WHAT IS A MINER'S INCH

 

Interesting to the Many Now
Staking Water Rights.

On this coast the unit for
measuring water in mining is
known as the miner’s inch. The
“inch” varies greatly in different
localities and is now generally
defined by legislative enactment.
The statute inch of Colorado, for
example, is defined as “an inch
square orifice, which shall be
under a five inch pressure meas-
ured from the top of the orifice
to the surface of the water, In a
box set in the banks of the ditch.
This orifice shall in all cases be

six inches perpendicular inside
kk

 

measurement, and all slides ¢

descent greater than one-eighth
of an inch to the foot.”

In British Columbia, under the
Water Clauses Consolidation
Act, 1897, Section 143, a miner's
inch is declared to be a flow of
water equal to 1.@8 cubic feet per
minute, Therefore, a miner's
inch is equal to .028 cubic feet
per second, and one cubie foot
per second is equal to 35.71
miner’s inches, approximately,
One cubie foot per second would
be equal to 38.4 Colorado miner's
inches.
