'■•^ t I THE GOLD YIELD OF NOVA SCOTIA. Introductory. — The accompanying Tallies published annually shice 1865 show the gradual development of the Tiovincial gold in- dustry ; and it is to be hoped that they afford useful data not only for the statistician and political economist, but also for the cautious investor who vrould naturally seek assurance for the stability of any enterprise in which he proposed embarking in an unembellished statement of results extending over many years. Readers who care not to wade through a long array of figures may take interest in the subjoined summary. General Results, — Making allowance for quantities stolen and otherwise not reported — approximately ten per cent, of the whole — the value of the total gold yield from the autumn of i860 to the close of the year 1872 was ;^948,ooo. The traceable and officially recognised yield for the years 1861 to 1872 inclusive, is 215,871 ozs., or ;,^S63,484 in value; of whigh ;,^I2,532 (3133 ozs.) from alluvial washings, and ^850,952 (212,738025.) from quartz treated in the mill. The largest declared yield in any one year for the whole Province was /"i09,258 (27,314^ ozs.) for 1867 ; the largest annual yield of any separate district ^'57,617 (14,404! ozs.) for Waverley in IS65 ; the largest annual yield of any single mine ;[^34,9io (8,727^ ozs.) from the Tudor mine at Waverley in 1864 — not reckoning about 3.000 ozs. known to have been stolen ; and the largest bar of gold ever cast was in June 1865, from the same mine, the property of Mr. Leo- pold BuERKNKR, the weight being 1,200 ozs. and its value ;^4,8oo. The largest aggregate amount produced from mines owned by com- panies, is ;[^220,ooo from the Ophir at Renfrew, the Wellington and Palmerston at Sherbrooke, and the American at Waverley. The largest amount produced from a mine owned by one person is ^^72,000 from the Tudor at Waverley. The largest return in proportion to the workings, is ;if 72,000 from the Wellitigton mine on a 13 inch lode, opened only 180 feet in length and 500 feet in depth. Promoters of public companies have received about ;^ i, 000,000 stg. for claims. The largest price ever paid was ;iC4500 for two free claims at Waverley of 150 feet each. The largest capital of any mining corporation, proportioned to their holding, was that of the Tipperary and New York Company, who owning only 300 feet in one and 150 feet in another district, organized for the amount of ;£"5o,ooo. -AiirtSin f i.-'iWttf^''"-^'--"- -^tiii-tlt'iirfffliitr"-"'*^'^'-'-'"'^'^""-' The Provincial Government has received about ;^5o,ooo for rents and royalty. The cost of 2,227,550 days' labor, estimating wages at five shillings a. day — which is higher than the average of the first five years — was ;^556,888. The cost of 55 mills, the greatest number at any time in operation, may be given as;^77,200; allowing /"i 600 each for 37 steam, and j^iooo each for 18 water-mills. The cost of supplies, rated at 5 sh. for each ton raised, amounted to ;^56,478. Incidental expenses reckoned at 10 per cent, on the totals for labor, •upplies and machinery, were ;^69,434. The total legitimate cost, then, of eleven years declared yield. Government exactions included, was ;^8io,oco, leaving a margin of ^^29,484, reserves comparatively intact, and plant and recoverable tailings worth ;[C75,ooo. The production of the several proclaimed districts, from the quartz mines alone, continuing developments on lodes now actually worked to a mean depth of 1000 feet, and confiniag them to present lateral bounds would, according to the average of declared yields, amount collectively to ;^27,ooo,ooo. Quardz Mining. — It will be observed from accompanying Tables that quartz is the chief source ot gold in this Province, and that th« proportion per ton varies considerably in each district. There are not only patches in every district, but there are entire districts (as in Australia), where the quartz is exceptionally rich ; but to counter- balance this, the veins are narrow and more expensive to beneficiatt . ^i. 8s. per ton is the present lowest cost of raising and reducing 2,000 lbs. of quartz from a lode one foot in width, running in slate. The attention of quartz miners here has been too much confined to narrow lodes ; but when it comes to be understood that it is relatively cheaper to operate on large quantities of low grade ore than on picked lots of rich ore, wide veins yielding five to ten pennyweights, which might be profitably worked on an extensive scale at a cost of only two or three pennyweights, will cease to be disregarded. Small veins, however, will never be wholly abandoned so long as it is remembered that in Grass Valley, California, seven million dollars' worth of gold were produced from a lode only averaging fourteen inches in width. — {See Mineral Resources of the United States^ 1867.) Alluvial Mining. — With the exception of beach washings at the Ovens, which were prosecuted during the years 1861 and 1862, alluvial mining has been almost wholly neglected. Professor B. SiL- LIMAN and Mr. Campbell incline to the opinion that the auriferous "r^*"^-*^^"-- '1 ' ■ " dehris of this Province have been swept beneath the ocean ; but M. M, J. W. Dawson, J. A. Phillips, T. Sterry Hunt, the late Auguste Michel and A. R. C. Selwyn, who in the succession named have examined and reported oa this region, consider that systematic search for alluvial gold might well repay the prospector. At Tangier Harbor a nugget weighing 27 ozs. was found in 1862 ; and at Middle River, Cape Breton, and Gay's River pieces of gold weighing from 10 grains to 17 dwts. have been washed. At Nine-Mile River, Stewiacke, Indian Path, and Gold River, the alluvions are deep and impregnated with iine gold From the last mentioned district Dr. How obtained very remarkable results, which are cited in his Mineralogy of Nova Scotia, and in Dr. Dawson's Acadian Geology, aud were to a great extent, practically sustained by Mr. Michel's subsequent experiments on the ground. Recent trials on an extended scale at Gay's River gave very satisfactory returns. Average per Ton. — The eleven years' mean from the crushing of 249,346 tons British, is 16 dwts. 20.005 grs., against which Victoria, Australia, reports a thirteen years' mean of 10 dwts, 11.39 grs. per ton, and a further yield of 2 dwts. 14.91 grs. from after treatment of the tailings. The highest average for the whole Province in any one year was i oz. 3 dwt. 6 grs., in 1865, and the lowest 13 dwt. 23 grs. in 1 87 1, The highest yearly average of one district was 4 ozs. 13 dwts. 15 g'*s., for Montagu in 1870, and the lowest 2 dwts. 3i grs. for the Unclassified Districts in 1872. The highest district average for the whole period from 1862 to 1872 is 2 ozs. 16 dwts., 8 grs. for 4370^ Brit, tons crushed at Montagu ; the lowest 6 dwts. 22 grs. for 5030^ tons crushed in the Unclassified Districts. As concentration of the tailings takes place in only two mills, and that but recently, the above average does not represent the gold contents of the quartz that has been crushed by a large per centage. Average Earnings. — The mean yearly average for all districts amounts to ;^ii7.ii.6 ; Victoria, Australia, showing a mean of £"^0.- 1 1. 5-38d for twelve years ended 1871. The highest average for the Province was ;^ 1 55. 14.8 in 1867; the lowest ;£"38. 4.0 in 1862. The highest in one district for the whole period is ^177.13.11 for Sher- brooke, the lowest ;^43. 10.2 for the Unclassified Districts. The high- est district average for one year is;^363.3.8 for Wine Harbor in 1872 ; the lowest ;^9. 16.8 for the Unclassified Districts in 1867. The daily provincial mean for the period covered by this review is 7s. 6-44d., and for each district as follows : Sherbrooke, lis. 5-i8d. ; Wine Harbor, 8s. io-34d. ; Renfrew, 89. 2-62d. ; Caribou, 8s, 2-46d. ; Uniacke, 8s. 2-i7d. ; Montagu, 7s. 9-64d ; Waverley, 6s. 9-65d. ; Stormont, 5s. 9-92d. : Oldham, 5s. 9-45d. ; Tangier, 3s. lo-jod. ; .* ^^. '■IPJiLH^H mi%iyw Unclassified, 2s. 9-47d. The daily average for Wine Harbor last year was £i 3s. 3-37d. per man, while his ordinary wages only amounted to 5s. or 6s. a day. Number of Miners. — The total numlier of days labor declared for eleven years is 2,227,550 ; equal to the number expended in thirty- four days in Victoria, Australia, in the year 1871. The greatest number of miners employed in any one year by the whole Province was 8S7 in 1863 ; and by one district 317 — in Waverlcy — in 1866. The daily provincial mean for the whole period was 649 ; the highest district mean, 152 for Waverley, and the lowest 19, for Caribou. Quartz Raised. — The aggregate returns give a mean of 254 lbs. for each days' labor, but allowing one third of the hands as employed elsewhere than at the pits, it would appear that it required, on average, 6 men to raise 2240 lbs. of quartz. Quartz Crushed. — The total quantity crushed is, in round numbers, 250,000 tons British, or no more than has been treated in four years ift one mine in Australia. Mills. — At the close of the year 53 mills were standing, but hardly a dozen in constant operation. They arerage ten stamps apiece, and their aggregate capacity i» 530 tons a day, or 165,000 tons a year, which could even be doubled by the previous use of patent crushers. So far the mean quantity treated, per day, is slightly in excess of 72 tons. General Remarks. — This condensed Review is chiefly for the pur- pose of directing attention to a new field for the profitable employ- ment of European, more particularly British, capital. The noble efforts of the Royai, Colonial Institute, are teaching England the value of her Atlantic possessions, whose denizens should also take pride in making known resources of interest or benefit to the Empire. The proximity of Nova Scotia to the Mother-Country, its accessi- bility '"''I'm all points by land or sea, its excellent harbors, innumera- ble rivers, immense forests, extensive deposits of coal, iron and geld, and above all its wholesome climate and law-abiding population, are claims worth considering by capitalists who invest in mining ventures and who would give a British colony the preference if reasonable assurance were offered that the risks there would not be greater than in distant alien countries. An eleven years' abstract of returns made under oath, presented in the accompanying Tables gives that assurance, and at the same time practically refutes any imputation of bias or imaginativeness that might otherwise be raised against an advocate of Nova Scotia Gold Mining.
