Dome Mine

Dome Mine is situated in the City of Timmins, Ontario, Canada; and was developed during the Porcupine Gold Rush. It is now known as part of GoldCorp - Porcupine Gold Mines. The original Dome Mine (Tisdale Township) was discovered by Jack Wilson of the Harry Preston crew in 1909, was still operating as of April 2016. It's life is slowly coming to an end this year as the ore is dwindling and quickly becoming exhausted.

At one time a community of approximately 60 houses owned by Dome Mines and leased to miners with families existed. This was the community of Dome.
