asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if an Inspector of his Department visited and inspected the molybdenite deposits at Murvey, Roundstone, Connemara, and, if so, if he will state the nature of the Inspector's report thereon, and, also, if he has any information as to the possibilities of working these deposits.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Molybdenite Deposits at Roundstone.
Officers of my Department have visited and inspected the Molybdenite deposits at Murvey, County Galway, and the information secured is available for any person interested in the exploitation of the deposits. As regards the final part of the question, it appears to be the accepted opinion at the moment that in the present condition of the market for mineral products, the carrying out of mining operations for the material in question would be a speculative undertaking.
