President John L. Lewis, CIO. PORTLAND, Aug. 28 (,r Mining advances probably have been more rapid thon any other basic Oregon Industry, Earl K. Nixon, director of the state de partment of geology and mineral industries, reported today. A federal bureau of mines sur vey showed tho state's produc tion of metallic minerals and ores mounted 166 per cent in value from 1938 to 1939. Nixon predicted a 30 per cent gain this year compared with 1939. Including the value of non metallic production for this year of about $8,000,000, Oregon s total mineral production will be well in excess of $10,000,000 perhaps nearer $12,000,000, Nixon explained. Tho actual value of gold, quicksilver, lead, zinc and cop per produced in Oregon last year was $3,828,243 compared with $3,282,970 in 1939. Non-metallic mineral production, including limestone for cement, stone, gravel dlatomitc and others can not be exactly stated until later, the director said. Nixon traced the rapid ad vance to the sharp rise In quick silver production to an estimat ed value of about $1,630,000 In 1940 and to the Increase in tho number of gold dredges now In operation. , The Bonanza mine near Sutherlln is the largest quicksilver producing mine in the United States. Counting gold producers only in 1939, there wero 116 under ground quartz producers, 13 dredges, 13 non-floating washing plants, 76 hydraulic gold produc ers, 13 underground drift placers and miscellaneous to bring the total placer producers to 201 for the year. Baker county was the largest gold procfucer and Grant county second, Nixon's study revealed.
