<dd>"Between 1987 and 1992, Intermountain Research (IMR) conducted a program of survey, testing, and data recovery at Tosawihi Quarries, north-central Nevada.... The work was done on behalf of various mining development consultants and gold mining companies (Galactic Services, Inc.; Ivanhoe Gold Company; Touchstone Resources Company; Newmont Exploration, Ltd.), and generated several reports comprising the most intensive look at a toolstone quarry yet conducted in North America. Not widely available before now, the Tosawihi reports have been compiled in this collection and distributed by the Nevada Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in electronic format. These files contain the key reports of the Tosawihi project that comprise our theoretical stance, research designs, descriptions, data and interpretations. To support the IMR reports, we add some supplemental materials: Callaway (1991, this collection) on the constraints and opportunities that shaped the project; contemporary White Knife Shoshone ethnography (Clemmer 1990, this collection; Rusco and Raven 1992, this collection), and the present state of the quarries (Hockett 2006, this collection)"--Page 1</dd>
