    Introduction
    Mineral Resources of Virginia
    , authorized by the Governor of Virginia and the Virginia
    Jamestown Exposition Commission, has
    been published in order to direct attention to
    the economic value, location, and commercial possibilities of
    Virginia
    's varied
    mineral wealth.
    The evidence here presented shows that the State is well supplied with a great variety
    of mineral resources, many of which are
    being rapidly developed. There is probably
    no state in the Union of the same area as
    Virginia
    that can show a greater diversity
    in geologic resources. This most important fact taken in connection with the
    mildness of the climate, which permits of a long
    season of outdoor work, and the
    cheapness of labor, are conducive to a very extensive mining industry. The total value of
    production of the mineral resources of
    Virginia
    for the year 1906 has been estimated at ,000,000.
    At the July (1906) meeting of the Virginia Jamestown Exposition Commission, it was
    agreed that a handbook illustrative of the
    vast mineral resources of
    Virginia
    was
    a necessity. The writer was accordingly authorized to prepare a
    handbook setting forth,
    as completely as our present knowledge permitted, the
    vast and varied mineral resources of the State. He was further authorized
    to devote several months in the field to a study of the mineral resources in those
    portions of the State where information was
    most needed for the purpose of collecting
    the necessary data for this volume. The work has proved far more exacting than was
    at first contemplated, in that the widely scattered literature on the geology of
    Virginia
    had to be overhauled in the preparation of
    the volume.
