Mines 0Heve Become the Scene of Much Recent Activity. Great strides in prosperity have been made by the province of Huelva to Spain ()tying to the aclentifio Jvtylop• meat (Wits mineral wealth, and it Tint raises to become a considerable facto;: of great activity, says Stein rad titan. "— ,«LITTLE 6iRl:'S'fACE COVERED WITH ECZEMA Cured by Zam-Buk iu tho world's mineral indust -q. It is not the first time, hoever, that tide mining district has been the scene for the large amasses of ore in its moun- tains -furnished quantities of highly - prized metal to the old nations of the Mediterranean. According to. history, the Phoenicians were the first known people to work the Huelva rubles, re- mains of their wOrkInge, oven*, coins and other articles having been found In meet of the urines, ' After the Phoenicians came the Rom- ans, and during their dominion in Spain mining operations were greatly extend- ed, as is proved by the great amout of scoriae to be found in every mine. This is calculated to be in all 30,000,000 tone, showing that immense quantities of ore must have been extracted, ceasing with the inension of the Vandals. Since then the nines have been idle,' the first great impulse to scientific ex• traotion being given by foreign 000. patties between 1868 and 1875, when the minas began to be thoroughly open- ed out, and railways were constructed to the port of Huelva and magnificent ship- ping piers built. The copper pyrites, composed of about 48 per cent, sulphur, 44 per cent. iron and 3 per cent. copper, is the principal ore mined in the district, and contri- butes very considerably to the copper production of the world, By far the greeter part is sent to Great Britain, although large quantities are shipped to Holland and Germany. France and the United Stator are also consumers, and a small quantity goes to Denmark. British ships convey all the copper pyrltee, but a good many cargoes have been shipped to Germany in German ships, The ore ie also partly treated at Huelva by smelting, which produces the regulus, containing about 30 to 40 per gala, of copper, and by precipitation on to pig iron 111 large teaks, giving cote card with 110 to Oil per cent, of copper, according to treatment.
