All the working parts are made of the best drilled iron and cast steel;and the makers claim that, owing to their long experience in steel makingfor armour plates and war material, they have succeeded in turning out ametal which will resist the wear and tear inseparable from a pulverisingmachine. I have no personal acquaintance with this machine, but Ihave heard good accounts of the work it has done in the dry and wetcrushing of gold ores. CHAPTER XII.
