In 1829 gold was discovered in Georgia, which soon became one of the leading producers of the country. The production of gold in the United States before 1849 was insignificant, as the total production up to that time was less than 1,200,000 ounces. In the decade 1831 to 1840 the average annua) production was only 31,800 ounces 5 per cent of the world total. Immediately after the diseivery of gold in California. in 1848 production increased so rapidly that in 1849 ihe United States became ing world producer. By 1853 the production had exceeded 3,144,000 ounces. In six years production had been multiplied 73 times, During the perlid 1851 to 1855 the United States produced nearly 45 per cent of the world tital, At this time the production of the Western States completely dwarfed the output of the Appalachain district, whose productiin since 1848 has been relatively unimportant. From 1853 on clined steadily until 1862, due to the Civil War and the’ exhaustion of the known, easily worked, richer placer deposits in the West. The priduction of Australiau surpassed that of the United States from 1855 to 1863+ The increase noted up to 1866 was due largely to diccoveries jin Nevada and Montana, but follobwing this there was a_ recession to 1,619,000 ounces in 1875. At about -his time the production § of the Comstock lode was rapidly increasing and contributed a large part of the increase in United States production from. 1873 to 1878. Thereafter, productios again declined to 1,451,000 ounces. in 1883, the lowest since 1848. During the 65-year period 1881 to 1885 the United States produced 31 per cent of the world’s gold supply. From 1892 to 1900 there was a remarkable increase in production which almost equaled the rise occasioned by the discovery of gold in Califérnia tn 1848. During this period yearly production increased 140 per cent; it amounted X30 600 ounces in 1900, due largely to the discovery of the famous Cripple Creek deposits of Colorado production dethe lead. to 3,-]° what irregular Increase in production in the United States from 1900 to 1915, asa the deposits of Alaska, Goldfield, and Tonopah were developed. The peak production of the United States was made in 1915, when 4,823,762 ounces of gold was produced; but maximum 5-year period production was from 190€¢ to 1910, when yearly production averaged nearly 4,600,000 ounces— 22 per cent if the world total. As a result of inflation during and immedigtely after the World War resulting in a decline in the relative value of gold, production dropped 60 per cent for the period 1915 to 1920. Since 1920 there has been a tendency to further decreases in production, although it is not as marked as in the preceding period. From 1921to 19 average annual 25 lie output was 2,369,000 ounces, 14 per cent of the world total, as comparedwith an average of 4,557,000 ounces of in the period 1911 to 1915. The 1927 output was 2,117,000 ounces, 11 per cent of the world total. Since 1906 the United States has been the second largest producer of gold in the world, but If present irends continue the production of Canada may soon surpas that of the United States. In 1927 the output of Transvaal, the largest contributer, was nearly five time : as much as-the.--United--States;while -Canada’s productfon was about 85 per rent of the United States output. The principal districts from which gold is now produced in the United States are the Whitewood distriét, South Dakota; the Marysville, Oroville, Folsom, Grass Valley, Nevada City and Jackson districts, California; the Cripple Creek, Eureka, San Miguel, and California districts, Colorado; the West Mountain (Bingham Canyon), Tintic, asd Park City districts, Utah; the Verde, Warren, md Ajo districts, Arizona; the Robinson, Jarbridge, Tonopah, and Comf R P ee eee ANOTHER VERSION OF HILL FATAL ACCIDENT One of our good friends from Alleghany thisks The Nugget was mistaken in its version of the recent fatality at the 16 to 1 mine there AY, NOVEMBE ne Nees > Rina 18,1 previousmorning Statement From Young “My name is Thos.
