History
With over 50 uninterrupted years of history in wollastonite, NYCO's corporate history dates back to the commercialization of this unique mineral.

The New York deposit in the Adirondack Mountains was discovered in 1810 and initially mined for garnet.

In 1936, the New York deposit was rediscovered as a source of wollastonite. Koert Burnham, son of a garnet miner, pioneered the processing and uses of this mineral.

Since 1953, NYCO has been the leading and original producer of wollastonite. Capitalizing on its mining, processing and marketing expertise, NYCO launched its second operation in Sonara, Mexico in 1997 which remains the world's largest wollastonite mine and processing facility.

Today, NYCO continues to lead the wollastonite industry with its state-of-the-art processing, outstanding technical support and customer service as well as a knowledgeable worldwide distribution network.
