| Abstract/Notes | The primary purpose of this report is to present a brief annotated list of all the metallic mineral occurrences in Washington known to the Division of Mines and Geology. The desirability of making available to the public a large amount of unpublished data in the Division files has long been recognized, and this report includes all this previously unpublished information as well as a summary of all the available published data on metallic mineral occurrences in the state. Through the use of maps it is possible to show the distribution of the various minerals and in the text the individual deposits are briefly described and also referenced-thus providing the reader with a convenient foundation for a more comprehensive study of any metal in its various mineral forms or of any specific mine or prospect in the state. An effort has been made to include in this inventory all the metallic mineral occurrences known in the state even though many of the deposits are obviously of negligible value. This has been done because in the past many mineral occurrences which have been considered to have no importance have, for one reason or another, later proven to be of considerable value. This is a situation which, b~cause of increasing demand for metals, new technological developments, and improved ore-finding techniques, may be expected to develop even more frequently in the future. The title of this report is actually somewhat a misnomer, as this is really an inventory of the occurrences of the various metals in their mineral forms rather than of the minerals themselves. This may appear to be splitting hairs, but the point is, by using this report a person may look up all known occurrences of copper in Washington but he could not readily find all the occurrences of any given copper mineral. | ||
