Re: Benson Mines



I've sent Robert Cunningham a more lengthy message regarding field record
materials
we have by Benjamin F. Leonard et al on "Ore deposits and regional geology
of the
St. Lawrence County magnetite district, and vicinity, northwest
Adirondacks, New
York" of work done in 1943-1958, and 1960.  The project includes materials
related to
the Benson Mines.
The project resulted in two USGS publications, both by Benjamin F. Leonard
and
A.F. Buddington:

USGS Professional Paper 376 (1962) and
USGS Professional Paper 377 (1964),

both of which have "Benson Mines......" entries in their indexes.

Does anyone have information about the Benson Mines that were located in a
remote area between Star Lake and Tupper Lake New York?  What little
information I have found indicates that Magnitite may have been mined there
and that the area was destroyed by fire about 20 or 30 years ago.  Any
information would be appreciated.  Robert Cunningham
