Walcott and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-08-20 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twenty-First Annual Report of the United States Geological Survey to the Secretary of the Interior, 1899-1900, Vol. 6 of 7: Mineral Resources of the United States, 1899, Metallic Products, Coal, and Coke The arrangement and scope of this volume are practically the same as in the fifteen volumes of the series, Mineral Resources of the United States, which have preceded it. The object of the volume is to record the developments in the mineral industries of the United States since the last report. The reports should be consulted together. Every chapter treated in this report is a census of the productive fea tures of the industry as complete as possible with the means at disposal. The statistics of the production of gold and silver, as usual, are the work of the Director of the Mint, Treasury Department and are accepted as official. The statistics of the. Imports and exports of minerals, which form an essential part of the volume, are obtained through the courtesv of the Chief of the Bureau of Statistics, Treasury Department. The totals given below will be found to differ somewhat from those published on the chart showing the mineral products of the United States from 1890 to 1899. This is caused by the receipt of revised figures from special agents in charge of the statistics of some of the more important minerals.

This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First, Second, and Third Annual Reports of the United States Geological Survey of the Territories: For the Years 1867, 1868, and 1869, Under the Department of the Interior The popular demand for a complete series of the Annual Reports of the United States Geological Survey of the Territories under my charge has been so great that the Secretary of the Interior has ordered the printing of a second edition of the first, second, and third annual reports in one volume. The survey in its present form commenced in the spring of 1867, with a small appropriation of $5,000 made by Congress for the examination of Nebraska; in 1868 it was continued in the Territory of Wyoming with a similar sum of $5,000; in 1869 it was extended to Colorado and New Mexico, with an increased appropriation of $10,000. During the years 1867 and 1868 the survey was conducted under the General Land-Office, and the first and second annual reports were included in the reports of the Commissioner. Early in 1869 the survey was placed by Congress under the Secretary of the Interior, and the third annual report was published as an independent volume. These reports are now entirely out of print. Although they were written in the field and forwarded to Washington in detached portions, and, in the case of the first and second reports, printed without the supervision of the writer, I have thought it best to make no alterations or additions in the present reprint, but to let the reports continue to mark the steps of progress of the survey from year to year. In the spring of 1870 I presented before the Committee on Appropriations of the House of Representatives a plan for the geological and geographical exploration of the Territories of the United States. This plan looked forward to the gradual preparation of a series of geographical and geological maps on a uniform scale, embracing each of the Territories in accordance with the boundary-lines. In this way these maps would become of great practical as well as scientific value to each of the Territories examined. In accordance with this plan, maps of Kansas, Nebraska, Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming, Colorado, and New Mexico are in an advanced state of preparation. As soon as the details of the geology are more fully worked out, these maps will be issued. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
