Book Description

Excerpt from Mining in California, Vol. 25: January-October, 1929; Chapter of Report XXV of the State Mineralogist Covering Mining in California and the Activities of the Division of Mines and Mining The weak point in work of this character has been that the results of field investigations were so long in preparation that they had lost much of their usefulness by the time they finally appeared in print. As a progressive step in advancing the interests of the mineral industry, publication of the Annual Report of the State Mineralogist in the form of monthly chapters was begun in January, 1922, and continued until March, 1923. Owing to a lack of funds for printing this was changed to quarterly publication, beginning in September, 1923. For the same reason, beginning with the January, 1924, issue, it has been necessary to charge a subscription price of $1 per calendar year, payable in advance; single copies, 25 cents apiece. 'mining in Cali fornia' will continue to be sent without charge to our exchange list, including schools and public libraries, as are also other publications of the Division of Mines and Mining. Pages are numbered consecutively throughout the year and an index to the complete reports is included annually in the closing number.
