Rockland group wary on smelter plan in Slocan mining area

Mining news notes Jay P Graves holds Rockland eight claims on Right-Mile Creek and says a smelter will not be built until development proves merit. Entries record Copper Bell on Barrett creek work certificate, Rosalia transfer, and a sale to McFarlane and Macarlane. Payne strike yields 125 ounces silver and 60 percent lead per ton, boosting mine life. Tamarac group bond lifted and Spokane owners plan spring work, with 20 men and road to Springer road.

Smelter Tariff Cuts Rates For Ore Grading

The Miner reports changes in smelter grading on silver lead ores with rates dropping from 4 to 3 dollars per ton and a stricter scale based on lead and zinc content. Ore with 20 percent lead becomes the basis, with 20 cents per added lead percent per ton. zinc above eight percent adds 50 cents per ton per extra percent. The shift aims to encourage mining amid depressed metal prices.

Smelter Changes Pay Schedule to Limit Ore Speculation

Smelters adopt a payment system paying 90 percent of the purchase price on delivery and the balance later to curb ore speculation. The policy links smelting rates to lead prices, adjusting as lead moves toward January levels, benefiting miners if silver rises but limiting losses if it falls, until January price conditions are restored.
