==History==
Rosiclare used to be the fluorite capital of the U.S. Andrew Jackson, in 1835, once owned a fluorspar mine in Rosiclare. Wholesale mining of fluorspar first began in Rosiclare, Illinois in 1842.〔cite web|url=http://books.google.com/books?id=ICkFAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA12&lpg=PA12&dq=andrew+jackson+lead+fluorspar+mine+rosiclare+illinois&source=bl&ots=dSV4AfLNca&sig=wDiPmBffWogBVi7QHipbNS-YY0s&hl=en&sa=X&ei=MCyuUtjjMu7isASvuIKICg&ved=0CC8Q6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=andrew%20jackson%20lead%20fluorspar%20mine%20rosiclare%20illinois&f=false〕 Mining ceased when it became cheaper to import fluorite from China, due to that nation's cheap labor. Lead and Fluorspar Mining Company continued to process ore from mines in Hardin County but, closed due to foreign competition in 1996.〔cite web|url=http://books.google.com/books?id=DABEDL2hjkkC&q=lead+fluorspar++rosiclare+illinois&dq=lead+fluorspar++rosiclare+illinois&hl=en&sa=X&ei=lS-uUsT4JrbN〕
