Show I OUTPUT OF RED ' METAUN UTAH Mine Production During Past Year Greater Than Shown by Smelters. I' CURTAILMENT IS SEEN IN FIGURES i tfot All Metal Produced Sent Out to the Markets of World. Tu tlic annual edition of Tho Tribune, tho copper output from the smelters by no means represented Inc. production of the mines within tin's slate. A little over 54,000.000 pounds of tho metal was the result of the smelting operations during tho year, while tho mines of Utah produced pro-duced not far from 125,000,000 pounds, a record output and one that, compares vorv favorably -with the. authoritative production during 1009. Riven by the United States geological survey as 101,-211.114 101,-211.114 pounds. One property in Bingham alone, the I'tah Copper, has produced close to 00,-000,000 00,-000,000 pounds of copper during 1010, tho "figures given by the company for the first sloven months of the year reaching tho total of Sl,96i,nSl pounds, and tho December De-cember output will not fall much below i.nOO.OOO pounds. I Three or four other companies of the l8tc produced a liberal amount of copper cop-per during the year, among them being be-ing the Ynmpa. Blnghum-Now Haven, fc)hlo Copper and others, enough to run fhc acttinl mlno output to tho figures above mentioned. The wide difference between tho mine and smelter output Is remarkable and utiPNpected, and recalls ono to the programme pro-gramme of copper curtailment which evidently evi-dently Is being observed "by tho smelting smelt-ing and refining companies, us well as the mlno owners themselves. |
