Lead-Zinc Mining--Evaluation of Plantings

Photograph of the area around the Eagle-Pichers Mine, Picher, Oklahoma. Slimes Pond Evaluation of plantings in Commerce, Oklahoma. Grass seedlings were mulched with prairie hay that was hand spread following planting at the rate of 3 tons per acre and anchored with a tandem disc from March 15 - 17, 1967. This shows an adequate mulch cover, but demonstrates by the amount of loose hay on the surface that the tandem disc did not properly anchor this mulch. OK-2767-4.
