Carbon County is a county located in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania, in the United States.

Its county seat is Jim Thorpe, which was founded in 1818 as Mauch Chunk, a company town of the Lehigh Coal & Navigation Company (LC&N) along a new nine-mile-long wagon train the company was constructing to their coal mine in the area now known as Summit Hill.

Carbon County comprises the northern part of the Lehigh Valley and is part of the state's Coal Region and the Allentown–Bethlehem–Easton, PA–NJ Metropolitan Statistical Area.

In 1827, LC&N's wagon road, the Mauch Chunk Switchback Railway, became the nation's second operating railroad. The Beaver Meadow Railroad and Coal Company, also located in Carbon County, was the first railway to operate steam locomotives as traction engines and prime movers in the United States. The railway connected mines west of Beaver Meadows and Weatherly to the Lehigh Canal opposite Lehighton.

Lansfordite (TL)
Formula: MgCO3 · 5H2O
Habit: Encrustations, stalagtitic with crystal faces at the terminations.
Colour: White, with notable waxy luster, translucent to opaque.
Description: Originally discovered by F. J. Keeley and D. M. Stackhouse on the walls and roof of the #1 Tunnel, adjacent to the "fifty foot vein" about 2000' from the entrance. stalagtitic deposits, some with crystal faces at the terminations, and an almost waxy luster were observed. Aided by F. A. Genth, the new species was established. After returning to the collection site, all remaining deposits of "Lansfordite" were removed from the walls and ceiling. It was observed at the site that an alteration of the mineral seemed to have occurred. The the appearence was now chalky white, not waxy. upon testing it was found that the formula remained the same, however with much less water, and thus, another new species "Nesqueonite" was named. Several remaining specimens of "Lansfordite", were housed in the Harvard University collection and preserved in linseed oil and mine water and kerosene, in hopes of preserving it's original compsition. These were later x-ray tested and determined that they too had altered to Nesquehonite. To date [2005], there are no known specimens of Lansfordite remaining from this locality, and no new occurrence has been observed from there since the original find in 1887.
