Texas Wisconsin Exploration halts drilling in Sheboygan County
A second search by the Texas Wisconsin Exploration Co. for underground minerals in southern Sheboygan County is halted. Drilling crews moved the last equipment out Wednesday after William Van Driest said bedrock granite was found at 1,876 feet. Five holes were sunk previously, with only one drilled recently before operations were suspended a year ago. The delay comes as Aus Chalmers Mfg Co. proposes to extend the existing labor contract by one year at eight plants with United Auto Workers locals.
