product of the mine averaged $38.78
a ton, a remarkably high grade. LOW GRADE ORE PAYS
BEST AT UTAH MINE
By GAIL MARTIN
Salt Lake City, Aug. 1—Some interesting and valuable facts concerning Utah non-ferrous mining are
brought out by a study of the rePorts made to the state board of
equalization by Utah companies.
The first of these is that the most
money in Utah was made in 1929
as in every other year by the Utah
Copper Co. from treating the lowest
grade ore mined in the state. Utah
Copper, with an ore containin Igess
value than coal or a gross of $2.99
a ton, amassed a total gross yield of
$53,125,300 from the mining of
17,724100 tons of ore.
The richest ore was shipped by
Loeffler Palmer from his “one man”
Rube mine in the Deep Creek dis-'
trict, Gold Hill, Utah. Palmer operates most of the time alone. He
mines narrow seams of gold quartz.
A graduate engineer, assayer and exPert miner of wide experience, he is
able to clean up a tidy sum each
year. During 1929 his Product had
an average per ton value of $105.20
His mining cost. was $27.10, the
highest in the state supplying proof
for the mining axiom that the higher .
rade the product the hiher will be
the cost of mining.
Utah’s only other gold mine reporting net proceeds jig the Eureka ,
Standard of the Tintic Standard .
Mining Co. The Eureka Standard’ sg .
product averaged $23.03 in gold with
mining costs of $11.03 a ton.
Next to the Utah Copper the largest producers
were two silver-lead .
Mines, the Silver King Coalition

erage of $34.08 a ton.
‘The Bingham Prospect, the Ps A.
Hogle property, shipped the highest
grade product from Bingham. Bingham Prospect ore averaged $22.79
during 1929.
shippers with regard to value of
Park Utah third. However, in the
Product. New Quincy was second and
surpassed other Park City mines.
Some remarkably. low mining costs
were attained during 1929 by Tintic
Mines. Centennial Eureka costs were
but $1.74 a ton and Empire Mines
$3.43 a very low average for this
type of mining.
Tintic Standard costs amounted to
$12.08 for the year, North Lily to
$8.77 a ton and Silver King Coalition
$3.57 a ton. Utah Copper with a cost
of 44c a ton was, of course, the lowest cost producer in Utah. Bingham
Prospect’s cost amounted to $8.78 a
ton,
Utah Copper led with net proceeds
of $26,526,766, or $16.37 per share
and dividend disbursements for the
year were $16.37.
Silver King Coalition had the largest net proceeds total of the silverlead mines, this item amounting to
$1,726514 or $1.41-a share. Dividends of $1.20 a share were paid,
leaving 21¢e a share for sunplus. Incidentally, it might be noted that
the Silver King Coalition was the
only company to keep its dividend
disbursements within the compass of
its net proceeds.
Tintic Standard’snet proceeds
amounted to $1,190,639 or $1.03 a
