C. The\nBritish Columbia Mining Exchange\nand Engineering News\nVancouver, B.C., October, 1915 No. 5\nSTEED PLANT WANTED FOB B. C.\nThe Vancouver Board of Trade\nhave approached the Provincial Government with a view to obtaining\ntheir assistance should any reputable\ncompany undertake the establishment of a steel plant on -the Coast.\nMr. Nicol Thomson, chairman of\nthe mining committee, presented the\nfoUowing report to the government:\nBritish Columbia imported in 1912\napproximately 120,000 long tons of\niron and steel having a gross value of\napproximately $3,000,000. This province has abundant supplies of raw\nmaterial for the manufacture of all\nthe iron and steel required for British Columbia and the adjacent provinces and states, there being no iron\nand steel works on the Pacific coast\nbetween Alaska and Mexico, or west\nof the Rockies, so that the industry\nestablished here would have this field\nfor its market\nImportance of Russian Market.\nThe commitee has information that\nthe Russian market will be of great\nimportance in the development of the\nexport trade in iron and steel. Approximately 20,000 tons of iron ore\nfrom Texada Island in British Columbia was shipped to Port Townsend\nand San Francisco, and was used in\nthe construction of the United States\nbattleships \"Nebraska\" and \"Oregon\"\nand two Japanese battleships. The\nreports upon it were exceedingly\nfavorable, and gave highest satisfac-\nIron-Carrymg Ores.\nIn a paper read before the American Institute Mining Engineers, Mr.\nC C Jones stated that the ores of this\ncoast carry from 4 to 10 per cent\n\u25a0more iron than the standard Lake\nSuperior iron ores, and that the bulk\nof the tonnage is within Bessemer\nlimit for phosphorus. There is no\ncost of drying before transportation,\nand there is a saving of 10 per cent on\nthe freight charged on crude Lake\nSuperior ores. He estimates the present market for iron and steel products on the Pacific coast to be 923,-\n000 tons per annum, and states that if\nthe manufacturing of cast-iron pipes,\noil pipe, railway steel and shipbuilding\nis undertaken the a:\nsteel required will\nt that the c\n! approximately\nurn. He points\nDn ore delivered\nCost of Production.\nThe cost of producing pig\nBritish Columbia has been es\nby Dr. Lindeman at $16 per ton; by\nSeaver at $12.25 per ton, and by Wil-\nmot at $12 to $17 per ton, according\nto quality. The cost of producing pig.\niron at Irondale, Washington, was\n$13.75 per ton. The average cost of\npig iron at Pittsburg is $15.30 per\nton, as given by Judge Geary before\nthe ways and means committee of the\nUnited States House of Representatives. The present cost of United\nStates pig iron in Vancouver is $27.50\nper ton, and of Eglington (England),\n$33 per ton. The price of this, under\nnormal conditions, would be $22.50\nand $27 per ton, respectively.\nThe cost of a one hundred ton per\nday unit blast furnaces, including rolling mill, converting plant and coking\nplant would be approximately $1,800,-\n000. In our opinion a steel plant\ncapable of supplying the local market\nand the immediate export trade could\nbe put down here at a capital of approximately $5,000,000, and we recommend that the provincial government be approached to assist in some\ntangli'ble way any bona fide company\nthat would establish such a plant here.\nGRANBY CONSOLIDATED CO.\nAt the annual meeting of the\nshareholders of the Granby Consolidated Copper Mining, Smelting and\nPower Company net profits for the\nyear ended June 30th were shown to\nbe $929,165. Sales of- 25,746,050\npounds of copper were made at an\naverage price of 15.87 cents; the\naverage cost was 10.66 cents. There\nwas realized from copper sales $4,-\n086,441. The production for the year\namounted to 26,638,912 pounds of\ncopper, 377,881 ounces of silver and\n31,388 ounces of gold. Hereafter\nquarterly reports will be issued by the\ncompany.\nThe balance sheet as of June 30th\ndiscloses total assets of $21\nof which cash and metal on hand represented $1,756,543; accounts recei-\nable\ni $568,465;\n$664,680, and the surplus $3,668,\nThe Granby Consolidated Mining,\nSmelting and Power Company has :\nstalled a new furnace at its plant\nAnyox, making the capacity 3000 tc\nevery 24 hours.\nThe Consolidated Mining and\nSmelting Company, with smelter at\nTrail, has the biggest payroll in its\nhistory.' Eight hundred men are employed at the smelter and at the Fife\nquarries, wages aggregating between\n$160,000 and $170,000 per month.\nThe Minister of the Interior, Hon.\nDr. Roche, has intimated that while\nhe is unable to grant a further general extension of time for payment\nof lease rentals he has decided:\n1. To protect leases held by men\nenlisted in the Canadian forces.\n2. To protect leases where development has been commenced.\n3. That in cases of individuals or\ncompanies holding large number of\nleases portions of their holdings may\nbe dropped and the amount paid previously on the leases now dropped\nshall count towards further payments\non leases retained.\n4. That no leases will be cancelled\nautomatically but the case of each\nleaseholder given consideration.\nIn all cases leaseholders should\ncommunicate with the Minister of the\nInterior, making, if possible, a payment on account as evidence of good\nfaith.\nAnnouncement of the above fair\nand reasonable regulations will be received by all leaseholders with the\nliveliest satisfaction, and the B.

This could\nbe earned in about four months.\nThese figures are very encouraging\nand it only requires the united efforts\nof the citizens of B. C. to provide the\nnecessary funds.

NEWS\nBRITISH COLUMBIA\nTHE MINERAL PROVINCE OF CANADA\nGold, Silver, Lead, Copper, Coal, Coke, Iron, Zinc, Platinum, Etc.\nThe aggregate value of the Mineral production of British Columbia is\n$486,822,745\nAs follows: Placer Gold, $73,269,603; Lode Gold, $81,595,516; (Total Gold, $154,865,119); Silver, $37,709-\n282; Lead, $31,468,462: Copper, $86,939,370; Zinc, Iron, etc., $2,198,949: Coal and Coke: $149,814,462;\nBuilding Stone, Brick, Cement, etc., $23,827,101.\nThe substantial progress of the Mining Industry of the Province is strikingly exhibited in the following,\ntable, which shows the value of production for successive five-year periods: i\nFor all years to 1894 inclusive $ 88,904,199\nFor five years, 1894-1899 46,906,258\nFor five years, 1899-1904 f... 90,391,394\nFor five years, 1904,1909 121,618,733\nFor five years, 1909-1914 139,002,161\nAggregate value of Mineral Production Jr. . $486,822,745\nA GREAT MINING REGION\nBritish Columbia is pre-emdnently A GREAT MINING REGION. Its mines already yield virtually all\nthe lead mined in Canada, more than one-half the Gold, nearly three-quarters of the Copper, fully one-\ntpsairtev of the Coal and about one-tenth of the Silver, and a share of some other minerals. This high rank\nhas heen reached notwithstanding that prospecting of even the most desultory character has been carried\nout only on a small, almost insignificant, part of the area, and this chiefly in districts lying south of the\nman* Hne of the Canadian Pacific Railway.\nMINERALS \"WIDELY DISTRIBUTED THROUGHOUT BRITISH COLUMBIA.\nCOAL occurs in vast quantities. The recently pub lished estimate of a well-known Dominion geologist\n. places the coal content of the various known coal areas of the Province at: Anthracite, 61,000,000 tons;\nbituminous, 39,674,000,000 tons; lignite, 490,000,000 tons; total, 40,225,000,000 tons. Coal mines are being\nworked! in Southeast Kootenay, Similkameen, Nicola Valley, Vancouver Island, and others are being opened\non Queen Charlotte Islands, Skeena River, and other widely-separated parts of the Province.\nGOLD is also found, practically all over the Province. The largest known Placer Gold fields are in\nCariboo and! Atlin districts. An official estimate of gold-bearing gravels in Quesnel division of Cariboo\ndistrict is 2,500,000,000 to 3,000,000,000 cubic yards, containing $300,000,000 worth of gold. Lode Gold is\nnow obtained chiefly from mines in Rossland, Nelson, Boundary, and Similkameen districts. The 6oast district gives every promise of also yielding much lode gold when more mining shall be done in it.\nSILVER in comparatively large quantity comes from Slocan, and Boundary mines. Lardeau, Rossland,\nNelson and Coast district mines also produce silver. Much more is expected from mines now being developed\nin Portland Canal and Observatory Inlet and the Skeena a&id Omineca districts. I\nLEAD is mined in greater amount in East Kooten ay than any other parts, but Slocan, Ainsworth, Nelson\nand Lardeau mines also produce this metal. Skeena district gives promise of producing lead ere long.\nCOPPER mines in Boundary district are the largest producers of this metal in Canada. Rossland and\nCoast districts also yield copper. Kamloops and Similkameen are both known to have large deposits of\ncopper ores awaiting utilization.\nZINC AND IRON will yet become important contributors to the mineral production of British Columbia,\nthere being much ore containing one or other of these metals, in various pa\/rts of the Province.\nOTHER MINERALS occur, though little has yet been done to utilize them. Among those found are:\nCinnabar (Mercury), Pyrites, Scheelite, Molybdenite, Mica, Gypsum, Magnesite, Petroleum, etc.\nREDUCTION WORKS include Copper and Lead Smelter. Stamp Mills, Silver-Lead and Zinc Concentrating Mills, Electrolytic Lead Refinery, etc. The largest Copper Smelter in the British Empire is that of the\nGranby Company at Grand Forks, B. C. Smelters and Mills are equipped with modern machinery and metal-\nsaving appliances. >\nCAPITAL\u2014Capital can now find here many excellent opportunities for investment, as the value placed\non mines and undeveloped properties has reached a reasonable basis. If proper business care is used, and .the\nexperiences of competent men utilized these investments should be safe as well as profitable.\nMINERAL LANDS\u2014Mineral lands are open to lo cation to any person over 18 years of age, who has\nobtained a frees miner's certificate, and perfect title to lode, claims can be easily secured after $500 worth of\nwork has been done per claim.
