Welcome to Cordova Mines! Today, the area is a small hamlet in the Havelock-Belmont-Methuen Township. But in the late 1800's and early 1900's, Cordova Mines was a busy mining town! As the story goes, Cordova Mines began in the 1860s when Marcus Powell - a local prospector - discovered a cave where gold appeared to be gleaming from the walls! A gold boom followed, with over 20,000 ounces of gold were produced from the Cordova Gold Mine in over 50 years of mining ventures.
