Rain Slowdown Hits Ore Transport and Mills
Heavy rains in February and March cripple mining activity with 354 points of rain in March and 297 points over the weekend. Transport of ore to the State Mill is largely blocked, risking a shutdown, while the mill’s renovated Isbell Vanner concentrator runs at full efficiency. Nearby prospecting near Sunnymount reports two rich lodes at 40 feet apart, with initial ore returns and promising development.
