Copper Mask Mine
Originally operated as the Copper Mask, later re-claimed as the Raven. It was ran on and off from 1919 to 1934 by the Copper Mask Mining Co. In the 1960s it shipped a bit as the Raven Mining co. Around 2000' of workings were driven and a small mill was built. The main ore mineral was Tetrahedrite. The surface mineralization was high grade but spotty, and the vein pinched out fairly quickly.
