In 1938, a plant was constructed in El Dorado, Union County, to extract Vandyke brown dye as a product of lignite processing, followed in 1943 by production of the dye from a plant at Malvern, in Hot Springs County. The dye was used in staining ammunition boxes their characteristic brown color during World War II.
Lignite: Lignite coal, aka brown coal, is the lowest grade coal with the least concentration of carbon. Lignite has a low heating value and a high moisture content and is mainly used in electricity generation. The precursor to coal is peat. Peat is a soft, organic material consisting of partly decayed plant and mineral matter.
