SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION

This document encompasses the materials collected by Michigan Technological

University (MTU) Social Sciences and the Michigan Tech Research Institute (MTRI)

staff in support of Phase 1, Task 3 of the Department of Environmental Quality project to

study and sample “Abandoned Mining Wastes of the Torch Lake Non-Superfund Site,

Contract No. Y14110.”

Task 3 is devoted to the historical and archival work on C&H Torch Lake

industrial facilities, and to the production of Geographic Information System (GIS) data

and associated maps, which identify building locations. The December 2014 Statement

of Work (SOW, Appendix A) specifies the following 8 tasks that were to be

accomplished by the Social Sciences Department in order to support DEQ, Weston, and

MTU in identification of on-water and on-land sampling sites for the Phase 1 area from

the North End of Torch Lake (Lake Linden) southward to Hubbell Beach:

1. Identify major contaminants and waste streams of concern from industrial buildings and likely locations: PCBs (completed through Sea Grant Michigan); chemicals in reclamation processes; sludge from reclamation; slag from smelting; coal-related products such as fly-ash; leaching reagents from stamp mills and reclamation (ammonia, xanthates); others that may be identified in archives.

2. Investigate MTU and KNHP C&H archives on building function, production processes, chemical processes, and waste streams by building location.

3. Produce Building Narratives for 18 buildings (in order of location from north to south).1 Building narratives will be prioritized according to potential to produce significant contaminated wastes to optimize information necessary for soil and sediment sampling in late spring-summer season. Narratives of buildings deemed insignificant for contaminated waste production will be brief, but included in order to document their elimination.

a. Narratives will detail opening/closing dates; production activities within individual facilities; major updates in processes; repurposing of buildings for different production activities; information on incoming chemical, metal, or other waste and possible exit sites from buildings. Narratives will draw upon archival sources, maps, blueprints, and interviews.

1 Building names are drawn from official names utilized by C&H and Sanborn Co. maps. Data for some buildings are largely collected through study of C&H electrical system and PCB sources.

b. 18 buildings: Houghton County Electric Light & Power (Sub-Station #9); C&H Flotation Plant; C&H Leaching Plant; C&H Regrinding Plant No. 2; C&H Regrinding Plant #1; C&H Regrinding Plant #2; Lake Linden Substation; Calumet Stamp Mill; Hecla Stamp Mill; Still House; C&H Power Plant; C&H Boiler House; Coal Dock Sub-Station; C&H Mineral House; C&H Smelting and Refining; C&H Electric Shop (in smelter); C&H Smelter Power Plant; C&H Electrolytic Plant; C&H Acid Treating Plant.

4. Collect and scan available Sanborn maps (through 1928) and C&H blueprint maps for 18 buildings listed above.

5. Conduct interviews with knowledgeable individuals about individual plant operations.2

6. Provide a spreadsheet of sources consulted, relevance for which waste material or chemical – e.g. C&H box and files title/# in MTU or KNHP archives.

7. Provide a bibliography of relevant sources that detail or describe significant processing methods, chemical usages, and waste collection strategies for C&H Mining Co. during period of Torch Lake operations (1880-1970).

8. Identify, if possible, the footprint for buildings identified with DEQ staff as critical for soil sampling. This to be done in collaborating with team members involved with GIS mapping for the project.

These tasks have been completed and materials are available in this document. Several graduate students in the Industrial Archaeology Graduate Program provided research assistance: Emma Schwaiger (MS student) has provided the bulk of archival and interview data. Recently, John Baeten (Ph.D. student) and Brendan Pelto (MS student) have surveyed professional journals and newspapers for accounts of C&H facilities, processes, and other news. In addition, MTRI has contributed to these tasks by geospatially referencing data sources for use in GIS systems and by providing maps of these data.

2 Sea Grant Michigan and KNHP have funded interviews during Fall 2013 and Spring 2014 semesters. If any additional individuals are identified during the DEQ funded research, they will be interviewed.

This document is organized in the following sections:

Section 2 includes the narratives of 22 (and additional 4 sites have been added to the original 18) buildings and sites investigated by the research team. Also included are a set of Google Maps with buildings identified by location, name. Detailed chronologies for each building are provided in the Building Narratives and on the Google Maps.

Section 3 includes the GIS data and associated maps produced by MTRI. These data include GIS-ready formats of Sanborn sketches, relevant blueprints, and descriptive maps of each dataset for use in presentations and reports. These products are intended to assist Weston and the MDEQ in their investigation and presentation of findings.

Section 4 provides various background and useful resource documents. Included are articles from professional mining engineering journals that document C&H Torch Lake developments in the 1910s through 1930s. Summaries of three interviews appear here, with most pertinent information highlighted at the end of the summary. In addition we have provided a set of resources and research notes that will be helpful in reading the historical record of C&H activity along Torch Lake.

Section 2: BUILDING AND SITE NARRATIVES & CHRONOLOGIES

Phase 1: North End of Torch Lake to Hubbell Beach

2.1 - Torch Lake Phase 1 Building Narratives

This section assembles narratives with information about C&H buildings in the Lake Linden and Hubbell areas (Phase 1). Also included are a series of Google Maps with the approximate building sites identified, along with brief chronologies of major changes in processes and building design. Twenty-two building and other sites are documented utilizing sources from the C&H Collection at MTU Archives, articles from mining engineering journals, and interviews. The Building Narrative Template (next page) provides categories for information. In several cases, narrative categories are incomplete because archival sources did not yield any useful information.

The maps, blueprints, journal articles, and interview summaries referenced in the individual narratives are provided in Section 4 of this report. A bibliography of these and other useful sources is included in Section 4.

1. Houghton County Electric Light & Power (Sub-Station #9)

Significant: YesAlternative (common) names for building:

Dates:1. Built: between 1890 and 1902 2. Modified (external structure): 3. Ceased operation: between 1947 and 1969 4. Structure removed: Still exists – 58340 Gregory St, Lake Linden, MI 49945,

Schoolcraft Twp. Current use: storage facility. 5. Last time seen on map/aerial photo:

Maps available: Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, Michigan Tech Archives: 1917, 1928, 1935.

Building narrative:

The Houghton County Electric Light & Power building was built between 1890 and 1902 when the land was owned by the Peninsula Electric Light & Power Co. which then became the Houghton County Electric Light Co. It was then sold to the Upper Peninsula Power Co. in 1947 and again to the Village of Lake Linden in 1969 when the building was probably no longer used as a sub-station. It is currently owned by Betsy Olson West of Saint Petersburg, FL.

Supporting documents: See research report on Substation #9 – Houghton County Courthouse documentation.

Building Timeline: Houghton County Electric Light & Power (Sub-Station #9): 1890 – Property bought by Peninsula Electric Light & Power Co. 1902 – Name change to Houghton County Electric Light Co. Built sometime after 1890. 1917 - Sanborn 1928 - Sanborn 1935 – Sanborn 1947 – Sold to UPPCO 1969 – Turned over to the Village of Lake Linden 1990 – Sold to Betsy Olson West

Potential Waste/Pollution Concerns: After extensive research, it is unclear whether this substation continued operation after the 1930s—the era when PCBs were introduced into transformers.

2. C&H Flotation Plant

Significant: Yes, not for PCBsAlternative (common) names for building:

Dates:1. Built: 1918 2. Modified (external structure): 1919 3. Ceased operation: 1953 4. Structure removed: 5. Last time seen on map/aerial photo:

Maps available: Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, Michigan Tech Archives: 1928.

Building narrative:

The Flotation Plant to treat smiles from the Regrinding Plants were in commission beginning in 1918 and by 1919 they realized they needed a larger building to complete the flotation. It closes in 1953 when the Lake Linden reclamation plant has exhausted all useable tailings.

Flotation is a process which uses xanthates and pine oil to get particular mineral particles, in this case copper, to adhere and float to the top of large vats in the form of foam and froth, which is then skimmed off and separated from the other materials and collected.

Supporting documents: See: C. H. Benedict, “Flotation Practice at the Calumet & Hecla” (1931). Also, CH Benedict, “Six-Cent Copper from Calumet & Hecla Tailings” (1924), and CH Benedict, Lake Superior Milling Practice, Chapter 8, “Flotation.”

Building Timeline: C&H Flotation Plant: 1916 - Oil flotation experiments underway 1917 - Flotation experiments successful 1918 - Flotation plant to treat slimes from Regrinding Plant should be in commission in summer 1919 - 2/3 of slimes from Regrinding Plant are treated by flotation, building need extending 1928 - Sanborn 1931 - Not Operational 1935 - Back into Operation 1953 - Tailings exhausted, closed

Page 10: Building Narratives, Maps, and Documentation Torch Lake ...

Potential Waste/Pollution Concerns: Pine oils and xanthates (toxic to aquatic biota) were commonly used to float copper from the material produced by the stamp mills. With copper removed from the “frothing,” it is unclear how the remaining material was treated. The archival and published record is silent on this aspect. The waste sludges would likely have other heavy metals in them.

3. C&H Leaching Plant

Significant: Yes, not for PCBsAlternative (common) names for building:

Dates:1. Built: 1914-1915 2. Modified (external structure): 3. Ceased operation: 1968 4. Structure removed: 5. Last time seen on map/aerial photo:

Maps available:

Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, Michigan Tech Archives: 1917, 1928. Army Corps of Engineers, Michigan Tech Archives: 1962, 1970.

Building narrative:

The Leaching Plant construction was started in 1914 and completed in 1915. The actual ammonia leaching began the following summer in 1916. In 1942 the following information is given from the C&H Annual Reports: “The leaching process in use on copper-bearing sands is adaptable to the recovery of copper from scrap of various kinds, including the treatment of scrap from copper and brass coated steel. C&H has successfully treated at Lake Linden leaching plant, yielding the original steel as scrap for steel mills and copper recovered as oxide which is refined at the smelter. They go through 2,500 tons of scrap metals per month.”

In 1944 the leaching plant was remodeled to adapt it to the production of copper oxide from secondary copper products, but these were interior machinery and process changes to help provide the most copper possible to help with the war effort. In 1953 when the rest of the reclamation plant is closed down, the leaching plant remains open and processing. The end of the leaching plant is believed to be tied to the closing of the company in 1968.

Leaching is a process where an ammonia solution is mixed with copper bearing sands and put into large holding tanks where the ammonia dissolves the copper. This ammonia and copper solution is then separated from the rest of the material and heated. The ammonia is evaporated and recycled, whereas the copper is precipitated into copper oxide, which was then sent to the smelter to be processed into pure copper.

(1919), Chapter 9 on “Leaching:” and his“Milling at the Calumet & Hecla Consolidated Copper Company” (1931).

Building Timeline: C&H Leaching Plant: 1914 - Ground broke for new Leaching Plant 1915 - Building complete, ammonia 1916 - Processing began in July 1917 - Sanborn 1928 - Sanborn 1931 - Not Operational 1935 - Back into Operation 1942 - Leaching process in use on scrap from copper and brass coated steel 1953 - Rest of Reclamation Plant closed, Leaching still in operation

Potential Waste/Pollution Concerns: Ammonia was the primary chemical utilized in leaching copper from material produced by stamp mills and in later years, tailings and scrap metals (recovery from secondary products). Benedict claims in Lake Superior Milling, that the ammonia was continuously recycled in the leaching process. A common waste material from leaching (and flotation) was a finer stamps and material that was re-deposited into Torch Lake in the vicinity of older stamp sand piles. The leaching process was regularly applied to reclaimed stamp sands from earlier milling eras (1860s to 1910s). These finer sands likely had a greater capacity to drift further into Torch Lake, settling throughout the Lake sediments as a fine material—thus spreading copper and other metal content further throughout Torch Lake. It is unclear how the waste material from scrap metals subjected to leaching was disposed.

4. C&H Regrinding Plant No. 2

Significant: NoAlternative (common) names for building:

Dates:1. Built: 1912 2. Modified (external structure): 3. Ceased operation: 1953 4. Structure removed: 5. Last time seen on map/aerial photo:

Maps available: Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, Michigan Tech Archives: 1917, 1928.

Building narrative:

The #2 Regrinding Plant was completed in 1912 and in 1913 all of the buildings related to the recrushing plant were completed. 1914 saw the tube mills in the regrinding plant in operation. The plant had a remodel in 1918 and the building continues in operation until the reclamation plant closes in 1953.

The regrinding process was simply old copper tailings being re-milled by more efficient stamps and mills, where a percentage of the missed copper could be collected.

Supporting documents: See: Benedict, “Milling” (1931); and his Lake Superior Milling Practice (1955), Chapter 6, “Fine Grinding.”

Building Timeline: C&H Regrinding Plant No. 2: 1912 - Recrushing building complete (123 x 432 ft) 1914 - Tube mills in plant started 1915 - Went into operation in June on small scale, September at full scale 1917 - Sanborn 1928 - Sanborn 1931 - Not Operational 1935 - Back into Operation 1953 - Tailings exhausted, closed

Potential Waste/Pollution Concerns: C&H Regrinding Plants #1 and #2 were built, along with the shore plant and dredge in Lake Linden, to regrind the reclaimed stamp sands from Torch Lake. In providing a finer-grained sand for the leaching and flotation plants, these facilities contributed to the more widespread of metal-laden sands into Torch Lake after the reclamation process.

Maps available: Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, Michigan Tech Archives: 1917, 1928.

Building narrative:

The foundations for the #1 Regrinding Plant were started in 1907 and the entire building was completed in 1909. In 1913 all of the buildings related to the recrushing plant were completed. The plant had a remodel in 1918 and the building continues in operation until the reclamation plant closes in 1953.

The regrinding process was simply old copper tailings being re-milled by more efficient stamps and mills, where a percentage of the missed copper could be collected.

MS005-9654, 1931. MS005-11461, 1948. MS005-12307, 1960.

Building narrative:

This building was a sub-station located just east of the Regrinding Plant #2. This was where the power was processed and sent to be used in the regrinding mill.

Supporting documents: The Mining Congress Journal, October 1931, page 546 – East of Regrinding Plant #2, 2 transformers

Potential Waste/Pollution Concerns: After 1930, PCBs were placed in transformers to replace mineral oil. C&H purchased their transformers for all electrical facilities from General Electric and Westinghouse. Both companies regularly utilized PCBs (produced by Monsanto) in all their transformers by the late 1930s. Therefore, when C&H dismantled their electric substations, it is likely that PCB oils were emptied from the transformers (because of the weight of the liquid) before scrapping the metal containers. To date there is no record of PCB disposal in C&H records or among individuals interviewed.

Building narrative:

A 50 ft sand wheel was added in 1891 and new boilers were installed and automatic sprinklers were added in 1892. In 1893 the records show that the building included: 11 Leavitt heads with steam cylinders, 14 & 21.5 x 24 inch stroke, Washers, Huntington & Haeberle grinding mills and slime tables, and a Westinghouse driving engine 200HP. In 1904 5 heads were remodeled and in 1905 the entire interior of the mill was remodeled and updated. In 1919 tanks for settling slimes were added to prepare for the reprocessing of tailings. 1944 saw the Calumet mill stop production and it did not start again.

Potential Waste/Pollution Concerns: The Calumet Mill began disposing its course-grained stamp sand waste material in Torch Lake in the 1870s. These sands contained copper and other heavy metals. When the Calumet Mill began to process material from the Kearsarge vein, it contained arsenic which was deposited in some of the sands. The Ahmeek, Allouez, and Centennial mines all operated on the Kearsarge vein. It stopped deposition of sands in the 1940s.

Building narrative:

In 1891 they were in the process of erecting a 50 ft sand wheel which was completed in 1892, along with the installation of new boilers for the mill. 1892 also saw automatic sprinklers installed and a new addition to the mill being started which was completed in 1893. A list shows that in 1893 the Hecla Mill had the following equipment: 11 Leavitt heads, equipped similar to Calumet Mill and preparing to place solid anvils under all stamps.

In 1900 the Hecla Mill was preparing for another addition, which was completed in 1902. This addition was powered with electricity and the equipment was contracted through General Electric. In 1919 the mill was equipped with tanks for settling slimes in preparation for the reprocessing of tailings.

The Hecla Mill closed in 1921 and was dismantled in 1924, with remaining equipment and structures dismantled in 1940.

Building narrative:

In 1902 a new steel electric power house was erected and it went into commission in 1903. 1905 saw the addition of 2 large engines, which shows it having 9,000 HP engines in 1906. The Power Plant could generate 2,000 KW in 1907. In 1917 the building was fireproofed and in 1929 the obsolete electrical equipment was scrapped. A new 2000 KW low pressure unit was installed which was operational by 1920.

In 1947 C&H planned new generating facilities, including two new 1000 HP diesel-electric locomotives and a diesel-electric locomotive crane, which was completed in 1949. The power plant closed with the company in 1968 and the building was raised in 2013.

Potential Waste/Pollution Concerns: After 1930, PCBs were placed in transformers to replace mineral oil. C&H purchased their transformers for all electrical facilities from General Electric and Westinghouse. Both companies regularly utilized PCBs (produced by Monsanto) in all their transformers by the late 1930s. Therefore, when C&H dismantled their electric substations, it is likely that PCB oils were emptied from the transformers (because of the weight of the liquid) before scrapping the metal containers. To date there is no record of PCB disposal in C&H records or among individuals interviewed.

The C&H Power Plant was an extensive operation, powering C&H facilities as far south as Tamarack Reclamation Plant, as far west as the C&H and Tamarack Water Works, and from Calumet north to Phoenix and Cliff mines. In 1943, C&H extended its power lines to Quincy Reclamation Plant to service the dredge, shore plant, and reclamation works. The coal supplied for power was delivered at the C&H coal dock in Hubbell, pulverized at the Coal Pulverization Plant (after 1917), and utilized as the most efficient means to deliver power. A major by product of coal use (and pulverization) is fly ash that is dispersed through the local environment through smokestacks and accumulates in furnaces. Interviewee #1 indicated that the remaining furnace fly ash was probably deposited into Torch Lake from the smelter yard. PAHs (polyaromatic hydrocarbons) are one hazardous waste produced by coal burning and fly ash production.

Building narrative:

The boiler house was built in 1896 to help power the C&H stamp mills located in Lake Linden. The boilers at the Water Works were moved to this new facility in 1897 and 4 more boilers were added in 1900. This facility quickly became obsolete and a new one was built in 1907 and completed in 1908 where it remained, situated next to the Power House. In 1920 the boiler house had massive renovations. A concrete foundation was added and the side walls were coated with concrete to prevent fire. In 1929 an addition of steel and glass was added to the main furnace building. This building closed with the company in 1968.

“The process of crushing, drying and pulverizing fuel should be accomplished in a separate building used for no other purposes. This building should preferably be detached, but where this is not practicable it should be separated by a blank masonry or concrete wall containing no openings other than those necessary for the passing of pipes and shafting. The building should be constructed of incombustible materials and specially designed to secure minimum lodgement of dust and to relieve the force of an explosion through its roof and walls without danger to its frame. The frame should preferably be of steel with light non-bearing walls (except fire walls) constructed of materials such as stucco on metal lath, tile, metal or other similar incombustible material and with roof of monitor or gable type and all secured in such a manner as to give way readily under pressure of explosion. The monitors with louvered or glass sides or sky-lights should have a horizontal area not less than one-tenth of the horizontal area of the roof.

In order that the venting of explosion may be more readily facilitated, a portion of the exterior walls equal to not less than 10% of the combined area of the enclosing walls should be of glass. All glazing should be by means of thin glass not exceeding 1/8” in thickness.

Coal pulverizing mills and coal dryers should be equipped with suction fans or other approved means for removing dust. The collection of dust to take place as near the point of origin as possible and suction fans to discharge outside of building or into metal cyclone collectors. Dust collecting devices should be constructed of incombustible material and contain no cloth partitions, tubes or bags. All elevators including boots, legs and heads, or screw conveyors should be constructed of incombustible materials. Conveyors for supplying coal pulverizing mills should be provided with approved magnetic separators between source of supply and mill feed bins. Elevator heads, cyclone collectors or storage bins for handling or storing pulverized coal should be provided with approved vents exhausting outside of building. Machinery and other parts comprising the crushing, drying, pulverizing and conveying system should be effectively electrically grounded. All stationary lights should be protected with dust proof globes and wire guards. Smoking and the use of open lights or torches should be prohibited. All motors, switches and other electrical devises should conform to the standards of the National Electrical Code.”

Building narrative:

The Smelting and Refining Plant was constructed in 1887 and in 1893 it covered about 30 acres, was connected to the mills by short railway, 4 stone furnace buildings – 80 x 130 ft, and had a water source from an artesian well. In 1924 the smelter was the central plant that pulverized the coal used as fuel, about 12 tons of coal per hour. In 1930 the smelter main furnace building was extended 45 ft north. In 1944 the smelter had a process for removing arsenic from soda slag by leaching the later with soda solution. Two major furnaces were rebuilt in 1957 and another two in 1965, but the smelter closed in 1968 with the company.

Supporting documents: See: Lovell and Kenny, “Present Smelting Practice” Mining Congress Journal. 1931.

From C&H Collection (MTU Archives): These selections illustrate the issues of waste associated with the smelting facilities (slag, fly ash)

From C&H News and Views, August 1946: Processing “Copper Mud”After a period of experimentation, C&H introduces a new material to its secondarycopper department (reclaiming copper from waste materials), with the treatment of “Copper Mud.”

From research notes: The latest addition to this family of processes is one which makes possible the treatment of “Copper Mud”, a waste product resulting from the drawing of copper wire. The material as received is a pasty mixture of fine copper, oil, grease, floor sweepings, etc., having an average copper content of the order of 25%, and a combination of animal, vegetable and mineral oils of approximately 40%. As received, the material is not suitable for direct furnacing due to the presence of the high percentage of fat and water; but after several months of experimentation, a procedure was worked out which not only makes possible the recovery of the copper in a highly concentrated useful form, but fat by-products as well. The equipment required to process the material involves a large lead-lined digester, filters, grease accumulation tanks, copper recovery tank, and a 10,000-gallon storage tank for grease.

Installation of the various units was started during June and production on a limited basis began the middle of August. It is expected that the unit will be operating on a continuous basis by September first.

The copper recovered as a metallic concentrate contains approximately 75% copper and in this form is suitable for direct furnacing with other concentrates. The fat is reclaimed as a semi-clear liquid and will be accumulated in 8,000 to 10,000-gallon batches (40,000 to 60,000 lbs.) for shipment in tank cars.

The fat or grease is classified as an inedible oil, and will be shipped into the Chicago district for processing into oleic and stearic acids and for the manufacture of industrial soaps.

It is anticipated that the process will add several hundred thousand pounds of copper per month to the smelter intake, with the recovery of from 20,000 to 30,000 gallons by-product fat which can be readily marketed at an attractive price.” (p. 1)

Potential Waste/Pollution Concerns: The major waste by-products from the smelter were slag and fly ash. C&H typically loaded slag (probably granulated slag) onto special rail cars whose sides dropped open for dumping of the slag. It is likely that the slag deposits adjacent to the smelter on the south (and north of Hubbell Beach) was the primary deposit site for smelter slags. Granulated slags (as opposed to hardened lump or rock-like slag) are more vulnerable to sloughing of heavy metals that remain in the smelter waste. Fly ash deposited in the furnaces was likely disposed of in Torch Lake. However, in the 1950s, C&H conducted studies of the copper content of fly ash to determine if it would be cost-effective to process the ash and retrieve the copper. It is unclear whether C&H ever developed a copper recovery program from fly ash.

The smelter yard is another location of possible hazardous waste contamination. In 1945, C&H launched its “Secondary Metal Department”—an indication that reclamation of copper from scrap metal waste had become an important part of the business. C&H News and Views has photographs of burning some of the secondary waste material before treating it in the smelter: co-axial telephone cable, stripping insulation from armored Navy cable, burning insulation and grease from motor parts, etc. (July, 1945 issue). In

34

Page 35: Building Narratives, Maps, and Documentation Torch Lake ...

addition, interviewees mention that the smelter yard was a site for burning copper wire to remove the insulation before smelting.

Dismantling of the Smelter furnaces would have left brick that had been contaminated with heavy metals. It is likely this material was deposited in dump locations or possibly in Torch Lake, or along the slag piles south of the Smelter.

The Electrolytic Plant foundation was completed in 1912 and was 155 x 270 ft. The facility closed in 1922 and did not re-open.

The Electrolytic Plant purified copper through dissolving the unprocessed copper on electrodes and electroplating it. This only lasted a few years in the Keweenaw as the process did not work well on native copper.

Supporting documents: See entries in H. Stevenʻs Mine Handbook for C&H between 1912 and 1922 for a short history of the electrolytic plant which proved to be unprofitable for Lake Superior copper (i.e. it did not have an adequate silver content to the ore, making the process successful).

MTRI also shared another set of GIS-ready data with MDEQ and the Weston Consulting Company. The file, titled “C_and_H_Historic_Buildings.shp,” is a GIS shapefile data set and was derived from existing data. This shapefile was used to in each of the above figures as the “Historic Building Locations” layer, which are displayed as red polygons. This dataset contains an associated description table, known as an attribute table, which can be used in most GIS software packages. The table contains important information about each of these buildings, such as the date the buildings were erected, dates of new activity or products, and date of demolition or production stoppage. Figure 9 is an example of these data.

Figure 9: Here is an example of the attributed information that accompanies the shapefile that MTRI delivered to MDEQ and Weston. Some of the information includes the year of construction, demolition, and other important dates such as changes in production or machinery.

In addition to this GIS-ready file, MTRI provided a Microsoft Excel file, which contains all of the information that can be found in the attribute table mentioned previously. This Excel file is for use outside of GIS software. The Excel file is titled “Phase1_Building_Details_and_Dates_LakeLinden_Hubbell.xlsx”

All of these products described above can be found on the MTRI , File Transfer Protocol (FTP) website, which can be found by cutting and pasting the follow address into any web-browser:

ftp://ftp.mtri.org/pub/Torch Lake GIS/Revised Maps and BluePrints/

These data will also be shared directly with MDEQ on a Compact Disc.

To summarize section 3, MTRI has produced a series of GIS-ready files which include Sanborn and blueprint GeoTiffs; as well as additional GIS-ready file which shows the outlines of each of the 18 buildings along with a timeline of important dates. To supplement these GIS data, we are sharing maps with all the GIS data overlaid upon them. These GIS data and maps are available on the accompanying Compact Disc and are in a folder titled “GIS.” The GIS data will be in a sub-folder titled “Data” and the maps will be in a separate folder titled “Maps.” As previously described we also included a Microsoft Excel document, which contains all the important dates of the 18 buildings for use outside of GIS workstations. This Excel file is also available on the Compact Disc

In addition to these GIS data and maps, we are also including all of the original Sanborn and blueprints for use outside of GIS workstations. These original files are on the Compact Disc and can be found separate folders titled “Sanborn” and “Blueprints” respectively.

Section 4: SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION

Phase 1: North End of Torch Lake to Hubbell Beach

4.1 – Annotated Bibliography

Annotated Bibliography of Sources on Lake Superior Copper Milling/Refining and Calumet & Hecla Facilities

The sources listed below were systematically consulted for information on C&H Torch Lake facilities and the milling and metallurgical processes for refining copper. They provide critical information for anyone continuing to research the industrial history of the Torch Lake waterfront. Because MTU Archives has an extensive map collection, a separate annotated bibliography is provided.

(1.) Published sources

Benedict, C. Harry. Red Metal: The Calumet and Hecla Story. 1952. The history of C&H, written by the engineer who helped developed some of the major milling and refining processes along Torch Lake.

Benedict C. Harry. Lake Superior Milling Practice: A Technical History of a Century of Copper Milling. 1955.

A valuable technical treatise of the major milling and refining processes (including flotation and leaching) utilized in the Lake Superior copper mines. Provides a good historical account and detailed description of the development of innovative methods in which mining engineer Benedict participated.

Stevens, Horace J. Copper Handbook. 1900-1913. Continued as the Mines Handbook to 1931.

Provides a good reference to the major changes in processes and facilities by company (C&H, Quincy, Copper Range, and earlier companies absorbed by these three firms. Draws heavily upon company annual reports and news accounts.

(2.) Professional journals for mining engineers (found in MTU Van Pelt Library, general collection)

Engineering and Mining Journal (1918-1940)

78

Page 79: Building Narratives, Maps, and Documentation Torch Lake ...

Engineers from C&H regularly wrote articles on developments in copper milling, smelting, and reclamation processes. To date articles were collected on all C&H facilities from 1918 to 1940—the most active period in milling, leaching, flotation, and refining innovation at C&H. Most of the processes developed in the 1910s and 1920s remained the same (with some modifications). These articles provide useful information for Phase 1 Buildings during this period:

“Ammonia Leaching of Calumet Tailings” (C.H. Benedict) July 14, 1917 “Developments in Lake Superior Milling” (C.H. Benedict) July 5, 1919 “The Use of Pulverized Coal” (H.R. Collins) August 17, 1918 “Six-Cent Copper from Calumet & Hecla Tailings” (C.H. Benedict) February

16, 1924

Mining Congress Journal. October 1931. Series on C&H Facilities This issue provides a detailed overview of major facilities and processes at C&H in 1931.

“Transportation System and Coal Dock” (F.H. Haller)“Electric Power Generation” (Rober McIntosh and A.L. Burgan) “Milling” (C.H. Benedict)“Flotation Practice” (Robert M. Haskell)“Historical Development of Refining and Smelting Native Copper” (H.D.

Conant) “Smelting and Refining Native Copper” (HD Conant)“Present Smelting” (E.R. Lovell and H.C. Kenny)

(3.) MTU Archives –Collections and Resources

Calumet and Hecla Mining Companies Collection. MS-022 This is an extensive collection of company records that includes correspondence, production records, financial accounts, maps, and blueprints. The finding aid (which is searchable by key word) can be located online at: http://www.mtu.edu/library/archives/collections/documents/MS002 Hecla and Calumet.pdf

C&H News and Views A newsletter for employees printed by C&H between 1942 and 1949. It contains updates on new production and processing activities during this era, including substantial information on updates to facilities, new practices, and on topics not regularly found in other materials—e.g. water supply, transportation, etc. Is a good chronological source for the era after which the Stevenʻs Mine Handbook, ceases to detail company activity. Call number in MTU Archives: F574.C2 C33 ARCH.

Calumet and Hecla Annual Reports Provides an annual view of operations, new developments, financial information. Often recorded in more descriptive form in Stevenʻs Copper Handbook and Mine

79

Page 80: Building Narratives, Maps, and Documentation Torch Lake ...

Handbook—yet worth utilizing to put developments in context of overall company financial picture and developments in non-Torch Lake facilities.

Daily Mining Gazette (DMG) There is no index for the DMG and the paper must be read on microfilm in the MTU Archives. It is best utilized for specific time periods where known events would be recorded and described. For this project, the DMG is being read from 1968-1975 for information on the closing, dismantling, and disposal of C&H properties along Torch Lake. The C&H Collection is silent on this time period, with no records on what happened to individual facilities.

The Native Copper Times A weekly newspaper published in Lake Linden, on microfilm in the MTU Archives. This paper is utilized for information on the 1968-1975 period, investigating the closing, dismantling, and disposal of buildings along Torch Lake.

The Historical Development of

SMELTING and REFINING

Native CAtpper

~TH the beginning of copper mining in the Lake Superior region o( Michigan about the year 1847, a new feature was introduced into the metal­lurgy of copper. Before that time co·p­ By D. D. Conant• per had been obtained f rom sulphide or oxide ores by a smelting process that in­volved s.everal operation!!: for &eparat.ing the metal from the sulphur, iron and other impurities with which it was com­bine<! in the natural state. The product of the Lake Superior mines is native coppe1', and no complicated processes are required to prepare the metal for use in industry; it is necessar y only to melt the concentrate& and masaive cop­per , remove the s lag formed by the rock in which the copper is found, and then, by a simple refining operation, U> prepare the metal for pouring into the various shapt:os requi1·ed by manufacturen. Both melting and refining were formerly per­formed in the same furnace, but as prac­ ' tic(' has imJ)roved, the two functions t have been separated and are now gen­erally performed in different fur naces.

Whf'n the Lake Superior copper mines belan operation, the concentrates were shipped either to the R.evere Copper Wor ks near Bos ton, or to the topper smelter at Baltimore where the sulphide ore! of the Atlantic states had been smelted for m~ny years ; but in the yea r 1860, owing to dissatisfaction with the quality of copper produced at those workJ, and in order to reduce expense, fou r of the largest copper rolling and brass manufacturing companies in Con­necticut joined in constructing a copper smelung works at Det roit, Mich., of for melting the mineral, as the concen­wh ich the present Calumet and Hecla trates f rom the stamp mills at the mines ~ne/:e:ie~~d !~l~:r~!~~~h~:~J;af:·r h~~~ smelter is a di rect outgi'Owth. are called, and the massive copper which fining.
