MS-002 Calumet and Hecla Mining Companies Collection Finding Aid

OVERVIEW

The purpose of these indexes is to assist the researcher in discovering the extent of the types of information available to him/her. Accordingly, notes to each section of the C&H finding aide provide hints regarding sources of the files, but are conclusions drawn after only cursory glances at contents. Due to time and funding limitations no attempt was made to create an exhaustive list of contents of Boxes or Folders in this collection. This has been left to the individual researchers who use this collection. We hope, that in the spirit of cooperation, those who find errors or make exhaustive lists will share their information with the Archives.

Incoming and outgoing correspondence were filed together unless noted otherwise. There may be other items regarding the same subjects in other folders in different record groups. Some correspondence is located in the files of the subsidiary companies. Some information on the subsidiaries may be found in the main C&H department records. Because some individuals held different positions of authority at different time periods or in held positions both in the main C&H company and in one or more subsidiaries, they may have had files in more than one location. A glance at the finding aid guide will help in identifying other possible Record Series which may contain information. Files which spanned a large number of years, several corporate ownerships, or several subsidiaries were placed in the main C&H files instead of in the subsidiary files.

If you, the researcher are not already familiar with the C&H company or much of its history, a historical framework on which to hang your new information can be gained by reading a few overviews by various authors. There are two small pamphlets which can together be read in an hour or less that contain quick histories which were written by personnel at C&H. They provide identification by name and title of some prominent men in the company’s history and are located here in the archives They are: The Founding of the Calumet & Hecla Mine: 1866-1916 (Call Number TN443.M5 F6), and Calumet and Hecla: Pioneer, Producer, and Pacemaker, by C&H President Paul W. Robson, 1966. In addition to the historical information, they also provide short descriptions of some of the company’s consolidation and reorganizations, explorations, subsidiaries, divisions, and the locations and products of these subsidiaries and divisions.

Many longer works are also available from the Archives and from the circulating collection. They can be found using the computerized Voyager Catalog. One work of interest is the book: Red Metal: The Calumet and Hecla Story by C. Harry Benedict, 1952, Call Number TN443.M5B4r. Mr. Benedict was the company’s chief metallurgist for many years. Another book Calumet Copper and People–History of a Michigan Mining Community 1864-1970 by Arthur W. Thurner, 1974, Call Number F574.C2 T48 c.9 ARCH, is available in the archives. In addition to discussing important personalities, and common workers, this book gives the reader an overview for both the regional and national economic situations to which the C&H company was forced to responded in order to survive through many years. A book, Calumet and Hecla Consolidated Copper Company is a reprint of a special issue of the Mining Congress Journal Volume 17, Number 10, October 1931, pages 473-565, Call Number: TN 443 .Z6 C287 c.2 ARCH. It is authored by members of the company gives a good overview of the early history of the area, the company, the geology of the copper district, mining methods for the different types of rock, power distribution and haulage, hoisting equipment and methods, transportation systems, milling methods, flotation methods, smelting methods, power generation, mine and surface plants, the medical department, safety practices, industrial and community relations, and cost accounting and methods.

Another book, The History of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, 1883, published by the Western Historical Company, provides information about the early history of the whole upper peninsula and also by counties. The map The Native Copper Mining Era of the Keweenaw Copper Country, Lodes and Mining Locations, 1990, by Tauno Kilpela will help the researcher to locate the places mentioned in the records.

5.11 (Subseries 5.11) Purchasing Department (11 cu.ft.), 1878-1967

The following files originate from the C& H purchasing department and pertain predominantly to purchased supplies for engineering projects of interest to the company. They are placed here as they tend to shed more light on the companies purchasing policies and procedures than its engineering activity.

There may be other files of interest in Record Subseries 6.1–Engineering/Drafting Department since this department seemed to oversee the purchasing and requisitions during most of the company’s early years. Boxes 034-037 contain a set of correspondence files from about 1903-1932. They apparently originate in the purchasing department of C&H in Calumet. Many of the letters are written by or are addressed to Mr. Arvid Baalack, Mechanical Engineer, or the current purchasing agent, one of whom was E.C. Messner, and refer to possible or actual purchases of plant components and their specifications. Therefore, there are many sketches and blueprints included with the letters. Letters are nominally arranged with the most current correspondence in the front of the folder. Files are arranged topically by component or by component and its location of use (eg. Tamarack #5 Water Column.)

5.11.1 (5.11.1) Requisitions, Orders, Invoices, 1878-1967

There may be other files of interest in Record Series 6.1–Engineering/Drafting Department since this department seemed to oversee the purchasing and requisitions during the company’s early years.

In the early years of the company, the chief draftsman also seemed to the chief plant engineer and be in charge of approving requisitions for purchases. He reported directly to the superintendent/general manager. Files in boxes 128-131 resided in the engineering/drafting department and cover a large range of years. H.E. Williams was a mechanical engineer and the chief draftsman from 1901-1946. P.H. Ostlender served as a project engineer, purhasing agent, a construction engineer, and the engineering manager from at least 1947-1961. T.W. Knight was also a chief draftsman, purchasing agent, project engineer, and director of purchases in that department from at least 1948-1961. Ostlender and Knight seemed to have overlapping or shared responsibilities. In 1953 G.H. Mehrens name seems to become the dominant signature with T.W. Knight and R.R. Spencer being shifted to project engineers office.

6.1.2 (6.1.2) Engineering Drawings, 1878-1960's

Original engineering drawings, tracings and blueprints created and collected by Calumet & Hecla were processed separately. This collection of over 80,000 items, including material produced for a variety of departments, has been processed as collection #MS-005, The Calumet & Hecla Drawings Collection. See appropriate finding aid for additional information on this collection.

6.2 (Subseries 6.2) Geology Department, 1903-1970 (19.5 cu.ft.)

Boxes 099-100 Contain files that apparently come from C&H’s geology department. T.M. Broderick was the chief geologist at this time. C.D. Hohl was one of the geologists whose correspondence is included here. T.M. Broderick also served as counselor for the Society of Economic Geologists and was in charge of membership for that society and also for the Geological Society of America (GSA). GSA membership requests are included in these files. T.M. Broderick was chief geologist for C& H during at least the years 1948-1954. H.B. Ewoldt was manager of The Calumet Corporation, a company created to over-see the exploration and development of the Wisconsin zinc-lead endeavor which led to construction of a mine and plant at Schullsburg, Wisconsin. Correspondence used both the Calumet Corporation and the Wisconsin Branch of the Calumet and Hecla Consolidated Copper Co. letter heads.

6.2.2.3 USGS Professional Paper 144

Calumet & Hecla assisted the U.S. Geological Survey in the compilation of its Professional Paper 144, “The Copper Deposits of Michigan” (B.S. Butler and W. S. Burbank, et al, 1929). Aside from mineralogical, geological and petrographic analyses, PP144 also reviewed the mining of copper in the Keweenaw in great detail. Data was collected from a variety of sources (newspapers, geological surveys, mining company annual reports, and other corporate documents) and compiled via an extensive set of abstract files. These files, compiled and maintained by Marie J. Scholz (a C&H secretary) are preserved in the Archives reading room). C&H continued to update the files well into the 1950's. See related records in section 8.

6.2.3 (6.2.3) Geological Reports and Notebooks, 1903-1970

After C&H’s consolidation was complete in 1923, it set out to inventory its assets in mineral reserves. The geological department carried out a program of diamond drilling bore holes in order to establish the boundaries of the ore bodies. Some of the log summary reports are held in this collection, but the MTU Geology Department has microfiche of the original data collection and reports.

7 RECORD SERIES 7 Divisional Records, 1902-1968 (14 cu.ft.)

Uncertain copper prices during the early part of the century encouraged Calumet and Hecla to become less dependant on primary copper production. The company embarked on an effort to broaden the scope of their activities, reorganizing several times into new divisions controlling enterprises in copper tube fabrication, timber products, uranium, magnesium and lead mining activities as well as secondary copper and foundry operations. Michigan copper mining activities were placed under their own division, referred to as the Primary Products Group or Calumet Division at various times. Distinct record series from distinct C&H divisions are collected in this records series, though additional records from specific operations are be included in other parts of the collection.

After the war, C&H embarked on an effort to broaden the scope of their activities to make them less dependent on primary copper production. Divisions were created for new C&H enterprises in copper tube fabrication, timber products, uranium, magnesium and lead mining activitiesm as well as secondary copper and foundry operations. Michigan copper mining activities were placed under a separate division, referred to as the Primary Products Group or Calumet Division at various times. A secondary copper department was established. Then a fabricating outlet was acquired in 1942 when C&H purchased all the assets of a tube fabricating operation, the Wolverine Tube Co. of Detroit. This company fabricated seamless non-ferrous tubing. Their expertise allowed C&H to expand into markets requiring metals other than copper. Their knowledge was also available to the foundry products section of C&H. This tube fabricating company became the center for an entire division–Wolverine Tube Division. This division, under C&H, also expanded into fabrication and marketing of aluminum tubing. It built a plant in Decatur, Alabama. Their markets were expanded into Canada by the acquisition and creation of Canadian subsidiaries: Flexonics, which manufactured flexible metal tubing, and C&H of Canada Limited, which was the Canadian equivalent of Wolverine Tube and marketed C&H’s products. In 1952, C&H Consolidated Mining Co. changed its name to Calumet & Hecla, Incorporated to reflect its diversification into more than just mining enterprises. The Goodman Lumber Co. acquisition was split off into a division called the Goodman Lumber Division and later the Forest Products Group. This division also managed the timber utilization from the lands originally acquired for mineral rights. The original mining operations of C&H were at one time named the Calumet Division, and at another time named the Primary Products Group In 1958 C&H acquired Alabama Metallurgical Corporation (Alamet) which mined and refined magnesium ore from dolomite. Later Alamet was dissolved and became the Alamet Division of C&H. The Calumet Division of Calumet & Hecla, Inc. consisted of the those departments which were responsible for mining and refining copper, the foundry products, and copper chemical products. Later this division was renamed the Primary Products Group. The records pertaining to this division are indexed in the appropriate series in the main C&H company records. [From Notes file.]

7.1 (Subseries 7.1) Wolverine Tube Division, 1902-1968 (10 cu.ft.)

There may be other files of interest related to this division in Record Series 6.3.2–Patent Files, and in Record Series 6.3–Research and Development/Product Development & Planning. Boxes 342 Folder 006 through folder 013 contain records of the Chicago Tubing and Braiding Co.. CTBC absorbed Dreyer Specialty Co.and in 1937 changed its name to the Chicago Metal Hose Corporation. CMHC absorbed its wholly owned subsidiary Fort Dearborn Manufacturing Co. Indications are that later Chicago Metal Hose Corporation became the Wolverine Tube Corporation or was absorbed by it. So, those files are indexed here. The Eastern Exploration Co had been created in 1935 for investigation into the Goldfield, Nevada properties owned by Goldfield Consolidated Mines Co. When these explorations failed to prove worthwhile, the Eastern Exploration Co corporate shell was used for the newly acquired Wolverine Tube Corp. This maneuver allowed C&H to keep the Wolverine Tube trademark. Later the corporation was dissolved and became the Wolverine Tube Division of C&H.

7.2 (Subseries 7.2) Forest Products Division, 1907-1967 (1 cu.ft.)

In the 1950's, C&H acquired the Goodman Lumber Co. of Goodman, Wisconsin. In addition to its timber lands, sawmill, and veneer mill, this well run firm provided the expertise to manage the vast timber rich acreage that C&H had already acquired with its mining rights and land acquisitions. Reorganization of the management of C&H created the Goodman Lumber Division, and a later management reorganization gave it the title of the Forest Products Group. This division produced pulpwood for the paper industry, lumber for construction, and hardwood veneer for doors, panels, furniture and cabinets. Offices were located in Escanaba, MI, with facilities in Goodman and Mellen, WI; Mohawk, MI; and Sault Ste.Marie, Ontario, Canada. Its forests were in Northern Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. [From notes file]

C&H acquired the Goodman Lumber Co. of Goodman, Wisconsin in the 1950's and eventually developed the small company into its own lumber and timber products division. The only surviving records are listed below and pertain predominantly to the period when Goodman operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the larger company. Also included are records of L.H. Shay Veneer and Pick Timber Company, two Canadian-based timber subsidiaries.

7.4 (Subseries 7.4) Alamet Division (Alabama Metallurgical Corporation), 1958-1966 (0.5 cu.ft.)

In the late 1950's C&H continued to plan for future products. This planning included a developmental program in the new exotic metals such as zirconium, titanium, columbium, molybdenum, tantalum and vanadium. C&H entered into an agreement with Brooks & Perkins Incorporated of Detroit to acquire a 70 per cent interest in the Alabama Metallurgical Corporation which was a company organized to produce primary magnesium from dolomite. Construction was started on a new plant at Selma AL. These facilities later became a wholly-owned subsidiary and still later were integrated into the company as its Alamet Division. The Alamet Division had a dolomite quarry at Briarfield, AL. Magnesium reduction, ferrosilicon plants, and divisional offices were located at Selma, AL. They produced primary magnesium in pig and ingot form. The magnesium was used in aluminum alloys (Wolverine Tube’s Decatur, AL plant) and it was used as the alloying agent which makes cast iron ductile. It was also used to reduce titanium, beryllium, and zirconium compounds to metal. Alamet also produced ferrosilicon for reduction in the production of primary magnesium, and as an alloying or cleaning agent in the manfacture of steel.

7.5 (Subseries 7.5) Flexonics Division, 1934-1968 (1 cu.ft.)

Although the Flexonics Division’s main operations were in Bartlett, Illinois, additional operations occurred in Canada. Additional records concerning C&H of Canada can be found in section 8.32. 064 007 Service Agreement 1958-1963 064 004 Directors Records 1934 - 1968 064 005 Directors Records 1955-1961 064 008 Task Force 1958 - 1960

The Flexonics Divsion was located in Bartlett, IL. They manufactured flexiblemetal hose, metal bellows, expansion joints, compensators and ducting assemblies. This product line was produced for transfer of fluids and gases in lines subject to movement. Some of its specific applications included industrial machinery, fuel lines and air ducts in aeronautics, and fuel and liquid oxygen lines in space vehicles. Calumet & Hecla (Canadian) Limited, operated two divsions whose products corresponded to those of the Wolverine and Flexonics Divisions in the U.S. They oversaw all of the Canadian markets. E.R. Lovell was president of C&H Canada, Limited. He was suceeded by H.Y. Bassett in June of 1957. (See Appendices 2 & 3 for a listing of C&H’s executives with dates.) [from notes file]

8 RECORD SERIES 8 Subsidiary and Related Companies, 1855-1972 (138.6 cu.ft.)

The following record series includes records for subsidiaries and other companies related to the Calumet and Hecla enterprise. Included are records for specific companies that predate Calumet and Hecla involvement, particularly the early corporate records of mining companies purchased by the larger company after a change in Michigan mining laws in 1905. Additional records may be listed in section 4.4, Generalized Office Files, and efforts have been made to double-list entries in both sections. Descriptions in this record series have purposely been kept austere to present an objective representation of the actual records. Background on particular companies should be sought in other resources in the MTU Archives.

[From notes file:]There may be other articles of interest to be found listed in Record Series 3.2–Directors’ Minutes, by-Company Name or in Record Series 6–Departmental Records by project, mine name, or subsidiary name. There are reports regarding individual companies in Record Series 4.3.4 Reports Submitted to the General Manager’s/Superintendents’ Offices, in particular under the heading “Monthly Reports”. Some of the accounting files pertaining to company subsidiaries may be found in Record Series 5.4 Accounts Payable/Receivable. Deeds and leases from lands acquired by C&H (often by acquisition of a company) may be found in Record Series 9.2 Leases/Land Contracts/ Deeds The researcher unfamiliar with the history of this region’s mines, companies, and locations is advised to read the brief C&H acquisitions history located in the Appendix 1. This history not only discusses locations, name changes of mines and companies, but also the confusion in usage of the name “Tamarack” during the company’s history. Also note, that some names were used for the original mining company, the mining shaft that was being worked at the time, for the community name in that locale, and then for the project name when the shaft was reopened at a later time. A similar situation exists for the use of the lode names, and mill names.

8.1 (Subseries 8.1) Mining Properties, 1859-1969 (104.5 cu.ft.)

8.1.1 (8.1.1) Ahmeek, 1867-1969 (11.5 cu.ft.)

The Ahmeek Mining Co. was incorporated in 1880. The Ahmeek property consisted of a tract of 920 acres on the mineral range, lying immediately west of the Mohawk between the Mohawk and Allouez mines. The property was acquired from the Seneca Mining Company. In 1903, boundary lines were rectified by exchange of acreage with Allouez and in 1909 by an exchange with Mohawk. This exchange gave straight boundary lines on the dip of the bed, permitting easier development by all mines concerned. In 1911 a triangular plot of about 11 acres lying north of the #2 shaft which contained the Kearsarge lodes was acquired. 2 shafts were sunk in the late 1870's to intercept the Kearsarge lode, but were abandoned at shallow depth, without success. Opening of the Mohawk mine showed that the northern extension of the Kearsarge lode has a strike inclining more sharply eastward north of the Wolverine and Kearsarge than on those properties, which explains why the shafts did not reach the lode. The underlay of the Kearsarge Lode is possessed by the Ahmeek, though at great depth, except in the southern end of the property. The southern 320 acres of the Ahmeek were valuable to the Kearsarge branch of the Osceola Consolidated Company. The Kearsarge Lode was considered second in value only to the Calumet Conglomerate, so it was no wonder that C&H had its eye on this property. The Ahmeek Mining Company controlling stock was secured in 1905 by C&H in a hostile takeover. Though it was run as a separate legal entity, it was run more and more as a part of C&H until finally it was absorbed in the consolidation of 1923. Prior to the C&H control of the company, its board of directors shared members with Osceola Consolidated. Its ore was stamped at the Osceola and the Tamarack Mills. The mine had rail connections with both the Mineral Range Railroad and the Keweenaw Central Railroad and was connected with the mill by the Mineral Range Railroad which entered the mill over a steel trestle 100 feet high. After control of the mine by C&H was achieved, the Kearsarge Lode extent was defined by diamond drilling. A stamp mill called the Ahmeek Mill located at Tamarack City, on Torch lake, went into commision in 1910. It had about 2000 feet of frontage on Torch Lake with a maximum water depth of 90 feet which provided room for tailings. (In 1996, the remains of a stamping head of this mill can be found at the end of Sixth Street in Tamarack City. The waste sands, along with those of the Tamarack Mills stretch far into the lake and are used for treatment of sewage for the communities of Tamarack City and Hubbell.). The Ahmeek mine was shut down for about a year at the end of the post World War I depression in 1921. After the C&H consolidation, the Ahmeek mine became part of the Kearsarge Branch. The Ahmeek Mill continued to process ore for Ahmeek. Seneca Copper Corporation, Peninsula Copper Company lands, the Osceola amygdaloid, and for Isle Royale (another of C&H’s holdings located south of Portage Lake). In 1924 a railroad extension from the Ahmeek mine to the Ahmeek Mill was begun. Mining operations were suspended from 1932-until 6, during which, the mine was kept unwatered. In 1939, the Calumet conglomerate lode operations ceased. The Ahmeek mine and the 2 reclamation plants were the remaining operating units in the Calumet area. Search for extensions of the ore bodies in the surrounding lands was accelerated, lands were acquired, and in 1944 the North Kearsarge, Centennial, Douglass, Peninsula Mines with some added production from the exploratory projects of Iroquois, Central, Allouez No. 3 were added to C&H’s output. In 1949, all the mines were shutdown for 6 months. The economy changed sufficiently and they were reopened. In 1959, the Ahmeek #3 was worked out and closed. Search the records for further details since the Annual reports cease giving summaries of mine operations during this time period For other time books look in other company, mine, or mill names in this same series and in Series 10.1.2 Time by the same method.

The following folders in this subseries had the boldfaced words in their titles. However, the names: Ahmeek shaft, Ahmeek mine, Ahmeek Mill, and Ahmeek were all used through the years. Ahmeek referred to the portion of the operation by that name that was functioning at the particular time period the records were generated; distinctions were made only when it wasn’t obvious to all concerned at that time. Therefore, there may be considerable intermixing of material with only slightly different folder labels.

8.1.2 (8.1.2) Allouez, 1859-1968 (3.5 cu.ft.)

This mine was opened in 1859, on the wide conglomerate lode underlying the greenstone. This conglomerate was named, as was the custom, by the name of the mine which first opened upon it. Solid production did not occur for about 10 years. In 1869, Allouez began mining on the Allouez conglomerate, underlying the greenstone. The company ran out of money in 1877 and stopped work. For 2 years the mine was leased to Messrs. Watson and Walls who turned a profit. Control of the mine was resumed in 1880, but inability to turn anticipated profits prompted a further expenditure in development and improvements. In 1885 the mine was leased a second time to Watson and Walls, who again turned a profit. The company took over operations again but was again unable to turn a profit. The last regular production was 1892. The mine remained idle until some development and exploratory work was carried out in 1898. In addition to the tract of 520 acres on which the mine was located, the Allouez company owned considerable land to the northward. A mill, connected with the mine by a rairoad was located on Hill’s creek and contained 3 stamps. In 1900 the Allouez Mining Company which had recently passed from the Stanton management to the so-called Fay group, of which Messrs. H.F. Fay and associates were in control. This was the group that controlled the Osceola/Osceola Consolidated Mining Company. In 1905 production was begun at the Centennial mill and the mine turned a profit from ores on the Kearsarge amygdaloid. In 1907 C&H acquired control of the company. At the same time, the mine used its profits and borrowed cash from C&H to secure 50% interest in the Centennial Mill. Allouez Mining Company became part of C&H during the consolidation in 1923. In 1963, Allouez #3 shaft provided access via a crosscut to the Kingston conglomerate workings.

Calumet & Hecla Incorporated began a project called the Boleo Copper Project to remove the remaining copper from tailing dumps owned by Imulsora Minera de Industrial de Baja California, Mexico. Compania Minera Santa Rosalia of Santa Rosalia, Baja California, Mexico was owned by Impulsora and was subcontracted to provided the plant site and labor for the project. The company, Calumet de Mexico, was created in January of 1958 by C&H to oversee the entire operation.

8.1.4 (8.1.4) Centennial, 1888-1968 (12.5 cu.ft.)

The first mining at the Centennial mine was performed by the Schoolcraft Company in 1863. The company went bankrupt in the late 1870's after expending its efforts on the Calumet conglomerate lode. The property was reorganized as the Centennial Mining Company in 1876 and again became bankrupt in the early 1890's. This time it was reorganized as the Centennial Copper Mining Company in 1896. It shared members of the board of directors with Osceola’s. The property comprised little more than one square mile lying just north of the Calumet branch of the C&H, and a small 20 acre patch taken from the Old Colony tract to the east which carried an outcrop of the Kearsarge lode that underlies the main Centennial tract. Without this small patch, the lode would have had to be accessed by vertical shafts. St. Mary’s Canal Mineral Land Company, the Shelden-Douglass Estate Company, and the Kearsarge mine were its neighbors on the north. On the east it is bordered by the Wolverine and South Kearsarge mines. On the South it is bordered by the C&H, and on the west, the Tamarack Junior and C&H. After the law changed in 1905 to allow mining companies to acquire stock in other mining companies, C&H acquired a controlling interest in this company. To eliminate some of its debt, it sold its Arcadian Mill property in 1907 to the Lake Milling, Smelting, and Refining Company which operated only to process ores of its participant companies, the Allouez and the Centennial. Later, more shares were sold to Hancock, Isle Royale, and Superior companies. C&H absorbed the company in 1923 in the consolidation and the Centennial mine became part of its Kearsarge Branch. In the late 1950's and early 1960's further exploration of the Calumet Conglomerate Lode was done in the Centennial mines. In 1967, production was started at the #6 shaft and C&H was in the process of bringing its #3 shaft into production.

8.1.5 (8.1.5) Central / Frontenac, 1866-1967 (1 cu.ft.)

At the beginning of the Civil War era there were only a few mines operating profitably. In 1859, there were the Cliff Mine and the Minnesota Mine; in-1864 there were the C&H National, Pewabic, Quincy, Franklin, Central, and Copper Falls Mines. By 1865 only the Cliff and Central mines were surviving and making a profit. The Central mine was owned by the Frontenac Copper Co. It was opened in 1854 and paid a dividend for nearly 40 years. It was closed In 1905, when the laws changed to allow a mining company to hold stock in another mining company, C&H purchased the Frontenac. The Frontenac property consisted of 2,268 acres in Keweenaw County, with the valuable portion being the Central Mine. In the 1940's and again in the late 1960's C&H reexplored these land holdings to determine whether they could mined economically. See the Subseries 8.27–Central Mining Company, below.

8.1.6 (8.1.6) Cliff, 1910-1955 (2.5 cu.ft.)

The Cliff Mine was always known by that name, even though it was operated by the Pittsburgh & Boston Copper Company during the period of its prosperity. It was a magnificently profitable property and the first dividend payer among Lake Superior Mines. As of 1900 it had been practically idle since 1878, though tributors produced a few tons annually after that time The Cliff Copper Company bought the mine from Pittsburgh and Boston for $100,000, but only took out a small amount of copper because It had been opened on a fissure vein which had become exhausted. By 1904, the property had been acquired by the Tamarack Mining Company, which performed diamond drilling in search of the Kearsarge amygdaloid. Control of the Tamarack Mining Company by C&H between 1909 and 1912, also gave C&H control of the Cliff. C&H purchased all of The Tamarack Mining Company’s assets in 1917, which put Cliff lands into the C&H properties. C&H did not include this company in the consolidation since it didn’t appear profitable at that time. The did however explore the mine and lands at a later time to determine whether there were other profitable veins or lodes on the property and whether new mining methods could make reopening the mines profitable. However did not become possible.

8.1.8 (8.1.8) Iroquois, 1886-1962 (2 cu.ft.)

The Iroquois was organized in 1890 as an offshoot of St. Mary’s Canal Mineral Land Company. It Comprised 160 acres, the SW1/4 of Section 7, T56N, R32W, which is just south of Wolverine. It was bought in 1898 by the Osceola and was developed by that company under the name of the South Kearsarge. These holdings were acquired by C&H when it acquired the Osceola Consolidated Company. In the 1940's an extensive diamond drilling program indicated a possible profitable area, and a new shaft was started on the Iroquois lode to further explore this possibility. They were explored again in the 1950's

8.1.9 (8.1.9) Isle Royale, 1897-1953 (2.5 cu.ft.)

The Isle Royale Mine was located south of Portage Lake near Hurontown and was opened in 1852 by the Ohio and Isle Royale Co.. In 1853 a mill was built. The company stopped work in 1857 and the mine was leased to John and Austin Mabbs. The company resumed control of the mine in 1863 and again stopped in 1870 . It again leased the mine to the Mabbs brothers who worked it for some years. The last production was made in 1882. The Grand Portage mine was north and west of the Isle Royale and contained 800 acres originally. The Portage Mining Co. began work on this mine in 1853 and was reorganized as the Grand Portage Mining Co. in 1860. When this corporation became bankrupt, the property was sold to Peter Ruppe, of Hancock, in 1879, and by him transferred to the Isle Royale Consolidated company in 1897 The Isle Royale, Grand Portage, and Huron mines were consolidated in 1897 into the Isle Royale Consolidated Mining Co.. The Frue and Dodge prospects lying south of the Huron were taken into the Miner’s consolidation in 1898 which created the Miners’ Copper Co.. The Isle Royale Consolidated Co. and the Miner’s Copper Companies were merged and became the Isle Royale Copper Co. in 1899. The Isle Royale Copper Co. owned stock in the Lake Superior Smelting Co. The company also owned the Isle Royale Railroad which connected the mine and mill with 4 miles of main line. The millsite at the mouth of the Pilgrim river had nearly one mile of frontage on Portage Lake The Isle Royal Mining Co. was purchased by C&H Mining Co.in 1908/1909. C&H did not include it in the consolidation of 1923 since its operations were 15 miles distant from and not contiguous with its other holdings north of Portage Canal/Lake. The Isle Royale Mill was burned in a fire in 1914.

8.1.10 (8.1.10) Keweenaw Miscellany (Conglomerate Mine, Delaware, Douglass, Keweenaw Copper Co., Manitou), 1864-1966 (7.5 cu.ft.)

The Douglass Mine was organized in 1863. It became part of the Arcadian Mine before 1900. The Northwest Mine was opened on a fissure called the Northwest Fissure in 1847. Reorganization of this company became the Northwest Copper Association. This firm was again reorganized as the Northwest Mining Company in 1849. The mine which had operated at deficit was again reorganized in 1861 as the Pennsylvania Mining Company. Poor operation caused the owners to set off 720 acres from the west side of the property and organize a company thereon under the name of the Delaware Mining Company. The Delaware mine was idle from 1865 to 1972. In 1867, the two companies were merged back together as the Delaware Copper Mining Company. In 1876(?) they built a second mill on Lac LaBelle In 1880 a new company was formed under title of the Conglomerate Mining Company which operated until 1884 (this company built the canal from Lac La Belle to Lake Superior). In 1888, the company was again reorganized as the Lac LaBelle Mining Company. This company was taken over by the Oneida Copper Company, begun in 1899. And it was finally reorganized as the Manitou Mining Comapny which was acquired by C&H. None of the above named companies was able to work the mines profitably, partly due to poor management, but mostly due to lower grade ores in the lodes. These lands were acquired by C&H via acquisition of the Manitou Mining Company. None of the explorations showed the necessary potential for mining copper profitably, though the timber surface rights had value.

A second company the Douglass Copper Company was organized in 1912 by F. W. Nichols. It was formally owned partially by Saint Mary’s Mineral Land Company, by the Boston & Lake Superior Mineral Land Company, and the Sheldon and Douglass Estates. St. Mary’s owned almost 18,000 shares of the 150,000 shares issued. Sometime between 1930 and 1941 Copper Range acquired owner ship of the land. The 1941 Annual Report contains a map, “The Horizontal plan of Working on Kearsarge Lode” which marks the boundary lines of C&H, Peninsula, Douglas and Ojibway lands and indicates their position in relation to the Ahmeek mine. The 440 acres known as the Douglass lands were owned by the Copper Range Company. C&H obtained a 25 year working lease of the property with a graduated royalty scale and yearly termination rights by C&H. The Ojibway and Peninsula properties were obtained at the same time, which allowed access to these areas by underground shaft from the Ahmeek mine. Extensive exploration allowed profitable development of this property for some years. C&H used these lands to access ores of the Houghton Conglomerate.

Records for the Keweenaw Central Railroad Co. are located in Record Series 9.3, Rail Operational Records. The Keweenaw Copper Company was organized in 1905. Lands were extensive, including about 8,600 acres, all in Keweenaw County, MI with about 8000 acres on the mineral belt. Lands included the tracts formerly owned by the Mandan, Medora, Empire, Aetna, Girard, Philadelphia & Boston, Keweenaw, and Vulcan mining companies. It also owned the outstanding stock of the Lac La Belle & Calumet Railroad Company, which had about 8 miles of track in Keweenaw county with a terminus on Lac La Belle. The name of this line was changed to the Keweenaw Central Railroad Co. and plans were made in the company’s opening year to run 35 miles of track between Calumet and Lac La Belle. This railway was to provide the means for revival of the mines in the Keweenaw north of the area of Mohawk, Allouez, and Ahmeek. Mr. Charles A. Wright, the president of the company was also the original promoter of the Copper Range Railroad of the Copper Range Consolidated Company. By 1909, the company had purchased 18,500 acres in total, and the railroad had 40 miles of track, 82 ore cars, 4 locomotives, and 7 passenger coaches. The company’s intent was to become the largest copper producing company in the region. They acquired controlling interest in the Phoenix Consolidated Copper Company, the Meadow Mining Company, the Humboldt Copper Company, and the Washington Copper Mining Company. However, exploration in all of the company’s lands through the years did not result in the opening of profitable mines The Phoenix Consolidated Mining Company was the only mine in operation.. As a result, the railroad’s expenses continued to exceed its revenues. In 1914-1915, the railroad began suspending operations during the winter season. By 1917, the Phoenix mine was closed, and in 1918, some of the railroad equipment had been sold. By 1920, all of the property of the company had been placed on a caretaking status. In 1925-1926, the Humboldt, Meadow, Washington, and Phoenix companies had been dissolved and their assets bought by KCC. In 1926, the company sold 3353 acres to C&H in and about the Cliff Mine and Phoenix mines (the Phoenix had been idle for about 40 years). Furthermore, it sold all but 9 miles of its tracks to C&H, with the remaining 9 miles which operated between Calumet and the Seneca mine was retained, but trackage rights were granted to Copper Range Railroad for this section. In 1927, C&H began unwatering the Phoenix mine for further exploration. In 1930, no profitable ore bodies had been discovered, but, the company recognized the potential of its lands for timber and resort purposes. By 1933, the company had to devalue its stock and sell some assets to pay property taxes. It had almost no revenue, and continued in the same way until 1942 when there are no more company annual reports in these archives. At a later date, C&H acquired all of the rolling stock of the railroad for its own railroad line.

8.1.11 (8.1.11) LaSalle / Tecumseh, 1890-1958 (2 cu.ft.)

After the law changed in 1905 to allow mining companies interest in other mines, C&H began to acquire as much of the surrounding lands as it was able. In 1906, C&H with the St. Mary’s Mineral Land Company, the Caldwell Copper Company, the Shelden and Douglass Estates Companies and the shareholders of the Tecumseh Coppper Company all cooperated to form the La Salle Copper Company. In 1910, The La Salle absorbed the the Caldwell Copper Company and the Tecumseh Copper Company. The La Salle, through the ownership of shares in the Tecumsh Copper Company and by conveyance from the other companies, owned and controlled about 2460 acres, a large part of which were overlying the Kearsarge Lode. The lands adjoined the Osceola company lands on the North. During the consolidation of 1923, this company was dissolved and its assets absorbed into C&H.

This company never did produce much mining or exploring work, but the lands became valuable through the building up of the Calumet mining camp. The property lay to the east of the Calumet & Hecla and Osceola mines. The village of Laurium stood on property sold to them by this company. The company was purchased by the Bigelow/Fay group of investors of the Osceola Consolidated Company. Lands were originally 640 acres in extent, but 65 acres had been sold to C&H some years prior to 1904. In 1904, diamond drilling was begun to locate the southern extension of the Kearsarge lode. When Osceola property was acquired by C&H, this property passed into C&H holdings.

The company was organized in 1907. Work on the property was suspended in 1913. In 1938, the mine was still idle. In 1941, C&H purchased all of the Ojibway Mining Co. lands north of and contiguous to Peninsula Copper Co. lands. In addition, C&H exchanged scattered parcels to block out holdings of both companies in the district. The property was acquired to provide rights to the Kearsarge Lode which was to be accessed via Ahmeek shafts. This land was acquired in conjunction with acquisition of property from the Peninsula Copper Co. and Douglass Copper Co.. See the C&H annual reports for summaries of the explorations.

Opechee Mining Company owned a property on which only a little exploratory work had been done previous to its incorporation with the Osceola in 1879. It forms the southern end of the Osceola Consolidated Company’s Osceola Mine. The community of Opechee residents consisted mostly of Osceola Mining Co. Employees. In 1899-1900 its population numbered 1700. The postoffice was at Osceola station on the Mineral Range R.R., in Osceola Township. A shaft by that name remained.

8.1.15 (8.1.15) Osceola / Kearsarge, 1867-1968 (17.5 cu.ft.)

Osceola Consolidated Mining Company had been formed in 1897 by consolidation of four entirely separate and distinct mines: The Kearsarge Mine (later known as the North Kearsarge) on the Kearsarge amygdaloid, the South Kearsarge (formerly known as the Iroquois), the Osceola Mine (on the Osceola amygdaloid), and the Tamarack Junior Mining Co. In order to smelt their ore, Osceola and the Tamarack Mine gained control of the Lake Superior Smelting Co.(not to be confused with the Lake Milling, Smelting and Refining Co. owned by C&H) which had furnaces at Hancock and at Point Mills near Dollar Bay. Some of the Tamarack and Osceola shareholders formed an independent closed corporation called the Tamarack-Osceola Copper Manufacturing Company which was also located in Dollar Bay. This company made wire and copper sheets. C&H acquired 23% interest in the Osceola Consolidated Mining Company around 1905 which, with the proxy vote, granted them control of the voting stock. Osceola and the independently owned Wolverine (Mining Co?) shafts were between the workings of the Allouez Mining Co. and Centennial Copper Co. which were now controlled by C&H. The directors of Osceola Consolidated legally resisted a C&H effort to include them in a consolidation but finally in 1909 gave up control and also offered their remaining Lake Superior Stockholders Organization (a group organized to legally resist the takeovers by C&H) stocks to C&H. These stocks included the: Seneca Mining Co., Tamarack Mining Co., Ahmeek Mining Co., Isle Royale Copper Co., and Laurium Mining Co.. Finally in 1923, the C&H Mining Co. achieved a consolidation in which C&H with its subsidiaries of Cliff Mining Company (including bonds for Hancock & Calumet Railroad, Mineral Range Railroad Co stock, and Lake Superior Smelting Co), LaSalle Copper Co., Superior Copper Co., and White Pine, joined with Ahmeek Mining Co., Allouez Mining Co., Centennial Copper Co., and the Osceola Consolidated Copper Co., thus becoming the Calumet and Hecla Consolidated Copper Company.

The Osceola lands join with the C&H lands on their north. The original shafts are numbered from north to south. The property has access both to the Calumet Conglomerate and the Osceola Amygdaloid Lode. Other Osceola holdings had access to the Kearsarge Lode. Through the years, the Osceola Amygdaloid Lode produced quantities of copper second only to that produced by the Calumet Conglomerate Lode. In the mid 1950's Osceola #13 shaft was unwatered and reopened. The Osceola was producing copper at least as late as 1967.

Because of the mixed usage of the name “Osceola”, division of the following records in the subseries are sometimes artificial. The boldfaced titles below appeared in the folder headings.

8.1.16 (8.1.16) Ossipee Mining Company, 1867-1877 (0.5 cu.ft.)

This mining company was organized in 1867 E.T Loring, C.H. Palmer, E.D. Brigham, and James Beck. The land was purchased from the Saint Mary’s Mineral Land Company of from E. T. Loring. The tract consisted of the N1/2 of the N.E 1/4 and the W1/2 of Sec 26, T56 N of R33W. This tract is located to the east and north of Union? St. (Which in 1996 is the street angling off to the right from Highway 41 near the Holiday gas station) in Osceola. The major share holders were Loring and Horatio Bigelow of the Fay Group of investors who were major operators in the Osceola Consolidated Mining Company. The company was dissolved and its assets sold in 1877, but no mention of the buyer is made. The assumption is that the buyer was the Osceola Mining Company. The lands were acquired later by C&H (possibly via Osceola acquisitions), diamond drilling exploration performed, but no profitable ore discovered.

8.1.17 (8.1.17) Portland / Scott, 1868-1871 (1 cu.ft.)

The Portland Copper Co (with lands in T33W, 56N, S14 and the Scott Copper Co. (With lands in T33W, 56N, S22 (To the SW of C&H lands) were both directed by Goodale, Brown and Edwin J. Hulbert (the name is given as Edward J. Hurlbut by the History of the Upper Peninsula, 1883). The Scott property was not developed. The Portland property was located next to Calumet and to Hecla lands. The Portland Mining Co. was also known as the Red Jacket Mining Co. Hulbert had sunk a shaft (the Red Jacket Shaft) of about 100 ft. In 1867, but abandoned the mine after a few months. Hulbert disposed of the mineral rights to the land, which was located next to C&H’s mine, but kept surface rights. By 1893, the village of Red Jacket, on this site, had a population of about 2300 (The village of Red Jacket had been organized by a special act of the State Legislature, passed in the winter of 1874-75. The village,located in the township of Calumet, was renamed Calumet in 1929.) In 1869, the Calumet Mining Co provided $60,000 , the Hecla Mining Co provided $90,000, in cash and notes to purchase the Scott and Portland Copper Companies. The boards of directors were replaced by Calumet and Hecla directors. Shaw and Agassiz held all the stock as trustees. The stock, already owned 100 per cent by one company or the other, was voted for the consolidation. (Benedict). In 1871, the Calumet Mining Company, the Hecla Mining Company, the Scott Copper Company and the Portland Copper Company consolidated into one company called the Calumet & Hecla Mining Company.

8.1.18 (8.1.18) Ropes Gold Mine (Ishpeming Gold Mining Co.), 1929-1950 (2 cu.ft.)

In 1936 C&H began efforts to discover the size and grade of the ore body of the old Ropes Gold Mine, near Ishpeming. This mine was owned by the Ishpeming Gold Mining Co. C&H had acquired 86% of this company’s stock. Exploration continued to look for other orebodies along the same shear zone in which the Ropes Mine lay. Some gold was obtained from the mine, generally enough to cover costs of further exploration. In 1941, C&H acquired the remaining stock in the Ishpeming Goldmining Co. and also made an outright purchase of the land which they had leased. Efforts to develop the mine were stopped in 1942 due to government regulations restricting gold mining. At a later date, the mine was reopened and mined profitably, though there are no records in this collection for this time period.

8.1.19 (8.1.19) Seneca / Peninsula, 1906-1967 (13.5 cu.ft.)

The Seneca Mining Co. was established in 1860. The Ahmeek was set off from the Seneca in 1880. In 1909, C&H acquired 51% of the stock in the Seneca Mining Co. In 1916 the company was reorganized and sold to the Seneca Copper Corporation. This company was formed to acquire control of the Seneca Mining Co.’s stock held by C&H. In 1919, the company purchased 80% of the stock of the Gratiot Mining Co. holdings and in 1920, it purchased the remaining 20%. These holdings comprised 600 acres lying south and east of the Seneca property and carried the Kearsarge amygdaloid lode. In 1919, Seneca acquired a millsite on the north side of Keweenaw point from the Cliff Mining Co. Holdings included a railroad right of way and 346 acres. In 1921, Seneca purchased a 10,000 share interest in the Lake Milling, Smelting and Refining Co. owned by the Hancock which granted them the use of 2 stamps. In 1925 the company, which had become the Seneca Copper Mining Co. was in receivership and a mortgage issued by its predecessor was being foreclosed. To secure good title to its lands, Seneca Copper Corporation organized a new corporation named Peninsula Copper Co. which purchased the property at sales held in both the foreclosure and receivership proceedings. Peninsula Copper Co. offered its stock in exchange for Seneca Copper Corporation bonds, which permitted it to purchase the Seneca property for cash. The Corporation was dissolved in 1918. In 1938 C&H advanced the Seneca Copper Mining Co. cash as a first payment on a 5 year option to purchase the land. This land was added to the Ojibway and Douglass properties to provide for further exploration of the Kearsarge Lode via access from the Ahmeek mine in the early 1940's.

8.1.20 (8.1.20) Shullsburg Lead-Zinc Mine (Wisconsin Branch), 1947-1960 (5 cu.ft.)

The geology of Southern Wisconsin was known for its many shallow zinc-lead ore bodies. C&H began a search for an ore body of sufficient size to warrant a profitable mining operation. A subsidiary, the Calumet Corporation was formed in 1947 to explore and operate in the district. An ore body of sufficient size was discovered near Shullsburg and a mine constructed. The mine became operational, rather than exploratory in 1950. The mine’s life expectancy was known at the start of the operations but exploration for other bodies was continued in the hopes of finding others which would extend the life of the surface plant.

8.1.21 (8.1.21) Superior, 1899-1925 (2 cu.ft.)

The Superior Copper Company was organized in 1904. By 1906, C&H had purchased controlling interest in the company controlled its development. Property consisted of 400 acres and carried about 6000 feet of the strike of the Baltic amygdaloidal bed, between the Isle Royale and Atlantic mines. It had two workable lodes, the Baltic locally known as the Superior, and the West Lode, discovered in 1911. Ore was processed at the Atlantic Mill. Production began in 1909. In 1920 the mine was closed down with no further plans for reopening. A gradual liquidation of the company’s assets was begun in 1922 since extensive exploration showed no nearby ore bodies and no further profitable ore at the mine. This company also owned stock in the Lake Milling, Smelting, and Refining Company which operated only to process ores of its participant mining companies.

8.1.22 (8.1.22) Tamarack, 1880-1960 (7 cu.ft.)

For Tamarack Reclamation see Record series 7.5, Reclamation. See also Series 8.1.1, Ahmeek Mine/Mill above.

There is confusion in the listings under the word “Tamarack” due to the history of its usage. The book, Tamarack Town–Mines, People, Places, by Paul T. Steele, 1982, Call Number F574.T35 S73 1982 c.1 ARCH, contains photographs and descriptions of the mines, mills, and town of that name. There is the Tamarack Junior Mine which was originally a portion of the Tamarack Mining Co. on the Calumet Conglomerate but was set off in about 1890 as an independent mine. There is the Tamarack Mining Co. which was organized about 1880 to mine the lower part of the Calumet Conglomerate vein. Its lands consisted of 8,640 acres including the main mine tract of 1,120 acres of the mine tract which were completely surrounded by C&H lands. The tract was located on the western side of the town of Calumet and a location of houses by that name still exists in 1996. The company owned and operated a hospital. It operated as an independent company until between 1909 and 1912, when C&H gained controlling interest. In 1917, Calumet and Hecla Mining Company purchased all of its assets. In order to smelt their ore, Osceola and the Tamarack Mine gained control of the Lake Superior Smelting Co. (LSSC) (not to be confused with the Lake Milling, Smelting and Refining Co. owned by C&H) which had furnaces at Hancock and Dollar Bay. Some of the Tamarack and Osceola shareholders formed an independent closed corporation called the Tamarack-Osceola Copper Manufacturing Company which was also located in Dollar Bay. This company made wire and copper sheets. In 1897 Osceola Consolidated Mining Company was formed by consolidation of four entirely separate and distinct mines: The Kearsarge Mine (later known as the North Kearsarge) on the Kearsarge Amygdaloid, the South Kearsarge (formerly known as the Iroquois), the Osceola Mine (on the Osceola Amygdaloid), and the Tamarack Junior Mining Company. The mills of C&H, the Osceola Consolidated Mining Co.,and the Tamarack Mining Company were all located on the western shore of Torch Lake. The names of the current communities, from South to North along the lake and highway M-26 are: Dollar Bay, Mason, Tamarack City, Hubbell, and Lake Linden. The Tamarack Mining Company built its No. 1 Tamarack Mill in 1887. It was located north of the Osceola mills at the extreme southern boundary of what is now called Tamarack City (by county highway sign) or Tamarack Mills (by the residents). Subsequently, The Tamarack Mining Company built its No. 2 mill on its southern side between its No. 1 mill and the Osceola Mill. The Tamarack No. 1 mill treated ores from the mines of the Tamarack Mining Company on the Calumet Conglomerate vein until C&H Mining Company bought all of its assets. They continued stamping rock at the site until 1920 when the mill ceased operation, the Tamarack #1 mill was dismantled, since it was considered a fire hazard. The Centenial Mining Co.owned the Lake Milling, Smelting, and Refining Co. (LMSRC). Some shares were sold to Allouez, Hancock, Isle Royale, and Superior. LSMSRC operated its No.1 mill at Point Mills. The Tamarack No. 2 Mill was sold to the Lake Milling, Smelting, and Refining Company (who in annual reports state its location as Hubbell) by the Tamarack Mining Co. in 1914 and became known as the Lake No. 2 Mill. It operated with several periods of shutdown from 1914 through 1930. LSMSRC performed milling for only its shareholders on a fee basis meant simply to return its cost. Since its share holders were all included in the C&H consolidation, so was this company. Tamarack #2 tailings were deposited in an area between the Osceola sands and the Tamarack Sands. The rights to the sands had originally belonged to Osceola which had transferred them to Lake. In 1915, development of C.H. Benedict’s ammonia leaching process allowed C&H to build a plant at Lake Linden to reclaim the copper that it previously lost in its tailings. This was called both the Calumet Reclamation Plant and the Lake Linden Reclamation Plant and operated from 1915 until 1953. In 1925 C&H built, a similar reclamation plant for the purpose of reworking the conglomerate sands produced from the Calumet conglomerate ore by the Tamarack Mining Company. This was called the Tamarack Reclamation plant, even though the Tamarack Mining Company had been dissolved in 1917. The plant continued to operate on these sands until they were exhausted and the plant was modernized and its activities were transferred to the amygdaloid sands produced by the Osceola and Lake Mills.

8.1.23 (8.1.23) White Pine, 1907-1929 (2.5 cu.ft.)

The White Pine Mine is in the Porcupine Mountain district, about two miles from the Nonesuch with its ore coming from the Nonesuch Lode. It was originally owned by the St. Mary’s Canal Mineral Land Co.. The mine was opened in 1881 and closed in 1882. With the change in the laws governing mining company ownership of other mining companies in 1905, C&H purchased this mine along with the Nonesuch. This mine had never been a producer and was idle for many years until resumption of prospecting work in 1906. The land and mineral rights were purchased by C&H from the Keweenaw Association and the Porcupine Mountain Co.. In 1907 C&H explored the area by diamond drilling. Results proved promising so in 1909 C&H organized the White Pine Copper Co., a wholey owned subsidiary A 9 mile railroad line connecting it to the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul R.R. was completed in 1915. The mine was sold at auction to Copper Range Co. in 1920 for its debts. Records after this sale are not in this collection.

8.2 (Subseries 8.2) Explorations and Mining Projects, 1899-1972 (14 cu.ft.)

C&H was able to survive the economic swings of fortune primarily because of their vast mineral land reserves and their exploration policy. Their policy throughout their existence was to always have sufficient knowledge of their ore reserves to enable them to plan their mining endeavors for the next 15 years. As a result, the company was always in the process of performing exploratory drilling, often in several locations at once. Though some of these explorations suceeded, the majority only proved the absence of profitable ore bodies. The data and economic feasibility reports from these explorations were kept close at hand should economic conditions shift in such a way to make a previously unprofitable endeavor suddenly profitable again. In this way the Centennial mine was reopened and became one of the last mines to close.

8.2.1 (8.2.1) Goldfield, Nevada, the Eastern Exploration Company and Augustus Locke, 1919-1944 (6 cu.ft.)

C&H created the Eastern Exploration Co. in May of 1935 for investigation into the Goldfield, Nevada properties which were owned by Goldfield Consolidated Mines Co. The explorations failed to prove worthwhile and were given up in August of 1938. These files document C&H’s work in Goldfield, Nevada. After liquidation of the Eastern Exploration Co. assets, the assets of the newly acquired Wolverine Tube Co.were transferred to the Eastern Exploration Co. Then, Eastern’s name was changed to the Wolverine Tube Corporation These actions enabled C&H to keep the Wolverine Tube trademark(s).

8.2.1.10 Exploration Reports of Augustus Locke

Augustus Locke (1883-1981) worked as a staff geologist for the Goldfields Consolidated Mining Co., Nevada, (1910) before joining the Secondary Enrichment Investigation, financed by a group of major copper companies (1913-1915). He conducted exploration in North America for the Calumet and Hecla Consolidated Copper Co.. From 1915 on, he was a consulting mining geologist in San Francisco. Locke’s work was worldwide in scope, including extensive mineral resource studies in the western United States, Mexico, Canada, and Cuba and less extensive work in South America, Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Philippines. He collaborated with numerous other geologists, including George Tunnel, H.M. Kingsbury, Paul Billingsley, P.F. Boswell, Roland Blanchard, E.H. Wisser, and E.H. Perry. Locke was the author of many reports that were addressed to the Calumet and Hecla Consolidated Copper Co.. A larger collection of Locke material is on deposit at the International Archive of Economic Geology at the University of Wyoming–Laramie.

8.2.2 (8.2.2) Hills Creek Project, 1965-1970 (3 cu.ft.)

The following files come from the engineering department, when T. W. Knight was the director. C&H attempted to open the north end of the Calumet Conglomerate with a vertical shaft in the northwest quarter of T56N, R33W. It was known ast the Calumet Conglomerate Project first, and then later as the Hills Creek Project for the creek running across the property. The project proved too marginal to proceed.

In the 1970's, C&H, now a subsidiary of Universal Oil Products (UOP), leased lands lands in the area of the Centennial Mine to the Homestake Mining Co. Shoud the mines prove profitable, C & H would gain by the contract’s royalty provisions. However, copper and labor prices conspired to prevent the mine from being brought back to a production basis.

During the early 1940's, C&H in conjunction with The Harshaw Chemical Co. of Cleveland, Ohio, conducted extensive research on copper chemicals. The Lake Chemical Co. owned 50% by C&H and 50% by Harshaw was organized in 1945 for the purpose of marketing the chemical products from the patents assigned by Harshaw to Lake. The original products were: an agricultural chemical, Copper Oxychloride Sulphate, known to the trade as COCS, which was used as a fungicide on fruits, and the chemical, Copper Hydrate used in mildew proofing compounds required by the armed services. Space in the Tamarack reclamation building was leased to Lake. C&H was to oversee plant operation, and Harshaw was to oversee marketing.

8.3.3 (8.3.3) Lake Milling Smelting & Refining Co., 1906-1946 (2.5 cu.ft.)

The Centenial Mining Co.owned the Lake Superior Milling, Smelting, and Refining Co. (LSMSRC). Some shares were sold to Allouez, Hancock, Isle Royale, and Superior. LSMSRC operated its No.1 mill at Point Mills. The Tamarack No. 2 Mill was sold to the Lake Milling, Smelting, and Refining Company (who in annual reports state its location as Hubbell) by the Tamarack Mining Co. in 1914. After C&H’s consolidation, it became known as their Lake No. 2 Mill. Lake Superior Milling, Smelting and Refining Company (LSMSRC) performed milling for its shareholders only on a fee basis meant simply to return its cost. Since its share holders were all included in the C&H consolidation, so was this company. The #1 mill at Point Mills ceased operation in 1924. By 1927, parts of the #1 mill had been sold off. It was dismantled in 1929. The #2 mill continued to operate, first on Seneca ore and later on C&H’s Osceola Lode ore until 1930 when it was shut down. It remained idle until 1942, when it ceases to mentioned.

The Lake Superior Smelting Company (LSSC) was built in what is now the community of Ripley at the location of the present Houghton County Road Commision buildings on the lake side of highway M-26. It was owned by the Tamarack Mining Company, The Osceola Mining Company and the Isle Royale Consolidated Company. It was operated from 1891. In 1924 it was sold to C&H for debts owed to C&H. C&H acquire its lands and physical assets.

8.3.5 (8.3.5) Mutual Water, Light & Power Co., 1907-1944 (1 cu.ft.)

This company was organized in 1907. Certain property belonging wholly to the Osceola Consolidated Mining Company was transferred to Mutual in exchange for 50% of the stock of the company. The Tamarack Mining Co. owned the other 50%. When Tamarack Mill was purchased by The Lake Milling, Smelting & Refining Company, 30% of the stock (1500 shares) was included with the mill. C&H acquired 20% interest in the Mutual by acquisition of the Tamarack Mining Co. They acquired another 50% interest with the consolidation with Osceola Consolidated. So C&H had acquired 100% of the stock. In 1926, C&H was looking to dissolve the company as a separate entity inorder to economize. (See Box 076 Folder 002) The dissolution was not officially accomplished until 1944.

8.3.7 (8.3.7) Torch River & Lake Improvement Co., 1873-1885 (.1 cu.ft.)

April 17, 1869, the Michigan State Legislature passed a law that authorized the formation of corporations for the purpose of improving the navigation of rivers. The Torch River & Lake Improvement Co was formed in 1873 with capital stock of 1000 shares at $100 each. The share holders: Alexander Agassiz, Charles Seabury, and Quincy Shaw all of C&H, each owned 1/3 of the total shares. The company proposed to make the passage from Torch Lake to Portage Lake (an approximately 2 mile long river named the Torch River) passable for vessel with a draught of 13 feet. Prior to this time, there had been no commercial shipments in this waterway. Dredging of this channel allowed large shipments of ore from their Hecla Stamp Mill (built on Torch Lake in 1867 at what is now Lake Linden.) To Portage Lake, to Lake Superior, to smelters at Buffalo, New York and Detroit. The company was granted a charter of 25 years, however in 1885 the board of directors chose to dissolve the company and create a new company to maintain the improvements already made. The new company was named the Torch Lake Canal Company. This company planned to widen the river to 66 feet at the canal surface and 45 feet wide at the bottom and increase the channel depth to 14 feet for a length of 12,200 feet. Again this company was owned by shareholders who were all C&H executives. All the work was to be arranged and provided by C&H. Tolls were charged for freight, but not for passengers. An August 1969 Daily Mining Gazette article related the current removal of the canal buoys by C&H division. C&H also ran the Calumet Transportation Co, which owned ore carriers which operated on the lakes.

8.4 (Subseries 8.4) General Information on Copper Mining in the Keweenaw, 1855-1968 (3.5 cu.ft.)

Like many corporations, C&H maintained a good deal of information about its industrial competitors and media coverage of its own operations. Although not necessarily “spy” information, the material was probably used to remain current on local mineral deposits and mining companies. These resources are likely to have been useful in the company’s search for new acquisitions and cooperative ventures. For more technical information about other companies, there are records in Record Series 6 Departmental Records.
