BOOK - Silver Centre: The Story of an Ontario Mining Camp.
By Peter Fancy
Silver Centre was one of Canada's celebrated mining camps. It discovered millions of dollars in silver ore (when silver's price averaged 500 an ounce) and probably has as much mineral Wealth waiting today in it unexamined Keewatin ground for some future economic development. But most importantly, in terms of Ontario's social history, this Silver Centre story represents the way of life for many of the people living in northern Ontario during the early years of this century.
The story follows in detail the mining prospectors of 1907 their silver discoveries; the early mines-their success and failures; the depressing World War I years; then rebirth with the mother lode discovery of 1920 and its climactic decade of phenomenal silver treasure; finally, the inevitable exhaustion of known deposits. Fafling metal prices discourage continued searches. Mines close-sudden abandonment. This particular drama of prospectors and developers struggling with the Precambrian rocks is a constant, unifying theme.
Silver Centre is the story of a mining community and its people, of fellowship and stubborn pleasure.
