found this neat photo in the BC archives, a 125 tonne boulder of galena. The finders were paid $2000 dollars for the boulder in 1889, and when smelted it turned out to be 80% silver with a melt value of $20,000. The men who found the boulder believed more were nearby, but no other silver ore was recovered.
