Excerpt: ...the recovery of a mining title, or for damages to any such title, shall be affected by the fact that the paramount title to the land on which such mines lie is in the United States, but each case shall be adjudged by the law of possession." The only other two instances before the general law of 1866, where Congress recognized possessory rights or rules of miners, or granted a fee in mineral lands, were local in their character and application; one was section 2 of the Act of May 5, 1866, (14 U. S. Stat. at Large, 43), concerning boundaries of the State of Nevada; and the other was the Act of Juy 25, 1866, (14 U. S. Stat. at Large, 242), commonly known as the Sutro Tunnel Act. INTRODUCTION OF LODE LAW OF l866. On May 28, 1866, Senator Conness, chairman of the committee on mines and mining in the United States Senate, reported back to that body Senate bill No. 257, entitled "An Act to regulate the occupation of mineral lands, and to extend the right of pre-emption thereto," and recommended the passage of a substitute. In his report, he took strong grounds against all measures for the sale of the mines to the highest bidders and for the taxation of those engaged in working them. He claimed that it was the first duty of Congress to set at rest all doubts and apprehensions affecting mining property by the promulgation of a policy which should give full and complete protection to all existing possessory rights upon liberal conditions, with full and complete legal guarantees, and which should provide the most generous conditions looking toward further explorations and developments. He especially commends the features of the bill recognizing the rules and regulations of the miners: "Another feature of the bill recommended," says the report, "is, ...

Download or read book Mining North America written by John R. McNeill and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2017-07-03 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Over the past five hundred years, North Americans have increasingly turned to mining to produce many of their basic social and cultural objects. From cell phones to cars and roadways, metal pots to wall tile and even talcum powder, minerals products have become central to modern North American life. As this process has unfolded, mining has also indelibly shaped the natural world and North Americans' relationship with it. Mountains have been honeycombed, rivers poisoned, and forests leveled. The effects of these environmental transformations have fallen unevenly across North American societies. Mining North America examines these developments. Drawing on the work of scholars from Mexico, the United States, and Canada, this book explores how mining has shaped North America over the last half millennium. It covers an array of minerals and geographies while seeking to draw mining into the core debates that animate North American environmental history generally. Taken together, the authors' contributions make a powerful case for the centrality of mining in forging North American environments and societies"--Provided by publisher.
Download or read book Mining California written by Andrew C. Isenberg and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2010-08-24 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An environmental History of California during the Gold Rush Between 1849 and 1874 almost $1 billion in gold was mined in California. With little available capital or labor, here's how: high-pressure water cannons washed hillsides into sluices that used mercury to trap gold but let the soil wash away; eventually more than three times the amount of earth moved to make way for the Panama Canal entered California's rivers, leaving behind twenty tons of mercury every mile—rivers overflowed their banks and valleys were flooded, the land poisoned. In the rush to wealth, the same chain of foreseeable consequences reduced California's forests and grasslands. Not since William Cronon's Nature's Metropolis has a historian so skillfully applied John Muir's insight—"When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe"—to the telling of the history of the American West. Beautifully told, this is western environmental history at its finest.
