HISTORY OF COMSTOCK MINES
IS TOLD IN THE CARSON NEWS
In 1859, 1860 and in 1861, up toi
|the building of the quartz mills on j
^he Carson river, the millowners!
charged f 40 a ton for the reduction!
of the Comstock ores, and insured a!
return of at least 40 per cent of the
assay value.of the ores, and returned j
to the mining companies and minersj
an average of 60 per cent, says the |
Carson News. After the erection of
the mills on the river, the price of |
reduction was reduced to $25 a ton;
and this price held for a few years,'
and then it was reduced to $15 a
ton, then to $9 a ton, and then to j
$7.50, which price remained station- j
ary during the glory days of Com-,
stock. Returns on assay values in-,
creased very slowly, and until the!
cyanide process was discovered, larg-1
er returns than 85 per cent were very j
scarce. The mill owners invariably j
kept the tailings. Extracting 65 perj
cent of the value of the ore would|
leave 35 per cent in the tailings. This!
calculation led many into the belief,
that the tailings from the ores first
worked contained 3 5 per cent of the*
assay value of the ore reduced, and
they invested their money in tailings;
reduction plants in accordance with
their calculations. No values ap
proximating such percentage were
ever found, although the reduction of;
tailings has been profitable and is
still profitable, and a very important
industry.
From assays made of tailings re
duced from 1859 to the present day
show that they contain about 20 per
cent less than they should, the calcu
lation being based upon the original
reports of the assay value of the ores
from which they came..
Where is that 20 per cent? From
the beginning the mills were owned
by men who controlled the mines,
whether the owned the majority of
the stock or not. These men dealt
with themselves as owners of the
mills and managers of the mines and
mining companies, and it may be that
they reported an extraction of 20
per cent less than they actually ob
tained from the ores reduced.
Before the discovery of invention
of the cyanide process for the sep
aration of the noble metals from
their matrix, there were two pro
cesses generally used. the pateo
process and smelting. The pateo
process is the oldest. The Mexicans
used to break up the ore with ham
^mer and sledge and spread it on a
’ hard noor within an inclosure, and
turn a lot of heavily shod mules on
it, and whip and cuss the mules at
a lively pace around the ring (the
Spanish lahguage being prolific with
hard cuss words) until the ore was
pulverized, or granulated at best,
and then shoveled into amalgamating
pans and settlers, into which quick
silver was introduced to catch the
gold and silver, and then the mass
retorted and molded into bricks. This
was the pateo or foot process—
stamping with feet. The Mexicans
also used arastras, which consisted
of spreading the ore in a small in
closure and hitching a mule to a long
beam, which was attached to two
heavy rocks of hard formation, and
dragged around the ring over the ore
until it was pulverized, and then
drawn off for amalgamation. This
system, which is hardly different
from the pateo process, brought bet
ter results because it pulverized the
ore better, and released the metals
from their matrix better. Then came
the stamp mill, which is nothing dif
ferent from the pateo process, ex
cept as to its greater efficiency. It is
really a pateo process, stamping the
ore with stamps weighing from 600
to 900 pounds and crushing the ore
in closer confined batteries, instead
of stamping and crushing the ore
with mules' feet. The amalgamation
process is the same. The general re
sults from the reduction of free mill
ing ores by the pateo process has al
ways been approximately the same,
depending upon the intelligence and
ability of the miilmen, but depend
ing upon the honesty of the mill
operators.
The first ores reduced from the
Mexican mine at Virginia City were
reduced at Ophir and “patoed” oi
stamped and crushed and pulverized
by mules as above described. The
mules cost on an average of $150
each, and they could "stand on their
feet” only about three months, owing
to the chemicals used during the
stamping process, when they would
be shot and put out of their misery.
The Mexican mill on the Carson river
is the first mill constructed on the
river. The water wheel that turned
its machinery was built by a man
named Riley, who constructed sev
eral other mill wheels below the
Mexican mine at Virginia and the
Mexican mill on Carson river were
so named from the fact that two
Mexicans were the first workers of
the Mexican mine at Virginia and
constructors of the Mexican mill and
ditch and dam on the Carson river

Five Inches of Snow
The recent touch of winter which
of the state left five inches of snow
nipped the vegetables in many parts
