Book Description
Excerpt from Geology and Mineral Resources of the Hennepin and La Salle Quadrangles The area included in the Hennepin and La Salle quadrangles represents one of the wealthiest agricultural, manufacturing, and mining communities within the middle west. Valuable farm lands, world famous manufacturing industries, and extensive coal mining operations combine to make the area one which can hardly be equalled in commercial importance in the State out side Of the large cities Of Chicago and East St. Louis. In no small degree have geological factors contributed to the importance Of the region, for the manufacturing, as well as the agricultural and mining wealth is drawn largely from the natural resources Of the region. That such a region possesses geo logic interest is to be expected, and this interest is greatly enhanced by the presence in the area Of unusual structural conditions, and by exposures Of rocks and buried glacial deposits that are more numerous and better uncovered than is commonly the case in the Prairie Province. Further interest attaches to the region because Of its nearness to Starved Rock State Park, the western end of which extends into the La Salle quad rangle. Deer Park a companion area Of nearly equal scenic interest and beauty lies along Vermilion River wholly within the La Salle quadrangle. The valleys Of the Illinois and the Vermilion and to a less degree the other valleys tributary to the Illinois possess scenic attractiveness of exceptional quality in contrast to the monotony of the landscape Of the surrounding plains.
