pratt.] COKUNDUM LOCALITIES. 87 
Viiiagegreen. — Large crystals of corundum of a brownish color are 
found near this village, in Aston Township, Delaware County.

SOUTH CAROLINA. 
Anderson County. — Corundum lias been reported from this county, 
but none has been found in placB. 
Energy. — See York County. 
Gaffney. — Corundum, usually of a gray color and in irregular masses 
up to 3 or 4 inches in diameter, has been found about 8 miles north- 
west of Gaffney, on the Island Ford road, near Maud post-office, on 
the Turner Phillips farm. It has not been found in situ, but in the 
gravels of a small stream and as loose fragments in tin* fields on the 
adjoining slopes. The fragments and what few crystals have been 
found are generally free from gangue, but some have been found 
with mica scales attached to them. It is not at all improbable that 
this corundum was derived from a mica-schist. 
L<n< /-(lis. — About 1^ miles northeast of this town, in Laurens 
County, corundum has been found rather abundantly scattered over 
the surface. This surface corundum has been found for a number of 
miles to the southwest of this town. Although no corundum has 
been found in place, it was probably derived from a mica-schist, for 
the country rock in this section is largely a schist, and corundum 
crystals were found with portions of the mica-schist attached to 
them. The crystals are all rough, and vary from small ones 1<> some 
that were over :> inches long and 1 inch in diameter. 
Oconee County. — Corundum has been found on the surface in this 
county, but none has been found in place.

near the North Carolina line, a black corundum has been found quite 
abundantly. (See p. <><'>.)
