Abstract:
In 1955, Tungsten Mining Corporation had a revenue of nearly $10 million, operating a tungsten mine in Vance County - the richest producer in the United States. Apart from tungsten mining, North Carolina's minerals are producing some excitement: North Carolina is a hot spot for copper and lithium, and North Carolina's mining industry is promoting a boom in other industries like ceramics and rubber.
