Lower Mississippi Region Comprehensive Study. Appendix G. Related Mineral Resources.

摘要

The primary purpose of the estimates of mineral industry output and related water and land needs, as developed herin, is to make these basic data available to interested groups for subsequent use in regional resources evaluation and development planning within each of the broadly defined regional subdivisions of the Lower Mississippi Region. Estimates of mineral industry production listed herein, when integrated with parallel data related to other sectors of the economy, should provide the framework needed for more detailed analysis, objective planning, and optimum development of resources--in line with established conservation principles--in the several areas of the Lower Mississippi Region.
