MINERAL PRODUCTION
BIG DECREASE IN 1920
REPORTS OF GEOLOGICAL SUR
VEY SHOWS SLUMP IN ALL
WESTERN STATES.

The output of GOLD, silver copper,
lead and zinc in California in 1920,
according 10 preliminary estimates
compiled by Charles G. Yale, of the
San Francisco office of the United
States geological survey, department
OF the Interior was as follows: Gold
Sl3,93S,6OO silver, 1,53S,660 fine ozs.;
copper, 12,9S4,9OO pounds; lead, g.
OIL, 900 pounds; zinc, 1,572,5O0 pounds
Corresponding figures showing the
actual production for the year 1919
were: Gold s16,695,955; silver. 1,1O7,-
1S9 fine ounces; copper. 21,732,507
pounds; lead, 1862 pounds; zinc,
472,99O pounds. The output of metals
in 1920. as compared with that in 1919
therefore shows a decrease of S2,762,-
S55 in gold; an increase of 4S1,471 fine
ounces in silver; a decrease of $751;
COZ pounds in copper; an increase of
15O3,3S3 pounds in lead; and an in

a small decrease in the output of gold

in 1920 was s942,2OO, which compar-

surprising that the state so nearly
held it's own in the production of gold
in view of the adverse conditions I'M
der which gold mining has been car
RED on. Less than half as many
mines were producing in 1919 as in
1918, and the number must have still
further decreased in 1920. The out
put of silver in Oregon in 1920 was
199,94O ounces as compared with ILL.,
III ounces in 1919, an increase for
1920 of $3.50 ounces. The output of
copper in 1920 was 100000 pounds,

less, but there was an increase in the
output from SnohOmish county Ship

Despite curtailment of operations in

increase in the output of lead and

the fact that the Sunnyside cOmpany's
