EXPLANATORY NOTE
Minerals Technologies Inc.

A total of 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock were registered under the Registration Statement for offers and sales under the Minerals Technologies Inc. Stock and Incentive Plan (the "Old Plan").
On May 24, 2001 (the "Effective Date"), the Minerals Technologies Inc. 2001 Stock Award and Incentive Plan (the "New Plan") replaced the Old Plan.

Under the New Plan, the 1,017,268 shares of Common Stock that were available for offers and sales under the Old Plan as

The Carried Forward Shares are hereby removed from the Registration Statement and carried forward to the new Form S-8 Registration Statement (the "New Form S-8") that the Registrant is filing on the date hereof to register the 1,517,268 shares of Common Stock available under the New Plan, including the Carried Forward Shares.
Contemporaneously with the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, the Registrant is filing the New Form S-8.
In accordance with the principles set forth in Interpretation 89 under Section G of the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations of the Division of Corporation Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission (July 1997) and Instruction E to Form S-8, this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 is hereby filed to reallocate the Carried Forward Shares from the Old Plan to the New Plan.
