Mining IndustryConcerned OverTax Uncertainty

International Nickel's decisionsregarding exploration and the de-velopment of new properties "willbe seriously affected by any funda-mental change in Canada's taxpolicies affecting the mining in-dustry", Henry S. Wingate, chair-man, stated in his address to theshareholders at the Company's an-nual meeting in Toronto April 23.

The mining Industry, for whichCanada is renowned throughoutthe world, is seriously concernedby "radical changes in tax policy"advocated by some, and the un-certainties of future policies, hesaid.

Thompson An ExampleRecalling Inco's decision to pro-

ceed with its vast development atThompson, Manitoba, after spend-ing 10 years and $10,000,000 in find-ing the orebody, Mr. Wingate saidthat the decision could have gonethe other way. "Clearly, under theconditions then existing, therewould have been no justificationfor our moving ahead when we didif we were not working in a coun-try with a long history of stability,and long-tan<Ung taxation policieswhich encouraged such a move."

The encouragement had beenjustified. The Thompson nickelcomplex produced about $90,000,000worth of exports last year, he re-ported, and "In so doing, it alonemade possible the Import of all thecitrus fruits enjoyed in Canada,whether they be fresh, canned orconcentrated or alternatively, italone made possible nearly enoughforeign exchange to Import all thetea and coffee drunk in Canada."

Raises Living StandardMr. Wingate cited the relation-

ship between mining growth and ahigh standard of living. He notedthat the industry has played "thefar-reaching, complex role of anexplorer and developer of thewilderness, an employer of man-power in large numbers, an in-vestor in facilities arid equipment,a technological innovator, an in-dustry heavily dependent on andcommitted to penetrating foreignmarkets, a large and dependableearner of foreign exchange, and apotent generator of secondarydomestic industries and services.In short it is a fact beyond argu-ment that through the years themining industry has been the focusof the economic development inthis country."

A communloation gap must bebridged in order that the generalpublic ean realize the special prob-lems as well as the contributionsof the country's mining industry,Inco's chairman urged. Miningventures involve unique risk, im-mense capital investments to de-velop the potential which an ore-body may represent, and a verylong time between discovery andproduction.

Maintaining Public TrustCustody of a natural resource

involves a kind of public trust, andminerals must be utilized intel-ligently so that all values are ex-tracted from the ore, and nothingof value is thrown away, Mr.Wingate said. The public shouldknow that by significant improve-ments in mining methods, and byhighly technical processing break-throughs, this trust is being main-tained. As an example, thechallenge presented by decliningCanadian nickel ore grades is beingmet by such technological innov-ations.

As part of its responsibilities,the mining industry must also givehigh priority to the abatement ofenvironmental pollution, the ohair-man said. He cited as an exampleInco's program of growing grasson its tailings area in the Sudburydistrict, and the 1,250-foot chim-ney, the tallest in the world, nowbeing built at the Copper Cliffsmelter complex "to assure thatair in the Sudbury area will becleaner than that of any industrialcommunity in Ontario".

Must Attract YouthAnother problem facing the min-

ing industry is to find means ofattracting more young people. Mr.Wingate pointed out that at thepresent time in all Canada thereare only 155 enrolled in under-graduate mining courses, and only39 are expected to receive under-graduate degrees in mining engi-neering this year.

"It is increasingly importantthat we study carefully how tomake our industry rewarding andattractive to the young, capableminds of today, with special em-phasis on the unique qualities ofour business - its increasing de-mand for highly qualified research

and scientific talent, its worldwidescope, its operations in remoteplaces, and its unique opportunityto coitrlbute to a national eco-nomic growth."

Referring to the nickel market,Mr. Wingate said it is highly un-likely that supply and demand willcome into balance in the next 12months. "Assuming no productionproblems related to our currentlabor negotiations, we expect ourown deliveries in 1969 to be some5 percent higher than last year.In 1969, all nickel producers willprobably put into the market from50 to 60 million pounds more thanthey did in 1968. We can expect tosee substantially larger yearly in-creases in 1970, 1971 and 1972."

To Inco WorkersRetired Pre-1965

The pension payments of formerInternational Nickel employees inCanada and the United Stateswho retired in 1964 or earlier arebeing adjusted to increase the pen-sioners' purchasing power, HenryS. Wingate, chairman of the com-pany, announced in his address toshareholders at the annual meet-ing in Toronto.

The percentage of increase willvary, graduating progressively from4 per cent for pensioners who re-tired in 1964 to 25 per cent forpre-1951 retirees. The supplementalpayments will be made to some2,000 ex-employees (salaried andhourly paid) and widows of pen-sioners. The adjustment was madeeffective April 1 and will be re-flected in checks being mailed laterthis month.

Some 1,480 pensioners in Canadawill benefit from the increases.About 530 pensioners in the UnitedStates are affected.

Percentage increases will applyas follows Employees who re-tired before 1951 will receive 25per cent more. Employees whoretired in 1951 will receive 23.5 percent; 1952, 22 per cent; 1953, 20.5per cent; 1954, 19 per cent; 1955,17.5 per cent; 1956, 16 per cent;1957, 14.5 per cent; 1958, 13 percent; 1959, 11.5 per cent; 1960, 10per cent; 1961, 8.5 per cent; 1962,7 per cent; 1963, 5.5 per cent; 1964,4 per cent.

International Nickel last ad just-ed the pensions of retired NorthAmerican employees in 1955. Thatincrease applied to pensions com-mencing in 1950 or earlier. In 1965,adjustments were made for pen-sioners in the United Kingdom.

Inco Platinum Medal Copper Refinery Addition in Final Stages of CompletionTo FormerCopper Cliff Resident

Ossian F. Wall!, president, North-ern College of Applied Arts andTechnology, has been awarded TheInco platinum medal for 1969 byThe Canadian Institute of Miningand Metallurgy

The award was presented at theannual dinner of the Institute onApr11 22 during the 71st annualgeneral meeting of the C.IM. inMontreal.

The platinum medal, donated byInternational Nickel and presentedannually, Is a mark of distinctionand recognition for outstanding

contribution to the mining andmetallurgical Industry in Canadaand was awarded "In recognitionof his contributions and servicesto the mining and metallurgicalindustry through his more than20-year career of teaching and ad-ministration at the Provincial In-stitute of Mining, HaileyburyCampus, whereby over 800 gradu-ates have entered the mining in-dustry.

Won Mond ScholarshipBorn at Copper Cliff in 1903, Mr.

Walli attended the Copper CliffPublic School and the SudburyHigh School where he was twicewinner of the Mond Scholarship.He graduated from Queen's Uni-versity, Kingston, with a B.Sc,degree in chemical and metallur-gical engineering in 1925.

As a student he gained practiealexperience at International Nickel'sCopper Cliff smelter and at Lev-ack, Murray, Creighton and Hol-linger mines. He joined Inco asan engineer at Creighton mine andlater as a chemist in the CopperCliff smelter.

In 1932 he started a 13-yearteaching career in chemistry,mathematics and mining subjects.He served as principal of theProvincial Institute of Mining atHaileybury from 1945 to 1967. Inaddition to administrative duties.he taught chemistry and ore ana-lysis to all classes for 17 years.In 1967 he was appointed presidentof the Northern College of AppliedArts and Technology with cam-puses at Haileybury, KirklandLake and South Porcupine.

In the final stages of completion,the 20,000-square foot extension ofthe tankhouse is a part of thecurrent $5,000,000 program of ex-pansion and modernization at thecopper refinery to facilitate hand-ling the copper production increasein International Nickel's Sudburydistrict operations.

The new structure has increasedthe tankhouse area to almost fiveacres, and contains 200 new tankswhich boosts the total of tanks1,560. Well illuminated by power-ful mercury vapour lamps, thenew area Is provided with sevencomplete air changes per hour bymeans of the ventilation ductsthat can be seen extending alongboth sides of the extension. Thestainless steel box-shaped enclo-sure in the right foreground ofthe picture contains high pressurehot water sprays to wash electro-lyte from the anodes and eathodesbefore they leave the building forfurther handling.

Long-Range MarketsInco Research Target

Until nickel supply more nearlycomes into balance with demand,International Nickel is concentra-ting its product research and de-velopment activities on longer-range markets, its 1968 annualreport stated.

Market development activities th1968 were principally concernedwith the use of nickel in suchgrowing markets as cryogenicapplications, the commercial aircraft and aerospace industries, airand water contaminant controlequipment, desalination applica-tions, the petrochemical industryand the automcytive industry.

Inco research led to the intro-duction of a number of new alloysin 1968, including cast nickel-base

First planting of the season took placein the park at Copper Cliff on May 1,so it was only fitting that the treeshould be a May Day tree, one of adozen new varieties which the Incoagricultural department will try outthis year for hardiness in the midnorth climate. It is both a shade andblossom tree and grows to a heightof 30 feet. Doing the planting areparks foreman Alex Gray and green-house attendant Gino Naccarato.Other new varieties of trees to betried this year include Ironwood,Grin Poplar, Morden Hawthorn, andWeeping Caragana.

The first aid team werepresumed to be engaged in loggingoperations when they heard a cryfor help and found two of theirworkmates trapped and extensivelyinjured when heavy timbers rolledoff a pile. About 15 minutes latera snowmobile came charging outof the bush and spilled its driver,who sufiered a fractured skull. Andfinally, to compound the confusion,an enraged Celestial in the campkitchen of Ross Butler's CateringCompany took after his assistantcook and clobbered him with ameet cleaver, Inflicting grievousbodily harm.

Despite the pressure built up bythis sequence of calamity, bothteams worked coolly and efficiently

against the 45-minute deadline,carefully checking out each patientwith the judges, diagnosing the in-juries, and proceeding with theappropriate treatment.

Fractwed arms, legs, knee capsand ribs, severe mixed haemor-rhage, arterial bleeding, shock, anda fractured skull were among theinjuries that had to be diagnosedand dealt with in this four-bar-relled test of St. John Ambulanceknow-how.

Standing amidst the forest of struc-

tural steel, transformers, horn-gapand disconnect switches, Circuit break-er's, and other gear at the new No. 4substation at Copper Cliff, it's hardto realize that with nothing more thana gentle hum this orderly complexcan be the power distribution centrefor practically all Inco's operations

The pride and joy of lnco's powerdepartment is No. 4 substation relayroom, where some 250 delicate relaysstand guard to detect network troublesand automatically control circuitbreakers to protect transmission lines,transformers and other related equip-ment.

In an emergency, the sensitive re-lays can react, transmit signals, andopen circuit breakers at No. 4 suband the Hydro's power supply sub-stations in Sudbury and Sault Ste.Marie, all within one twentieth of asecond.

Station instruments and controls arepowered by an independent supplyof 48-volt and 125-volt direct cur-rent which is provided by three setsof nickel cadmium batteries.

"I don't want to be young again,"the man replied. "I just want tokeep on getting older."

When installed early in1968 these two transformers, one ofwhich is seen in the left foreground,were the largest ever supplied to aCanadian industrial customer.

1968 Nickel UsesFollowed Pattern

Compared with 1967, Interna-tional Nickel notes no significantshifts in the pattern of nickelconsumption by major fields ofapplication in 1968. A breakdownof its estimate for the year follows

Free World Total 007 100%Geographically, the 1968 con-

supply and demand continuedthroughout 1968. This year, a.S thenickel industry's production rises,consumption is expected to riseaccordingly, But, barring majorchanges in the free world economy,nickel is likely to remain in tightsupply through 1969. The shortageis not expected to have importantadverse effects on the long-termgrowth of nickel consumption.

Four New Inco Mines PlannedFor Production During 1969

Regular production has com-menced at the Birchtree mine nearThompson, Manitoba, the first offour new Inco mines scheduled togo Into production this year, ac-cording to the Company's annualreport.

International Nickel's capitalprogram is expanding progressivelythe Company's Canadian nickel-producing capacity by more than30 per cent - to a rate greaterthan 600,000,000 pounds annually,by the latter part of 1971.

The other new mines that areexpected to start producing in1969 are the Little St.obie andKirkwood mines in the Sudburydistrict, and the Soab mine, partof the Thompson complex. Inter-nationJ Nickel's mine developmentand expansion program in Canadaalso involves five additional newmines scheduled to come on-stream in Ontario and Manitobawithin the next three years.

Ore Production RecordLast year, total ore production

from the company's producing

mines rose to a record 24,350,000dry short tons, an increase of some20 per cent over the former markset in 1967, the annual report dis-closes, Among other things, thisrefleots the first effects of capitalexpansions being undertaken atexisting underground and surfacefacilities concurrently with thenew mine projects in Canada. Thereport notes that there was anincreased dependence on ores oflower grade.

An accelerating program ofmechanization in mining oper-ations and the introduction of newore-recovery techniques contribut-ed to the increased ore production.

Ore ReservesInco's exploration and mine de-

velopment programs in the Sud-bury, Thompson and Shebandowanareas outlined sufficient new ore toincrease reserves above 1967, thereport states. The proven ore re-serves of the company in Canadastood at 370,970,000 dry short tonsat December 31, 1968, containing6,120,000 short tons of nickel and
