Historical Context
In 1913, the Giroux, Ely Mines, Chainman, Ely Central & Butte and Ely Mine companies merged with the White Pine Copper Company financed by Mark L. Requa to become the Consolidated Copper Company. All of the merged companies had properties in Nevada's White Pine County.
The Consolidated Copper Company, led by Requa, had a direct hand in bringing the Nevada Northern Railroad a distance of 150 miles (from Cobre to Ely) to transport the copper ore. On September 30, 1906, Mark Requa drove the copper spike made from copper ore from the Ruth Mine into the ground to celebrate the arrival of the train.
Over the years, the Consolidated Copper Company developed the Richards, Alpha, Emma and Morris underground mines. In 1922 the company was reorganized in the Consolidated Copper Mines Corporation.
The Kennecott Copper Corporation bought out the Consolidated Copper Mines properties in White Pine County, which included the town of Kimberly, in January 1958.
