ELECTBO-AMALGAMATOB PBOCESS. Buda Pesth, Hungary. "We bare had a series of very interesting trialt of this process under the superintend dence of Mr Henry Tapp, representative of the Electro-Amalgamator Company, of London. The system, by the aid of Elcctri-1 city, renders it possible to treat low grade ores j without calcination at a rery small cost. The I treatment of tailings, containing sickened ! mercury and amalgam, all of which can be recovered by this process, can be carried on at a cost of three shillings per ton. Professor Wagner, who has analysed the tailings, reports that in erery case, after electrical amalgamation, scarcely any trace of the precious metal* was found." Tie Times, London. "The applications of Electricity to industrial purposes continue to increase, as the science becomes further and more practically developed. The latest direction in which the electric current has been utilized is in connection with the extraction of gold from its ore by mercurial amalgamation. The matter has been taken up by the Electro-Amalgamator Co., at wboee works a number of gentlemen interested in Gold-Mining assembled on Tuesday, to witness a demonstration. Various methods were shown, but whatever plan was adopted, showed the most absolute results as regards the effectivo enlivening of the mercury, and this taken with the satisfactory chemical results of working, mark* tbe invention aa a valuable step in an important direction." Some and Colonial Mail. " . . . The time, labor, and money taved by this nrost recent application of Electricity, and the high percentage of gold extracted by it, must ensure its rapid and general adoption." San Francises News Letter. "... These statements were fully borne out by nen of the very highest scientific reputation, among whom were Henry Tapp, Mining Engineer, Professor Wiilium Button May, Electrician, and Fred. Ctaudef., Assajer to the Bank of England, Mr Tapp conducted numerous experiments in tbe presence of experts ; at;d among other things says that he considers the application of Elec'r oity to quicksilver is the long sought for secret that ! is to render the refractory ores of the world amenable to manipulation, and that we are face to face with a discovery that is of the very greatest importance " Arrangements are being made to apply the above process at the NEW PRINCE IMPERIAL BATTERY.
