Silver Dollar Mine

Tucked away in the Tintic Mountains lies a 1200-foot long shaft dating back to the 1890s. Once you reach the end of the road, you will see the open mine shaft of Silver Dollar Mine. Unfortunately, this mine did not produce enough ore from its limestone center so it was not in use for very long. This is just one of the many mines in the area, however, it is one of the only remaining open mines. If you venture out on a hot day, stand near the entrance to feel a nice temperature drop!
