Excerpt: ...ledges claiming to be silver-bearing of high grade ores were located during the past summer, but, like the gold prospects, have slipped away from the attention and have become completely eclipsed by the recent discoveries of tin, which gave rise to the next and more enduring excitement. Much has been claimed by the owners of the tin locations, the realization of one quarter of which would place it at the head of all the rich mineral discoveries made on this continent. That tin may be present to the amount of one, two or three per cent. is just possible, but there can be no doubt that the current reports of 70, 30, and even 15 per cent., are gross exaggerations. The actual presence of tin in most of the samples of so-called tin stone paraded about town is only presumptive, for assays and tests made by several of the most competent assayers of Salt Lake City show not even traces. _ It has been confidently affirmed by interested tin enthusiasts that specimens of mineral identical in character with those tested here, have yielded in the laboratories of able chemists in New York and Washington, as much as 30 and even 70 per cent. of tin. Such statements, however, cannot possibly deceive, as the simple test of gravity alone, will convince any one with ordinary experience in the handling of minerals, that but a low percentage of such a heavy metal as tin can possibly be contained in the vein stuff extracted from the claims in Weber district. It is further asserted that certain Cornishmen, professional adepts, have extracted from 15 to 18 per cent., by simply washing away the gangue, and fusing the concentrated stuff in the fire of a blacksmith's forge, while another expert of still more novel and inventive genius, reduces the ore and...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether you are a geologist, history buff, or rockhound, this booklet will be a helpful guide to Utah?s mining districts. The booklet is divided up into three parts: the first part provides general information on what a mining district is, how many mining districts are in Utah, types of mineral deposits found at these districts, and landownership issues. The second part includes individual mining-district discussions containing information on location, production, history, geology, mineralogy, and current/future operations. The third part includes a glossary of geologic terms and other useful resources in the appendices, such as a descriptive list of minerals found in the districts, geologic time scale, and a list of mineral resources of the mining districts.

Download or read book Geology of Millard County Utah written by Lehi F. Hintze and published by Utah Geological Survey. This book was released on 2003 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bulletin serves not only to introduce the non-geologist to the rich geology of Millard County, but also to provide professional geologists with technical information on the stratigraphy, paleontology, and structural geology of the county. Millard County is unique among Utah’s counties in that it contains an exceptionally complete billion-year geologic record. This happened because until about 200 million years ago the area of present-day Millard County lay near sea level and was awash in shallow marine waters on a continental shelf upon which a stack of fossil-bearing strata more than 6 miles (10 km) thick slowly accumulated. This bulletin summarizes what is known about these strata, as well as younger rocks and surficial deposits in the county, and provides references to scientific papers that describe them in greater detail. Mountains North 30 x 60 (1:100,000-scale) quadrangles. These companion maps and this bulletin portray the geology of Millard County more completely and accurately than any previously published work.
