Geologist's journeys- North America
I have been a practicing economic geologist since 1961 and now am looking foreward to retiring on June 28, 2013. The map shows all of the major locations in North America that I have worked on from reconaissance locations, to drilling projects, to placing mines into production such as the Magmont Mine in the Viburnum Trend, the De Lamar Silver Mine and West End Gold mines in Idaho, and others. It has been a exciting, sometimes scary, and most of all a rewarding career.Underground stopes
