Busch This directory of Illinois mineral producers lists individuals or companies producing cement, clay and clay products, fluorspar, lime, lead and zinc, natural bonded molding sand, silica sand, and tripoli. Two other directories of mineral producers have been published by the Illinois State Geological Survey, one for producers of limestone and dolomite and one listing producers of common sand and gravel. In 1966 Illinois mineral production totaled 644 million dollars — the highest annual value ever recorded for mineral production in this state. Based on 1966 production figures, the total value of the products produced by the mineral industries listed in this directory amounted to about 127.3 mil- lion dollars, or approximately 19.8 percent of the state's entire mineral value for the year. The total amount of stone reported produced in Illinois during 1966 was valued at 57.4 million dollars, or 8.9 percent of the state's entire min- eral product value. Common sand and gravel reported produced in 1966 totaled 29.4 million dollars, which was about 4.5 percent of the total state mineral value. The value of fuels produced in Illinois — coal, oil, and a small amount of gas — amounting to about 429.9 million dollars, was 66.8 percent of the state mineral value for 1966. The companies producing fuels in Illinois are not included in the present series of directories. A list of current drilling for crude oil by county, company, and location within the county, is available in the report on oil and gas drilling in Illinois issued monthly by the Illinois State Geo- logical Survey. Information regarding companies currently producing coal in Illinois may be obtained from the Illinois State Department of Mines and Min- erals, State Office Building, Springfield, Illinois 62706. This directory of Illinois mineral producers replaces the former directory of Illinois mineral producers, published as Mineral Economics Brief 8, June, 1964. - 1 - ILLINOIS MINERAL PRODUCERS Producer Mailing address Town near operation CEMENT Alpha Portland Cement Co, Marquette Cement Mfg.
