By successive retreatment the minerals may thus be enrichedup to 50 to 60 per cent. Pb., and when blende is present, to about 42 percent. Zn. These concentrates may either be sold as they are, or furtherenriched in a dolly tub. The great drawbacks to the round buddle are the facts that no cleanproducts can be made straight away. The mineral must be handledseveral times, always a costly proceeding, and the machine must bestopped when full, and lie idle until emptied. A large number of buddies r^. Section. Plan.

The Concave Buddie.—The buddle which has just been described,might also be appropriately called a convex buddle, seeing that the centreis higher than the circumference, and in contradistinction to this we haveBorlases concave bundle, shown in fig. 209, in which the circumferenceis higher than the centre where the discharge takes place. THE KNIFE BUDDLE. O^D This buddle is suitable for the enriching of the heads of the roundbuddies, which may be broken up and thinned in the mixer (m), and bedeprived of any coarse, foreign matter, by the screen (n). For thispurpose the mixer shown in fig. 207 is particularly well
