SOME LIMITATIONS OF THE MINING FIELD IX NEW 



YORK STATE 



With its varied and important mining industry, the State still 

 affords room for new enterprise. The resources of nearly all the 

 useful minerals represented within its boundaries are so abundant as 

 to assure an indefinitely long life for productive operations. 

 Through advances in techncdogyj improved transportation facilities 

 and the natural growth of markets additional sources ^\ supply are 

 being brought constantly within the zone o\ economic development : 

 in these ways a widening field of industrial opportunit} is provided 

 for energy and capital.
