Book Description
Excerpt from Mining Law for the Prospector, Miner, and Engineer In adding another work on mining law to those already before the public, it is necessary to give a reason. The' present standard works on the subject are the production of mining attorneys, and while the value of their works is unquestioned, they are, perforce, more valuable and suitable for practising attorneys and in connection with mining l'itigations than for miners and as a guide in the field. This work has been prepared for the miner by a miner - using the word miner as a generic term to include all who may be interested in the subject of mineral rights and titles in contradistinction to mining attorneys though it is believed that the work will not be without elementary interest and value to the law profession. The purpose in view is to give a simple and easily grasped, though comprehensive idea of the mining law, showing its fabric and structure, that the reader and student may obtain the basic principles and facts upon which to take up either the more advanced study of mining law or use it intelligently and satisfactorily as a prospector, surveyor, claim owner, or property manager. It represents the experience and observation of the writer in the mining profession and as a mineral examiner of the Field Service of the General Land Office, in which capacity he has been in daily contact, in both office and field, with miners, mineral claimants, and the subject of mining rights and titles.
