Excerpt from Report of J. Ross Browne: On the Mineral Resource of the States and Territories West of the Rocky Mountains Washington, D. C., March 5, 1868. Sir: In the preliminary report which I had the honor to transmit to you from San Francisco in November, 1866, a general summary was given of the mineral resources of the States and Territories west of the Rocky mountains. It was not anticipated by the department that the information required under letter of instructions dated August 2, 1866, could be obtained in full within the brief sufficient data might be collected to furnish a general idea of the rise and progress of the mining interest on the Pacific slope. No official documents in any department of the government contained accurate information on this subject, and it was considered desirable that special attention should be given to the following points: 1. The origin of gold and silver mining on the Pacific coast and present condition of that interest, as tending to show the progress of settlement and civilization. 2. Geological formation of the great mineral belts and general characteristics of the placer diggings and quartz lodes. 3. Different systems of mining, machinery used, processes of reducing the ores, percentage of waste, and net profits. 4. Population engaged in mining, exclusively and in part, capital and labor employed, value of improvements, number of mills and steam engines in operation, yield of the mines, average of dividends, and losses. 5. Proportion of agricultural and mineral lands in each district, quantity of woodland, facilities for obtaining fuel, number and extent of streams, and water privileges. 6. Slat beds, deposits of soda and borax, and all other valuable mineral deposits. 7. Altitude, character of climate, mode and cost of living, cost of all kinds of materials, cost of labor, &c. 8. Population of the mining towns, numbers of banks and banking institutions in them, facilities for assaying, melting, and refining bullion; charges upon the same for transportation and insurance. 9. Communication with the mines and principal towns, postal and telegraphic lines; stage routes; cost of travel; probable benefits likely to result from construction of the Pacific railroad and its proposed branches. 10. Necessity for assay offices and public depositories; what financial facilities may tend to develop the country and enhance its products. 11. Copies of local mining laws and customs regulating the holding and working of claims. 12. Number of lodges opened, number claimed, character of the soil in the mining districts, and its adaptation to the support of a large population.

Excerpt from Report of J. Ross Browne on the Mineral Resources of the States and Territories West of the Rocky Mountains The bullion product of Washington is estimated by the surveyor general at That of Oregon is rated as high as Intelligent resi dents of Idaho and Montana represent that the figures givbn in the above esti mate, so far as these Territories are concerned, are entirely too low, and might be doubled without exceeding the truth. The product of Idaho alone for this year is said to be from to That of Montana is esti mated by the surveyor general at Similar exceptions are taken to the estimates of Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona. As I have no grounds for accepting these statements beyond the assertion that most of the bullion is carried away in the pockets of the miners, I am inclined to rely upon the returns of the assessors, express companies, and official tables of export. Admitting that a fraction over seven per cent. May have escaped notice, although reason able allowance is made for this in the estimate of and that a con siderabl'e sum may be derived from sources not enumerated, I feel confident the additional allowance of is sufficient to cover the entire bullion pro duct of the United States for the year 1867, thus making the aggregate from all sources as stated in the report of the Secretary of the Treasury.
