Granville Talc Mine, East Granville Talc Mine
The East Granville mine, reportedly the largest mine in the state during its period of operation, but long since abandoned, was operated for several years on a talc deposit in northeastern Granville township. The mine site is 0. 3 mile due east of the center of the village of East Granville, and just a few hundred feet west of the eastern border of Granville township. The deposit is at an altitude of 1150 feet on the steep western slope of a north trending ridge and on the east side of Third Branch of the White River.
