  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.
