Kimble's Hole Mine is a location in Barlow County in the Melisende Dulac Series.
Details
Located on the southwest foot of Shatter Hill in southern Barlow County. While active, it was primarily a source of copper, and some mercury. A small vein of silver with some gold and electrum was mined in 1905-1908, but no other gold or silver were ever found. The mine was exhausted by the 1914, though in the 1970s a group processed the mine tailings for trace metals that had been economically impractical to extract with previous technology.
At land swap in the 1970s resulted in the mine and its environs switching to private ownership. Currently Kimble's Hole is the site of a rock shop and thunderegg field owned by Darby Wormwood.
