    Description

    SCARCE VINTAGE MAP AND REPORT!!
    This is USGS Mineral Resources map MR-43,
    Barite in the United States
    . Published in 1965, this item is complete with the manila sleeve, the huge map measuring more than five feet wide, and the 9-page article discussing the topic and providing additional details.
    The United States has large deposits of barite in some locations, but notable amounts and small scale mining have occurred in other areas as well. This map and article were published to summarize what is known. The article has lots of information, and the map shows the major locations like the Central US and Nevada, plus some unfamiliar ones like Massachusetts, North Carolina, Tennessee,
    California
    and other surprising states. It could provide some good leads for forgotten mineral collecting locales! A good resource for the mineral collector, or even the modern prospector.
    Expert packing assured. As a map, this item does not qualify for Media Mail, so First Class Mail will be provided.
