Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book details the findings of an 1865 geological survey of the state of Minnesota, conducted by Henry H. Eames. The author's primary focus was to investigate the mineral resources of the region, particularly gold, silver, copper, and coal. The survey also charted the various geological formations and assessed the potential for mining and quarrying in different areas. Before the survey, little was known about the mineral wealth of Minnesota. Eames's work established the presence of significant mineral deposits, notably gold and silver near Vermilion Lake, copper along the North Shore of Lake Superior, and iron ore at various locations. These findings sparked a mining rush and contributed to the economic development of the region. The survey also provided valuable information on the state's geology, including the identification of rock types, formations, and the presence of fossils. This book offers a valuable historical record of Minnesota's geological exploration and the discovery of its mineral resources, providing insights into the development of the state's mining industry and the broader understanding of its geological history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
