Excerpt from Gold Mining in North Carolina, Vol. 10: And Adjacent South Applachian Regions In the present publication that paper has been partly reproduced, but it has been largely rewritten, elaborated and brought down to the end of 1896. N o attempt has been made to describe all of the mines or even to present detailed descriptions of all of the more important mining regions to be found in North Carolina and adjacent States. Only such mining and metallurgical methods practiced in this and the other States are here described as it is believed will be found useful in a study of the best methods for use in the development of the North Carolina gold fields. This report may be regarded as being in a measure supplemental to Bulletin 3 (gold Deposits of North Carolina), published by the Survey in 1896, which described with more detail the gold-mining regions in this State.
