Historical Context
The Park City Mining and Smelting Company was incorporated in Colorado in 1922. The newly formed company was formed to purchase the assets of the Daly-West Mining and the Judge Mining & Smelting Companies.
On July 1, 1925, the Park Utah Mining Company took over the assets of Park City Mining & Smelting Company, and the company name was changed to Park Utah Consolidated Mines Company.
Subsequently the company acquired the properties and assets of the Ontario Silver Mining Company, and approximately 51 percent of the stock of the Daly Mining Company; the two latter companies owning the Weber Coal Company. Park Utah's main products were silver, lead and zinc, the ores also yielding minor quantities of gold and copper. The company had 4,181 acres of patented claims in Wasatch and Salt Lake counties. Through the Weber Coal Company, it also owned 811 acres of patented coal lands.
The Anaconda Copper Mining Company owned a minority stake in the company, eventually reaching 44% ownership. However, on Friday, May 8, 1953 the two largest mining firms in the Park City district, the Silver King Coalition Mines Company and the Park Utah Consolidated Mines Company, officially merged to establish the United Park City Mines Company.
