The solution overflowsfrom the box into the tank and then passes through the two pumps,h, and back again through the box, circulating until the extractionis completed. The motor, g. shown here for operating the pump isneedlessly large. A compound pervious electrode box ready for use BUREAU OF MINES BULLETIN 150 PLATE III. A. WORKING MODEL.
