Iron mining activity in the New Jersey Highlands pro bably began about 1710 (Sims, 1958). Maximum pro duction was attained in the early 1880's when New Jersey ranked second only to Michigan in iron ore pro duction. For several years before and during 1880 New Jersey was the leading iron ore producing state. Geologic Setting The magnetite concentrations of the New Jersey
Iron ore is abundant in northern New Jersey, and iron interests have been active since the area's earliest history. The Elizabeth Mine, one of a number of iron ore operations that comprised the Mount Hope Mine, owned by the Mount Hope Mining Company. In 300 years of sporadic operation since 1710, the Mount Hope Mine produced about 6 million tons of iron ore and,

During the 1890s, Thomas Edison launched a New Jersey mining operation to address an iron ore shortage. He designed rock-crushing technology and an electromagnetic ore separator to extract low-grade ore from crushed boulders. The final product -- a briquette made of powdered iron ore -- didn't do well commercially, especially after high-grade ore was discovered around
Because iron and steel-making at the time consumed more coal than iron ore, the steel mills moved closer to the coal mines to minimize transportation costs. Although later overshadowed by production from the Lake Superior mines, iron ore mining in New Jersey and New York continued until the 1960s. Iron mining in Pennsylvania ended in 1973.

The Edison Ore-Milling Company was a venture by Thomas Edison that began in 1881. Edison introduced some significant technological developments to the iron ore milling industry but the company ultimately proved to be unprofitable. Towards the end of the company's life, Edison realized the potential application of his technologies to the cement industry and formed the Edison Portland Cement

The beauty of the Ramapo Mountains that stretch from New Jersey into New York was known even in Europe in the 1700s when men came looking for gold and silver. Good as gold, they found iron ore instead. Since overseas resources had been nearly depleted, iron had become an expensive commodity. The ore here was magnetite, the richest kind of iron ore, and the topography was perfect for the iron
