ORE REDUCTION
Smelters Will Soon Be Succeeded by
New Process

Arizona is Americas storehouse for
minerals, and with proper accessible
1ty could supply the world with cop
per- A new process is about to revo
lutionize the industry.
According to the Arizona Mining
Journal the success of the Lockwood
copper recovery process bids no good
for towns depending on smelters.
Smelters under this system are a
thing of the past, for the article in
question sums up the new process as
follows:
The merits in using the Lockwood
copper recovery process as compared
with the present standard methods
smelling, concentrating, usual electro
type methods, precipitation over iron,
ETC., are:
l. The elimination of all transpor-
tatlon costs on ore shipment, as the
electrolyntic refiner copper may be
produced right at the mine.
2. A greater percentage of the COD.
per contents is taken from the ore
the Lockwood method securing a net
recovery in electrolytic copperof from
. per cent to 25 per cent more than
the usual recovery of copper metal
under standard known methods.
3. A saving in operating expenses
of from small amount up to several
cents per pound on each pound of
copper produced under the Lockwood
system as compared to the operating
costs of copper production otherwise
secured.
A. A reduction of from 20 per cent
to 40 per cent in cost of plant and
equipment, as compared to the stand
ard known methods.
