DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Mining Districts of the Eastern States Excursion A - 2 (see fig. 1) is planned for economic geologists and includes most of the important metal-mining districts and some of the nonmetallic and coal districts of the southeastern United States and the Mississippi Valley. The duration of the excursion will be 11 days and 12 nights. Because of the large area traversed the excursion Will necessitate miles (over kilometers) of railroad travel. In order to utilize the time to the best advantage, travel between the districts will be at night and the days will be devoted to the geologic visits. A wide range of mineral deposits are included in the itinerary, embracing metals, nonmetals, and coal. Half a day will be spent at the classic petrographic locality of Magnet Cove, Arkansas; otherwise the time of the excursion will be devoted entirely to economic geology. The districts that will be visited and the principal features of interest that will be shown are listed below. Pittsburgh district, Pennsylvania: The Pittsburgh coal seam is the most valuable single coal seam in the United States and underlies a large area in western Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio, and Kentucky. Pittsburgh is also the greatest iron and steel manufacturing center in the United States. Visits will be made to the Warden coal mine of the Pittsburgh Coal Co., on the Pittsburgh seam, and its coal-washing plant, and to the Aliquippa works of the Jones 8: Laughlin Steel Co. Bedford, Indiana: The Bedford oolitic limestone district has the largest production of building stone in the country.
