Samplers at Present Operating
The bulk of the ore previous to shipment to the valley mills is sampled, and its value determined, in one of the three modern samplers at present operating in the district.
The Taylor and Brunton, the Cripple Creek Sampling and Ore Company, and the Eagle Ore Company, the three present samplers, have all been recently built.
Brunton and Vezin machines are used, the ore being crushed and rough rolled generally to 1 in. and finer before cutting out the sample.
Smaller rolls and small gyratory crushers or grinders are used successively in reducing the sample for assay purposes. The district is studded with several more or less antiquated samplers which have been unable to compete with the better methods and arrangements now in use.

Cripple Creek District Up to Date; Snapshot Samplers Nov. 2, 1904
Colorado Springs, Nov. 2. Daily shipments are being maintained from the district at such a rate as was never before known in the history of the camp. The month of October is going to crowd the banner month of September with a nearly 25 per cent. increase.
As an illustration, the following table shows the ore received to-day by the different samplers of the district:
Sampler |
Tonnage |
Taylor & BrantonBrunton |
600 tons |
Eagle Sampler |
300 tons |
Rio Grande |
275 tons |
Cripple Creek |
250 tons |
|
|
Making a total of 1425 tons for the day. |
The above, with that sent direct to the smelters, would reach the figures easily of over 2000 tons per day.
At the present time there are more men working in the district than at any time in the history of the camp, and more ore with a better valuation is being sent out every day.

DENVER, COLORADO.—The Eagle sampler made the Cripple Creek monthly record last January by treating 21,000 tons. It is claimed to have the world's record by sampling an average of 55.3 tons per hour for 19 hours.
The high records achieved by the various samplers show the effect of the recent reductions in freight and treatment rates on the ore produced in the Cripple Creek district.

Eagle Sampler Record Exemplify Surge in District Activities
A record has been made by the Eagle sampler, which shows that great activity is prevalent in the Cripple Creek district. During January 21,100 tons of ore were sampled, and now the tonnage is largely increased. In one day of two 9½ hr. shifts the plant sampled 1052.5 tons, which constitutes a record.
The ore is going to the mills at Colorado City and Florence. The Golden Cycle mine alone is shipping 200 tons per day. The reason for this activity is the reduction in rates charged by the United States R. & R. Co., which charges only $3.50 per ton for ores of $8 or less.

Eagle Sampler Details
The Eagle Sampler.
The same automatic samplers (Vezin) are used as before, and one-fiftieth of the original is sent to the sampling floor. Here it is coned and quartered, but not reduced by this method. The coning and quartering serves simply to mix the sample.
Opposite quarters are now taken and placed together, so that from this point two separate samples are treated. These are reduced by a large set of riffles to forty-mesh each, and from this on the operation is the same as the Black and the Rio Grande.
