Excerpt from New Mexico Mineral Deposits Except Fuels, Vol. 4: December, 1929 With the exhaustion of the supply of former publications on the mineral resources of New Mexico, has come an increasing demand for information on that subject. In 1904 there was published by the Territorial Board of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition Managers of New Mexico a volume entitled "New Mexico Mines and Minerals." The information contained in this volume was collected and prepared by Fayette A. Jones. The volume is an invaluable reference on the history of mining in the State and on the distribution and development of minerals therein. It contains material that could not be duplicated at the present time, and it will always remain as an ultimate source of information on the development of New Mexico's mining industries. The United States Geological Survey in 1905 undertook a reconnaissance of the ore deposits of New Mexico. The work was carried on and reports were prepared by Waldemar Lindgren, Louis C. Graton, and Charles H. Gordon, the whole being combined in Professional Paper 68, entitled "The Ore Deposits of New Mexico, " published in 1910. This classic work will remain as a reference on metallic mineral deposits of all the mining districts in the State. The United States Geological Survey and the Bureau of Mines have also published numerous Bulletins and Geologic Folios in which the mineral deposits of certain localities are discussed. In 1915, under the direction of the State School of Mines, Fayette A. Jones prepared a report, or bulletin, entitled "The Mineral Resources of New Mexico." This bulletin is a thorough summary of the important mineral deposits of the State and is useful as a convenient general reference.
