Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Annual Report of the Geological Survey of Arkansas, Vol. 1: For 1892
The results of the Survey's investigation of the iron deposits of the state. Have not met the expectations and hopes of their commercial value, with which the work was begun. The number of places at which iron deposits occur throughout the state is almost endless, but the examinations of these deposits and the chemical analyses of the ores show that most of them are either too limited in extent, or that they are too low in grade to admit of their being worked. The deposits of Law rence and Sharp counties are the only ones that merit atten tion, and whether those deposits can be worked now must de pend on economic conditions - transportation, markets and competition.
