A FASCINATING FIELD
* Metallurgy offers a fascinating field for the engineer
as well as for the investor who- will follow its lead. Some
mines have “wasted” ore up to $20 or even $50 a ton be
cause it could not be handled by the older, cruder meth
ods. Now these ores are real bonanzas. Mining and
metallurgy offer a career for thousands of ambitions
young men—and the mills they will build and operate will
furnish markets for thousands of farms that now wonder
where they will sell their stuff.
LOW COST COPPERS ARE GREATEST PRODUCERS
The mine which can produce copper at the lowest
cost per unit is the mine which today has the largest out*
put, comparatively speaking, says the Denver Financial
Record, and is making the most money. Domestic con
sumption of copper has doubled within the last four
years and the foreign demand is growing greater daily.
Copper mining officials look for a gradual improvement
in the industry.
It might be interesting to mention in this connection
that vastly improved methods are being developed. In
one mining town, slag discarded several years ago is
being reworked and an additional 10 to 15 per cent copper
are removed, indicating that the new process, while sim
ple, is far more thorough and more productive than form
er methods. Experiments are almost completed indicat
ing that copper ore will, within a short time, be taken
thru all the refining processes at the smelting plants in
Arizona and New Mexico.
Improved methods of production, efficiency in min
ing, smelting and concentrating the product, and com
plete handling ready for manufacturing processes seems
to be the keynote in the copper industry today.
Altogether now; “Oh how we miss the weekly boat
service.”
