Re: [CBQ] [BRHSlist] Sand Company in Oregon, IL

Ken and List, 

Martin Marietta Corp. operated the Oregon sand mine in the late-CB&Q and early BN eras. It sold the operation to Unimin in 1983.

I know this was probably mentioned at one time or another, but what was the name of the big silica sand company in Oregon, Il in the late 60's and into the BN era? 

The sand mine is currently operated by a company named "Unimin".
