Mica-Bearing Pegmatites of New Hampshire: a Preliminary Report (open access)

Mica-Bearing Pegmatites of New Hampshire: a Preliminary Report

From abstract: Mica has been mined in New Hampshire since 1803. Production from 1908 through 1939 has aggregated 13,326,990 pounds of sheet and punch mica, an annual average of 416,470 pounds. Since 1931 production has been below this average, because of economic conditions rather than depletions. The mica-bearing pegmatites of the Grafton and Keene districts occur mostly in sillimanite-mica schist adjacent to large areas of biotite gneiss. The pegmatite bodies range from a fraction of an inch to more than 200 feet in thickness; most of them are crosscutting, and about 75 percent strike northeast. Mica occurs sporadically in most of them but where present in commercial quantities it is localized in one or more of the following zones: (1) In quartz-plagioclase-muscovite zones 2 to 10 feet from the walls of large pegmatite bodies, (2) in or near quartz masses that occur mostly near the centers of the bodies, (3) in thin dikes 5 to 15 feet thick or in similar offshoots from larger bodies, (4) within large pegmatite bodies, in more or less tabular streaks or zones composed principally of plagioclase, quartz, and muscovite.

[Letter from Claude Lloyd to T. N. Carswell - October 31, 1945]

A letter to T. N. Carswell from Claude Lloyd, Exeter, New Hampshire, dated October 31, 1945. Lloyd acknowledges his receipt of the letter from Carswell stating that he knew it was from him by the handwriting. He discourses on his view of the foundation of friendship, advises that George Paxton, "whom I had not seen since we took our degrees together down at Yale in 1925", and he had visited without reservation and gives his assurance that whatever had happened "during the Abilene debacle" had not changed Paxton. Lloyd mentions the names of other friends including Mildred Paxton, Professor Mullins, Tot, Gene Holman. He describes the West Texas view he longs for and summarizes his life in New Hampshire for the last twenty years discussing his work history, his wife, children and house and other members of his family living in various towns in Texas. He advises that he will write to Dr. Jellinek, as Carswell suggested, and although he has several friends still at Yale, he does not know Jellinek.
