WORK FOR UNEMPLOYED
Sir, —As a miner of much experience 1 should like to point out that many of the unemployed could make a good living by sorting over the old dumps and tramming the ore to the battery. The custom is to throw all rock from development work on to the dump. Having already paid the cost of mining, and raising the ore, it should cost very little to separate from the waste and run into the battery, and though some would be poor, the rich patches should make up a payable average.
