2014-12-25 · Illinois displaced Kentucky as the country s leading producer of fluorite in 1942. For many years Illinois accounted for more than 50 of total U.S. fluorspar production. By 1990 due to the cost of mining more than 90 of the fluorite used in the U.S. was importedfrom other countries Illinois was the only remaining domestic producer.
