(From http://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WMM5JV_The_HB_Mine_Salmo_BC)” It was placer gold in Sheep Creek, below the site of this mine, that attracted prospectors to the Salmo area of southern BC. Two prospectors, P.F. Horton and H.M. Billings, discovered and staked the HB in 1910 and immediately bonded it to the Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company in nearby Trail.”
Gold in bedrock units occurs upstream of the property, via numerous and well documented past producing mines, prospects and showings
