Industrial Minerals in the Basin and Range Region: Workshop Proceedings. Held in Salt Lake City, Utah on May 30-Jun 1, 1990.

摘要

The volume contains the proceedings of the Basin and Range industrial minerals workshop held in Salt Lake City, Utah, on May 30 through June 1, 1990. The workshop, the third in a series held in the Western United States beginning in 1988 in Arizona, followed in 1989 in California, completed an examination of the major factors that directly or indirectly affect the important, yet poorly recognized, industrial-mineral-resource industry. The workshop considered the current status of these mineral materials, the projected needs for them, some of the problems associated with mining them, and the development of a strategy or plan for assuring their future availability in the Basin and Range region of Utah, Nevada, and Idaho. Workshop sessions were sponsored by the geological surveys of the Basin and Range States (IGS, NBMG, UGS) and the USBM and USGS.
