This map shows all the known and identi�ed mines, mineral prospects, and igneous intrusions (dikes or sills) in the Western Kentucky Fluorspar District, compiled from thousands of maps and �les, creating an up-to-date, comprehensive catalog for the district. The district has been extensively mined for more than 120 years and was once the largest producer of �uorspar (�uorite) in the United States. Millions of tons of vein ore minerals (�uorite, zinc, lead, and barite) has been produced from these mines, and substantial reserves still remain. New mining and exploration activity has renewed interest in the district, and the industry will bene�t from the use of this new map. Historic iron ore mines are also included because of their immediate proximity to this mapped area.
ProcedureThe map was compiled from numerous sources, including the U.S. Geological Survey–Kentucky Geological Survey Geologic Mapping Program (1960–78), Strategic and Critical Minerals Program (1983), Conterminous United States Mineral Assessment Program (CUSMAP; 1987–92), KGS Digital Geologic Mapping Program (1996–2005), and numerous KGS mineral research investigations (1838–present). Some data were from KGS research, and others were collected and donated from mining geologists, �eld mappers, mining companies, federal and State geologists, and exploration con-sultants. Much of the data were in the form of surface and underground mine maps,property maps, �eld notes, drill logs, cross sections, summary reports, and reservestudies.
DatabaseThis map will also be an introduction to a new database of mines and mineral infor-mation, which will soon be available through the Kentucky Geological Survey Web site. This new GIS database provides immediate online access to detailed information about the mines on this map. Some of the larger mines have abundant data, but others have limited information or just a reference to a publication or report. This database also includes information about the igneous dikes in the district, which are important for the exploration of ore deposits and other geologic studies. New analytical data on the dikes and their associated rare earth elements will be added to the database in the near future. Some of the problems with this map and database are identical mine names for di�erent properties, various spellings of mine names on the same properties, and multiple mine names for the same property. This database will ultimately be the most up-to-date, geospatially accurate catalog for western Kentucky mineral deposits.
Geologic SettingThe Western Kentucky Fluorspar District is part of the larger Illinois-Kentucky Fluor-spar District, which is located south of the junction of the Rough Creek, Shawnee-town, and New Madrid Fault Systems. Mineralization occurs in Mississippian rocks in a complexly faulted terrane along many horsts and grabens.
Mineral Deposit Classi�cationThere are three classes of mineral deposits located on this map, some of which are considered Mississippi Valley–type (MVT) hydrothermal mineral deposits (vein deposits, bedded deposits, and igneous intrusives). Vein deposits are very narrow mineral deposits that extend vertically and horizontally for hundreds of feet and consist of �uorite, sphalerite, calcite, barite, and galena. Stratabound or bedded deposits, also classi�ed as MVT and containing �uorite, occur mainly in the Joy and Carrsville areas, and possibly bedded sphalerite in other areas. The third type is igne-ous intrusives, similar to Hicks Dome, a carbonatite complex located in Hardin County, Ill. More than 45 documented igneous intrusions, such as dikes, sills, and diatremes, are found in the district. These igneous rocks can be a host for rare earth elements, titanium, and �uorite mineralization.
Mining HistoryThe earliest mining in the district was for lead at the Columbia Mine, Crittenden County, in 1835 (Ulrich and Smith, 1905, p. 115). From 1835 to the early 1870's, little �uorspar was mined. Only small amounts were produced from the early 1870's to about 1890, when an expanded market was created by the development of the basic open-hearth steel furnace, in which �uorspar was used for �ux. Production since 1890 has been erratic, but in general has risen. During World Wars I and II and the Korean con�ict, production rose sharply, but because of rising imports from 1955 to 1958, production in the district decreased. It rose in 1970, but declined rapidly, and all production ceased in Kentucky by 1985. Sporadic milling of recycled government stockpiles continued into the 1990's. Exploration is intermittent in the district, and currently there is one operating mine, near the Klondike Mine complex.
Since mining began in 1873, the Western Kentucky Fluorspar District has produced about 3.5 million tons of �uorspar, 70,000 tons of zinc, 12,500 tons of lead, and 45,000 tons of barite concentrate (Anderson and others, 1982). Some trace elements, such as silver, copper, cadmium, and gallium, have also been recovered. Thirty percent of the �uorspar came from the Tabb Fault System, a major curvilinear fault in southern Crittenden and western Caldwell Counties (Trace and Amos, 1984).
Zinc has also been produced since 1940, some as a byproduct of mining �uorite. The Hutson Mine was a primary zinc producer in the district. Substantial quantities of barite have also been produced. Lead has been a minor byproduct in recent years, as have silver, cadmium, and germanium.
AcknowledgmentsSpecial acknowledgment for the development of this map and database is extended to William R. Frazer, Marion, Ky., who allowed KGS to scan his company’s mining data and make it publicly available for the bene�t of a new Kentucky minerals database. Other acknowledgment goes to Robert D. Trace, USGS and KGS geologist, who worked in the district between 1942 and 1985 and provided numerous rock samples, maps, notes, sections, and logs of mine data. His numer-ous maps, publications, and interpretations are important components of this new database, as are the igneous sample set he archived and donated to KGS. This sample collection will be the foundation of a new igneous dike database. Other early mine geologists, such as Harry J. Klepser, G.C. Hardin Jr., Stuart Weller, X.B. Starnes, Dewey H. Amos, and William R. Thurston, contributed vital information and documentation on the early mining activity in the district. Many of them wrote publications and contributed to earlier War Minerals and U.S. Bureau of Mines Reports. Appreciation is also extended to John Tibbs, Boyce Moodie III, and many other persons for their contributions to our understanding of the Western Kentucky Fluorspar District; they have contributed much to the Kentucky minerals database.
