Dealers shipments of copper-bas-e scrap to consumers in the second half of 1942 exceeded those of the firsi half by 43,529 tons, and brought the total to 488,436 tons (gross weight) during the entire year, but it is estimated that a much larger tonnage of copper-bas- e scrap went directly from factories to brass mills and smelters without passing through dealers yards. Reshipments of copper and brass scrap from dealer to dealer within the trade totaled 219,206. tons during 1942, not including transactionse of peddlers. Stocks of copper-basscrap fell from 50,492 short tons on January. 1 to 39,499 tons on Feb. 28, then increased quite steadily for ten months to 57,587 tons on Dec. particularly mine, which, because of its production of more than 2,400,000 pounds of copper, has been the largest and most consistent producer. The geology of the mine is described and the commercial possibilities discussed in Pamphlet CO of the Idaho Bureau of Mines Pope-Sheno- and Geology, reports Dean A. W. Fahrenwald of the University of Idaho school of mines, Moscow, bureau director. This pamphlet, is based upon field work done by Dr. Alfred L. Anderson for the. Idaho Bureau. It is concluded in the report that the deposits are that deeper development should add greatly to ore reserves; and that, prices for copper being favorable, there is no apparent reason why work at the mines should not be resumed. Copies of this report, which also discusses other copper mineralization in the Lemhi County area, may be secured at 35 cents each from Dean Fahrenwald of the University of Idaho school of mines, Moscow. deep-seate- tin-bas- Gol- dContinued from Page 1 g ores to of siliceous meet the greater demand for silica as flux at smelters.

Lead and Tin Scrap e and Shipments of lead-bas- e scrap from dealers to consumers were remarkably steady (Figure 3) through 1942. with transactions in the first and last half of the year almost exactly 306,192 short tons Sual. Of the supplied to industry 36,054 tons were the year, during melted by dealers for convenience in handling. Dealers receipts exceeded shipments in each of the last five months of 1942 resulting in a piling up of material for which consumer demand was lacking. Movements of lead and tin scrap from dealer to dealer within the trade totaled 115,129 short tons. Stocks declined from 29,975 short tons (gross weight) on hand Jan. 1 to 27,000 tons on March 31, then remained at virtually the same level for the next four months. A sharp rise that started in August ana continued at an equal rate for the balance of the year brought stocks to 38,501 tons on Dec. 31, showing an increase of 41 per cent in the last five months, although the overall increase for the year was only 28 per cent. Aluminum Scrap With respect to volume, aluminum was the third most important type of scrap handled by dealers. Receipts from scrap sources and shipments to consumers exceeded the dealers stocks throughout 1942 (Figure 4), and a general upward trend in transactions was exhibited during all but the first four months of the year. Dealers shipped 100,796 short tons of aluminum to consumers out of the 103,856 tons they collected from domestic and industrial sources.' A difference of 3,060 tons between the 5,660 tons on hand Jan. 1 and 8,720 tons on Ded 31 constituted a stock increase of 54 per cent during 1942, but the monthly rate of shipments with vouchers to the. undersigned at 1284 Stratford Avenue, Salt Lake City, Utah, on or before the 28th day of June, A.- D. 1943.

Date of first publication, April rose at the same time in like proThe sharp upward portion. trend in aluminum scrap movement first noted in June apparently followed immediately after revisions in government regulations allowed scrap generators to sell segregated plant scrap to dealers in lots up to 5,000 pounds per month compared with the earlier limitation of 1,000 pounds. Reshipments of aluminum scrap among dealers totaled 28,711 tons in 1942. . . Zinc Scrap D aelers shipments of zinc-bas- e scrap to consumers were largest in May 1942 at the .height of the campaign, and totaled 50,435 short tons for the entire year. Stocks at the end of 1942 were 49 per cent higher than the Jan. 1 inventory even though a decline was registered in the last two months (Figure 5). More than half of the zinc-bas- e scrap handled by dealers consisted of wrought zinc and die castings, since most shipments of industrial byproducts such as dross, skimmings, and flue . dust are made directly from generators to consumers. Zinc-bas- e scrap towas tons recycled taling 17,878 among dealers during the year. Nonferroas Nickel Scrap Nickel-silve- r is classed as a copper-bas- e alloy, and most other nickel-bearin- g scrap consists of alloy iron and steel, leaving comparatively little nonferrous material that can be designated as nickel-base- . Shipments of unalhigh-nicknickel and alloyed loy scrap totaled 3,297 short tons in 1942. Dealers stocks rose from 464 to 911 tons during the year, while both receipts and shipments exhibited a general upward trend. auto-wrecki- ng -- el Magnesium Scrap Magnesium is a newcomer to the scrap dealer industry, and is not yet well known. Brass or iron turnings were occasionally reported by dealers as magnesium,' and although these entries were corrected whenever found, the figures presented may still be too high. Very little industrial scrap was handled by dealers during 1942, and use of magnesium has not been sufficiently widespread to create a backlog of obsolete objects for salvage. Dealer shipments of magnesium scrap totaled 1,871 short tons in 1942, and stocks rose from 105 tons on Jan. 1 to 111 tons at the end of the year. Rehabilitation Work Progresses Colo. The. BRECKENRTOGE, rehabilitation of the Country Boy lead and zinc mine is progressing rapidly, says C. L. Colburn, mining engineer for the mine, and 28 men are working around the clock, in order to get into production as soon as possible. From all indications, the Country Boy will be shipping ore to the Golden Cycle mill at Colorado Springs by May 15. A good vein of high grade ore has been opened in the upper tunnel which was very unexpected. This will add materially to the output of the mine. The lower tunnel was enlarged to 5x7 feet in the clear and the tunnel graded, which will add to the efficiency of operations as soon as it is' put into production.' A number of new air drills have been added to the already large amount of equipment. Ore bins have been built and others repaired. When the roads get into condition so that ore can be hauled from the mine, Mr. Colburn will have the Country. Boy mine ready to ' produce. Jack Yaunt has charge of the underground work. The Country Boy has in the past been one of the large producers of high grade ore and should be one of the big assets to this community in the future. There are many other high grade mines in the district which no doubt could be - d. Rate Cuts Unlikely OPA support of Detroits petition for lower rates on electricity, just after the decision to cut rail freight rates, is not necessarily significant In the first place, the Federal Power Commission has no jurisdiction over city oi state retail rates, which are. a function of state commissions. Secondly, the Detroit Edison Co, is in a more vulnerable position than many other utilities for a rate attack. It is subject to a large excess profits tax, which, it is contended, might as well remain in Detroiters pockets as go to the Government Whether or not the reference to utility e rates in the will encourage rate petitions is another question. - hold-the-lin- Min production of gold in the United States, by States, for the years of 1941, 1942, and and February 1943, in terms of recoverable metal, base on smelter and mint receipts (fine d; with vouchers to the undersigned at Suite 700, Utah Savings and Trust Building, 1943.
