Description

A wee nugget of native silver from a somewhat uncommon locality. 

The Trout Lake Mining Camp was actively explored and mining was carried out from 1894 until 1939 when manpower shortage associated with the Second World War curtailed mining operations. Later, exploration and development occurred over the years when silver prices were high enough to justify the expense. The last major exploration push in the Trout Lake area occurred in the 1980s.
