Pattern Indeed If there is one thing more than another which distinguishes the Silver King plant from all its fellows It is the superb T manner In which it i has been equipped This applies not only to the machinery I in the hoisting plant compressorroom and milt butIn the character and perfect per-fect adaptability oflts numerous buildIngs build-Ings as well as the great aerial tram which carries the ore down and the coal up In a serIes of buckets depending from huge steel l cables siLspqpded on V stately towers built of structural steel on solid stone foundations and which Is always the first thing to attract the attention of the visitor to Park City This tram Is an example of the latest and best practice In that species of transportation and Is well worth a visit to Utahs greatest mining camp to inspect In-spect It wag Installed by the Mine nnd Smelter Supply company using the Flnhl son patents and although It has I a capacity of twentyone tons per hour It requires the services of but one man in its operation everything except admitting ad-mitting ore Into the buckets at the upper up-per end being entirely automatic I Neither docs It require any power to move the Immense weights carried other oth-er than that generated by the ore Itself In Its descent over the hills from mine to railroad receiving station In act it develops about 12 horsepower In excess ex-cess of requirements and this Is utilized in carrying back QU of the coal used nt the mlno In the same buckets which bring the arc down This operation is llktwlse automatic cce1t that gates have to be opened and closed by hand at the point where the coal is loaded Under the boilers In the various steam generating rooms at the mine the coal is fed to the furnaces automatically automati-cally by means of American underfeed under-feed slokeii thus doing away with all hand labor and securing a great economy econ-omy of fuel the combustion being practically prac-tically perfect and free from smoke THE SILVER KING MILL Entering upon the year 1902 with what to the casual observer was a pcrfodt concentrating plant the Silver King company has nevertheless found where Improvements could be mado and has made them So much has been written descriptive of this plant that It Is not our purpose to ro over this ground again hut rather rath-er to describe the changes that the paut year has brought about S The most extensive of these changes Is the addition of the slime and dryer department The formal Is equipped I 4 t + 1 H t + + + + + M 0 n J tit M ft + + kir Rc11T1I I I1 I jtt tt I I I IIi V rb L1 I

presses Each of these presses has a capacity of Jlf teen tons per twentyfour hours The V sllmc water which has been taken from the ore at various points In the process of concentration Is divided among the seven tunics The now through them is very low consequently the water X cornea oK almost clear The thick mud or comings Is tapped at V the bottom through molasses gates and elevated to f a storage tank above the presses From H here It in run through the steel receivers into the presses until the latter are full f and the former nearly ninety pounds f of compressed air Is then used to force 1 + the remaInder of the 1 mud Into the f presses and the water out through the1 canvas The water leaves the presses absolutely clear The prQcluct of this department Is shipped as a slime pro duct entirely Independent of the regu V lar concentrate V After going through the process described de-scribed the slimes still contain about 22 per cent moisture This makes it a hard product to sample and ship also Increasing the shipping weight To reduce S re-duce this moisture the company has Installed In-stalled a dryer of the Cummer revolving revolv-ing pattern It Is a cylinder fortyeight Inches In diameter by twentyfive fe9tt t long and can be made to revolve at different i dif-ferent speeds to suit the character of the ore It Is handling The dust Is collected col-lected In two hopperbottomed cham V beis one on top and one on the side of I the cylinder The slimes are first put V through a chopping machine Into which the dust Is also fed to keep the knives clear and to prevent the pieces of tbejl V sllme Cakes from sticking together on < the way to the dryer From here they S are conveyed through the cylinder and V elevated to the shipping bins The reg j S ulnr concentrates also go through this V dryer but are fed direct from the bin t rby a plunger feeder The slimes and concentrates aie dried to about 3 to 5 S per cent moisture The mill at present has capacity of 100 tons of ore In ten V hours this will be materially Increased by the addition of six new Wllfley tables + V I bles which will In all probability be 1 In operation the first of theyear The mill is now running two shifts and easily handles the output of second > V class ore from the mine Should this I output be Increased tho mill will put ton t-on the extra shift and run the twenty four hours But seven men sue required to run the mill proper a crusher man an oiler a V Jig man a jig cl1 man a table man and a table carmnil Besides these there Is t a machinist and helper a repaIr carpenter 1 car-penter fireman one man on the nress sand t i s-and two on the dryer 1 f The ore received at the mill Is conoentftr trutod in the ratio of three to one that V 7 IB twothirds of the weight Is Glh ill i-ll ted in the shape of worthless tailings In discussing the present condition and outlook for the future Mr M J + Daly says During the last year wo have opened up moreore than we extracted and wo are still goIng on with the development work The mine has more ore in i sight today than at any time in its history The ore Is getting richer as we go deeper V deep-er and the size of the ore body Is holdIng V hold-Ing about the same as on the upper i levels There Is nothing new outlined for < the future except to continue the development t opment work and this we will keep as far
