Reclamation was the last act of survival of Copper Range at its mill at Freda. During the months of May through November of 1966-67, Copper Range reclaimed "stamp sands" from the lake shores of Freda, Redridge and in this photo at Cole's Creek. Copper was extracted from the sands and after the sands gave out, Copper Range closed its mill at Freda on November 4, 1967. Scanned: April 30, 2009 |

Contributing to the prosperity of Ontonagon county and especially the Rockland area was the Victoria Mining Co. of a few years back. Now but a series of foundations, abandoned buildings and vacant and windowless log houses, the old Victoria property is still the object of visitation by tourists and yesterday's resident who continue to come back to revision the scenes and happenings of a former day.
