The mean mass of primary cosmic rays with energies near 10 million GeV was determined by experimental detection of parallel penetrating particles at the Mt. Blanc Station. Each of the two spark chamber telescopes in the experimental apparatus has an area of 2 sq m and is made of six bigap spark chambers, four plastic scintillator layers, and four absorber layers. The results, in the form of muon number as a function of the electron number, are compared with the predictions of the scaling model using Elbert's parameterization of high-energy muons. A good agreement between experimental results and predictions is found for a mean primary mass of 10 to 30.
