'It is manifest that the unpmtitahle mining operaticms carried on some years ago were largely due to the irngularitio of these ore hodie<: to primitive methods of working; and to the long railway haul fnim the mine to Pennsyl- vania, U.S.A., where the ore i< reported to have heen shipped.

There were five shipping mines, as compared ivith four during 10ns. No shipments were made by the Wilbur, in Lanark county, but the Atiko- kan mines, west of Port Artlmr. were n-opened ; while the Dominion Bessemer 8 Ore Company, of riiilndeliihia, opened u)) an iron property about twenty-three miles east of Port Arthur, on Thunder l>ay, and shipped a quantity of ore in two srrades, Xo. 1 running 52 per cent iron, and No. 2, 40 per cent. It is intended to e(iuii> the property with crushers an0'.». The plant at tlie mine is now entirely electrically driven, taking about 400 horse-power. The Moose .Mountain mine, in llutton township, shipped chiefly to the United States, a'thou^'h one shipment each was made respectively to Sydney. X.S. and Hamilton. Out. Shipments were also made from the Mayo mine in Hastings county, operated by the Canada Iron Corporation, Limited, under lease, the ore being shipped to .Midland and Railnor.

During the past fourteen years the iron smelting industry in Canada has had to draw more and more upon imported supplies of iron ore, a large portion of these supplies being, however, derived from Newfoundland, which should hardly be looked upon as a foreign source, though for purposes of commerce it has to be so considered. The total consumption of iron ore in Canadian furnaces in 1900 was 1,402,.'')02 short tons, made up of 2,57..502 tons of Canadian ore and 1.235,000 tons of imported ore. The Canadian production was, therefore, only about IT per cent of our requirements. Previous to ISOr. the furnaces were supplied altogether by Canadian ores. The quantities of Canadian and imported ores annually charged to blast furnaces since 1SS7 are shown in Table IC The Department of Customs does not separately piddish statistics of iron ore imports. Since the opening of the Helen mine at ^liehipieoten. and more recently the Moose Mountain mine in llutton township, consideralile quantities of iron ore have been exported to the T'nited State=. The stntistios of exports for both calendar and fiscal years are shown in the two tables following, the statistics for the fiscal year having been added, to compare with the record of imports of iron ore into the United States from Canada, as published in the ' Foreign Commerce and N'^vigation of the United States, Washington, D.C.. rnd shown in Table 6a. It so happened that from 1901 to lOOfi the figures in the Canadian reports were inaccurate, owing to reasons explained in foot-notes to the tables. iL-^ .'3 IKOX.-TABLE 5.

An increased production is. therefore. shov>"' jf U^M' tons, or ahout 20 per cent, and this despite the fact that the Londonderry furnace was out of commission during the whole year. These figures do not include the output from electric furnaces, making ferro-products. which are situat^-d at Welland and Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., and Buckingham. Que. Of the total output of pig iron during 1909, 17.00:5 tons, valued at $371,368, or $21.84 per ton, were made with charcoal as fuel, and 740.1.')9 tons, valued at $9,210,496, or $1:.' 14 per ton. with coke. The amount of charcoal iron made in 1908 was 6,709 tons, and iron made with coke, 624,126 tons. The classification of the production in 1909. according to the purpose for which it was intended, was as follows: Bessemer. 222.9:il tons; Uasic, 400.921 tons; foundry, including miscellaneous, ilfi.307 tons. The American Iron and P eel Association reported the production of Bessemer pig iron in 1908 ns 120,348 short tons, as npainst 1T:!.49!» tons in llMtT; and the production of hasic pig iron in 1908 as 37.''),0.'')9 short tons, as against .382.208 tons in 1907. The total production of pig iron in 1908 and 1909 is shown hy provinces in the following table, the average value per ton being also indicated. Tn the case of Xova Scotia, a large proportion of the pig iron is directly converted to steel. A nominal value is placed upon this, and docs not necessarily represent a market value. The Quebec production is entirely charcoal iron, which has for many years coinnianded a high price. 11 1I{<)\,-TAHI,7; 7. Production of Pig Iron by Provinces, 1908-9. ProvincpH. 1!)08. ToiiH Value.
