The Ophir mine at the foot of Dakota street in Butte, run by Ophir Mining Co led by Samuel Hall, now employs 38 men the largest crew ever and plans output that will double current shipments.

Rich ore runs 50 to 68 ounces of silver per ton and about $1.50 in gold, boosting daily output beyond 50 tons. New shoots found on the 200 foot level promise to lift production, and upgraded gear such as an air compressor and drills signals confidence in the mine’s future.
