Book Description
Excerpt from Mines and Minerals of Washington: Second Annual Report Despite the facts I have hereinbefore recited, I have to report that, as during the previous year, I have given my undivided atten tion to the demands of the state from a mineralogical standpoint, in so far as I have been, alone and unaided; able to do. Despite hinderances innumerable, annoyances indescribable, and laboring under a stigma attached to both the mining bureau and this office by reason of events of a character political and in no way attribut able to the conduct at least of this office, I have pursued my work without cessation, and in order that the affairs and operations of this office may be more fully illustrated to you, append this, my second annual report.

Book Description
Leading mining historian Kerby Jackson introduces us to a classic mining work in this important re-issue of "Metal Mines of Washington." Unavailable since 1921, this important publication was originally published by the Washington Geologic Survey and has been unavailable for nearly ninety years. Widely considered a masterpiece on the Washington Mining Industry, "Metal Mines of Washington" sheds light on the important details of Washington's early mining years. Featured are details on hundreds of gold, silver, copper, lead and other metallic mineral mines. Included are hard to find details on the mineral resources of this state, as well as the locations of historic mines. Lavishly illustrated with maps and historic photos and complete with a glossary to explain any technical terms found in the text, this is one of the most important works on mining in the State of Washington. No prospector or miner should be without it if they are interested in mining in Washington. Note: This edition is a facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As such, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.

Book Description
Minerals are part of virtually every product we use. Common examples include copper used in electrical wiring and titanium used to make airplane frames and paint pigments. The Information Age has ushered in a number of new mineral uses in a number of products including cell phones (e.g., tantalum) and liquid crystal displays (e.g., indium). For some minerals, such as the platinum group metals used to make cataytic converters in cars, there is no substitute. If the supply of any given mineral were to become restricted, consumers and sectors of the U.S. economy could be significantly affected. Risks to minerals supplies can include a sudden increase in demand or the possibility that natural ores can be exhausted or become too difficult to extract. Minerals are more vulnerable to supply restrictions if they come from a limited number of mines, mining companies, or nations. Baseline information on minerals is currently collected at the federal level, but no established methodology has existed to identify potentially critical minerals. This book develops such a methodology and suggests an enhanced federal initiative to collect and analyze the additional data needed to support this type of tool.
