Download or read book Photograph Album Detailing the Construction of the Crosby Magnesite Mine in Washington State written by Crosby Magnesite Mining Company (Valley, Wash.) and published by . This book was released on 1918 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A photograph album chronicling the development of the Crosby Magnesite Mining Camp, with many images of life at camp and mining-related work. Magnesite is a mineral used in the making of steel; during World War I, the importation of magnesite came to an abrupt halt (foreign sources having been commandeered by the Allies) creating a surge in demand for local sources of the mineral. This album documents the construction of one such mine in Washington. The album is approximately 85 p. containing 180 mounted photographs, most approximately 2 x 3 inches. The photographs show various buildings, both inside and out, including the office, cook house, blacksmith shop, chemical laboratory, meat house, bunk house, and several individual dwellings. There are also photographs of the mining operation itself - the quarry, ore chute and kilns, as well as the railroad built to run between the quarry and the bunkers. Several shots show individuals around camp, including children of the miners, and the camp dogs, which are identified. There are photos of early Spokane, and Idaho, including the 4 July 1918 parade. One of the larger photographs shows the camp as seen from afar, giving the viewer a more complete picture of the camp's layout. Each photograph is labeled as to date and subject. A 1919 government hearing on magnesite production indicates that after spending $50,000 to $60,000 on the property at the Crosby mine, the magnesite was found unfit for use and the operation was abandoned. An interesting and detailed look at an early- 20th-century mining camp in the Pacific Northwest.
