The Daily Dispatch: October 3, 1862., [Electronic resource], A Mountain of alum. (search)
A Mountain of alum.
--The Marion (N. C.) Enterprise speaks of a mountain, 12 miles South of Morganton, which exudes alum from the rocks on both its sides, evincing the fact that the whole mountain is filled with the triple sulphate of alumini and potassa.
The editor says he has often seen baskets of pure alum taken from the rocks in dry seasons.
