Show METAllURGICAl I DISCOVERY Of WORlDWIDE INTEREST Production of Blister Copper by New Fink Smelting Process Will Revolutionize Rev-olutionize Mining Salt Lake City Saturday night at 10 oclock the first pouring of copper bullion blister copper that was over made in a single process fur > mince in the world was accomplished at tho Edward Fink plant at Oar > field near the Boston Consolidated mill With fifteen men on a shift and with the utilization of twenty five horse power of energy and a couple of tons of fuel at the outside the Fink smelter has demonstrated Its ability to convert Boston Consolidated I Consol-idated concentrates Into copper bullion bul-lion at tho rate of better than 100 tons a day This means a revolution In mining a cheaper production of copper bullion bul-lion a greater output In a given time and the installation of a method of treatment that has long been looked forward to but hardly expected In an interview published in the Salt Lake Herald Samuel Newhouso the millionaire mining man says You are now at liberty to say tot me that the Fink process of smelting ores is a demonstrated commercial success You can make the statement just as strong as you like It will be Hard to exaggerate what thin statement state-ment means There is no question of Its amounting to a revolution in the art of smelting it Is a triumph in the science of metallurgy that must command worldwide attention The process will be tko means of making mining profitable in hundreds 1 of places and under innumerable con dltlona where and under which profit making Is now impossible I havo waited with as much patience pa-tience as possible for the tests of the process that would justify mo in declaring de-claring myself satisfied 1 have watched watch-ed the plant in operation I have seen it make splendid high grade copper matt in a few minutes time and 1 have listened to each report as it ha been made to me with almost breathless breath-less l anticipation and It has been a supreme source of gratification me that at no time has the furnace Itself Leen at fault for any delay In other words the only difficulties that have been encountered have been caused through imperfections In the naturally natural-ly crude appliances tha have had to Lo used in working out thq mechanical mechani-cal features of the adaptation of the method And even these have presented pre-sented no problem that could not be overcome in a few minutes to a few hours Now I am absolutely convinced that every claim of Mr Fink is to be more than realized in the actual operation oper-ation of his process and I am going to organize a company that will ex flolt the process all over thoj mining world The details of this organization organiza-tion have not been worked out yet It may call for separate organizations to care for the business In different countries and in different fields and ono thing Is certain no time will be lost In getting ready for business I am going to Now York and upon my return at the end of the month I ehall likely be ready to tell you more about my plans In this respect |
