Arizona Chrysotile Asbestos Co., Globe, Arizona

The Arizona Chrysotile Asbestos Company of Globe, Arizona, appears in the U.S. Bureau of Mines' Minerals Yearbook as a seller of chrysotile from Arizona; these pages do not print the name of its mine.¹ The yearbook's asbestos chapters from 1938 to 1944 list it each year among the companies that made sales, and the 1938 chapter says those sales of chrysotile came entirely from mines in Gila County.^{1,2,3,4,5,6,7} The yearbook for 1945 says the company "continued to be the largest producer in the State," and for 1946 that it "was again the largest producer in the State."^8,9 For 1948 the yearbook lists "Arizona Chrysotile Asbestos" among the firms and individuals active in Arizona.¹⁰

The documents report this mine producing asbestos fiber for sale.⁸
