A COMPANY SEED GROWN FROM A LOCAL ICON’S VISION Consolidated Minerals was founded in 1971 by F. Browne Gregg, a philanthropic entrepreneur and World War II veteran regarded as a local icon by the Leesburg community. The company was later incorporated in 2001, and as Gregg’s health declined, he bequeathed CMI to the local Leesburg Hospital and Cornerstone Hospice upon his passing in 2014. 3 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 11, ISSUE 07 CONSOLIDATED MINERALS INC.
