Tohoqua Mine
The Tohoqua Mine was located near Leadville.
In February, 1907, there was discussion about the richness of the area.[1]
In 1913, the John Harnan, president of the Tohoqua Mining Company stated that he had been working the property since 1906. There were 2200 feet of tunnels, with the main shaft being down 600 feet. The concentrate was to be taken to Trego. [2]
Lincoln (1923) states: "The Tohoqua Mine was equipped with a 50-ton concentrator in 1911, which was remodeled and had a concentrator plant added when the Leadville Ms. Co. took possession in 1920." ...
