipments made in 1919
from the western field 10000 tons
was billed to California, 1000 tons to
Hawaii, and most of the rest to ILL
nois. The shipments made during
the first three months of 1920 aver
aged more than $500 tons a month.
Most of the rock was sent to Californ-
ia for treatment, some to Chicago,
and one shipment of several hundred
tons to Japan.
In February, 1920, it was reported
that contracts have been made for
large shipments of Idaho phosphate
rock to Japan and that bunkers are
being built on the dock at Portland.
Ore, to provide for these shipments
1t is reported also that the Anaconda
Copper Mining CO., will operate a
phosphate manufacturing plant in
connection with it's smelter at Ana
conda The phosphate rock for this
plant will be mined at Melrose, south
of Butte, and ON Warm Springs Greek
