Montana Quartz Gold Production And Probable Outlook
The article surveys Montana quartz gold production and potential first discoveries, noting Marysville as the leading district with the Drum Summon mine yielding about 568,898 ounces. It highlights other productive areas such as Kendall, North Moccasin, Ruby Gulch, Georgetown batholith near Anaconda, and Garnet, with total values exceeding $20 million in the Marysville section and millions more in surrounding camps. The piece discusses ore origins, geology, and the role of placer deposits in guiding hard rock discoveries, stressing the complex, speculative nature of quartz gold mining and the influence of sedimentary rocks like slates and schists on ore formation.
