Later, he worked in the company machine shop at their mill site in Uravan, Colorado. During the course of his employment with U.S.V.C., he acquired considerable insight on mining methods, uranium-vanadium ore refining processes, mill and mine equipment maintenance and new uranium mill construction. Numerous incidents in the early 1940s that occurred are lacking in previous publications. Most former Uravan employees have passed beyond the horizon and one objective in writing this narrative was to record s ome of the author's Uravan memories of working for U.S.V.C. at the beginning of World War II. A resurgence of activity occurred in the Four Corners regio n during the Uranium boom of the 1950s. With the discovery of several new uranium ore bodies, the demand for new uranium processing mills in Colorado, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico rose. Most of the Four Corners uranium mills no longer exist. Many have been dismantled, while others remain on a stand-by status awaiting direction from the United states Department of Energy to determine their future . Removal of radioactive tailings created by the mill operations began in 1977 and is expected to continue well into the twenty-first century. Excerpts from unclassified united States Depa.rtment of Energy's documents related to uranium mill site locations, ownership, history, dates of construction and closu.res, milling capacities and proposed tailings stabilization plans are also included in this document. i tC" ABOtrr TIlE AUTHOR In the early stages of World War II, United States mining companies experienced an acute shortage of lead, zinc, copper, and molybdenum miners and mill personnel trained in metal ref ioi09 processes. The United States Army I at the r equest of the Strategic Metals Production Board, initiated an intensive search through their records for soldiers experienced in mining and refining. Robert Sullenberger and 4,500 other soldiers were rounded up and shipped to Fort Douglas, Utah for assignment in the nation's metal mines. Mine representatives selected soldiers who possessed work experience needed by their companies. The Army then transferred them from active duty to the Enlisted Reserve Soldiers Miner corps. The Park City Utah Consolidated Hines company representatives chose sullenberger and two other f o rmer U.S.V.C. employees to work in their Judge Hine in Park City, Utah. After working several months as a mucker in the Park City lead mine, Sullenberger transferred to the Climax Molybdenum Company mine on Fremont Pass near Leadville, Colorado. Here he worked on the mine's underground maintenance crew. Many of the soldier miners became seriously injured in mine a ccidents, with some even losing their lives before the strategic war metal crisis ended. Moet men were recalled to active duty; however, some were discharged because of injuries suffe r ed in mine accidents . These unfortunate individuals received no disability pensions and none of the time they spent in the Soldiers Hiner corps counted towards their military service, nor did the Veterans Administration c alculate it for veteran's benefits after Wo rld War II. Sullenberger's recall to active duty became delayed since he suffered a serious l eg fracture incurred in the Climax Mine. ii • After his military discharge, sullenberger earned a degree in engineering at Utah State University. He worked for several years as a mechanical engineer in uranium and nuclear related industries before joining the faculty of Metropolitan State College in Denver, Colorado. During his tenure at Metropolitan State, the United states National Science Foundation selected sullenberger to serve as a Technical Education consultant for India's Polytechnic Colleges in New Delhi, India. In addition, he spent one year at the university of Petroleum and Minerals at Dhahran, Saudi Arabia as a visiting professor in their Mechanical Engineering Department. ACJQrfOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my gratitude to the Editorial Staff of the JOURNAL or THE WESTERN SLOPE for their interest in my manuscript and the time spent reviewing it. without their effort the document's publication would not have been possible. I also extend my appreciation to Mrs. Corinne Roring, a Monticello, Utah resident, for providing photographs and historical information on early mining activity in San Juan County, Utah. In addition, I owe thanks to the San Juan County Librarian, Vee Corrol, and the Mesa State College Reference Librarian, Mrs. Broadak, for their assistance in providing material used in this presentation. iii EDITORS NOT!: The editorial board of the JOURHAL OF THE WESTERN' SLOPB regrets the need to split this manuscript into two separate journals. To insure the integrity of the article, the quality of pictures, and to best serve our readers, this decision became necessary. The second segment of 100 YEARS OF URAHIUN ACTIVITY IN THE FOUR CORHZRS REGION discusses uranium mills in Grand Junction, Gunnison, Maybell, Blanding, on Indian reservations, and in the New Mexico area. please accept our apology for this unfortunate decision. The editor made several grammatical corrections in the quotes found in 100 YEARS OF URAlfIUN ACTIVITY IN THB FOUR COJUfBRS REGION to provide a clear, easy reading. We would like to take this opportunity to extend our appreciation to the subscribers of the JOURNAL OP THE WESTERN SLOPE for their continued support. The students and faculty here at Mesa State College depend upon your support and welcome any ideas you may have regarding our publication. Once again, thank you for your patronage.

Swent An Interview Conducted by Eleanor Swent in 1987 1988 Copyright fc} by The Regents of the University of California Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral history is a modern research technique involving an interviewee and an informed interviewer in spontaneous conversation. The taped record is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The resulting manuscript is typed in final form, indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and ot r research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between the University of California and Helen R.
