Oklahoma Leads in Zinc Production Progress Tri-State Field
The Tri-State zinc district spanning Oklahoma, Kansas, and Missouri is hailed as possibly the world's largest zinc field with potential output capable of meeting national demand. Production has shifted toward the Piecher field near Miami Oklahoma and Baxter Springs Kansas, while Joplin district mines decline. Prices and costs have driven consolidation, with some mines closing as ore values drop. A note on a separate Missouri feature mentions a rattlesnake ranch near Ademon, Indian Rock, Ozarks, run by Miss Ahearn and her brother, profiting from rattlesnake products and caged snakes sold to zoos and healers.
