Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Annual Report of the Geology of the State of Vermont, 1845 Tm: importance of developing the sources of mineral wanl'ili has long been appreciated in civilized countries. The superior efficiency of systematic and intelligent effort, in operations which require a knowledge of the structure of the earth, of the situations in which minerals may be found, of their modes of occurrence, and of their chemical constitution and properties, naturally led to the establishment by governments in Europe, of those schools of mineralogy, which are almost coeval with the science itself. The benefits of such establishments not accruing to a few individuals only, but being diffused widely, it was the obvious duty of those governments, rather than the interest of individuals, to promote the knowledge of this science.
