A reprint of K. V. Lindell's article from the June and July 1952 issues of Western Miner (Vancouver, B.C.) on Canadian Johns-Manville's Jeffrey mine at Asbestos, Quebec, which it calls the largest asbestos mine in the world. The author, a company vice-president and former mine manager, covers chrysotile geology and the mine's history from its 1881 opening. The article then describes open-pit spiral benching, the block-caving underground mine that began production on February 22, 1950, and surface buildings clad in Corrugated Transite.
