Robin Red Lake Mines incorporated in 1945 to acquire 12 mining claims that bordered Dickenson Mines to the east.

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.
