Summary

Vermiculite, a fibrous mineral with many commercial and industrial uses, was mined in Libby, Montana, from 1923 through the early 1990s, when the mine was closed. While the mine was operating, ore was shipped to hundreds of processing and receiving sites throughout the United States. This document presents detailed information about each of these sites, including the site's location, amount of ore received, and type of facility, as well as whether EPA visited the site, conducted sampling, and completed further action, if needed.
