DIRECTORY OF WASHINGTON MINING OPERATIONS 1955

By Marshall T. Huntting

Olympia, Washington January 1, 1955

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 produced. In most instances the concerns listed are currently operating; some, however, 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 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 rock referred to is mostly used for road-building purposes, but some is used for riprap and breakwaters. As such it is distinguished from dimension, architectural, and landscape stone, which are produced by concerns listed under the general heading of nonme~allic 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 of the Division.

DIRECTORY OF WASHINGTON MINING OPERATIONS, 1955

By Marshall T. Huntting

INTRODUCTION

ARRANGEMENT AND USE OF THE DIRECTORY

1

The active mining operations of the state are arranged in three categories: those producing or currently 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 crushed rock. In the text of the directory the operations are listed alphabetically by organization under each of 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.

Following the alphabetical listings appear three sets of indexes. The 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 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 known in order to obtain fUll information. The third index, the COUNTY INDEX, lists all the active operations of each category that are located 1n each county. This index also includes the product or products of each operation. Thus by knowing only the location of a property, one may obtain fUll information.

The abbreviations used throughout the directory include:

Ag - silver Au - gold Cr - chromium

Cu - copper Fe - iron Hg - mercury

Mn - manganese Mo - molybdenum Pb - lead

Sb - antimony U - uranium W - tungsten Zn - zinc

Underscoring indicates the metal of principal economic importance.

Locations by legal land descriptions are abbreviated; for example, NEi sec. 15, {29-37E), which written in full would be northeast quarter of section 15, to1mship 29 north, range 37 east Willamette meridian.

Metallic minerals accounted for a total value of $15,105,960, or approximately 27.7 percent of the state's total production in 1953; industrial minerals accounted for the remaining $39,344,230, or 72.3 percent. Comparable figures for 1951 were $14,103,000, or 25.9 percent, and $40,449,000, or 74.1 percent. In 1951 Washington was 31st in rank with o.40 percent of the total United States mineral output, Idaho was 27th in rank with o.61 percent, and Oregon was 37th in rank with 0.21 percent.
