An Entity of Type: Ghost town, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Mineral Hill is a ghost town in Eureka County, Nevada, US. Silver, lead and copper were discovered there in June 1869. In the early 1870s, there were almost 450 residents. Initially, the Reese River process was used to process the ore, which includes roasting the ore with salt before using the Washoe process. A fifteen stamp mill was built in 1871 using the Reese River process with excellent results, though it was later found that good results would occur with just the Washoe process. Peak production of US$701,000 (equivalent to $15,856,000 in 2021) occurred in 1871. In 1872, the company that built the mill failed because the it was not able to supply sufficient ore. Lien holders operated the mill for a few years, by 1872 production was estimated at US$25,000 (equivalent to $565,000 in 202
