ARSENICAL ORE 



The mining of arsenical ore is a new industry in New York 

 State. While arsenical minerals have been produced at different 

 times in the past in connection with the exploitation of pyrite 

 deposits, it does not appear that they were considered of value 

 or employed for the extraction of arsenic. The present enter- 

 prise was started in April 1906, by the opening of an old pyrite 

 property situated near Carmel, Kent township, Putnam co. 

 Shipments of crude ore and concentrates were made both in 1906 

 and 1907, most of the material having been sold to foreign 

 chemical works. The mine is owned by the Putnam County 

 Mining Corporation.
