50 YEARS AGO –MARCH, 1937– ELDORADO OUTPUT

Eldorado shareholders, who will probably meet before the end of March, are due for some pleasant surprises, The Northern Miner can say after interviewing officials who have returned from the property at Great Bear Lake. The company has orders in excess of $1,250,000 for radium alone in 1937.

Profits for 1936 will approximately treble those of 1935. The Fort Hope plant is being trebled in capacity. The concentrator at Great Bear Lake, which is now equipped to crush 125 tons daily and which has recovering equipment for 60 tons daily, is to be stepped up to 100 tons recovery; and in the following year, 1938, the mill is to be trebled.
