Lead refinery plan to boost Idaho ore through Nelson BC
Nelson in British Columbia is eyed for a new lead refinery backed by Canadian government bonuses, expected to benefit Northern Idaho miners by allowing ore to be refined near the border and shipped back without duties. Rail competition between Great Northern and Canadian Pacific, plus new Kootenay routes, shape ore movement and pricing, with Sullivan company mines and North Star interests shaping refinery plans as fires, road work, and ongoing mining shipments continue across the Boundary region.
