OIL TERRITORY
OPINION EXPRESSED BY DEAN
THOMSON ON GEOLOG-
ICAL FORMATION IN DIST.

Francis A. Thomson, dean of the
school of mines at the University OF
Idaho, and director of the state bu-
reau of mines and Geology, is skep-
tical regarding the loud claims made
in other parts Of the Inland Empire
regarding the prospects for oil
While, as all know, thousands of
persons have made fortunes in some
parts Of the United States out of the
oil fields, biologists have been able
to easily detect the difference in form
ations in districts where there is
oil, and where oil does not exist.
The following communication from
Dean Thomson is written with the
view to correctly inform the people Of
Moscow district, so that they may not
become over-enthusiastic and spend
perfectly good money on something
that, apparently, does not offer any
possibility Of returns.
Dean Thompson's communication
follows
| understand that a good deal of
attention is being given locally to the
possibility of oil being discovered in
the vicinity of Spokane and of Lewis
ton. / pointed out in the columns of
the Star-Mirror a year ago, the ex-
treme improbability Of oil occurring
in the vicinity of Moscow, and this
opinion was based upon the fact that
oil has so far been found only In or
to marine strata or deposits
laid down in the bed of the ocean,
whereas our rocks are neither the
basalt of the Columbia Plateau, the
granite and gneisses Of Central Idaho,
1r the highly altered pre-cambrian
sediments of the Coeur d'Alene or
BELT series laid down long before the
oil forming organism existed.
Exactly the same reasoning applies
10 the SpOkne area and | sincerely
nope that none of our neighbors liv-
ing within the shadow of the state
will so far ignore the ex-
3erience of geologists and petroleum
engineers throughout the world as to
)ut their money into such PROPOSE
tions as this, where the chances are at
least million to one against oil dis
,overy. The entire School of Mines
aculty and the staff of the State Bu
eau of Mines and Geology are unan-
imously of this same opinion
No one is keener or more anxious
or the development of the states
mineral resources than I am, but it
s evident that the less money we
spend on this kind Of "pipe-dream" the
more we will have available for legi-
innate promotion ventures having at
east a reasonable chance of success

Dean, School of Mines, and Director
