Three grades of material can be conveniently marketed, depending on the character of the rock furnished to the mill: a fair grade of grey, short fiber asbestos; a large quantity of grey material with a very small amount of fiber; and finally an equally large quantity of moderately good fiber which has been stained yellow by surface weathering. At present some of the output is being sold as cement for boiler coverings, pipe coverings, etc. For this purpose the asbestos is mixed with clay from Dry Branch, Ga., in certain proportions, the clay acting as the binder or cementing material. Mining.--A well located and conveniently constructed mill was built here some years ago. (See plate X, figure A.) The asbestos is located on a slope above the railroad, so that the rock from the mine can be hauled on a level to the top; floor of the mill and fed to the crusher without any elevation. After passing through the mill the finished product comes out on the lower floor which is on the level of the railroad. The mill has a capacity of 12 tons per day, but with a small expense this could be doubled by putting in an additional fiberizer or disintegrator. Enough power is generated to run the mill with the addition, and the preliminary crusher haa a capacity more than large enough to supply two fibcrizcrs.1 A spur track, which was built here some years ago, has been removed, so that the finished product has to be hauled to Hollywood, a distance of about one-half mile, until the business justifies its replacement.
