B. C. Mineral Production
 Shows Gain For 1883

The gross value of British Columbia's mineral production for 1883 is estimated at $28,- 0S0, 0,489, an increase of $685. 871, or 2.9 per cent, as con- pared with the output of 1882, according to a preliminary re- port of the Minister of Mines.
 Quantity production in the aggregate was about the same ays in 1882, but slightly higher metal prices assisted in achiev- ing a higher output value than in the preceding year. The tonnage of ore mined was ap- p1'3ximately, or almost the same as in 1882. The average grade of ore was $5 per ton, as compared with $4.32 in 1882.
 Gold production showed an increase both in placer and lode. The combined gold out put totaled $4,857,780, on the basis of $20.67 per ounce. Ad- vancing gold prices are estim- ated to' have increased the val ue of the output to $6,702.890.
 Silver production of the pro- vince estimated at 6,900,O00 ounces, shows a slight decrease in quantity from that of 1882 but owing to higher prices the value was approximately $685. 900 greater. Total value of the output is placed at 2,593,- 503, as compared to $2,258,- 453 in the preceding year. The Premier and Sullivan mines were the leading producers and Premier was second on the lis4; of gold producers.
 Copper production declined nearly 7,0O0,0OO pounds and is placed at 43,OOO,000 pounds. Lead production increased in quantity and nearly a million dollars in value over 1882, with an out p u of 65,000,000 l pounds, valued at S6,353,640.
 Zinc output declined approxi- mately 36,000,000 pounds but 1 increased prices more than off set the less. Production is placed at 156,O0o,OOO pounds, valued at S5,011,656.
