metal
prices
prevailing
in
1931.
It
should
be
remembered
that
the
quantity
production
of
metals
and
minerals
in
1930
was
the
highest
in
the
history
of
mining
in
the
pro
vince.
When
due
consideration
Is
given
to
general
world
conditions
and
the
necessity
of
marketing
the
hulk
nf
metallic,
nroduetion
outside
i
the
province,
it
Is
very
satisfactory
that
the
industry
continued
to
op
erate
at
82
of
the
1930
rate.
There
was
a
lowered
quantity
output
as
compared
with
the
pro
ceeding
year
in
all
branches
of
the
industry,
except
placer
mining.
Due
to
lowered
metal
prices
the
value
of
metallic
production
shows
the
heavy
decline
of
42
from
1930.
The
tonnage
of
ore
mined
in
1930
is
estimated
at
5,410,000
tons
as
compared
with
6,803,846
tons
In
1930.
This
gives
an
average
gross
value
of
the
ore
mined
of
$4.36
a
ton,
as
compared
with
$6.04
a
ton
in
1930.
This
emphasizes

by

Lode

valued
at

shows
a
slight
decline
from
the
figure
in
1930
notwith
standing
much
increased
activity
in
this
form
of
mining.
Ths
lessen
ed
output
was
mainly
due
to
the
shutting
down
of
the
Copper
Mountain
mine,
a
lowered
output
from
Premier
owing
to
slightly
low
er
grade
ore,
and
the
closing
of
the
Nickel
Plate
mine,
a
former
consis
tent
gold
producer.
These
decreases
were
offset
in
pait
by
a
much
larg
er
output
from
the
Pioneer
and
In

from
the
Union
and

mines.
Placer

Placer
mining
had
a
very

and

year.

amount
to
about
$230,000,
a
con
siderable
Increase
over
the
$152,235
recorded
In
1930.
Furthermore,
the
work

this
year
Indicates
that
placer
gold
production
will

in
future
years.
This
form

Lead

this

it

Due
to
the
desire
of
this

to

in

of
