The collection contains geologic, engineering, development, and production information about the Crystal Mountain fluorite mine located in Ravalli County, Montana. Mr. Taber directed the mine's mineral potential evaluation, development, production, and closure. The collection is significant because it represents an intact information repository about the development and operation of one of only two producing fluorite mines in Montana.
