 Mineral production was recorded in all 32 counties of the State. Value of
output ranged from about $4,000 in Curry County, where small amounts of stone
and sand and gravel were produced, to $337.9 million in Lea County, where
the production of mineral fuels predominated. Major mineral-producing counties,
in terms of value of production, were Eddy ($162.9 million), Grant ($64.7
million), Lea ($337.9 million), McKinley ($76.1 million), and San 
Juan ($119.6 million). The State continued to be the principal source of
perlite, potassium salts (potash), and uranium in the Nation.
