Parrot Copper Mine Fire Cuts Stock Value
Parrot Copper shares fell about $2 on the Boston exchange after yesterday's fire wrecked the hoisting plant and surface buildings. The loss to stockholders totals roughly $480,000 on 220,000 shares, though the company expects final losses under $100,000. The blaze, likely sparked by a locomotive, halted operations as crews cleared debris and prepared to rerun the mine through adjacent shafts. Firefighters, miners, and officials praised swift action and noted no employees were hurt.
