A Chinese-language history of the Sichuan Asbestos Mine in Shimian County, then China's largest asbestos mine, written in August 1959 for the tenth anniversary of the People's Republic. Its editors describe it as reportage meant for socialist and communist education. It tells of the mine's discovery by local farmers, a British firm's agents taking fiber in 1925, the harsh conditions under the warlord landlord Yang Ren'an and the mine's growth after 1950 from about 50 tons a year to thousands of tons, with chapters on model workers and the mine's Yi miners. It says the old owners gave no thought to labor protection.
