Synopsis

Excerpt from Mining Practices: Compiled From the Engineering and Mining Journal by the Editorial Staff

Unlike most mining sections of the West, where pub lic land bearing valuable minerals is given prior right in the mining laws of the United States over agricultural claims, the Missouri mining districts have been parceled into tracts of 160 acres and the region was taken up by an agricultural people long before its value as mineral land was discovered. This was the case in the Joplin district of southwest Missouri and southeast Kansas.
