but this operation has been discon-
tinued. Other deposits in a general
line from Wilsall TO Big Timber are
known TO exist, however, and fur
Their production might be justified,
If not for optical purposes then for
other uses.
CEMENT: Calcareous shales, clay
and limestone, the ingredients from
which Portland cement is made,
exist in vast quantities In many
counties of the state. At present,
however. only one cement plant,
that at Trident, is operating, the
other at Hanover having been dis
continued The ingredients for ce-
ment making are of such universal
occurrence that the limitation of its
production In any given area is one
of market demand in terms of
freight-rate radius. Some considera-
ton has been given to the POSSIBLE
ity of making hydraulic cement
using Stag from copper smelling.
CERIUM: (See Rare Earth Min
erals).
CHROMIUM: Extensive deposits
of chromite are found In Saltwater,
Sweet Grass and Carbon counties.
Smaller deposits are known in
Madison county. During the war the
three major deposits mentioned
were extensively developed by the
Defense Plant corporation Three
mills were built, the entire project

along Highway No. 10 about Is
miles west of Butte and on Dry Cot
tOnwood creek nine miles east of
Warm Springs. This material is
abundant In the mountain states
but II commands rather low price
and the northwestern market at
present Is pretty well supplied by
plant at Belle Fourche, South Da-
kota, and by plants in Wyoming.
BERYLLTUM: A rare metal used
mainly in copper alloys. A rather
diligent search of some of the pos
sible sources in Montana has SO far
been negative.
BISMUTH: A minor metal recov.
cred in minute amounts as by
product from copper and lead
smelling Bismuth occurs as a
mineralogic curiosity at Elkhorn in
Jefferson county, near White Sui
phur Springs, and elsewhere but no
commercial deposits of bismuth are
known, although the Argenta NJ &
M. company shipped 1000 pounds
of bismuth concentrates In 1910.
BUILDING STONE: The out
standing deposit of building stone
in Montana at the present time is
found near Gardiner where beau
tiful variety of travertine has been
quarried for the last ten or fifteen
years. This Is decorative stone far
superior in appearance to Italian
travertine. Montana travertine has
been used in a number of public
buildings from New York to Los
Angeles for the interiors of public
buildings and to some extent in
Montana. Increase in its use is
largely a matter of craftsmanship
BLACK and gold" marble was for
several years produced by the Yer
mont Marble company from a de-
post near Radersburg, but this
operation was discontinued in 1897.
Granite, gneiss, limestone and sand
stone of good quality are available
but at the present time most stone
of this type is imported from east
ern states where extensive quarries
and cutting plants are in position

building stone were more extensive
ly employed in the state. stone quar-
ries would undoubtedly be devel-
oped.
CADMIUM: A minor metal recov-
cred in small amounts as by-prod
uct from the electrolytic zinc plant
at Great Falls. Cadmium occurs al
most entirely as an "impurity" in
zinc ores and no cadmium deposits
as such are known in Montana.
CALCITE: Optical calcite was
produced during the war from de
posts near Clyde Park and played
an important role in gun sighting,

representing an expenditure of is
to 20 million dollars. A total of 1O2,-
900 dry tons of chromite concen-
trate was produced. Before the end
of the war these operations were
put on standby basis. and for
eign chromite was substituted for
the domestic product. Under pres
ent political and economic condi-
tons, these deposits, unfortunately,
are likely to remain idle In spite OF
the fact that they constitute one of
the states major metalliferous re-
sources.

that the winning of 1t will require

The survey, arranged alpha

value, follows:
AGATE; Moss agate, rated as a
semi-precious stone, If found as peb-
bles along the Yellowstone river,
and minor industry in the sorting,
cutting and polishing of these
stones exists in this area
ALUMINIUM: Metallic aluminium
is not produced in Montana. Vast
volumes of aluminum-bearing sill
cate minerals occur in Montana as
in all parts of the earth's crust in
Shales, igneous rocks and clays
tow, but as a source of aluminium
metal such material cannot at pres
ent, compete with bauxite, which so
far as known does not occur any
where north of latitude 37o. In view
of the vast aluminum-producin ca.
pacity developed during the war 1t
is improbable that any additional
plants will be built for many years.
Some of the high alumina clayS in
Montana, however, may ultimately
become a source of metallic alum
mum.
ANTHONY: A few carloads of
anthony ore were produced during
the war from a property near
Thompson Falls. An anthony pros
pect property near Dillon has also
been reported, and low grade anti
mony deposit occurs 10 miles south
east of Silver Star in Madison coun
~. Anthony in small amounts is
recovered as by-product from
Butte copper ores and probably
from some of the lead ores treated
at East Helena.
ARSENIC: Arsenious oxide, and
at times a small amount of metallic
arsenic, is recovered at Anaconda as
a by-product from the smelling of
copper ores and also from time to
time In the treatment of gold ore at
the Jardine mine near Gardiner.
ASBESTOS: A rather substantial
eposit of brittle" amphibole
asbestos occurs near Karst Kamp
on the West Gallatin from which
there has been small production.
Another deposit has been worked
near Cliff Lake. Deposits have also
been reported in the Rainey Creek
district north of Libby and up Big
Horn river canyon in Big Horn
county. No deposits of the long
fibered serpentine asbestos pre-
ferred by the trade have been re-
ported.
BARIUM: Minor occurrences of
barite have been reported and some
barite is said to have been shipped
from near Libby but no deposits of
outstanding commercial signifi-
canoe are known.
BENTONITE: Bentonite is a pc
culiar variety of clay distinguished
by its absorptive and colloidal prop
critics. Extensive deposits of benton
lite are found near Glasgow, Great
Falls, Geyser, Forsyth, Hardin, and
in southern Carter county, also

Veterans Urged To Apply For N.S.L. Insurance

Veterans who failed to apply for National Service Life Insurance while in the armed forces may still do so under amendments en- acted by Congress earlier this year, according to Barnard Esta- brook, contact and insurance off cer of the Veterans Administration for Alaska.
 This feature is but one of many in the amended insurance act, Es- tabrook said, which are being brought to the attention of veter- ans throughout the Territory in the campaign to get veterans to re-instate their insurance. Veterans who subscribed for less than the S10,000 maximum policy in the service and who were formerly barred from in- creasing this to the maximum may now do this also, he said. A physi- cal examination by a doctor at the veterans expense, however, is necessary in either of the above features.
 Veterans however who carried NSLI in the service may rein state up until February l, l947, without a physical examination by payment of two monthly premi- ums and by signing a comparative health statement.
 Veterans service organizations throughout Alaska have joined the
 VA in it's campaign to get the
 veterans in the Territory to re-
 instate lapsed policies at the ex- tremely low level term rate. The monthly premium for veteran al 25 years of age is but 67 cents per thousands dollars per month, Esta- brook said, with rates at other , ages on a comparative basis. Veterans who have let their NSLI policies lapse are urged to 1 get in touch with VA contact rep 1 reSentatiVeS now stationed at Ketchikan, Juneau, Fairbanks and Anchorage or to write direct to
