Onita Mine

 

 

One and a half miles north of Jackson. One of the important early day mines, the Oneida was producing ore averaging as high as 40 dollars per ton in th 1860's. It was operated intermittently from that date until the late 1890's when much extensive development work was done and a new mill erected. Operations continued until 1914, since which date has been idle. Total production of the Oneida was in excess of $2,500,000.
