Carnotite Ore Prospects In Colorado Seen Exhaustive
The 160 mile long by five mile wide Carnotite ore belt in Colorado could be effectively withdrawn from public entry to prevent private development due to royalty fears. Prospector activity would vanish, forcing government to enter mining, costing large sums and many workers. The speaker predicted inexhaustible supply, though framed as a political stance. Mr Flannery will continue radium coverage before the mining committee at 10 this morning.
