Anyone know anything regarding this?

A former Fe occurrence/mine in magnetite ore located on Warwick Mountain, about 1½ miles south of the Village of Warwick. One of the Warwick group of mines. Ore body was 2 to 8 feet (.6 to 2.6 meters) thick and over ½ mile (> 800 meters) long. Workings included cuts and shafts.

Also known as the Warwick Mine and/or the Warwick Uranium Mine. Ramapo Uranium Corporation was organized to mine this deposit in May, 1956 and filed with the SEC to sell stock on August 13, 1957. The project never got past the exploration stage although a small amount of ore was produced.
 
I'm a fan of local mines, this is what I have.

For the Mania family, November is when they need to be strongest.
It was two days before Thanksgiving in 2004 when Tim Mania was killed while hunting deer not a quarter mile from his family's home.
The Mania family has a reward for $5,000 for the arrest of Timothy's killer.
A school bus driver for Our Lady on the Hill daycare center in Goshen.
Mania, 46, was found shot to death in the woods near his Birdsall Road home the day before Thanksgiving. Still, no arrests.
"(The mystery) is this thing that I have no control over," Mania's niece, Stacey Gray, said this past Thanksgiving. "There are no answers.
And there'll be no answers until someone is caught."

Thanks. I sort of figured that you might know about it.
 
How'd you hear about it?
Reading a 1950s report on uranium locations in the United States. My interest started with a tour of a research reactor in Pawling, NY when I was in high school, and later the MIT reactor on Albany Street in Cambridge, and later I was designing some control system stuff, DNBR monitoring, when the meltdown of Three Mile Island pretty much put the stop to that line of work.
 
i was told that the uranium throughout north/central NJ was ta contrinutor to radon gas..

quick search says yes -
