Zincton, British Columbia : ウィキペディア英語版 | Zincton, British Columbia Zincton is a ghost town located in the West Kootenay region of British Columbia. The town was located near Sandon, East of Slocan Lake.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://apps.gov.bc.ca/pub/bcgnws/names/25942.html )〕 The town of Zincton was built to support the mining efforts in the area. Zincton was founded around 1892. The ore predominantly found in the area was zinc. Zinc was an unwanted metal at that time. Much of the ore was shipped to the Pilot Bay smelter. Zincton was destroyed by a forest fire in 1910. In 1927 the Victoria Syndicate had acquired claims in the area and rebuilt the town. The Kaslo and Slocan Railway line passed through Zincton. Zincton was the largest producer of Zinc in the Slocan area. The ore body was eventually depleted, and today Zincton is deserted. ==References==
