TIN.
Semo Facte About the Tin Resource*
of North and South Carolina.
Win. J*. ^Cornell of Lincointon. N. C.,
has addressed the foHowing communication
to the Manufacturers Record:
Ydur journal Is so brimful of enthusiastic
ofltirtifsrti' and promise for
the many and varied possibilities and .
Interests of the southern states that I
am hopeful that my "vision" on the fol- f
lowing subject wi'l elicit your Interest
and that you will help me awaken the ,
Interest of the sputh In general, and of (
the people directly Interested in parti- ,
cular, through the power of The Manu- ,
D nnnr/1
LOAskUA VIO AAWVAWt (
I refer to this tin bolt, which ex- <
tends from Lincolnton, N. C., to Gaff- J
ney, ? >. C. The filling in of a part of .
a groat national need is possible on ^
this belt, I firmly believe.
The tJhtted Spates imports upwards ,
of $60,000,000 worth of metallic tin i
per year. In 191? it imported 72,166
tons of tin and produced only 50 tons. |
I have* yearly reports of many of the ^
world's tin mines, several of which are (
very similar to this from our'govern- ,
ment: "Mineral resources of the Unit- (
ed Rtates, 1917, part I (pages 63-73), {
published September' 16, 1918." On ,
page 70 occurs tlje following: ,
"The largest dredging operator is <
Malayan Tin Dredging (Ltd.). which
during the fiscal year 191G-17 worked ,
3,14l400 cubic yards of gravel. ) {
Freni this gravel 976 short tons of t
cassiterite concentrates wore obtain- ^
ed, an average of 0.C2 pound to the ,
cubic yard, equivalent to 0.43 pound of
metallic tin to the cubic yard. The {
profit for the year was 32,353 pounds
a 1K< neit t
VHUUUl *XU.l,IU\l/, 11 Will miivii
of 24.200 pounds (about $121,000) were
paid." (Parenthesis mine.)
Flgurfcrf In* tons, takihg 20 cubic
feet, to the ton of^dried ore. this lo
equivalent. to only 0.4C pound concentrate
per ton.and 0.31 pound tin per
tbrfXAYttr consider their profits' i
They have to work 14,135 tons per
d,ay, , whereaa the ores on this belt,
judging from the average of 5,299 tons
milled here/ flaring the past 10 years
(note the sfnaM bhsis of operations),
will. a.va>*age 10.25 pounds concentrates
per ton, against their 0.46
pound. Over 20 times as rich!
to ptoduhe tlie same amount of
concentrates per day we would have to
rfline only 650 tone, as' against their
14,135 tons pe> day. Also, all the proir^n^t
cnglnecy-^ who hove\ visited
our property (ahd they have been
cotqlpK, quite frequently lately) have
said- that we lost at least 50 per cent
of our values in this very poorly con- )
structcd ahd defietontly equipped mill,
and probably much more than 50 per
cefltV This argues that these tin deposits
should under efficient treatmeet,
yield over 20 pounds of concentrates
to the ton, or over 50 times as
n#uch~as-"the ores which are yicldfng 0
sidtl handsome returns in the Malay a
djfttrict.
Dredging is a cheap way of handling
dirt, I know, but if our ores do,
afcfy am firmly of the belief, run a one
per cent average (great quantities run
this, and some up to 17 per cent1), M
wc would only have to move 325 tons
pit <day to handle the same values as
their 14,135 tons carry, and one steam
shqxel drege which to get there and
nimble and keep up, must cost a
great deal more than a shovel here
wbultl. :' ; 1 1
' Tho ore bpdics between here and
C.afThey arc enormous, and could stand
for years a dally tonnage of 10,000 to
20,900. r# '
Our people owning and interested in
tljqpf tin properties, have novor, so
far as I can learn, looked at this question
in the right light. These arc ho
high-grade ore bodies, but enormous
lnttf.cr.ulp detiosita which must be ?
w as are all other large low- j |
grade bodies like copper, phosphate
ioOk* etc., in the world, e. g., on a {
large tonnage basis. r
Vrtere Is a $70,000,000 demand and ]
every reason why this section of the |
eovifc should go after Its supply, and ,
no reason that I can see why it doesn't ]
r except lack of knowledge of the true
facts on tin. j
COroperation between the owners of (
the tin-bearing l^nds between here r
'. anft0affney could easily result in great j
mutual advantages. A very little sacrifja^
on the part of each, a few hours r
for a conference to start things, and
the ^all could easily be set rolling. ,
I haven't mentioned the by-prod- ,
ucts which would be secured with com- ,
paratively little additional equipment, j
- all of which have their-values^ e. g., t
mrifca, good road gravels, kaolin, mtlle, |
ilmenite, tantalum, etc.
I Have given a great deal of study t
to the question and have worked on,
thoq?ht out. what 1 believe to be a f
-v nn.l r\ hnn/1
vucap UUU riuwiriii Hiviuuu vi iiouuling
these low-grade bodies. The concentrates
obtained from our ore is
very, high grade. I have very recently
stypped four tons, assay of one-half
day's run of which gave 74.13 percent
^ tin1 return (the average output of the
^ minCs of the world average less than
70 Jlfet cent tin, I believe), and I have 1
also .recently smelted some of our con- 1
centrates and obtained an analysis of 1
99.76 per cent tin from the metal. This '
shcrWa that our cassiterlte is equal in
purity to any produced anywhere.
I will cheerfully eo-operate in every '
way with any person or group of poo- '
pie wno win evince an interest in mis ,
very promising and vitally improtanl '
I subject, and believe 1 can give them 1
fcita and information worthy of very '
Pr ions consideration. '

"Guilty or not guilty."
She stood at the bar of Justice,
A creature wan and wild,
In form too small for a woman,
In features too old for a child;
For a look so worn and pathetic
Was stamped 011 her pale young
face,
It seemed long years of suffering
Must have left that silent trace.
"Your name," said the judge as he
eyed her , 1
With kindly look yet keen,
"Ic? " "Mary Maguire, if you
please sir."
"And your age?" "I am turned flf*
teen."
"Well, Mary," and then from a paper
lie slowly and gravely read? '
"You are charged here?I'm sorry to
say it? y
With stealing three loaves of bread.
"You look not like an offender.
And I hope that you can show
The charge to be false. Now answer
me,
Are you guilty of this or no?"
A passionate burst of weeping
Wa3 at. first her sole reply,
But she dried her tears in a moment.
And looked in the judge's eye:
"I will tell you just how it was, sir;
My father and mother aro dead,
And tny little brothers and slaters
Were hungry and asked me for
bread,
At first I earned it for them,
By working hard all day,
But scynehow the. times were hard, sir,
And the work all fell awny. .
/
"I cogld get no more employment;
The weather wan bitter cold.
The young ones cried and shivered?
Little. Johnnie's but four years old?
So what was I to t]o, sir?
I am guilty, but do not condemn!
I took?Oh was it stealing??
The bread to give to them!"
V
Bvery ma a In the court room,
Cray beard and. thoughtless youth,
Knew, on ho looked, upon her.
That the prisoner spoke the truth.
Out fjt>m their pocketn came ker
chiefs.
Out from their .eyes sprung tear3,
Out frm old, faded walletn
Treasures hoarddd for year3.
The judge's face wt:; a study.
The strangest you ever saw,
As he cleared his throat and murmured
?
Something about the law.
For one so learned in such mattera,
So wise In dealing with men.
He seemed, on a simple question,
Sorely puzzled just then.
Hut no one blamed him or wondered.
When at lost these words were
heard: >
"The sentence of this'young prisoner
Is for the present deferred!"
And no one blamed him oi* wondered,
When he went to her and smiled,
And tenderly led frofn the court room,
Himself, the guilty child!
