Once Farmland Pasture Now Rich Asbestos Mine Asbestos, Que, June 16--(CP)-- Jet planes were far in the future when asbestos outcroppings forced Charles Webb to turn his Eastern Townships farmland into pasture, but 70 years later new uses for the mineral are driving the world's larg- est quarrying operation of its kind underground. Asbestos blankets to insulate a pilot from the terrific heat of his jet engines are only one of the new products made of the mineral torn from open pits at the rate of 305,- 000 tons yearly. Now the operators (Canadian Jolns-Manville) who provide a livelihood for Asbestos' 5,500 people have dug a hole 1,000 feet underground in search for more of the fibrous mineral. Ever since the prosperous Eng- lish farmer, W. H. Jeffrey, took over Webb's apparently useless farm in 1881 to quarry asbestos. It has been taken out of a big open pit now nearly a mile across and 300 feet deep. Two years ago the operators fin- ished sinking a 1000-foot shaft to get at ore bodies far below the sur- face. This operation still is in the development state but already As- bestos men, used to working in the open, are beginning to push drifis towards the ore. Underground work requires con=- siderable training and the mining crew was built up from a nucleus of experienced men from gold and copper mines of the north. They are filling the jobs requir- ing the most know-how, such as drillers, Joader operators, timbérmen, blasters and cage tenders. Local men without underground experi- ence serve as muckers and general laborers and graduate to more res- pcucible jobs as training develops. Ashestes is u.ined from Siberia to South Africa but the mines here and at nearby Black Lake, Coler- aine, East Broughton and Thetford Mines produce 70 per cent of the world's supply, Geologists estimate there is encugh here to last for an- other 150 years.
