sonite, calamine ; at Des Moines, quartz crystals, selenite ; Makoqueta 
t., limonite ; near Durango, galenite. 
CEDAR RIVER, a branch of the Des Moines.—Selenite in crystals, in 
the bituminous shale of the coal measures ; also elsewhere on the Des 
Moines, gypsum abundant ; argillaceous iron ore, spathic iron ; cop- 
peras in crystals on the Des Moines, above the mouth of Saap and else- 
where, pyrite, blende. 
Fort DopeEe.— Celestite. 
MAKOQUETA.—Hematite. 
NEw GALENA.—Octahedral galenite, anglesite. 
MISSOURI. 
For the distribution of the lead mines see page 147. The number 
of minerals associated with the lead ore varies greatly in the different 
lead regions. Mine la Motte. and some old openings in Madison (o., 
are peculiar in affording cobalt and nickel ores abundantly. At Granby 
and other mines the chief zine ore is calamine,-or the silicate of zinc, 
while in the mines of Central and Southwest Missouri it is compara- 
tively rare, and smithsonite is the prominent ore—as is the case in 
Wisconsin ; yet calamine is the most abundant zinc ore in the State. 
As stated by A. Schmidt, the zine ore, in each case, is found as a sec- 
ondary product to sphalerite (blende) ; the cerussite often coats the 
galenite, or has its forms, indicating thus its source ; the limonite is 
also secondary, and has come in mainly through the oxidation of py- 
rite. At the Granby mines, the calamine is called, among the miners, 
“Black Jack ;” blende, ‘‘ Resin Jack ;”” a white massive smithsonite, 
** White Jack ;” and the cerussite is the ‘‘ Dry Bone;” thus departing 
from ordinary miners’ usage. Gold has been found in the drift sands 
of Northern Missouri (Broadhead).
