Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Comstock Lode: Its Formation and History IT is fitting that a work on the structure of the Comstock Lode should be introduced by a description of the method employed in mining upon it. The known limits of the lode cover a space of feet, in a nearly due north and south direction (magnetic). At the time the existing mine maps were laid out, the variation of the needle in. That locality was 161} degrees east. The northern half of the lode has a direction a little more to the east than the magnetic meridian, and the southern half a strike which again is slightly more to the east than its neighbor. Great irregularities in the course occur locally, the strike varying in fact from north-east to north-west within short distances. Still the mean direction of the lode is almost coincident with the line of mag netic north. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Not illustrated. 1866 edition. Excerpt: ... Farther north, this rock covers the country to great extent. Sanidin-trachyte has never been found to contain silver-bearing veins; and in Washoe none occur in it, and yet it has evidently been mainly instrumental in the formation of the Comstock lode and other veins in that region. No geological events after that epoch are worth noticing, for our present object. Eruptions of basaltic rocks were considerable in adjoining parts of the Great Basin, but have been of little consequence in Washoe. Volcanic and eruptive activity gradually died away, and we behold now their last stages in the action of thermal springs, such as Steamboat Springs. The surface underwent but slow and gradual denudation; and the events of the volcanic period are recorded so perfectly and distinctly in the nature and association of the rocks, as to aid us greatly in explaining the mode of formation of the Comstock vein. GENERAL STRUCTURE OF COMSTOCK VEIN. The Comstock vein runs, nearly in the direction of the magnetic meridian (the variation being fifteen degrees east) along the eastern slope of the Mount Davidson range, which descends at a steep grade until it abuts against the gentle slope of three " Flats," on which, at an altitude of from five thousand eight hundred to six thousand two hundred feet, are situated the towns of Virginia, Gold Hill, and American City. The outcroppings of the vein extend in a broad belt along the foot of the steep grade and immediately above the three towns. The course of the vein, as far as yet explored, is somewhat dependent on the shape of the slope, as it partakes of all its irregularities, passing the ravines in concave bends and inclosing the foot of the different ridges in convex curves; the greatest convexity is around the...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nevada’s Comstock Mining District has been the focus of legend since it first burst into international prominence in the late 1850s, and its principal settlement, Virginia City, endures in the popular mind as the West’s quintessential mining camp. But the authentic history of the Comstock is far more complex and interesting than its colorful image. Contrary to legend, Virginia City spent only its first few years as a ramshackle mining camp. The mining boom quickly turned it into a thriving urban center, at its peak one of the largest cities west of the Mississippi, replete with most of the amenities of any large city of its time. The lure of the area’s fabulous wealth attracted a remarkably heterogenous population from around the world and offered employment to dozens of trades and thousands of people, both men and women, representing every one of the region’s diverse ethnic groups. Ronald James’s brilliant account of the Comstock’s long and eventful history—the first comprehensive study of the subject in over a century—examines every aspect of the region and employs information gleaned from hundreds of written sources, interviews, archeological research, computer analysis, folklore, gender studies, physical geography, and architectural and art history, as well as over fifty rare photographs, many of them previously unpublished.
