Dr. J. L. Hancs, of Pine Hall, is
interested in securing assistance
under tho CWA programs to de
velop the mineral resources of
the county.
: it is a well known fact that
I many fine deposits of iron, mica,
! coai. maganese, feldspar, hem
| atite, talc, and other minerals
exist in Stokes county. Iron was
manufactured in Catalan forges
before and during the civil war
on a considerable scale, the pro
(Ui'\ being of a superior quality.
Mica of a superb class was de
veloped commercially for a num
-1 ber of years as late as 1922. The
Hawkins mica mines near Snow
' Creek are proverbial for their ex-
I jcllence.
ij Coal exists in important quan
tity and quality on Town Fork
•; creek, or nearby, and is at present
1 ' in the process of being mined on
J a commercial scue.
■I Many other minerals of At
'.quality are present at numbers of
II places in the co inty. * T— ' *

that many persons could thus be
s given employment.
