Geological Survey of Western Australia Bulletin No. 100, published in 1942. Part I, by geologist Keith R. Miles, describes the petrology of the crocidolite-bearing banded ironstones of the Hamersley Ranges and the mineralogy of the fiber, comparing them with South Africa's Cape blue asbestos. Part II, by Assistant State Mining Engineer J. S. Foxall, assesses the workings at Yampire, Dale's and Wittenoom gorges and L. G. Hancock's Marramamba leases, with production, treatment and transport. Appendices reprint 1937 (Forman) and 1938 (Foxall) reports.
