http://dbpedia.org/resource/Stibnite_Mining_District an entity of type: Thing

The Stibnite Mining District, commonly referred to simply as Stibnite, is one of the most historic mining districts in the U.S. state of Idaho. It is located in the mountains of Valley County, Idaho, approximately 10 miles (16 km) outside of Yellow Pine and 39 miles (63 km) east of McCall. The site is rich with minerals, including gold, silver, antimony (found naturally within stibnite, for which the region is named) and tungsten. Over the last hundred years, it has been home to thousands of miners, operated by several different mining companies and was critical to the U.S. war effort in the 1940s and 1950s. Mining activity stopped in the late 1990s. Since 2009, a private company has conducted exploration in the area in consideration of new mining activity. rdf:langString
