Riassunto

This book takes the reader on a journey through the history and geology of a fascinating region of Montana, exploring its rich mining districts. The author delves into the story of early gold discoveries, the boom of placer mining in the 1860s, and the subsequent development of deep mines and the innovative introduction of dredging techniques. The book provides a detailed overview of the geological formations of the region, tracing the sequence of rocks from the most recent alluvial deposits to the ancient Archean system. Each mining district is examined in turn, with a focus on its unique geology, history of production, and the different types of ores found. Through its meticulous examination of the diverse geological features of the region, the book offers valuable insights into the processes that shaped the landscape and the economic activity it supported.
