GEORGIA MINERALS’ COLORFUL HISTORY TRACED TO INDIANS Atlanta (GPS) — Not tco Imany people know it perhaps but the history of Georgia’s mineral resources dates back many hundreds cf years to the red men, who inhabited this area before the coming of the first white man. At least that’s the story rel- ated in the current issue of the Georgia Department of Com- merce’s current Newsletter, just released by Secretary Nel- son M Shipp Much of the in- formation contained in the ar- ticie is credited to Capt. Gar- land Peyton, director of Georgia Department of Mines. Mining and Geology, who dis- 1 cufise d the subject in detail in the 1954 Spring issue of the Georgia Mineral Newsletter, published by the Georgia Geo- logical Survey. “The progress that has been \ made in the development and utilization of these ground pro¬ ducts from early times until now is representative of the ad¬ vancement cf civilization and the increased uses man has made of minerals ” the Com¬ merce Department said. “Use of minerals by the Indi¬ ans likely was limited to vein 'quartz for arrow heads and for spear points; river clays to crude, poorly-burned pot¬ tery and utensils; soapstone mortars for grinding corn, and stone for hammers, axes and plows. “The use of minerals by the Indians was confined, as far as known, largely, if not altogether tc stone. The use of metals like¬ ly awaited -the coming of the white man who brought with him to this section iron for wea¬ pons, utensils, tools and other farming implements. “As the white man advanced and made progress in agricul¬ ture and other trades, he turn¬ ed to local natural resources to replenish his needs along those lines.” After tracing the development of Georgia minerals for indus¬ purposes under the guid¬ ing hand of the white man from early Colonial times to the pre¬ the Commerce Depart¬ ment’s article concluded by say¬ ing: “The value cf Georgia mine¬ rals is increasing each year, and there has been a substantoal gain since production in 1951 (the last year for which figures are available) estimated by the Department to be $73, The drink everybody knows Fastest!
