Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Daniel Cowan Jackling (August 14, 1869 - March 13, 1956), was an American mining and metallurgical engineer who pioneered the exploitation of low-grade porphyry copper ores at the Bingham Canyon Mine, Utah. Daniel Jackling was educated in mining and metallurgy disciplines at the Missouri School of Mines in Rolla, Missouri, now known as Missouri University of Science and Technology. In 1898, Jackling and Robert C. Gemmell made a detailed examination of the Bingham Canyon copper property. They recommended open pit mining, using steam shovels to load railroad cars, a novel idea at the time. In 1903, Jackling organized the Utah Copper Company to put his plan into action. The mine proved to be profitable, and open-pit mining of low-grade copper deposits came to dominate the industry by mid-century.
