Information requested from Montana mine operators and owners relating to mining activities is presented. Mining entrprises are listed systematically in categories in the main body of the Directory, either under Metal Mines or under Nonmetal Mines, Pits, and Quarries. In order, these categories are kind of ore or mineral produced; country in which the mine is situated; and the name of the mine. Additional information includes location of the property based on legal subdivisions of land survey; type of ore mined; mining district in which the property is situated; number of employees; mill capacity, if any; operator's name and address; owner's name and address; and yearly status, i.e., whether the property produced ore during the year, is still producing, developed ore without producing, or remained totally inactive. An index of mines, mine owners, and operators is included. The Directory also contains a list of presently inactive mines. Only those properties that have undergone development work or have produced ore within recent years but were inactive for a period of more than one year are included. Mines inactive for a period of three consecutive years are dropped entirely from the Directory. The rest of the Directory contains a list of Montana coal mines active in 1977 and a report entitled The Mineral Industry of Montana in 1977, by the Nonferrous Metals Division, Bureau of Mines, U.S. Department of the Interior, Washington, DC.
