Molybdenum, the metallic element which is the object of AMAX Inc. exploration activities at Mt. Emmons in Gunnison County, Colo., was discovered in 1778 by Carl Wilhelm Scheele, a Swedish scientist who earlier had been the first man to isolate oxygen, fluorine and chlorine. Its name was derived from

The above schematic diagram of the Alkali gulch area shows a proposed general plan for the location of AMAX's Mount Emmons mine site and facilities. The ore will travel from the mine to the mill either by rail or conveyor belt. Nearly half of the distance will be through a tunnel under Mount Axtell.
