24521Mostly relating to the San Francisco Bay Area of California but also to other parts of the state. Between 1912 and 1950. The two volumes contain a total of 239pp. 12mo in ink and pencil with entries dating from between 29 November 1912 and 28 March 1950. In fair overall condition with light signs of age and wear. In two Keuffel & Esser notebooks each in remains of brown calf binding the first with 'MINING TRANSIT BOOK 363' stamped on front cover and the second with 'Cross Section Book 375 S'. In manuscript on cover of first volume: '19<.> Dec. The Psilomelane D<eposits> of the Francis<can> <.> by Don <.> Under Prof. A. C. L<awson> <.>'. The two volumes mainly consist of rough notes statistics and diagrams - on samples deposits assay returns extracts surface workings stadia shots - relating to geological and mineralogical surveys mostly in California. The first volume dates from between 29 November 1912 Fort Baker and 23 January 1917 Latouche and contains doctoral work by the author while a geology student under Professor A. C. Lawson the identifier and namer of the San Andreas Fault at the University of California Berkeley. Named colleagues in some of these surveys are A. R. Whitman and E. F.

'Franciscan Geology of Northern California'. The second volume contains entries written between 5 September 1917 Hayden Hill and 28 March 1950 Yuba Gravel Range Nevada County. Towards the end of the second volume is a page dated 15 March 1950 and headed 'Work in Court House until 10 AM' perhaps suggesting that the author was by that time employed as a California state geologist a section of the same volume relating to the Decanso Mine seems to indicate that he was also working as a consultant. The first volume relates exclusively to California and mostly to the San Francisco Bay Area with entries on Fort Baker Marin County; the Robert Friggel Ranch in Livermore Alameda County; the Lucky Star Mine in Hayden Hill Lassen County; and Red Rock Island. Other places surveyed in the first volume are: 'Tesla-Carnegie' in San Joaquin County the Hess Mine in Imperial County and 'Latouche'. The second volume contains more information relating to the Lucky Star and Hess mines but mostly concerns: the Descanso Mine San Diego County; 'Laceiba' La Ceiba Honduras; Little Colorado; 'Cameron Mine' Deer Lodge Montana; Donner Mine 'North Star Consolidated quartz mine' in Placer County; Arctic Mine in Canyon Creek Nevada County; 'Sheba' Queen of Sheba Mine Inyo County; 'Gray Eagle Vein' Arizona; and Yuba Gravel Range Nevada County.

And one of those on Fort Baker dated 12 October 1913 has: 'with "<Corey Cosey>". K. Campbell.' Another page is headed: 'Conn Valley. October 18-19 1913. With Davis; E. F.'
