With one-third of nil the silver to
Hit' world today having come from tlu?
mines of Mex loo, the nietallurgle I?1k
tory of this country has fully Justified]
Humboldt's famous description of It a*
the "treasure hoi.iso of the world," ac- j
cording to a bulletin issued by the
National (Geographic Society of Wash- !
lngtou, which says:
A elose contender with the IIuIUhI
States for the tlrst place In the pro
duction of sliver- the two having pro
dwed iu?a rly seventy i?er ivnl of the
world's output in 101 1 and ranking
fifth as gold producer, Mexico is easi
ly maintaining its position as one of
the world's richest nations with ro
j sjH'ct to minerahf, a inmltion it has held
since the Spanish conquistadores llrst
began to extort gold from t ho van
quished Azt?s\s.
? When t'ortess landed In Mcxleo he
told the natives that, the Spaniards
suffered from "a disease which only
gold covdd cure," and the chivalrous,
credulous Aztecs, It rs said, sent the
Kurojieaus great wheels of precious
metal as well as ornaments of all sorts,
which reckoned in values of today were
worth $:?>, 000,000.
Immediately after the conquest the
S] Milliards begau to work the gold and
silver mines of Mexico, but many min
eralogists are of the opiulou that there
are gold mini's which were known to
the Aztecs and worked by tlieiu but
which even to this day have l>eeu hid
den from the white man, the Indian,
actuated by .superstition, keeping their
secret. As if to substitute this- atti
tude of the natives, the handsomest
monument that graces the City of Mex
ico between the capital and the castle
of Ohapultepec stands to the memory
of Cuauhtemoc, the Aztec prince who
refused to reveal to the conquerors
the source of his people's wealth, even
though his torturers in their endeavor
to make )ilrt\ flisclopu the whereabouts
of this vast Wealth burned the soles
from h Is feet
The modern invest igaor of social and
industrial conditions paints drab pic
tures of the natives in some of the
Mexican mines, but these are bright
pages compared with the black chap
ters of the early days in the rich mines
of Cuanajuato, where the laborers, un
der the cruel taskmasters, tiled from
great depths up notched i>olos, bear
Ing 100-pound bags of ore on their
backs, and then were driven back af
ter scarcely time for a breath of fresh
air. It was not until about the time
of the death of Shakespeare, whose
tercentenary the world is celebrating
this month, that a lajv was- passed in
this mining district "forbidding the
branding of slaves 011 the face.".
Brutal taskmasters did not always
escape unpunished, however. vFor In
stance, in the Valenciana mines, which
produced $300,000,000 worth of silver
in llfty years, the slaves rose in 170(1
and' massacred every white man in that
region.
Aii ajxnryphal story, strongly rem
iniscent of the Peruvian tale of n fire
built against an overwheiirnng silver
boulder, is told of the discovery of tho
rich silver deposits of the Guanajuato
district. It Is related that a band of
muleteers discovered in that neighbor
hood one morning the glitter of refined
silver in the dead ashes of their camp
fire.
All tile stories of early minttig oj>er
atlons In MexTco are not blotched with
the blood of peons, inhere is the In
teresting, authentic account' of the
famous Avino mine, worked as an open
quarry and deeded by the owner to all
the white men who would bifid their
houses close together for mutual pro7
tection against hostile tribes. This was
the begl nninjf of the prosperous City
of Sunshine, Durango. __
It is of the purango vicinity, inci
dentally, that one of the most pathetic
stories of an ancient prospector's blast
ed hopes is told. Thirty yearn after
the conquest a wealthy Kpanlgrd, hear
ing of a mountain of solid silver, start
ecj on a Journey1 of exploratiop. He
traveled for days, hoping each morn
ing that the rising sun would reveal
a gigantic peak of gllateni ng troawu re.
At last it came in view. He hastened
on, but when he reached the base of
the mountain he discovered that it
was of iron instead of silver. Crush
ed In spirit, he camped that night at
the foot of the mass of ferrous ore.
Indians fell upon his hand and some
of his followers were killed while the
leader himself was mortally wounded.
He died while making his way back to
the Capital. This adventurer's name Is
perpetuated in the famous mineral
mountain, Cerro de Mercado, one of
the richest outcropping* of Iron ore in
Hie world. .
No ancient mines of Mexico were
more Important to the aborigines than
these of obsidian, the glassy volcanic
rock from which the As tecs made most
of their edged tools an? many of their
weapons of war.
Innumerable are the stories of lost
mines which. -Imaginative prospectors
arts constantly "rediscovering" for the
benefit of ertduloa* investors. About
the searches for soma at thaw el do
ratios there. could be written historic*
