Hunter Mine Leases Employ Thirty Men in Upper Workings
About twelve active leases operate in the upper workings of the Hunter mine, employing roughly thirty men. Leasers are said to earn above average wages, with some earning well over that amount. Gold Hunter Co manager C. T. Herrick could not confirm a restart but hopes conditions may justify reopening after year end. The mine has been inactive for about a year, with freight rates and low lead prices cited as the main shutdown causes.
Hunter mining to resume by year’s start amid price shifts
The report notes lead prices rising, silver fixed at $1 per ounce, and reduced mining costs for materials and supplies. Under these conditions, management expects conditions by the year's start to justify a resumption of operations.
