Yerrington " is fast becoming the world biggest copper camp"
Yerrington " is fast becoming the world biggest copper camp"Yep, only taken a little over one hundred years!
The Anaconda Mine at Weed Heights first opened in 1918 as the Empire-Nevada Mine.
Weed was one of the mine's superintendents. Seems we have always had a problem with naming stuff. Yerington was the builder of the C&CRR, but didn't come through "Greenfields" even after they named the town after him.
