These centers are found over parts of the northeastern, eastern 

 and southern portions of the Paleozoic area. Many of the de- 

 posits have been worked to some extent, but in most cases the 

 work has not progressed beyond the stage of test-openings. In 

 some cases, no openings of any nature have been made, but 

 strong surface-indications appear, which may or may not imply 

 workable deposits below the surface. Small shipments of the 

 ore have been made from a number of the openings, but as yet 

 these scattered accumulations of the ore have proved of little 

 or no commercial importance. Further developments in some 

 of the localities may, perhaps, lead to important concentrations 

 of workable ore. The mode of occurrence, association and the 

 mineral character and form of the ores are the same as de- 

 scribed in the Cartersville and Cave Spring districts. 



The following localities include the list of these scattered 

 ores: In the vicinity of Ligon P. O., in the extreme southwest 

 corner of Bartow county, about 12 miles west of Cartersville; 

 near Rome and Lindale, in Floyd county ; in Big Texas Val- 

 ley, 12 miles northwest of Rome, in Floyd county ; the Barns-

ley estate and vicinity, in the northwest part of Bartow county 

 and the adjacent part of Floyd county, 17 miles northwest of 

 Cartersville ; and the Tunnel Hill district, in Whitfield and Ca- 

 toosa counties. 



Attention is briefly called to the deposits in two of these 

 localities.
