As will be seen from tlie above analyses, tliere is considerable 

 variation in the metallic contents of the ore, bnt the iron con- 

 tent is good, and as they are all comparatively low in sulphur, 

 phosphorus, and titanium, they will, therefore, make iron ores 

 of high value. 



Analyses I and II of ore from the Calloway property are 

 low in iron, but they represent samples taken across the full 

 width of the ore deposit, including gangue and waste. By hand 

 cobbing this ore can readily be raised to a 55 to 60 per cent 

 iron ore. The magnetite portion of the vein gives as high as 

 65 per cent metallic iron. 



The ores represented by analysis III, IV, and VIII-A can 

 also be easily concentrated by hand cobbing. 



All the ores tested are a splendid grade of magnetite, and 

 should make a pig iron of exceptional quality.
