[The Phoenix Pioneer and Boundary Mining Journal]
BC Historical Newspapers
Devoted to the interests of the Boundary Mining District. The Phoenix Pioneer was published in Phoenix, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia, and ran from April 1898 to May 1916. The Pioneer was published by the Pioneer Publishing Company, which was managed by W. B. Wilcox (from 1899-1908) and Thomas Alfred Love (from 1908-1911). On August 12th, 1910, the headquarters of the Pioneer burned down, together with a large portion of the town of Phoenix itself, and the paper consequently suffered serious financial difficulties. On April 11th, 1911, the Pioneer was sold to Gilbert Kay, who published and edited the paper until May 1916. The paper was published under a variant title, the Phoenix Pioneer and Boundary Mining Journal, both from 1903-1910 and from 1911-1912.

BOUNDARY SHIPPED 380,000 TONS IN 1901 Exceeds All Previous Records in British Columbia. Fiom figures fui'nislied to the Pioneer by the manugement of the dilTeicut shipping mines in the Boundary it appears that during the year 1901 there were no less than 380,000 tons of ore shipped and treated by home smelters. 249.29.6TONS SMELTED Boundary Smelter Record for theYear I90i. During the year 1901 the building iccord ofjl'hoenix shows that business and:residence structures costing over $100,000 were'orec'ted here. This is not u bad showing, considering everything. A number of these were substantial business blocks, showing the faith ol the owners in the permanency of the chief mining camp of the Boundary. The numbei of residences also inc.eased by a large percentage, and the hillsides ofthe camp are now faiily dotted with comfortable homes of mincis and business men. ' 'Ihe most ex]>ensive building, of coutse, was the Bank Block, erected at a cost of $16,000 by Messrs, Graves and .Williams. .The McMillan Block, op|)osite, costing-all told $8,060, came next, and it is probably the Lest constructed frame building in the Boundary. A number of those wishing to build.homes were assisted in this laudable endeavor by the Canadian Biik- beck Investment and Savings Co., which has loaned out about $15,000 forthis* purpose. The improvements in the way of new buildings have been scattered all over the city, and were' not confined to any one section. In addition to the actual cash spent in buildings, the city itself, has spent about $12,000 in street - improvements, and the Phoenix Water' Supply Co., Ltd,, has expended close to $25,000 in putting in its plant. lln detail, < the new. buildings, with tlje cost of each, *as far as 'could be ascertained, were'as follows School House '.-., Phoenix General Hospital...

Now that there is snow enough, Contractor Coates has begun hauling ore again to the siding near Boundary Falls, for shipment to the Greenwood smelter. He averages about twelve tons pa day; .

In other columns ortnis issue of the Pioneer will be found "the figures in regard to the amount of ore shipped from Boundary mines, and also the tonnage of oie treated at the two smelters operating in this district. It will be noted that thd shipments average more than 1,000 tons daily, and that the smelters handled all told nearly the same amount of ore. In all the large camps the tendency has been lo increase the tonnage, for it has been more and more realized that the low grade ores of the Boundary could only be mined at a fair profit by handling them in large volume. As a result we find that the chief shippers���tne Granby mines, the Mother Lode and the B. C. mine, in as many different camps���have increased their ore output scveial times over. Taking the different sections of the Boundary by camps, we find that Phoenix camp, as it has been for years, still retains the lead for the amount of development done as well as for the tonnage of ore sent out. In this camp for the last year the Gianby mines��� the Old Ironsides, Knob Hill and Victoria���have been steadily woiking, without letup, except lor holidays, the development being fai ahe.id of the requirements foi shipping. About four times as much ore was sent out from these amines this year as last, the figures for 1901 being 233,424 tons. In Phoenix camp also the Brooklyn group has been steadily working the greaetr part of the year, but is.now idle; pending negotiations for the transfer of the property. The ore bodies have been proved to ��� be much more extensive than hitherto known by the work of the last year, and the group will give a good account of itself in the near future, The Snowshoe, in this camp, has been worked uninteiiuptecjly,and has shipped 1,731 tons of ore in the last twelve months. It has been taken over by a strong nggiegation of Eng lish capitalists, and bids (air to forge well to the front in 1902, ' During the last year Deadwood camp has made an excellent showing, the banner mine' of the camp, the Mother Lode, having sent 011189,034 tons of ore during the year. Steady development has also gone on in.the Sunset, which, like the Mother Lode, has a splendid equipment. The Sunset is now in a shape to ship steadily, and will commence doing so shortly. During 1901 this mine sent out 802 tons. ��� In Summit campthe one mine that has worked without cessation is the B. C. mine, having sent out 47,405 tons of ore during the last year. One 04 two other properties have been worked at times during, the year, like R. Bell and Blue Bell, but at present the B. C. mine is the only one in operation. ���;' In Wellington carnp, riear Phoenix, ihe Winnipeg after reorganization, has f*f\\ |D| HVfaf* I ID worked steadily, and has shipp e V��V/Ul^Lll^lvJ Ui 1,040 tons of 01c. The Golden .jrown, adjoining the Winnipeg, was idle most of the year, but the company was re- oiganizcd late in iheycai, and is now being opeiated once moie, with ihe best of results anticipated. The Athelstan, in this camp worked for a lime eaily in the year, and shipped about 550 tons of or;, but is not now being opeiated. In Central camp the one mine working is the No. 7, which has shipped by wagon to the Greenwood smelter about 850 tons of ore. This is one of the promising miues of the camp. The Jewel, in Long Lake camp, has been woikcd intermittently, and has shipped some ore. The King Solomon, in West Copper camp, sent out a few hundred tons ol" lich oie, but no woik to speak of was done. Piom the West Pork countiy the Carmi shipped some high giadc ore by wagon, mid a nuin Xu:c.roC jiiu!I abiitiivnis .were ,inade from various mines throughout the district, that helped to swell the total for the year. Altogether, the results of the year have been most encouraging, the tonnage having increased lemaikably, and those closest in touch with ihe situation predict much greater things for the Boundary befoie the end of 1902. FURNACES Granby Smelter Closed Wednesday Night. REMAIN CLOSED ONLY ABOUT A WEEK Two Additional Blasts Will Give a Total Capacity of 1,400 Tons Daily���No Lay Olf at Mines Probable. TEN MILLIONS LAST YEAR Mineral Yield of Kootenay and Yale. REPRESENTED BY 827,990 TONS OF ORE Oover 12,000,000 Worth Wag Prodnced In the Boundary���Estimate Was Compiled By the Nelson Tribune. In order to couple up or connect the two hew furnaces at the Granby smelter, the works were closed last Wednesday night. It will probably require about.i' weckJ:iu -do iii't. wort;, when smelting will be resumed again iu the old furnaces, and a few days later the'entire plant, with a daily capacity of about 1,400 tons, will be in operation. This is the information given the Pioneer by Wm. Yolen Williams, the mine superintendent, who spent Thursday at the smelter, on his return from a trip to the coast. Mr. Williams also stated that he did not expect that the close down would make any difference in the working force at the mine, although shipments would have to be suspended, as the ore bins at the smelter are kept full all the time. In addition to this, he said '.here was so much other work that he wished to have done in the mines, that he expected to keep the large force of men ;it work on this, instead of laying them off. About the middle of the month the increase of ore shipments will commence, and will have to be maintained steadily to keep the smelter running. The smelter ore bins now have about 10,000 tons, and the mine ore bins neaily as much. The smelting record for the Boundary reduction works for the year just part is. a 'creditable one. With but two smellers running, and one of these but a little oyer;'ten months, there has been a total of almost 350, 000 tons of ore put through the fui- naces ofthe Boundary smelters since January i, 1901. Of this amount the Granby smelter at Grand Forks treated 230,828 tons, and the Mother Lode smelter at Greenwood treated some 118,448 tons. The latter concern however, did not begin smelting till 17th of February. Had the Mother Lode smelter put in the full year, the average would have been over 1,000 tons per day for the calendar year. The results as they are, however, are ample evidence of the growing importance of this industry in the Boundary, especially when it is remembered that nearly every ton of ore smelted was mined in the Boundaiy. There were a few small shipments from across the line, on the Colville reservation, but they did. not appreciably affect the final totals/' The subjoined tables will show the results by months for each of the smelters���at Grand Forks and Green- . wood. It will be noticed that gradually the amount pf ore treated each month has been growing, and now the daily treatment of the two concerns amounts to over 1,000 tons daily. The Granby smelter has been using two furnaces only, and the Mother Lode smelter one furnace.: Both concerns are. now preparing to double their capacity, and in the course of two or three weeks, if there, are no more delays, the combined capacity of both u'r'U ^"-'^j^o^-^on^^cl(utjvU-^.'.:.'.-������1 _.'..-:,-���..

Although accuiate data is not obtainable, .it is safe to appio.ximale the output.of the metalliferous mines of East and West Kootenay and Yale at $10,000,000 for the year 1.901-. This is a slight gain over the year 1900, notwithstanding the shutdown of the mines at Rossland because of the de inand ol the muckers for the same rate of wages paid in other camps. The mines in East Kootenay, owing to the fall iu the prices of le.'td and silver, also suspended operations early in the summer. The losses of Rossland and East Kootenay are offset by the gains made in the Boundary and the Slocan. Close on to 850,000 tons of ore in all were mined, and the aggregate value ($10,000,000) shows that the ore averages over $12 a ton, which is a pretty good average, seeing that the ores of the Boundary are low grade, probably the lowest grade of any ores in the world profitably treated by fire concentration. The figures, as prepared by the Nelson Tribune are as follows: Tons Rossland mines 800,000 Boundary mines 370,000 Nelson mines 110,000 Slocan mines 30,000 EastKootenav mines 15,000 Lardeau mines 2,800 All other camps 10,000 Ore for 1901 Estimated to be Worth Some $3,700,000. It is estimated that ore shipments from Rossland mines for the year 1901 amounted, to 279,133 toils, of a gr;;ss value of ��3,700,000, figuring at about $13 per ton.

HUGH8E McGUIRE, Prop James Ruthe'rfordi engineer in charge of the Laideau Valley Mines, Ltd., is taking 250 pounds of pre to England to lest by the,oil process off reduction. Experiments are being made on Snow- shoe ore by the oil iirocess, which seem likely to '.prove' successful. ��� Here is Mr, Rutherford's, "explanation'' of? the process: :��� - . ;,/-'.',,,';;. ';' The Elmore process of j concentration of ores by oil has already been investigated and favorably reported upon by several eminent metallurgists in iiuiojie and America. The. process as worked at the Ciladsir copper mines in Wales is as follows: The' rock from the'mine) after pass' ing through the usual stone breakers, is crushed in a pair of, Cornish rolls, and' run thence to two Huntington mills, wherein it is reduced to pass ih rough a 30 mesh screen, and issues iheretrom ,wiihjust| sufficient water to make it 'intb' a'/reely flowing pulp. .fc'romtheJIuiitington...mills, the..pulp passes directly into the open end of a horizontal rotating... drum, ��inside of which is fixed a helix with cross blades orbu'ekeisijiwhich lift up'the pulpitd a cerlain".height and dropnt again, at the saiiie^tinjej [Jropellingyt"forward';, to the opposite end of the drum, thus keep ing the pulp in constant agitation for the few seconds which are occupied in its progress-tlirough the drum. Kliidol Oil Used. With the pulp cis also admitted a sniall.iquantity,^of a thick,., sticky oil (ihe residueileltj ih'; the- itills of!the re filling of paraffine oil)^ This oil is, of course, subjected tothesame agitation as ,: the pulp, and is consequently tunibled 'about with it, and exercises the remarkable property of sticking to andbouying up the'"particles' of mineral that,are flpatingabout or "suspended iti the piilp;, but it'does not stick to or have any effect :whatever upon the particles of rock which are present in much greater number. The oil and piilp automatically' discharge from the opposite. end of- the, drum into a pointed box orspitzkasten, in which the tailings of rock at once settle down and flow off with the water at the bbt- tpm^whilsttlie ;oil {by reason of its biibyany,5 floats to the top and carries up with it, practically, all ihe values which the ore contained. "^'OllrlMlrAII Mliierrt. "From the top'of the pointed box the oil with its load of mineral flows off continualy to a specially constructed centrifugal machine, where the oil is extracted from the mineral which is left in the machine, the oil being once again ready for use For close extraction three mixing sylindersare sometimes used, the pulp passing from one to another after floating off.the oil., and,. collected mineinl, and receiving a fresh stream of oil in the next.niixer. ; ��� A second centrifugar machine is also found desiiable below the first to. separate the last of the oil and water from the concentrates"; The concentrates are left in the machine, practically dry and free from oil. Cheap Treatment of Copper Ores. Vaiious practical working tests have been made on ores from different parts of the woild, and the results show that the proce->s is capable of treating cerlain classes of ore, especially, copper ores, more economically, than any process of watei concentration yet known. The ecomical features of the process aie that no slimes ol ores which are lost in the water concentration are saved by this process. The percentage of recoveiy is equally good when treating slimes arid finely divided minerals, such as would largely pass away as float, in any ordinary process ol concentration by water over mechanical jigs and winners. Low grade copper ores, such as would carry about 2 per cent copper in ihe crude ore, can be made to pay through the application of this process. The ores of the Lardeau Valley Mines, Limited, are especially amenable to this process, and-from experiments already made, I have 110 doubt that they can be treated successfully on a laige scale, as they are really concentrating ores, and for this reason I am sending 250 pounds to London to be treated at the company's works. May Install an Elmore Plant. : While I was in London last 'fvtlj'I attended a meeting of the Tnstitute-bf Mining and Metallurgy, and heard a paper read on the process by Mr. .Elmore;-'with,whom I had a personal interview, and from whom 1 received a great deal of information. I have been watching the process very closely ever since. ���- A syndicate has been formed in London 10 exploit the process, and the rights have already been acquired for the United States, Mexico,' Canada and in European countries, and there is. 116'doubt whatever that the process will show a decided advantage over any system]of magnetic separation or water, concentration. ':;';'���'.>;���;.,��� ',-.'���''. ;: ; If this trial shipment now being forwarded to London pipves entirely satisfactory, the Laideau Valley Milies'. Limited, wilfinstall .i plant at the mines next summer; :'Z: FIGURES ON COPPER PRODUCTION (Jlveo Out at 1 Recent Meeting of the '..Producers. .. ��� The copper producers " of the United Slates recently held a very important meeting in New York city and the following figures of production and export were givoii out: United States copper production /or the lirst eleven months of 1901 was'1,211 tons less-than previous year.

Far away fields always look green ���and generally the farther away they are, the gieener they look. _In the Boundary country no one pretends that business conditions have been all that one could ask, and yet they mights be much worse. People come and people go���some are successful in the fight for a competence and others have indifferent sucess or none'-at all. The spirit of unrest, however, touches' the great imjority, to a greater or less degree , and they wander around the earth looking for something better than they now have. In this connection, the following letter was received by a gentlemen in l'hoeni.x, from a former Phoenician, who wished to try his luck eleswliere. It is worth reading: ���'"Mohave, Cau, 1)i:c. 20,1901. "As I could not get any employment near Vancouver, I went to Seattle, where I found times even worse than in Vancouver. So I came to.California and by so doing 1 made the biggest mistake in my life, as in every town I go to theie are at least So or 90 broken, men. In IJakerslield and Los Angeles there are at least 5,000 men who cannot find employment. I'hoenix is the best town in the whole western country, and as soon as 1 can earn money enough lo go back, i will go and stay there." JOE DERHAM General Blacksmith Special Attention to Horse Shoeing.

Beginning January-ist the rate has been raised from $2.50 per month for business 'phones to $4 per month, with a'rate of $3-for residences, the rates for party'lines being a trifle less. No one likes to have rates raised, but after all the new rates, for a good service, are not high in a mining country where the costs of maintainance are high. The attempt to introduce an opposition telenhone system in this part of the province was not a success. There was not business enough for two concerns, and the'weakest had to go to the wall. It is said that the Columbia Co., in its endeavor to establish such a opposition, in connection with its associated lines, sunk the comfortable sum.of close to $200,000���and its House and Lot for Sale on Old Ironsides Avenue, Reasonable amount down, balance monthly payments at 8 per cent per annum.
