Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

British North American Mining Company : The British North American Mining Company was formed in 1846 for the purpose of exploring and opening a mining property near Prince's Bay on the northern shore of Lake Superior, and was chartered by an act of the Canadian Parliament in 1847. The mines were worked until 1850, when a shortage of capital made it necessary to abandon operations on the location. Several attempts were made to reopen the mines or to dispose of the property, but for various reasons none of these schemes was carried to completion.
