Seite 19 - The slates are variable in color and composition. They are mineralogically clay, chloritic and talcose slates, taking silica into their composition at times, and even passing into fine grits and hornestones, but still variable in coarseness.
Seite 26 - ... of chemical alteration and mineralization; which in turn was succeeded by a long period of erosion and weathering. The rocks have suffered to a variable degree from all these factors. In general, each formation has a massive and a mashed or schistose phase, with every gradation between the two.
Seite 26 - Wide bands of a sedimentary, slate-like rock, composed of varying admixtures of volcanic ash and land waste, have the greatest areal extent. Intercalated with these occur strips and lenses of acid and basic volcanic rocks, represented by fine- and coarse-grained volcanic ejecta and old lava flows. The acid rocks include fine tuffs, coarse tuffs, and breccias, chiefly of a rhyolitic and dacitic character; together with flows of rhyolite and dacite. The basic series embraces fine tuffs, coarse tuffs,...

Seite 110 - There are two systems of veins traversing the hill; one consists of veins parallel to each other and to the strike of the schists, while in dip they frequently, perhaps it may be said generally, cut the schistosity at a slightly more westerly angle. The second system differs from the first in being entirely independent of each other and of the country rock, in strike and dip.
Seite 20 - Brecciated Conglomerate: This is the most remarkable mass of this division of the system. It has an argilaceous or chloritic base. The mass is composed in the main of fragments of other rocks mostly retaining an angular form, but frequently, rounded and worn rocks are inclosed in the mass.
Seite 111 - There are four shafts sunk in the property, as shown in the map (Fig. 4). In the No. 1 shaft a large body of ore was entered at the depth of 98 feet. At the depth of 105 feet a drift was run some 40 feet north and 90 feet south along and in this body of ore, exposing a thickness of 5 to 10 feet, all of which is stated to contain gold in paying quantities.
Seite 105 - successful process was introduced by Mr. Nininger, of Newark, NJ It consists of a down-draught jacket furnace, through which the fumes of lead and zinc are carried downward in condensers, where they are met by a spray of water, the liquor being led to vats where the lead oxide is deposited, while the zinc remains in solution and is subsequently precipitated as zinc oxide. The matte, carrying copper, gold, .and most of the silver, is tapped from the well of the furnace and cast into pigs.
