MOLYBDENUM 



The rare metal molybdenum has for its principal ore the sulphide 

 MoS 2 , which is known as molybdenite. This mineral is found in 

 several places in New York State. The recent extraordinary 

 demand that has developed for the metal in consequence of its 

 application in the manufacture of heavy ordnance, lends interest 

 to every occurrence of molybdenite that has not been inspected and 

 reported upon with reference to its economic possibilities. It is for 

 this reason the accompanying notes upon some New York molyb- 

 denite localities have been prepared. 



Whitlock 1 lists the following occurrences for molybdenite in his 

 " New York Mineral Localities " : 



Manhattan Island, between 43d and 44th street and First 

 and Third avenues, found in mica schist; West Point, Orange 

 county, in gneiss; Constitution island (Hudson river off West
