| | Old Dutch Cleanser Mine |
 | | The naturally-occurring white scouring powder called Old Dutch Cleanser, originally from Kern County, California, is a house-hold helper known throughout the U.S. As a sink, stove, and tub cleaner, the abrasive pumicite is one of the most popular scrubbing agents on the market. |
 | | The original source of this Old Dutch Cleanser material, a pumicite mine hidden underground in the remote Mojave desert, produced 120,000 tons of cleansing powder. |
 | | The Old Dutch Cleanser deposit is the thickest and uppermost of six layers of white, thin-bedded, fine-grained, pumicite. |
