MAGNA MILL RESUMES OP-ERATION OP-ERATION The Bingham and Garfield Railroad Co. transports about 1000 tons of ore daily to the Magna mill of the Utah Copper Co., it is understood by the end of this month, the capacity will be brought up to 2,000 tons per day. The Utah Copper Co. in July decided to convert the Magna Mag-na mill from a table concentration concentra-tion to a flotation plant which necessitated the removal of a large number of vanners and replacing re-placing by Magna type Janney oil flotation machines. In present practice the ore is put through rolls and tube mills. Garfield and Wilfley tables are used. The material containing mineral values not recovered by table concentration is conveyed frif treatment to the Janrrey flo- tation cells.
