Excerpt from A Preliminary Report on the Ocher Deposits of Georgia Field study was not exclusively limited during either season to examinations of the yellow ocher deposits alone, but was devoted to systematic work on both the manganese and the ocher deposits of the State, at the same time. Since the area, which includes the yellow ocher deposits forming the subject of this report, is also the principal manganese-producing district in the State, and in the Southern Appalachians; and since the ore deposits of the two metals are more or less closely associated in occurrence, field study of the two subjects could readily be prosecuted together.

Excerpt from A Preliminary Report on the Coal Deposits of Georgia, 1904 The Carboniferous rocks of Georgia have been divided by Dr. C. W. Hayes, of the United States Geological Survey, into the following five divisions, named in the ascending order: Fort Payne Chert, Floyd Shale, Bangor Limestone, Lookout Sandstone and Walden's Ridge Sandstone.2 The three first divisions, here given, belong to the sub-carboniferous series; while the two remaining divisions constitute the Carboniferous formation proper, or the Coal Measures.
