A technical paper by two Union Carbide authors on the New Idria chrysotile deposit near Coalinga, California. It covers the deposit's geology, exploration and open-pit mining, trucking of ore to the King City mill, and the wet milling process. It describes the mill's fiber, colloidal and modified asbestos products, compares their physical properties with Canadian short-fiber grades, and discusses applications in paper, plastics and water treatment.
