The work is essentially practical from the aim of the course is not to impart a very extensiveknowledge of Chemical Analysis, but to make the stu-dent thoroughly familiar with such fundamental prin-ciples as will fit him to do the ordinary technical workrequired in an assay <o LU X o .;*: COLLEGE OF THE SACRED HEART 29 Only two lessons are given weekly, but experienceproves that, to be profitable, they require three or fourhours each. Attention is first given to blowpipe analy-sis. The student is then made to master the fire assayof Gold, Lead and Silver, and is then gradually ac-quainted with those volumetric and gravimetric pro-cesses which will allow him to make the following de-terminations : Copper, Iron, Zinc, Silica, Manganese,Sulphur, Lead, Molybdenum, Tungsten, Tin, Cobalt,Nickel, Uranium. This course has been in existence several years,and the responsible positions held in various miningcamps and assay offices of the state by some of itsformer students are an ample proof of its usefulness. A further proof of the utility of the departmentand the esteem in which it is held by the mining men isdrawn from the fact, that, for the last fourteen years,over five hundred specimens have been sent to the de-partmen
