Title
[D8462W], Letter from Western Edison Light Co to Thomas Alva Edison, March 12th, 1884
Editor's Notes
[SELECTABLE FOR TAE MARG] Parties interested in mining ask if current for lighting could be used in daytime to precipate copper in treating crushed refractory ore. TAE marg: "It can be used but best way is to mix the copper ore with coke & run it into plates of black matter then the copper can be deposited pure & gold & silve remain in the mud- Can be done day times at electrical stations= I have six vats being made now to try it."
