The Mica Products Corporation’s mine on Cowee is now in operation. On test run made recently, the mine produced 17 pounds of mica per minute. It is the intention of the president of this corporation to increase this production to 1 ton per hour.
It is understood that shipments of mica from this mine will be made to all parts of the world.
Macon county is exceedingly fortunate to have an enterprise of this kind within her borders.
