How did mining shape Montana as a state? Join Living History Manager Peter Mousseau and learn how mining for metals such as gold, silver, and copper drove expansion into the territory of Montana, as well as how it shaped the political landscape through men, like the “Copper Kings”. Exploring this important interaction of historical figures and natural land resources helps us better understand Montana through the lens of its past.
