Several years ago I sent the link on our web site, Stone Quarries and Beyond, to this article to the Norcal list. I've just created it in pdf form, and I thought I'd send it again for anyone who missed it. "<http://quarriesandbeyond.org/states/ca/pdf_files/a_tour_through_the_western_marble_regions_california_nevada_stone_magazine_dec_1895.pdf>A Tour Through The Western Marble Regions, Part III" (in Nevada & California), by George C.
