"HE KNEW TIN."

A CORNISHMAN 6 EPITAPH.

THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 25th, 1913.

In the old county that has given the world so many practical oxponents of the art of mining it is considered a sufficient encomium if a man can be said to know tin." Indeed. most Cornishmen would be satisfied to have for their epitaph: “Bo knew tin.

The knowledge imputed in this cuan inciades more. than a bit of local mineralogy; it assumes a thorough under- standing of the various kinds of tinstone. the places of their origin, and the best method of treating them according to ne cepted methods.

A man who knows tin is regarded et Camborne and Redruth as a philosopher. It comes therefore as a real shock to the Cousin Jack when the uitlander in Lon- don begins to question whether he does know how to treat tin ore, how to ascer tain its contents and how to make money out of the art to which he and his fore- fathers have been continuously devoted.

That the acumen and skill of the gentle men west of the Tamar is being doubted was made evident laet sammer when the scientific societies visited Cornwall. The doubt was expressed courteously, and it was rebatted vigorously. Since the friendly controversy has been maintained in conversation and in the Press. Just before the Christmas holiday the whole matter was ventilated first at a public dinner and then at a technical meeting

On the latter, occasion three papers on the treatment and assay of tin eres sub- mitted before the institution of Mining and Metallurgy. And with notable suc- cess, as regards discussion.

The old subject of the discrepancy be tween the results from tests on a vanning shovel, on the one hand, and those yielded by chemical assay, on the other, was in the ascendant. We say the old." subject, for it has been thoroughly wonti- lated many times before.

Indeed, Mr. W. Fischer Wilkinson, the author of the paper that revived the dis cussion, has exposed himself to censure for the incompleteness of his references to earlier papers.

He does refer to half-a-dozen, but ho omits several more important than any of those quoted, notably the paper on Losses in Vanning Tin Ores, by Mr

MAKTIN'S PIOLES

January 21st, 1904-nine years ago.

In that article Mr. Pearce, an acknow ledged authority on such matters, showed that the average loss by vanning, as com pared with the chemical assay-method of Mr. E. V. Pearce, was 22,55 per cent. on a 3 per cent. tin ore. Again Mr. J. J. Beringer wrote on the Wet Assay of Tin Orea in the November, 1909, issue of The Mining Magazine, and Mr. HW

1. mention the matter because it is pertinent to the discussion, and also to Iny stress on the point that technical men starting to write on any subject should take paine to ascertain what has already been written on that subject,

However, the day is past for anyone to claim accuracy for the tanning-shovel, That implement was useful as a rough check upon an inefficient method of con- centration. Before real metallurgical progress could be made it became neces sary to employ a more precise means of ascertaining the contents of the ore.

With reliance upon the vanning-shovel will go the dependence upon rudimentary methods of ore-dressing. It used to be a familiar retort on the part of our friends at Camborne and Redruth that needless refinement in the assay was ridiculous tion attainablo in practice. In some mes- sure that was true, but the truth of it has been lessened, fortunately, by metal- lurgical methods more accurate than the vanning shovel.
