The Penn Canadian and Bailey Mine are on the same vein system that overlaps both properties. They are both on the west shore of Glen Lake and as such have also been refered to as the Glen Lake Mine. The mines shut down in 1971 and produced about 7 million oz. of Ag. The deposit was mined by 4 shafts to a maximum depth of 455 feet and an adit.
