About the Index --

Place names and towns, many of which never developed, geographical

areas, roads, railroads, mining districts, a few individuals chosen

subjectively I'm afraid, and a few miscellaneous items are listed.

Ores, except the most prevalent gold and silver, are listed to

show distribution. I did not go into Arizona except along the

Colorado River. Mines and groups in the Dale, Rand, and other

areas are not listed separately, nor the names of other individ-

ual mines, except when their locations were not clear, or if the

mines themselves are of interest. This is necessarily a subject-\

ive selection reflecting my own interests and knowledge -- or lack•

of it. In some cases I have made inferences from other sources

to aid in location, and these are subject to error. In the

limited time I could devote to the project, I am sure to have

made errors and omissions. This is far from a professional job,

but it will hopefully prove useful.
