U P Gold Mines Reopened Near Ishpeming by 2 Groups
Two independent groups plan summer reopening of the Ropes and Michigan gold mines near Ishpeming Michigan. The Ropes mine saw shafts sunk to 16 levels and a mill built, yet financial issues halted operations after 1597 with $654.4 in gold and silver recovered but much lost to tailings. The Michigan mine began in 1857 producing rich ore then abandoned as gold thinned. Several Michigan College of Mining graduates will join the reopenings. Approximately a fourth of the South farm area remains forested.
