Mining operations in Washington that were active in 1979 are arranged in three categories: those producing and those preparing to produce metallic minerals; those producing nonmetallic minerals, except for sand and gravel; and those producing sand and gravel. In the text of the directory the operations are listed alphabetically by organization name under each of three categories. Each entry, in addition to the organization name, includes the names of officers or owners, a mailing address, plant capacity or production if available, the current status of activity, the product or products, and the location of the producing property by county, nearest city or town or other geographic feature, and legal land description. Following the text (alphabetical listings) are three sets of indexes. The first set is PROPERTY INDEXES for metallic and nonmetallic properties. If the name of the mine, prospect, claim, pit, or quarry is known, these indexes provide direction to the full listing in the alphabetical or text section. The second set is PRODUCT INDEXES for metallic and nonmetallic products. If information on producers of a certain mineral product is desired, these indexes identify those producers in the alphabetical section. The third index, the COUNTY INDEX, lists all active mining operations that are located in each county. This index includes the product or products of each metallic or nonmetallic operation and the nearest town or city for each sand and gravel operation.
