Huron Copper Mine Seen Worth Four Ball Heads for Forty Years
The Huron mine would have yielded dividends years ago if copper prices held. Six years under new management it produced 60 to 70 tons monthly, later 100 to 130 tons, with potential to match Franklin or Osceola in profitability. Improved treatment facilities could raise output and weather copper market dips, sustaining strong value.
