Ymir area mines report mixed results and development
The 1903 minister of mines report covers the Ymir district mines. Ymir mine milled 54,860 tons yielding 11,160 oz gold and 50,060 oz silver plus 515 tons lead, total value about 300,090 dollars, down from last year. Broken Hill and Foghorn properties show renewed activity with extensive tunnel work, new crosscuts, and plans to tap richer veins, while nearby Gold Cup and Arlington operations report modest production.
