ROYAL PARACALE MINES, INC. The production at Royal Paracale Mines for the month of August was higher than the preceding month, with a total of 2,161 tons treated for a total recovery of P20,313.13. The average per ton was P9.40, with extraction at 82.24%. The total development advance dur­ ing the month was 1,419 feet; 1,160 feet were in capital development and 259 feet in operating. Of the capital, 72 feet were in ore, while of the operat­ ing 71 feet were in ore. Stoping operations were carried on the following stopes: 150 hanging wall, 530 West, 200 West, 250 West, 75 West, 23 East, 684 West, 730 West, 135 West and 63 West. The #5 level is being extended west to prospect the area under stopes at the #4 level. The #1 prospect raise has been connected to the 1304 level. The #5 crosscut tunnel at Luya has been cleared out and retimbered and a counter drift is now being driven. It is intended to drift both east and west along the vein into the old surface stopes. The Denver mineral jig has arrived and will be installed at once. The fine ore crusher installation has proven a decided success. The construction de­ partment has completed the new cool­ ing water tower and a new cooling wa­ ter sump tank. Operations in the mine and mill for the month were normal and satisfac­ tory. 14 The Marsman Magazine for September, 1939
