New Quartz Crushing Process Promises Low Mining Cost
The Washington correspondent reports a new quartz processing method by Walker & Co. of Philadelphia. The complete outfit costs under $6,000 with royalties, and ore treatment could yield up to $200 per ton, vastly cheaper than current methods. The system uses a tall three-chambered iron cylinder with quicksilver, producing bullion in about four hours, and is claimed to save five sixths of present expenses. Senator Jones will view its workings in Philadelphia this week.
