Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Mineral Reserves: How to Make America Industrially Independent Within the last few weeks there has been a lively demand for information regarding possible sources of mineral products, both crude and manufactured. A considerable volume of correspondence on this subject has come to the Geological Survey, and with it the opportunity to act as an agent in bringing consumer and producer into touch with each other. Equally important is the function of pointing out possible sources of minerals which hitherto have been imported from European countries, as well as indicating what supplies are available to meet the new demands for exports.

This infant among the mineral industries of the United States now supplies nearly a million tons of excellent household fuel that has a value at the producers' plants of eight and a half million dollars. In comparison with 1925 the production of net tons in 1926 represents an increase of 19 per cent; in comparison with 1923, the increase is 43 per cent.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mineral Resources of the United States, 1927, Vol. 2: Nonmetals The production of fuel briquets in 1927 was net tons' valued at according to reports courteously furnished by the operators of briquetting plants. In comparison with 1926, the production showed a decrease of tons, but in comparison with 1925, an increase of and with 1924, an increase of As demand in 1926 had been artificially stimulated by the anthracite strike, a decrease in 1927-was anticipated. That the sales of briquets declined only per cent below the level of the strike year at a time when anthracite was in abundant supply is an indication of the progress of the briquetting industry. In fact, production in the month of December, 1927, which amounted to tons, set a new monthly record, exceeding by tons the maximum monthly production of 1926. As shown by the following table, the decrease from 1926 was con fined to the Eastern States; on the Pacific coast and in the Central States production in 1927 showed an increase of about 9 per cent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mineral Resources of the United States, 1921, Vol. 1: Metals Little net change in the quantity of coal in storage occurred during the year. On January 1, 1921, consumers' stocks were about tons. A steady decline during the first half of the year was offset by a rapid accumulation Of stocks in anticipation of the railroad workers' strike, and by December 31 stocks amounted to tons, or 41 days' supply at the rate of consumption then prevailing. The expected miners' strike, which began April 1, 1922, caused far-sighted consumers to increase their stocks still more during the first quarter of the new year. In sharp contrast to the bituminous - coal industry, the anthracite mines continued steadily at work through most Of 1921. The total output of freshly mined coal, from which the requirements of house holders are met, exceeded that Of 1920. The surplus in excess Of current requirements was stored by the producers. Not until late in November did the cumulative effect of the industrial depression and a mild winter force a lessening of activity in the anthracite region.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Minerals In the preparation of this little book the writer has striven to answer questions rather than to rehearse facts. It has been made increasingly plain to him, in the course of his experience that the bulk of the Museum public demand not a text book, however simple, but a statement of the principles upon which may be built up an understanding of such an assemblage of natural objects as the one that has been brought together in the Morgan Memorial Hall of the American Museum of Natural History. The present volume is then an attempt to put into a simple and popular form the How? And the Why? Of mineralogy, to the end that the Visitor-may be enabled to interpret what he sees around him in this Hall. To an extent it has been written around the Introductory Series of the Collee tion, but in a larger sense the book and the exhibit have been prepared together, so that they are closely linked in idea and presentation. Much of the text has been suggested by questions put to the writer by those who in times past have sought information regarding the things of which it treats, and it is in the hope that some of these questions may thus be answered that he now presents it to them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Preliminary Report on the Mineral Resources of Georgia, 1910 For some years there has been an ever increasing demand on the State Geological Survey for general information on the State's mineral resources not heretofore supplied in any one of the various publications Of the department. To meet this demand this volume has been issued with the hope that it will not only meet the Object for which it was published, but also, at the same time, stimulate activity in the develop ment Of our mineral resources. It must be borne in mind that this report is by no means intended to be a comprehensive report on the mineral resources Of the State, but only a pre liminary report covering, in a general way, only the principal economic minerals. To those who wish to pursue the differ ent subjects further than here discussed they will find a num ber Of references after each subject, which will be of especial value.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from California Mines and Minerals Compiled by chas. G. Yale, Statistician State Mining Bureau. HE mining interests oi_ the State of California are so diversified, and the industry is extended over so wide an area, that it is difficult to describe the conditions which exist without using many pages of printed matter. For this reason it has been considered proper, in this pamphlet, to give merely a record of results, which will show in plain figures what is being accomplished by the miners of the State. This record shows that some forty-four mineral substances are being exploited, the annual valuation of which is now and increasing at the rate of about yearly, as capital is invested and more mines are opened. The older mines, too, having been well developed and equipped, are increasing their annual output, and thus also proving their permanency and value with depth. The climatic conditions are favorable to mining operations throughout the State, and means of transportation have been so improved as to greatly lessen costs of supplies, etc. There are abundant opportunities for the safe and profitable investment of capital in the various branches of the industry, as numerous claims which have been located have never been properly developed or equipped, their owners lacking the necessary means.

This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mineral Resources and Mineral Industry of Oregon for 1903, Vol. 1 In presenting herewith an account of the mineral industry of Oregon the author, in justice to the subject and himself. Feels the necessity of explaining the exact nature and scope of the work undertaken. An ideal discussion of the mineral resources of a country would involve, perhaps, an historical account of the mining industry in the several districts; a study of geological features; details descriptive of development, equipment, mining and metal lurgical practice; statistics of production and labor; as well as whatever other matters there might be which would have either an economic or scientific bearing upon the industry in question. The complete attainment of such an ideal, however, would be the task of a thoroughly organized geological survey, adequately equipped, liberally supplied with funds, and properly invested with the authority necessary for carrying out its purposes. Even under such advantageous circumstances, in a state as large as Oregon, there would be some dificulty in making a complete statement of condi tions before several years of work were done. It became an absolute necessity for the author, therefore, in taking up this work single-handed, to set a limit within which it might be possible to accomplish something in the time at his disposal. With the means at hand the possibilities resolved themselves into a consideration of the places of occurrence of the various mineral deposits as far as knowledge could be obtained of them; their mineral ogical character; ownership; development; and equipment. Nor has it always been possible to get all of this information with respect to a given property, in such cases there has been given simply a state ment of the facts obtainable. It is thought that all of the more important, known mineral deposits of the state have received men tion. In case any have been omitted it is because through the channels of information available for this work nothing has been heard from them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rocks, Minerals and Stocks Owing to differences in speed between the inner and outer portions of the great spheroid of whirling gas, the outer portion separated into rings, which broke into pieces and the pieces wound themselves up into smaller spheroids. Other rings separated from these and also from the central mass and broke up into other pieces, and so on, until we find our Solar System is a system of moons circulating around planets which in turn circulate around a great central mass or Sun. Old Saturn still has a couple of rings and a lot of moons racing around him, showing that at one time the Old fellow was a young fellow and delighted in wearing rings. Th'ere is no doubt but that our Earth and the other planets and moons in our cluster were all at one time or another as hot as the Sun, but, being smaller than the Sun, they have parted with their heat more rapidly. This heat was of course latent in the original atoms, and was roused into activity during the chemical changes and physical condensation through which the gaseous materials have passed while turning into solid rock, etc., and this heat has been radiating into space all the time or being con verted into other forms of energy, or locked up in latent form, so that now we have very little of our own heat left, and are dependent on the Sun for our supplies.
