REF:Deposit:: U. S. BU. MI. 1943 WAR. MIN. REP. 14
Deposit:: Calver, J.L., 1957, Mining And Mineral Resources: Florida Geological Survey, Bulletin 39, 132 Pp.
Commodities (Major) - Titanium - Heavy Minerals
Development Status: Occurrence
Structure: Beach Sand
"Bureau of Mines locality No. 4, reported as situated 9.7 miles west of Camp Navarre." (Presumably similar occurrences are widespread along this coast.) Curiously, two samples studied here did not find garnet or monazite, which are common in other Florida beach sands (Roswell Miller III (1945) The heavy minerals of Florida beach and dune sands. American Mineralogist, 30, 65-75).
