Mining was from 23 different drifts using room and pillar methods, slushers, jack-leg drills, and electric trammers. A heavy media separator (HMS) plant and flotation mill were installed. Initial concentrates were sold to smelters until 1971.
Relation to Mining. Antimony rarely occurs in its native metallic form in nature. It easily combines with other elements, usually including sulfur, to form over 100 different minerals. Of these minerals, only stibnite (Sb2S3) is mined commercially as a source for metallic antimony. Antimony is found in trace amounts in silver, copper and lead ...
