| Geological Survey (U.S.). Lake Superior Division | Title: Geological Survey (U.S.). Lake Superior Division: Records, 1882-1912 Extent: 9.0 c.f. (5 record center cartons and 13 archives boxes) Call Number: U.S. Mss S Abstract: Correspondence of three geologists, Roland D. Irving, Charles R. Van Hise, and Charles Kenneth Leith, who successively conducted the work of this survey from their offices at the University of Wisconsin.

Monthly reports of University of Wisconsin Science Club meetings are present as are papers on Leith's work preparing an exhibit of ores for the St. Louis Exposition of 1903. |
