The highlights are: Excellent efficiencies - 98 to 99Jt Outlet, grain loadings of C.025 to .0.005 grains/cu. ft. Cost per ton dried now below per ton. A fibre glass bag.which can resist temperatures of 500-550 deg.f is under test. Cost is 5.00 versus $4.00 for conventional cloth. This experience certainly indicates that a-properly maintained cloth collector will dc an excellent job. E ) C anad ian johr.?-r,-.yi ] le Conppny L im it e d A - ' The `20,000 c .f .m.

Althougn no oust count mesurfnsnts have as yet been made, visual inspections indicate no dust emission. Rotoclone Wet Collector-C. J - K Plant a A - The tests to-date indicate the efficiency to vary considerably depending on / vcriables such as water volume, water application, air volume, etc. The dust discharge is about.OA grains per cubic foot. Although such discharge would be acceptable in most communi ties, the dust emission is still visible and further tests will be carried out in an effort to further improve the collector's efficiency. ^ 4_.,^ Rotoclone Wet Collector-C.J-fi Plant 5A - A rotoclone of a 45,000 c.f.m.. capacity has been instelled et a cost of $25,000. at Kill 5A to clean up the gases leaving the Buell type cyclone c oilectors,..w Mi 11. 5A has started operations and'the unit is ;* ' being run in. Tests will be reported as socn as available. Aerodyne Dust Collector - A project has been approved tc test e 2,0CC c.T.n. unit at o cost of $9,700. The unit will be installed in August, end will be run both wet and dry. Aerodyne collector originates from the Siemen's Plant in Germany. It is fundamentally a dry dust collector operating on the principle of inducing e centrifugal action on the dust.,,^ V; by%the.i*njec'tiehr of*'secondary air. ~ Bailey CXjst Density Peter - Because the amount of dust emitted fr o m Rotoclone is small, the usual method of sampling the stack by aspirating a dust sample is net always representative. Also, it is difficult to relete the changes in efficiency with the changes in operating conditions cf the dryer end the collector. To overcome thess difficulties, a Bailey IXist .tteter and Recorder has been purchasd_by_C. J-K._fcr_$2,20C.j_for experimental-pur-'" r5h-i-- 1-54 ** _ poses. The unit, whicn operates on the principle of light c C 12. m absorption by the dust in the meesured sample,is.scheduled tc be delivered early July. It will be installed at Plant A. The light sensitive cell in the stack is designed tc measure, indicate and record instantly changes in the dust content in the emitted air. C) Asbestos Corporation Limited ,,..,,.^Electrostati c .Precipi tator - A revised proposal has been tendered to Asbestos Corporation by the manufacturer for a unit to handle 172,000 c.f.m. at 300 degs for the King drying plant. This represents a 20^ increase in air handling requi rement over original plan. The price has been increased to S 1 5 0 f000. with a performance guarantee. Anticipated input grain loadings""et 0.50 per .cc, ft. with stack emission at 0.03. Asbestos Corporation engineers reported favorably on the xjssiinatiorv.0 f.,e .unit .in..-operation et St. Lawrence Cement. It is anticipated that this project will get u n d e r w a y in the third quarter. Pulscire Collectors - Asbestos Corporation is trying e 1000 c.f.m. unit costing Si.600. on dust control on e transfer point in E.C. #2 rill.

Allard minister of Natural Resources, at which time the brief prepared by Dr. G.Letendre on the proposed Wining fund was discussed at length with the minister. The brief, at the request of the Alinister, will be supplemented with details of past occurences of mine closures or merger experienced by certain companies. The meeting was informed that at the c.nnual meeting of the Q.W.m.A. at the Cray Rocks Inn, offers had again been made to merge beth the C.K.K.A. and O.A.K.A. together into one Asso ciation. However, it was quickly realised that the problems of the two (2) Associations were somewhat different, as well as the budgets required to carry out their programs. Consistent with the report submitted by the General Kaneger on the preferences of the Directors cf the Association, it was agreed that future Special liinter meetings should be held during the third week of Kerch and future fall Keetings during the first week of October. Accordingly, the General Kanager will seek to obtain reservations at the verious locations, in tne order of p r eference indicated in th6 report. ,, k'wit `jtM -- a w e . w i w w i ~r ~ e w *- ...A* c c X a ; ** s ., .A I < ...f t U. i%Z 2wZ INZ SS Contribution to CIM Educcticn Committee - A letter of appeal for financial assistance was receivea fron the General Committee on 1 j > i '1 . i -j Education, CIM and tabled at the meeting.

Q.A.ffl.A. called for an emergency meeting with this group to discuss the ability of the Conference to provide adequate service for the balance of the year. At the time of writing, individual members are advising the Confe- *v.*1 rence of the anticipated tonnage required to be shipped for the last four months of the year in order that the Conference may assess their ability to lift these tonnages on e regular besis. In the event that this does not prove to be possible, we have advised the Conference that we will h a v e ,no alternative but to resign and make our own arrangements for the balance of this year and presumably next year. In private conversation with some of the ' member- lines I was assured that the deteriora service had been beyond the control of the local repre sentatives and had been occasioned by such factors es the seaway strike end the unstable labour climate at the St. Lawrence River ports. Both of these factors have been corrected and they indicated that with the antici pated tonnage of asbestos to be moved during the last quarter (40,000 tons), they could not foresee any diffi- _ culty in persuading -their ,,owners .to schedule-sufficien vessels to move this caroo. .

Paul Allsrd,Minister of Natural Resour ces in the Quebec Government. The brief on the application of the gasoline tax on Diesel Oil consumed in exploration and inino operations-seemed to impress the Minister, who remarked that his department is presently investigating the possibility of submitting legislation granting a partial tax exemption for oil used for such purposes. As to our proposed amendments to the Mining Act concerning.exploration rulings, the Minister assured the delegation that our comments would be given serious consideration and thet some of the points stressed would possi bly be included in the report presently being prepared for go vernmental approval by the Department of Natural Resources. The brief on the Diesel Oil Tax will also be discussed with the Minister of finance, Honorable Paul Dozois,^during^emeeting ^ et'his Montreal Office on September 23. A favorable ruling hes been brought down by the Government on July 10, 1968 concerning the use of Diesel Oil in the manufac turing of explosives as per Order in Council. No. 2126, which stipulates t h a t t h e tax payed on Diesel oil ao intended is re fundable.

The ruling is made effective April 1st, 1958. hinipur 'On July 5, 1963, the Corporation Tax Act was amended. Bill 37 enacted to on that date increases the tax on the amount of paid-up capital of any comoany from one-tenth (0.1;) to onefifth (0.2/i) of one percent. Another recommendation enacted by the Quebec Government on July 10, 1968, deels with the deduction of charitable contributions under the Cuebec Corporation Tax Act. According to Order in Council No. 2124, the maximum amount that can be deducted from net revenue is-'Taised from 5% to 10^. The regulation applies to the financial year in progress of every company on the 31st of December, 1967 and to subsequent financial years. A recent report which might eventually have its repercussions on labour relations in the Province cf Cuebec is the controver sial document brought down by the Rand Commission, which inves tigated labour-management relations in Orlcric. Some of its recommendations will be aocEpted, but others will be strongly disputed. Important proposals are: a) Virtual elimination of ex-perte injunctions; b) Restricting of mass picketing; c) Making unions legal entities, subject to lawsuits; d) Limiting the length of strikes; e) Limiting supervisory personnel assigned to maintaining production during e strike; f) Denying the right to strike to public workers ar.d settling their disputes'by arbitration; ) E s t a b l i a n m g a n Indus trie l.Aribuneliito.'.'reguietE'slebcr-ciBna-'G---121 gement disputes. V \ > ; 1 c \ -rrzjrr n / 3. The repcrt commands serious attention; it is expected that the Ontario Government will accept several of its recommendations. U.:e ere informed that the Department of Labour of Quebec is stu dying the report with the inner anticipation of deriving answers to many labour problems. Preliminary to the tabling of a government White Paper, 'Prim? fflinister Trudeau recently met labor and business leaders to discuss ideas on wage and price stability. following one such meeting, Jir. Parcel Pepin stated that the C.N.T.U. approved in general the recommendations of the Carter Commission and that the application of these recommendations by the Trudeau Govern ment would be a concrete step toward the establishing of a "just society". This, edded Pir. Pepin, also ties in with the fifth annual report cf the economic Council of Canade. In this res pect, employers suggest limitations on the growth of 'government spending, a cut in corporation taxes and the removal of the 3^ surtax on personal income introduced this year. ho doubt, price and wage stability as well as serious poverty in Canada will be major tcrics of ci s cuss;on e ` levels in the coming months.

A , DRYER STACK CONTROL Eirst may I restate the problem using C.J.M. as en example. In 1960, 48 tons per day .were being exhausted from the stacks; by 1967, this -has been reduced to 20 tons per day. This was, however, the best performance attainable with conventional high efficiency cyclones. v j The current status of experimental measures under test in the industry i s : 1. 8ao Collectors - a) The C.J.K. unit is fully operative, by-passing only B% of the time with temperature limits set at 160o F. minimum and 250o F, maximum. The stack discharge is virtually clear; one test by the Q.A.M.A. dust engineer gave 6 tc 92m-7ppici f ;Yvs r`300 *mVp Vp ;c .f l" for the "i r.put''ga s es/*^' : unit hcs yet tc be tested under winter conditions. One disturbing result has been the need to increase the fuel consumption by Bbout 50^ due to the higher temperature a n d cloth resistance. Studies will continue in order tc improve this situation.

A one-full section installation is planned; this will permit study of the filtration efficiency, mechanical performance and fuel efficiency. 2. Rotoclone - The 45,000 cfm unit has been operating on the new dryer ' installation at C.J.W. for two (2) months. All of the initial run-in problems have been solved. A very slight dust emission only is visible included in a very marked plume of water vapor caused by the more than 6 tons per hour of mater being expelled. The Bailey continiously-monitoring dust meter is installed and being-nralibrated. A second unit is being installed or. the inlet gases. If successful, and the unit locks promessing, efficiencies will be continiously measured and recorded; - results will 'be reported"es''soon' 8s'*ava'iiable.-'""'''`"3t,fe` 3.

The Government would then benefit from a larger number of new and expanded mining operations. Second, for assessment purposes of exploration work, diamond drilling, it was pointed out, which is the most important if not the "sine qua non", pert .of any reliablermineral-exploration*^^ end evaluation, should be credited at actual cost and not cal culated In terms of hours cf work per foot drilled. Such a method would encourage sr.all and large companies to spend more money cn diamond-drilling end bring about more discoveries in e shorter period of time. These arguments were received with considerable interest and favorable comments on the pert of the minister of Natural Resources end his staff. It ia our hope thet the same sympathetic hearing will be .given by .,,Honorable Paul" Dozois, -Mini ster of'finance, on September 23. RING RESCUE PROGRAM The proposed oroer-in-council and regulations concerning the transfer and adminiatration of the Aline Rescue Program by the Department of Nstural Resources of the Province heve been c 2. finalized in discussions between the 0.A.W.A.fthe Q.M.M.A. and officers of the Department. As soon as an official resolution of transfer of property, equipment and rights of occupation is drewn up end signed by present holders, the change will take place. PRCUIiVCIAL (HIKING ASSOCIATIONS MEETING - September 15, 1568.
