Silver Mine for Sale - Canada

 The Paradise Mine

Summary:

UPDATE: THIS PROPERTY HAS BEEN SOLD!

The Paradise Mine is a famous past silver producer located in the Rocky Mountains near Invermere, BC Canada. Historical production of silver, lead and zinc is valued at $US 24 million at today's metal prices. It is not known if mineral resources remain at the mine. Covering a mountain bowl, rugged ridges and forested lands, the area is a popular centre for outdoor enthusiasts. Mining rights are held as Crown Granted Mineral Claims. Ownership of these claims conveys the right to camp, prospect and, if sufficient ore is found, mine in this spectacular alpine location. The Crown Grants are an old and special type of mineral tenure that is superior to the title that is obtained today by staking. Note: This property is sometimes referred to as the "Parridice" mine. These are ideal properties for outdoors enthusiasts looking for a quiet place of their own to prospect and enjoy in a western Canadian Rocky Mountain wilderness. The terrain can be traversed on foot, mountain bike, ATV, or in winter by snowmobile and skis. Whether the objective is prospecting, exploring, or developing a small mining operation, the properties have the peripheral benefits of enjoying the flora, fauna and scenery of this stunning alpine location. As a result of surging precious metals prices over the past few years, many of the best precious metal properties have been taken up. It is not surprising that the area around these parcels has been staked. Our company, J. D. Graham & Associates Ltd., acquired this mine some years ago before the boom. This large mine holding can now therefore be offered at the reasonable price of $US 30,000.

History:
Staked in 1895, the historic Paradise silver mine is located in a spectacular mountain basin over looked by imposing peaks and rock ramparts. (The name of the principal claim is “Parridice”, which is perhaps a spelling error on the part of the staking prospector, but the mine is more commonly known as “Paradise”.) Rich in history, the mine was developed by Robert Bruce, namesake of one of the prominent mountains seen from the property.
