Mining and Quarrying Once Key Industries in County
Ernest Clows notes in The Physical Features of Washington County that limestone and lime production dominated but metal ore waned. Iron deposits exist near Hancock and Clear Spring but were largely unprofitable. manganese near Harper’s Ferry played briefly, flooding ended activity. Limestone underpins much of the terrain, with Beekmantown formations and numerous abandoned quarries. Only Cushwa limestone plant near Williamsport operates on a large scale. other sources support road repair or small uses.
