Geology of the Comstock lode and the Washoe district, with atlas
The field work for this report was begun in April, 1880, and concluded in March, 1881. In the spring of 1880 the Census of the Mineral Industries West of the Rocky Mountains was placed in my charge in addition to my duties as geologist, and occupied much of my time both during the period of field work in the Washoe District and since.
