Britannia Mines Concentrator
[edit]
The building housing the Britannia Mines Concentrator
- ... that Britannia Mines in British Columbia had the greatest copper ore concentrate output in the British Empire from 1925 to 1930? Britannia Mines Concentrator National Historic Site of Canada: "...it made Britannia the largest producer of copper ore concentrate in the British Empire between 1925 and 1930
- ALT1:... that a fire and temporarily depressed copper prices were used as impetus to upgrade the Britannia Mines Concentrator in British Columbia? Britannia Mines and Concentrator: "The No. 2 concentrator was destroyed by fire in the winter of 1921. This was not too much of a setback as there was a temporary slump in the price of copper and the company took the opportunity to improve the concentrating facility."

Article is new enough (Feb 8), long enough (+10K), is NPOV, solid citations inline, Copyvio looks good [1]. Hook is interesting and supported in ref. I like the first hook better, it's more general and just seems to have more "gravitas." Otherwise, good to go. Ultracobalt (talk) 05:23, 8 February 2017 (UTC)
