Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the geological landscape of El Dorado County, California, with a specific focus on its chromite deposits. The author meticulously details the historical context of chromite mining in the region, tracing its evolution from early discoveries in the 1850s to the sign…ificant production boom during World War I and subsequent operations during World War II. The narrative unveils the geological intricacies of the area, elucidating the formation and distribution of ultramafic rocks, particularly dunite, which host these valuable chromite deposits. Readers are guided through the characteristics of chromium ores, exploring both disseminated and massive deposits, their composition, and the factors influencing their economic viability. The author provides a comprehensive analysis of individual mines and prospects, detailing their locations, geological settings, historical production, and remaining reserves. The Pillikin mine, renowned for its significant contribution to chromite production and its role as the sole operational chromite concentrating plant in the United States between the two World Wars, receives particular attention. Through meticulous research and insightful analysis, this book offers a valuable resource for geologists, mining enthusiasts, and historians alike. It sheds light on the geological processes that have shaped the region's mineral wealth, the historical significance of chromite mining in El Dorado County, and the enduring legacy of this industry on the local landscape. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
