Excerpt from High-Purity Dolomite in Illinois Illinois contains extensive deposits of pure dolomite which is suitable for many/ war uses, such as refractories for open-hearth furnaces, flux for blast fur naces, and the manufacture of magnesium. Some of the deposits are being devel oped ou a large scale in the Chicago region and on a smaller scale at a number of other places. This study was undertaken to supply the present industry and possible new industries with information regarding additional sources of high purity dolomite in Illinois. In the Chicago region, comprising that area of northeastern Illinois mostly east of Joliet and north of Kankakee, this study has revealed the presence of many undeveloped deposits of high -purity dolomite In the Niagaran formations. Some of the purest deposits are ancient coral reefs. The data available from out crops and a few wells suggest that certain deposits in the Vicinity of Kankakee comprise several hundred acres of dolomite more than 100 feet thick and shallow enough to be quarried. Other deposits widely distributed throughout the Chicago region appear to be large enough for commercial exploitation. D'eposits occur near Kankakee, Sag Bridge, Chicago Heights, Stony Island, Romeo, Hinsdale; New Lenox, Manhattan, lagrange Park, Naperville, Frankfort, Lockport, and Lemont. High-purity dolomite is also present in other parts of the region but is generally deeply buried by glacial deposits or less pure dolomite. It could possibly be mined underground. The Savanna - Port Byron region, which includes that part of northwestern Illinois where high-purity dolomite occurs in the Niagaran formations, contains numerous undeveloped deposits of high-purity dolomite, and some are of large Size. Chemical analyses indicate that many of these deposits are of exceptional purity. Deposits which appear to have commercial possibilities occur near Savanna, Mt. Carroll, Lanark, Fulton, Albany, Morrison, Garden Plain Fenton, Cordova, Port Byron, and Hillsdale. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
