The development of cliromlte de IpoHits and the production of this j mineral h'in been one of the notable features of mining activity within (the state during the past year. East- jern and southwestern Oregon have developed new ehromito areas that 'have contributed one-third of the to- 1 1 1 output of the United States. During the year 21,000 tons was mined and sold. Of this production 15,000 tons was produced in Grant and linker counties in eastern Ore con and about 6,000 tons In Jose phine, Jackson, Coos, Curry, and Douglas counties In' southewestern Oregon. The total value of" chromlte haB been estimated at S70.000. According to a preliminary esti mate of Oregon's inetul production by Chan. O. Gule of !h( United States Geological Survey a decrease only 111 gold Is shown for the year. The estlmnted output is $1,270,1100 for the ywtir which is a e'ecreaso of $221, 500 as compared to .'J17 production. In spite of high cost of labor and supplies deep gold mines maintained their usual output but at groitly re duced profit.
