History of the Drumlummon Mine
1876: Drumlummon deposit discovered by Thomas Cruse.
1883 - 1910: Montana Co. (Rothschilds) puts mine into production with two shafts and 25 miles of drifts down to 1,600 foot level. Loses claim dispute in 1901 and floods mine.
1910: U.S. Supreme Court rules against the Rothschilds. Production ceases after producing 1.1 million ounces of gold and 10 million ounces of silver
1910 - 1929: St Louis Company achieves minor production.
1941 - 1951: Montana Rainbow Co. restarts production in 1946. Mill burns down.
2007: RX consolidates all land claims, initiates surface drilling, completes NI-43-101 report. Begins underground rehabilitation of old workings on 400 foot level.
2008: Charly Vein system discovered
2010: RX reopens the mine
