The Mine & Smelter Supply Company
This company, having branch houses in
Denver, Colo., Salt Lake City, Utah, El Paso, Texas, and the
City of Mexico, Mex., with general offices at 42 Broadway, New
York City, is the largest concern in the world handling mining
and smelting machinery and supplies exclusively. Their territory
covers the entire Rocky Mountain mining districts from British
Columbia to the Isthmus of Panama.
The Salt Lake
branch was opened in 1898, having taken over the business of the
Utah & Montana Machinery Company, which had been doing business
in this city for a number of years.
Like the
other branches located in Denver, El Paso and the City of
Mexico, this company has made a reputation in Utah in the
machinery and smelter supply line which has placed it in the
front rank of similar concerns throughout the entire country.
During the last eleven years the Salt Lake branch has become the
distributing point for mine sup-plies in Utah, Montana, Idaho
and Nevada.
The Mine &
Smelter Supply Company owns control and manufactures the Wilfley
concentrating table and the Wilfley slime table. These machines
are in use almost exclusively in every mining district in the
world where concentration is necessary.
This company
is the exclusive representative in its territory of a number of
large Eastern manufacturers who manufacture machinery and
supplies covered by their line, such as the Henry R. Worthington
Pump Co., the Knowles Steam Pump Co., Deane Steam Pump Co.,
Blake Steam Pump Co. in their pump line; the Laidlaw-Dunn-Gordon
Co., air compressors; Frost Manufacturing Co., boilers and
engines; the Ransome Concrete Machinery Co., concrete machinery;
Revere Rubber Co., rubber goods.
They have the
exclusive sale of the Mine & Smelter Supply Company's assay
balance, manufactured for them by Wilfred Heusser in Salt Lake
City, which is without a doubt the highest-grade instrument of
the kind made. This balance has a number of improvements which
appeal to the users of this class of instruments. The Mine &
Smelter Supply Company's stock includes all the requirements of
mine, mill and smelter from assay supplies to the heavy
machinery used in milling and smelting plants.
The Salt Lake
office and salesroom of the company are located at No. 121 to
125 West Second South Street and the warehouse is located on
Third South and Fifth West Street. The Salt Lake branch is under
the management of J. W. Gates.
