๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ The flooding in North Carolina has a potential to throw the semiconductor and tech markets into chaos!

The town of Spruce Pine is stranded as the major roads linking it to the rest of North Carolina and the US are flooded. The Spruce Pine Mining District in the Blue Ridge Mountains of northwestern North Carolina, produces mica, kaolin, quartz and feldspar.Spruce Pine district is one of the largest suppliers of high-purity quartz, which is used in the manufacture of silicon for integrated circuits.

The modern economy rests on a single road in Spruce Pine, North Carolina. The road runs to the two mines that is the sole supplier of the quartz required to make the crucibles needed to refine silicon wafers.
