The Relationship Of Regional Structural Geology To The Ore Deposits In The Southeastern Missouri Mining District, Jack Alexander James Jan 1951

The Relationship Of Regional Structural Geology To The Ore Deposits In The Southeastern Missouri Mining District, Jack Alexander James

Doctoral Dissertations

"The lead deposits in the Southeastern Missouri mining district have been examined by numerous geologists and mining engineers since the original discovery about 1720. A list of the men who have reported on them includes some of the outstanding students of ore deposits.

The regional geology in the mining district either was unknown or only vaguely known when most of the early examinations were made, and the discussions of the structural geology are restricted in scope owing to the lack of detailed information. The reports based on these examinations, although excellent for their time, are incomplete in view of the …

"The area consists of a strip of country twelve to twenty five miles wide and nearly seventy miles long, extending from Stiles in Reagan County southwest-ward across Crockett County and Pecos County to the Big Canyon Ranch in Terrell County. Map #2 accompanying this report is a small scale geological map of the general region, which shows the location of the general area covered for this report with reference to drainage railroads &c.. The entire area worked in detail comprises nearly 1300 sq. miles or over 800,000 acres"--Location and topography, page 1.


Economic Geology Of Northern Angola, Artileus Vosteen Eulich Jan 1924

Economic Geology Of Northern Angola, Artileus Vosteen Eulich

Professional Degree Theses

"Most of the mineral deposits have been known to exist for over a generation but efforts to mine them usually met with failure. The most signal discovery, that of diamonds, was made only in recent years. They are the only substance coming under the category of mineral which are being exploited on a large scale. Energetic efforts are being made to find petroleum in commercial quantities. There are still vast areas practically unexplored which if thoroughly prospected might lead to more discoveries. It is difficulty, however, for one who has prospected for two years in Angola without any particular success …
