Historical Context
The Metropolitan-Cobalt Mining Company was incorporated in Canada under the Ontario Companies Act in 1910.
The company was based in Haileybury - which is located on the northwestern shore of Lake Timiskaming, 150 km north of North Bay.
In 1889, Haileybury was established by Charles C. Farr, who had come to the area six years earlier as an employee of Hudson’s Bay Company. Farr named the community after his English alma mater, Haileybury College. Because of its readily accessible port facilities on Lake Timiskaming and its proximity to the silver mines of Cobalt and to the agricultural region known as Little Clay Belt, Haileybury developed as a residential, commercial and service centre for the whole area.
