in time become the basis for small

presence of considerable titanium

grade samples and because Of the
relatively low iron content AS a
source of iron, 1t cannot under
present metallurgical practice, com

and titanium content may be of
value. Other small iron deposits
have been investigated at Sheep
Greek in Meagher county and near
Georgetown in Granite county and
elsewhere. In view of the battle
now being waged to keep the
Geneva and Fontana plants in op-
Grafton, and in the light of the
statements made above, the de-

steel industry in Montana does not
appear to be realizable objective

sum is used to small extent in the

much larger extent in the manufac-

is being worked at the present time
as source of plaster and wall

Gypsum without water of crystal
lizatiOn) have been found in drill
holes in Kevin-SunburSt and other
oil fields. Although not of CONNER
cial significance at present, this
suggests possibility of potash and
other salines in similar association.
ICELAND SPAR: (See Calcite)
INDIUM: A rare and precious
metal which sells at present for
S2.25 an ounce. Small amounts have
been produced as a by-product in
the treatment of zinc ores at Great
Falls No indium minerals as such
are known to occur, and the metal
is present in microscopic quantities
appearing only in the final refining
operation.
IRIDIUM: (See Platinum).
IRON: During the war there has
been so much talk about an iron
and steel industry in Montana that
brief analysis seems desirable.
For blast-furnace plant the
three essentials, in addition to favor
able freight rate and market, are:
abundant supplies of iron ore, cox
ing coal and limestone. Montana
PROFESSIONALLY has the limestone.
Unfortunately, however, no sub
stantial deposits of coking coal are
known to exist in the state. AS to
iron ore, two deposits have been
much mentioned: the first is the
Running Wolf or Stanford deposit,
known and Investigated over a long
period of years. During the war
campaign of diamond drilling and
magnetometer surveying was car
ried on by the U. S. Bureau of
Mines. The most optimistic authori-
tative tonnage estimate was that of
Z million tons made by the u. S.
Geological Survey many years ago
Later work has tended to reduce
rather than to increase this esti-
mate. when it is recognized that
the Hull-Rust pit on the Mesabi
range has an output of 10000 tons
a day, it is Immediately appareH

justify the production of feldspar
from this source at the present
time.
FLU0RSPAR: Deposits of fluor-
spar have been reported from Lewis
and Clark county, Silver Bow coun-
ty and in the Sweetgrass Hills. A
small experimental shipment of
fluorspar was made recently from
a prospect IL miles southwest of
Superior. None of these deposits
have as yet been demonstrated to
be of economic significance. Fluor-
spar is used mainly in the ceramic
and steel industries.
GARNET: Numerous deposits of
garnet-bearing rocks, principally
gneiss and schist, are known in
Montana and it is a frequent ac-
compartment of placer concen-
trates. Its use is mainly as a low
grade abrasive. So far as known
there are no commercial deposits,
although few garnetS are cut and
polished each year as semi-gems.
GLASS SAND: Sand of SO per
cent silica content is in demand and
a deposit near Days spur in Beav-
erhead county is of acceptable COM
position, but consumers object to
the small grain-size.
GLAUBER'S SALTS: (See Sod
ium).
GOLD: Montana's annual gold
production which in recent years
has ranged from 10000 to 264,000
ounces, declined geratly following
issuance of the gold closing order
but will probably pick up again
when labor and materials become
available. Lode gold is produced
both as by-product in smelling op-
erations and by amalgamation and
cyanidation. Placer gold is now re-
covered almost entirely by dredg-
ing. Numerous small lode-gold prop
critics formerly made a substantial
contribution to the total production
and the reopening of these proper
ties would of course be stimulated
should an increase in gold price
occur.
GRAPHITE: A graphite deposit
occurs approximately nine miles
southeast of Dillon. During the past
year this property has produced
several carloads of high grade
crystalline graphite some of which
may possibly have gone to one of
the atomic bomb plants. This prop
erty was recently closed.
GYPSUM: Deposits of gypsum
(hydrOus calcium sulphate) have
been known in the state for many
years. The two major deposits are
near Hanover and near Heath. Gyp

This inventory is being run
by the Montana OIL Journal In
series form. Last weeks section
began with agate, ended with
chromium. This weeks portion
of the inventory begins with an
ungiam0rous productivity:
CLAY: Deposits suitable for the
making of common red brick are
found in nearly all parts of the state
and are utilized locally. The Mis-
soula and Kalispell valleys have ex-
tensive deposits of better quality
clay which might be utilized for the
manufacture of terra Gotta and
other ceramic wares. Quality brick
is made by the Western Clay Manu-
featuring company at Helena and
by the Lewistown Brick & Tile COM
pany. Pottery clay of high quality is
also found near Lewistown which
the finest grades of ceramic ware
the finest grades of meramic ware.
AS in many other cases, the prob
lem is one of freight rates and mar
ket. II is doubtful whether there are
enough women and girls at the
kitchen sinks of Montana breaking
cups, saucers and plates to justify
the establishment of chinaware
industry.
COAL: Montana has worlds of
coal Bituminous coal is produced
on a rather substantial scale near
Red Lodge and from the Roundup
fields, also in the Stockett-Sand
Coulee and Belt fields in Cascade
county. Black Ignite, or sub-bitum-
nous coal, is produced by the
Northwestern Improvement COM
pany from open pit operations near
Colstrip where a daily output of
$500 to $1,000 tons per day is made
with total force of 1875 employees.
Over 400 billion tons of known
mineable sub-bituminous or Ignite
coal exists in eastern Montana.
Aside from the Colstrip operation
only few local wagon mines" are
operating but ultimately these de
posits viii be utilized, probably in
the manufacture of synthetic motor
fuel, or in the making of substi-
tute for natural gas. This obviously
constitutes the greatest known po-
tential mineral resource of Montana.
COLUMBIUM: One of the rare
metals traces of which have been
found in some of the pegmatite
bikes in Madison county. No occur
rences of commercial significance
are known.
COPPER: Copper is, of course,
Montana's major metal. Production
ranges from 200 to 300 million
pounds annually. No substantial
copper production is made outside
of Butte although several copper
prospects elsewhere are under de
velopment
C0RUNDUM (EMERY): A small
deposit of corundum which Is used
as an abrasive was developed near
Gallatin Gateway by fe era
agencies and American Abrasive
company during the war. No pro
duction was made, however, and the
operation has been discontinued.
FELDSPAR: Feldspar is used ex
tenSively in the ceramic industry
Although vast tonnages of feldspal
exist in the granite rocks of tn
state and particularly in associates
pegmatite bikes, market condition
and freight rates do not appear Il
