Uncorrected Forest Service errors block marble mine, TucsonCitizen.com, August 7, 2012. A large deposit of rare, brilliant white marble sits on the north slope of the Dragoon Mountains near the small town of Dragoon, between Benson and Willcox. However, following metallurgical testing at the North Carolina State University Minerals lab, the Forest Service decided that the quarry could be operated under regulations for locatable minerals and allowed exploration and testing to continue.
