Talc and soapstone in the United States, exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii

Abstract

The locations of talc and soapstone deposits in the United States (exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii) arc shown on the accompanying map. The two types are distinguished by the shape of symbols; the relative importance of the deposits, expressed in broad ranges of tonnage, is indicated by the size of symbols. Two persistent belts in the Southeastern States are shown by patterns, and the locations of the principal deposits within these belts are shown by appropriate symbols
