Robena Mine
A lead-zinc-silver mine near the townsite of Bossburg. The geology is mineralization in two parallel zones in brecciated Permian limestone interbedded with wacke. It produced ore prior to 1890, in 1922-1923, 1938, 1941, and 1947-1954. From this 13,389 tons contained around 939,000 lbs (ca. 426 t) of Pb, 771,000 lbs (ca. 350 t) of Zn, and 69,000 oz (ca. 2.1 t) of Ag.
