C. IRON POINT OEE. 



Five analyses of the ore from this valuable seam are given below. 

 Most of the samples come from beyond the field considered in the present 

 report, but the horizon is well marked in the Hanging Rock District. 

 The analyses are not equally complete. 



1. Fannie Furnace, Shawnee — one hundred and five to one hundred and twenty feet 

 above Coal So. VI, calcined ore, 



2. Gould and Moore's landg, Carbon Hill — Ward township, Hocking county, one hun- 

 dred and thirty feet above Coal No. VI. From we*thered outcrop of seam.

C. PIG IRONS. 

 The results of four analyses of the iron made by Star Furnace, Jackson 

 county, will be found below. This furnace uses native oras solely and Jack- 

 son Shaft coal for fuel. There is no other furnace district of the State 

 in which all the materials that go into the stack are derived from the 

 immediate neighborhood. Some use Lake Superior or Missouri ores, 

 and some use Connellsville coke in connection with the native supply, 

 but no.foreign materials are here employed.
