Headline Assaying Korea's Mineral Resources

Caption Description The Republic of Korea has considerable mineral resources. There are rich deposits of gold, graphite and tungsten, as well as of coal; and there is enough lead, copper, bismuth and manganese to merit attention. There seems t to be a reasonable prospect of developing mineral exports within a few years to the value of $40 million or $50 million a year. But the full extent of the country's mineral wealth has yet to be measured. The UN Korean Reconstruction Agency (UNKRA) has, therefore, built a mineral assay laboratory with the most modern equipment at Taejon, to test ore samples to assess the commercial value of the mines now in existence and make a proper evaluation of the new finds. UNKRA provided $160,000 for this project, which was set up in agreement with the Government and the UN Command.
Here one of the employees of the assay laboratory is inspecting the ore samples collected by the man on the left. [No exact date]
