Deep dives
The history of the Sterling Hill Mine in New Jersey
The Sterling Hill Mine in New Jersey has a rich history dating back to the 1600s, with early Dutch settlers mining for copper and iron deposits. It was later acquired by William Alexander, who mined iron and believed there were rich mineral deposits in the ground. The Ogden family took over operations, mining zinc for brass during the War of 1812. The New Jersey Zinc Company improved working conditions for miners and produced millions of tons of ore, including zinc used in bullet and artillery shell production during World War II.
