That is, the respective mullers being of the same diameter, same weight, seme hardness, and running at the same velocity, “The Excelsior Grinder and Amealgamator’ will reduce one hundred and seventy-seven tons of ore, the Flint Bottomed Pau ninetyeight tons, and the Conical Pan one hundred and ten tons to the same degree of fineness in the same tine. The wear to the Shoes and Dies at their grinding surfaces in the Excelsior Grinder and. Amalgamator, is perfcetly uniform, thus securing evenness of rednetion to the pulp, as well as stcadiness of motion to the muller. Uniform wear of the grinding plates has been attained in no other than that of the Tractory form—nor can it be. Another property of excellence in this machiue is that the metal or substance to be amalgamated passes direct from the grinding surfaecs into the quicksilver ; thus excluding the possibility of its becoming coated with any foreign substances, after having heen burnished, It is truthfully said “that the Tractory-formed Pan as a Grinder has no cqual, and as an Amalgamator no superior,” As a whole, it is fur superior to any other pan in use.
