Mineral Paint. 



The mineral paint of New York State is from comparatively 

 few localities, and is manufactured from rocks of three 

 different formations: 



1. From Clinton iron ore. 



2. From Cambrian red and gretm slate. 



3. From Chemung shale. 



No statistics of production are furnished by the manufacturers. 



This material is produced as a by-product in several other 

 industries. For instance near Whitehall red and green mineral 

 paint are produced by grinding up the refuse of the slate mills. 

 In Oneida county, paint is manufactured from the Clinton iron 

 ore. At Randolph in Cattaraugus county, paint is made from 

 red shales of the Chemung group. At Roxbury, Delaware 

 county, paint is made from red Catskill shales and at Oneonta a 

 similar pigment has been made.
