University of Arizona Bureau of MinesDescription
While some fluorspar has been produced in Arizona, it is little known to most of the prospectors and small operators of the state. The prices now offered for the mineral should make producers of some of the properties on which it is known to occur, especially those deposits in which it is found as a vein mineral, and from which it can be mined as a by-product of metalliferous minerals. That fluorspar is receiving some attention in this state is deduced from the increase in the number of requests for information concerning it that have been received recently by the Arizona Bureau of Mines. This bulletin has been prepared to answer these inquiries in greater detail than can be done by a letter, and it is hoped that it will answer the present need. 19 p.Additional Links
