Geology of the Region Around Lead, South Dakota, and its Bearing on the Homestake Ore Body

By Sidney Page

Spiral-Bound, Department of the Interior, Hubert Work, Secretary, US Geological Survey, George Otis Smith, Director, Washington Government Printing Office 1924 reprint

The results of the first systematic geologic investigation of the Homestake mine were published in 1904, however this investigation did not include the deeper workings of the Homestake mine.  In 1912, permission was granted for Sidney Paige to discover evidence in support of new hypothesis regarding the origin of the ore.  It is much desired that at some future date a more detailed investigation of this mine, perhaps the greatest gold mine in the world, be obtained and published.

Geology of the Region Around Lead, South Dakota, and its Bearing on the Homestake Ore Body is available in limited quantities.
