Book excerpt: Excerpt from Epitome of the Economic Geology of New Mexico In presenting this Epitome of the Economic Geology of New Mexico, it is to be hoped that what is herein offered may be conducive to a more intelligent understanding and appreciation of the dormant mineralogical resources of a commonwealth of which, comparatively speaking, but little is known. Historically, New Mexico is the oldest and most widely known of any section in the United States; commercially, its importance is yet but meagerly comprehended. Although New Mexico is the cradle of the mining industry in the Rocky Mountains and Pacific Slope regions, peculiar political conditions have materially retarded its development. The fact, however should not be overlooked that the initial impulse received in the development of the Great West was due to the discovery of gold in Santa Fe County at the base of the Ortiz Mountains, in the year 1828. This discovery was made twenty years before the great gold excitement at Coloma in California and thirty years before the find on Cherry Creek in Colorado. The discovery of placer gold in New Mexico marks the beginning of modern American methods that have so effectually revolutionized every phase in the art of mining and in the science of metallurgy. The evolution of the old wooden bowl, known as the "batea," used in these early diggings, is symbolized in the modern gold pan. Crude designs of the first "rockers" and sluice boxes for washing the auriferous gravels in trans-Mississippi fields, virtually had their inception in this primary gold camp, in Santa Fe County. Among the first stamp mills constructed in the United States may be mentioned the one at Dolores for milling the ores from the celebrated Ortiz mine in Santa Fe County; one at the gold camp of Pinos Altos in Grant County; and one at the Aztec mine at the head of Ute Creek on Baldy Mountain, in Colfax County. The first experiments in ore concentration in the West were conducted by J. Amberg, a German metallurgist at Pinos Altos, in the early sixties of the past century. It should also be noted that the first gold lode or vein discovered and worked west of the Mississippi was made in the year 1833, on the famous Sierra del Oro, constituting what is now known as the Ortiz mine. In the Los Cerrillos district, a few miles west of the Ortiz Mountains, exist what appear to be prehistoric workings on a metalliferous vein of lead and silver, known as Mina del Tierra. This antique working is of unusual interest with incline and nearly vertical shafts connecting and totalling, perhaps, over two hundred feet of work, including drifts and slopes.

Download or read book The Rio Chama written by Paul W. Bauer and published by . This book was released on 2021-12 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the course of the hundreds of Rio Chama rafting trips that we've logged during the last 30 years, none of us has ever had a bad trip. Such is the magic of the Rio Chama. No matter the weather, the water level, the season, the crowded Big Eddy boat ramp on a blistering Sunday afternoon, or even the coffee forgotten at home, the Rio Chama remains "The People's River." Its stunning beauty, plus its exceptional camping, user-friendly whitewater, and mostly predictable flows, combine to create one of the Southwest's premiere, multi-day, river running experiences.The spectacular, towering canyon walls of the Wild & Scenic section through the remote Chama River Canyon Wilderness is New Mexico's own "Grand Canyon." The geology of the Rio Chama is so exceptional that this river is ideally suited for a river guide with a geological theme. And so, following the release of the Rio Grande geologic river guide in 2011, we turned our (part-time) attention to the Rio Chama. Although most Rio Chama recreation is focused on the El Vado to Big Eddy stretch, thedecision was easily made to include the entire boatable section, from the highlands in Colorado to the confluence with the Rio Grande, as each section of the river displays its own visual spectacles and assortment of adventures. Plus, the geology is magnificent and diverse along the entire length of the river.

Download or read book Economic Geology written by Walter L. Pohl and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-03-03 with total page 725 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanity’s ever-increasing hunger for mineral raw materials, caused by a growing global population and ever increasing standards of living, has resulted in economic geology becoming a subject of urgent importance. This book provides a broad panorama of mineral deposits, covering their origin and geological characteristics, the principles of the search for ores and minerals, and the investigation of newly found deposits. Practical and environmental issues that arise during the life cycle of a mine and after its closure are addressed, with an emphasis on sustainable and "green" mining. The central scientific theme of the book is to place the extraordinary variability of mineral deposits in the frame of fundamental geological processes. The book is written for earth science students and practicing geologists worldwide. Professionals in administration, resource development, mining, mine reclamation, metallurgy, and mineral economics will also find the text valuable. Economic Geology is a fully revised translation of the the fifth edition of the German language text Mineralische und Energie-Rohstoffe.
