You are very welcome!

Every state has a department of mines and geology, economic geology, mines and minerals - something. And most of them produce first-rate publications, tailored to each area, and available either low-cost or free. Then there are all the US government resources.

There's no reason for any prospector or miner to be short of excellent reference materials - they just have to look.

Good luck to all,

The Old Bookaroo

You are absolutely correct on these publications ! Here in Misery the Missouri Department of Natural Resources has a list of publications that "we the people" have already paid to have done. The master list of publications is free BUT there are some items that will cost you to get. I have used this a lot and have posted this info to many websites and clubs here in Missouri! A great resource for those that'll use them!!
