The surviving CMS Store (after housing a Bay, Field's, Stedman's etc.) now holds a sort of mall with a used-book store and varied shops. The mine finally closed in 1998 (completed 2001); North Star Mountain, luckily within city limits, was already a popular alpine resort and still anchors a vibrant outdior and back-to-earth culture.
We have all done really well out of Kimberly.Thank you for this geology.I worked in the Cominco zinc side from 1980-1990.I happened on this job as an out of work teacher during the recession of the 1980s. Was offered rock steady tradesmen's wages as a totally green smelterman off the street making something called Sullivan 5-9 or 99.999 pure zinc and I took it no questions asked but was always curious why so good so long.... Oh I should add the smelter( renamed TECK) is still very successful in Trail B.C.I believe they now use Red Dog ore from Alaska, plus much custom.
I hate when people say "my dad" but my dad did work the 3900 foot crushing chamber at the Sullivan. He was known as On Order Jimmy after he went to the tool crib.

My Grand Father, my Father and myself all worked in the Sullivan Mine. Cheers !!
I recognize the name Hi from the son of On Order Jimmy.
Thank you for all the Great History. Amazing indeed. Salute.
Your welcome. But the real thanks goes to Bill Barlee. He was the real treasure in BC.
Thank you Sir. I love this show and I'm a Scot who has never even visited Canada... yet.
Well, we must have a glass of Dalwhinnie scotch when you visit us.
@@lesliedycke9795 I'll bring a Balvenie Caribbean Cask if I ever make it. Best whisky I've ever tasted. ;)
I met bill barlee back in Castlegar bc and one of his speeches and the college. he had a truck load of artifacts and lots of silver bars.
