DIRECTORY OF WASHINGTON MINING OPERATIONS 195.3

By C. Phillips Purdy, Jr.

Olympia, Washington January 1, 1953

FOREWORD

The current Directory, like those published in the preceding years, is designed to provide information on all companies, agencies, or individuals who are producing minerals or mineral aggregates in 'Washington. The names of the concerns and of the mines or other properties are listed, together with addresses, locations, and the minerals -oroduced. In most instances the concerns listed are currently operating; some, hOYever, are inactive but produced as recently as 1951 and reasonably may be expected to resume operation; and a few are in a development stage but expect to produce in the near future. The data used are from the files of the Division of Mines and Geology and have been obtained principally through personal contacts with the operators at their mines, quarries, or places of business.

Sand, gravel, and common crushed-rock operations are fairly complete and include all the more prominent producers--particularly those operating commercial pits and quarries, as distinct from state and railroad quarries. As the emphasis is on operations of some permanence, the many pits of the Washington Department of Highways are not listed individually because of the temporary or intermittent nature of their production. The crushed rock referred to is mostly used for road-building pirposes, but some is used for riprap and breakwaters. As such it is distinguished from dimension and architectural stone, which are produced by concerns listed under the general heading of nonmetallic operations.

Every effort has been made to insure the completeness and accuracy of the data included in this Directory. However, as changes in status due to reorganization, removals, and altered mining conditions are continually taking place, it will be appreciated if additions and corrections are brought to the attention or the Division. ·

DIRECTORY OF WASHINGTON MINING OPERATIONS, 1953

By c. Phillips Purdy, Jr.

INTRODUCTION

ARRANGEMENT AND USE OF THE DIRECTORY

The active mining operations of the state are arranged in three categories: those producing or eu.rrently preparing to produce METALLIC minerals; those producing NONMETALLIC minerals exclusive of sand, gravel, riprap and crushed rock; and those producing SAND AND GRAVEL, riprap and ernshed rock. In the back portion of the directory appear entries listed alphabetically by organization under each or the three categories. Each entry, in addition to the organization name, includes the names of' officers or other individuals familiar with the operation, a mailing address, the current status of activity, the product or products in order of importance, and the location of the producing property by legal land description.

Preceding the alphabetical listings appear three sets of indexes. T~e first, the PROPERTY INDEX, requires that only the appropriate mine, prospect, claim, pit, or quarry name be known in order that one may ascertain full information about the active property from the alphabetical section. The second, the PRODUCT INDEX, requires that only the product or products from a property in any of the categories be knonw in order to obtain full information. The third index, the COUNTY INDEX, lists all the active operations of' each category that are located in each county. This index also includes the product or products of each operation. Tlm.s by knowing only the location or a property, one may obtain full information.

The abbreviations used throughout the directory include:

Ag - silver Au - gold Cu - copper

Fe - iron Hg - mercury Ml - manganese

Mo - molybdenum Ni - nickel Pb - lead

Sb - antimony W - tungsten Zn - zinc

Underscoring indicates the metal of principal economic importance.

Locations by legal land descriptions are abbreviated; for example, NEt sec. 15, (29-.37E), which written in full would be northeast quarter of section 15, township 29 north, range 37 east Willamette meridian.

Metallic minerals accounted for a total value of $12,652,000,or approximately 25.8 percent of the state's total production in 1950; industrial minerals accounted for the remaining $36,403,000, or 74.2 percent. In 1950 Washington was 29th in rank with 0.41 percent of the total United States mineral output, Idaho was 27th in rank with o.67 percent, and Oregon was 38th in rank with o.18 percent.
