Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the importance and dependence of specific mineral commodities increase, so does concern about their supply. The United States is currently 100 percent reliant on foreign sources for 20 mineral commodities and imports the majority of its supply of more than 50 mineral commodities. Mineral commodities that have important uses and face potential supply disruption are critical to American economic and national security. However, a mineral commodity's importance and the nature of its supply chain can change with time; a mineral commodity that may not have been considered critical 25 years ago may be critical today, and one considered critical today may not be so in the future. The U.S. Geological Survey has produced this volume to describe a select group of mineral commodities currently critical to our economy and security. For each mineral commodity covered, the authors provide a comprehensive look at (1) the commodity's use; (2) the geology and global distribution of the mineral deposit types that account for the present and possible future supply of the commodity; (3) the current status of production, reserves, and resources in the United States and globally; and (4) environmental considerations related to the commodity's production from different types of mineral deposits. The volume describes U.S. critical mineral resources in a global context, for no country can be self-sufficient for all its mineral commodity needs, and the United States will always rely on global mineral commodity supply chains. This volume provides the scientific understanding of critical mineral resources required for informed decisionmaking by those responsible for ensuring that the United States has a secure and sustainable supply of mineral commodities.

This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mineral Resources of Bland County in Southwestern Virginia The range of mineral occurrence in Southwestern Virginia and especially in the mountain county of Bland is wide and varied, comprising within its scope Building Stones (granite, syenite, gneiss, sandstone and limestone), Non-metallic Minerals (pyrite, pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite, fluorite, silica, ocher, manganese, feldspar, asbestos, talc and soapstone, fullers earth, barite and gypsum), Cement Materials. Clays, Copper, Zinc and Lead (sphalerite, calamine and galenite), Iron Ores (oriskany, hematite, magnetite and limonite) and Coal (bituminous, semi-bituminous, Pocahontas, Montgomery-Pulaski and Bland-Wythe fields) of the highest steam and coking grade. Iron ore occurs in deposits of remarkable richness, the beds of ore being from 20 to 100 feet in thickness and many miles long. The western foothills of the Blue Ridge are lined with brown hematite ore, solid masses of it appearing along the Alleghenies. The yield of brown hematite from this region comprises an important prccentage of the total output of this variety in the County, and also constitutes the bulk of iron ore production in the State. The lead and zinc deposits of Wythe County, adjoining Bland County, have been worked for more than 125 years, and furnished lead to both the Continental and Confederate Armies. Copper deposits are extensive in Southwestern Virginia and numerous noted deposits have long been the seat of an important industry. The sandstones of the Mountains, the limestones and slates of the Valleys, and the granites and cement materials which are widely distributed afford an abundant supply of building materials. From the fertilizing marls and green-sands of Tidewater westward to the vast coal and metalliferous deposits near the Kentucky and West Virginia lines, is spread a great variety of mineral wealth, which affords such basis as to make the mining industry an important factor in the industrial activity of the State. The mining of coal in Virginia began in 1775, near Richmond. From the beginning of this industry until 1789, the entire output went to supply the local demand. From this time until the building of the Norfolk and Western Railway in 1882, the annual shipments from Virginia have increased up to about 145,000 tons, and then followed the development of the great coal deposits of Southwestern Virginia, notably the Pocahontas region, and the State soon came into prominence as a great coal producer, the most important deposits being in the great Appalachian region.
