A Summary Of Mining And Metalliferous Mineral Resources In The State Of Washington

Leading mining historian Kerby Jackson introduces us to a classic mining work in this important re-issue of "Metal Mines of Washington." Unavailable since 1921, this important publication was originally published by the Washington Geologic Survey and has been unavailable for nearly ninety years. Widely considered a masterpiece on the Washington Mining Industry, "Metal Mines of Washington" sheds light on the important details of Washington's early mining years. Featured are details on hundreds of gold, silver, copper, lead and other metallic mineral mines. Included are hard to find details on the mineral resources of this state, as well as the locations of historic mines. Lavishly illustrated with maps and historic photos and complete with a glossary to explain any technical terms found in the text, this is one of the most important works on mining in the State of Washington. No prospector or miner should be without it if they are interested in mining in Washington. Note: This edition is a facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface.
