| Taracol cyanide plant extension |
|
Cornell University Library
Collection: Willard Dickerman Straight and Early U.S.-Korea Diplomatic Relations, Cornell University Library
Title: Taracol cyanide plant extension
Date: ca. 1908
Place: Asia: North Korea; Unsan
Type: Photographs
Description: Americans Leigh S.J. Hunt and J. Sloat Fasset formed Oriental Consolidated Mining Company and bought Korean Mining and Development Company in May 18, 1898. The Oriental Consolidated Mining Company owned 10 gold pits in Unsan, Pyongan-pukto. Taracol was one of the sites that constituted Unsan Gold Mine. Unsan previously was a small village with only a few households, but it evolved into a very different place through the mining business association with the American entrepreneurs. Between 1903 and 1938 the annual profit from the gold mining reached more than $12,000,000, but the backward Korean Royal government sold the Korean Mining and Development Company for only $100, 000. Had the Korean government not sold the mining owning right for a lump-sum payment, it could have achieved a price as high as $3,000,000. The mining by the Americans continued until they were forced to relinquish operations to the Japanese in 1939. Cyanide plants were constructed in four places: Tabowie, Taracole, Kuk San dong, and Candle stick. Source: Yi, Pae-yong. Ku Hanmal kwangsan ikwon kwa yolgang, 1984. Chapter 2.
Inscription/Marks: Inscribed in pencil on verso: 'Taracol cyanide plant extension.'

Description: Lumber for the Taracol mill. Thousands of feet of timber which Korean lumbermen have whip-sawed out by hand. Americans Leigh S.J. Hunt and J. Sloat Fasset formed Oriental Consolidated Mining Company and bought Korean Mining and Development Company in May 18, 1898. The Oriental Consolidated Mining Company owned 10 gold pits in Unsan, Pyongan-pukto. Mail bong is one of the pits in Unsan gold mine. Unsan was a small village with a few households, but it became a differently cultured place from the mining business by Americans. Between 1903 and 1938 the annual profit from the gold mining reached more than $12,000,000, but the backward Korean Royal government sold the Korean Mining and Development Company for only $100, 000. If the Korean government didn't sell the mining ownership for a lump-sum payment, it could get $3,000,000. The mining by the Americans was continued until they were forced to relinquish it by the Japanese ruler in 1939. Source: Yi, Pae-yong. Ku Hanmal kwangsan ikwon kwa yolgang, 1984. Chapter 2.
