I sink a 4x6 shaft exactly ten feci, the values remaining exactly the same; all tho ore is extracted, thoroughly mixed and piled on the dump; allowing 170 pounds per cubic foot of ore In place, how much ore have I on the dump, and what Is the value per ton. silver being quoted at 5S cents per ounce? Also, where can J obtain Information regarding regard-ing the valuo of tungsten ores and a market for name? Also of uranium ores? J. M. F. Answer: Assuming that all the rock, ns well as the mineral, was removed from the hole there would bp at the surface sur-face 20-4 tons of ore containing 2550 ounces silver, or 125 ounces silver per ton. On a market at 6R cents an ounce the ore, accordingly, possesses a valua- j lion of $72.50 per ton. The exhibit in detail follows: 60 cubic feet multiplied by 170 pounds equals 10.200 pounds, containing 100 ounces per ton 510 ounces. 60 cubic feet multiplied by 170 pounds equals 10.2fi0 pounds, containing 20U ounces per ton 1020 ounces. 20 cubic feet multiplied by 170 pounds equals 3100 pounds, containing GOO ounces per ton lOiO 'ounces. 1(0 cubic foot multiplied by 170 pounds equals 17,000 pounds. iMfl cubic feet multiplied -by 170 pounds equals 40,800 pounds, containing 2550 ounces. Twenty and four-tenths tonB on dump contains 2550 ounces." Two thousand five hundred and fifty , ounces divided by 20.1 tons equals 123 ounces multiplied by 5S cents, value of silver per ounce, equals $72.50 per ton.
