Introduction
Mineral Resources of Virginia
, authorized by the Governor of Virginia and the Virginia
Jamestown Exposition Commission, has
been published in order to direct attention to
the economic value, location, and commercial possibilities of
Virginia
's varied
mineral wealth.
The evidence here presented shows that the State is well supplied with a great variety
of mineral resources, many of which are
being rapidly developed. There is probably
no state in the Union of the same area as
Virginia
that can show a greater diversity
in geologic resources. This most important fact taken in connection with the
mildness of the climate, which permits of a long
season of outdoor work, and the
cheapness of labor, are conducive to a very extensive mining industry. The total value of
production of the mineral resources of
Virginia
for the year 1906 has been estimated at ,000,000.
At the July (1906) meeting of the Virginia Jamestown Exposition Commission, it was
agreed that a handbook illustrative of the
vast mineral resources of
Virginia
was
a necessity. The writer was accordingly authorized to prepare a
handbook setting forth,
as completely as our present knowledge permitted, the
vast and varied mineral resources of the State. He was further authorized
to devote several months in the field to a study of the mineral resources in those
portions of the State where information was
most needed for the purpose of collecting
the necessary data for this volume. The work has proved far more exacting than was
at first contemplated, in that the widely scattered literature on the geology of
Virginia
had to be overhauled in the preparation of
the volume.
