However, none of those occurren...ces, if known, was in connection with workable deposits, either then or at any subsequent time, with the sole exception of those in Sussex County, N. J. , where the mineral was not blende, but franklinite, willemite, and zinkite. The first mention of zinc ore in the West appears to have been made by Bradbury in 1810, who recognized its occurrence at Mine a Burton. 1 Schoolcraft also observed it in Washington County, Mo. , and with his characteristic acumen pre- dicted the future value of the ore, which was a remarkable forecast in view of the infancy of the zinc industry in Europe at that time (1819) and its non-existence in the United States.
