...conditions that exist in nature, but with constant study more and more ways of scanning critical evidence of various sorts are being developed, so that today one "guess" about what is ahead of the pick is likely to be considerably more accurate than in the past, and there is reason to hope that there will be still further improvements in the future. This hope is to some measure reassuring, for otherwise with the rapidly increasing rate of depletion of our natural sources of supply and the increasing difficulty of finding new rich deposits as the area of unexplored regions gets...
