Dickenson Mines subsidiary
Dickenson Mines subsidiary
Robin Red Lake Mines Ltd. incorporated in 1945 to acquire 12 mining claims that bordered Dickenson Mines to the east. Due to its proximity to Dickenson, Robin Red Lake Mines soon attracted the attention of the neighbouring Dickenson Mines. While Robin Red Lake Mines maintained ownership of the claims, in the 1950’s Dickenson Mines, Dome Mines and Noranda Mines financed an underground exploration program through the Dickenson Mines shaft. By the 1960’s Robin Red Lake Mines was operating as a subsidiary of Dickenson Mines.
Robin Red Lake Mines went into production in 1970, processing ore at the Dickenson Mines mill. In 1978, Robin Red Lake Mines was officially absorbed into Dickenson Mines. Like all of the Dickenson Mines subsidiaries, Robin Red Lake Mines production totals have now been contributed to the overall production number for Dickenson Mines. However, between 1971 and 1972 Robin Red Lake Mines produced over 53,000 oz of gold.
