Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lead and Zinc Deposits of Northwestern Illinois, Vol. 21 The Galena limestone is by far the most interesting and important mineral-bearing deposit in the State, being the principal depository of the ores of lead and zinc, the former of which has been successfully mined in the vicinity of Galena ever since the first settlement of the country by the French. These mines are Said to have been discovered by M. Le Sener, who made an exploring trip up the Mississippi in the year 1700, but no attempt was made to work the mines until a century later when Julien dubuque, a half-breed of French and Indian descent, obtained a grant of land from the Fox Indians on the west side of the Mississippi, including the present site of the city of Dubuque, and commenced the business of lead mining in 1788, which be prosecuted successfully until his death in 1810. From that time on, the business was gradually extended, and in 1823 the tide of emigration began to flow rapidly from Kentucky and some of the eastern states, toward this Eldorado of the northwest, and in the next succeeding decade, dig gings had extended over nearly the whole extent of the lead bearing rocks of this region, including also that part of the mineral region embraced in the present area of the States of Illinois and Wisconsin.
