Show UTAH LEH MINE IN BULLION wilon hs OF DOE development on large scale dialo discloses el wealth of good ore modern mill nearing completion in the show vind window dow of the Rich richfield fild reaper are displayed two log big pieces of ore and they certainly attract attra t attention all who P pis q our office let their eyes ret rest on the splendid specimens me n s and many come in to get a better look examine the ore judicially and ask the stereotyped question where does it come from the two depre samples amples are taken from a place in ane tr tunnel tu rinel of the mine of the utah lead coyn compan Payl situate up the grade in III bullion canyon a few miles in southwesterly direction from the old and once ver vcr I 1 Ti otaie hut but now somewhat dormant dorman t and sleepy sleep mining camp of marysvale mary Marys vale years ago in the eighties of the last century the mine which is lowthe now the utah lead but then was the bully boy was humming life and known a one of the largest producers of lead in the country countr the early developers and exploit exploiters r dug them elies deep into the intestines of the steep hill taking out the rich ore as al they found it and leavine the lower grades behind consa considering dering them abc worthless Korth less because of the fact that the metallurgical processes e i at enat t time te e mere not dew developed loped to the degree agree of efficiency that they are in our day and that now jiow males make large low loa grade deposits more valuable than and therefore les le s reliable and less permanent high grade strikes the pre ent w workings of the utah lead of which Al michael ichael barnett is the branager have all the ear marks of permanency anti and the deposits are of a size gize that impresses c itself eren een upon the mind of the layman like the writer of this article that the writer is a layman is to a certain degree reassuring to the readers of the article for two reasons in the first place the reaper is a new s sheet and not a trade paper and its I 1 readers expect to find therein interesting facts ani and not technical details second the readers wont have to struggle with terms understood tood doyil hy by the profession we shall hall not annoy tho those thoe e who read the these thee e columns with sto winces cleel crosscuts cucut cross cut cuts hanging walls nas and that sort of thing that is highly significant to ane proem non al but bat means next to nothing to the average newspaper reader the sum and substance of what they a ant to know is the fact that the mine of the utah lead company is iq a great thing that promises es to be a source of wealth to the owners and a source our of what this country so 0 o badly needs to wit a steady payroll for years and ears to come after having asked where does it come from the next question invariable variable is what is ita it we shall hall try to answer ans aris thi this rue es a tion just ut as a s intelligibly to the layman as the description of tre te mine the one me of the two pieces di planed comes come from the wall all of vie the big vein the other is vein matter itself the wll il matter is rich enough to be classified as shipping ore while abile the other piece I 1 is exceptionally rich containing sixty percent or more of lead enough zin zinc c to be reco recovered cred without a penalty by the smelter several ounces of silver and a small na nall amount of gold while I 1 e cju this is enough of a variety for ann boly body to wish he had it it ih bj b far not all ail that IA is wound ui in commercial quantities in t the he mines mine of the utah lead company anere is for instance one element found lately in goodly amounts antimony then there are beautiful mill yellow crystal 1 imbed ded in oft pockets of iron which A aich have bae igen been found to be molybdenum there abre is iron enough to make the ore desirable for fluxing flexing purport there is copper and pockets R of rich gold anil and silver and so on the whole mountain so 0 to speak is 11 nuner alimi ind the vast development delop ment of the workings wor kingg shows different ores and ami different dil ferent combinations of

promising ore the equipment of the mine I 1 is yen en thorough and the latest addition to the black blacksmith mith shop hop for instances s is I 1 I 1 a teel steel sharpening machine macune that is a little wonder onder of speed accuracy and efficiency the mill is situated a short di distance tance from the tunnel entrance do down n hill and connected with the mine by b a I 1 small spur railroad with a gasoline engine of the autor automobile noblie type as locomotive e power in the small cars attached to this locomotive the ore is taken to the bin bins above aboe the mill and by gravity conveyed to the crushers awl and grinder and finally to the in mill ill proper which is of the most modern design its main part is a flotation plant of four cells cell with provision to bp enlarged to
