Show I i TO RUN SMELTER AT UNIVERSITY Senior Class in Mining Engi Engineering Engineering Engineering Will Blow BloY in Blast Furnace Today The blast furnace In the metallurgy building at the tho university will be started today on a run and dur due during durIng dueing ing the operation pounds of ore will willbe willbe willbe be treated This practical work Is done annually by the Ute senior mining engineers In connection with the study of metallurgy The students will do all the work connect connected ed Sd with the smelting of the ore are and have haye be been n making a study of the different pro processes since the early part of the year The students first took samples of the theore theore ore which they Intend to refine and studied the method of extraction from the mines They then made assays of or the different ores from which they calculated the furnace fur furnace furnace nace charges and now they will put their theory Into practice The men will work shifts with five or six mem members members bers hers of the class elMs on a shift shUt Professor R B RH RII II H Bradford will supervise the run The furnace has been extensively re remodeled remodeled remodeled modeled since Inee the run ruTi last year ear and all 11 the latest appliances havo have been Installed Considerable work was attached to get getting getting ting tim the furnace ready read but everything is isnow Isnow isnow now in shape and the th fire will be started early this morning The ore from the For Fortuna Fortuna Fortuna tuna mine at Bingham which has hag been roasted in pot furnaces reducing the sul sW sulphur sulphur content to 5 S per cent will be used along with 1000 pounds of sorted ore from the same mine and a similar amount of ot ore from the Uncle Sam mine at Eureka Tho The students estimate that SO 50 pounds of o bullion will be cast from the run |
