South Dakota has considerable resources in the materials for abrasives; these, in the order of quantity, are quartz, corundum and garnet. The quartz most practicable for use is found chiefly in the Black Hills; corundum is secured by process from the alumnia of the shales, and the supply is inexhaustible. Garnet is found in limited quantities in the Black Hills.
