Notes
In 1852, after the Michigan copper district had been opened for to settle
ment, Edwin went there on a road survey and acted as surveyor and enginee
r for several copper-mining companies. For a time he was engaged as copyi
st of maps in the United States Land Office at Sault Ste. Marie, in whic
h employment he familiarized himself with the surface features of the Kew
eenaw Peninsula, then recently opened to copper-mining development. Resum
ing his work as surveyor in this copper region, he found samples of coppe
r-bearing breccia and began a search for the mother lode, which was rewar
ded in the years 1858 and 1859. His discoveries were on the site of the l
ater-developed Calumet and Hecla copper mine.
Edwin Hulbert had carried forward his search for this mother lode with t
he greatest secrecy; but in order to realize on his discovery it was nece
ssary for him to secure the land containing the lode. His first purchas
e was from the United States government, to which he later added a trac
t obtained from the St. Mary's Mineral Land Company, recipient of a larg
e federal land grant in compensation for the construction of the canal a
t Sault Ste. Marie. he then organized the Hulbert Mining Company, to wor
k the property, but the Civil War retarded its development. In 1864 and 1
866 openings were made on the site of the lode and rich copper deposits w
ere uncovered. To assist in financing these mining ventures at Calumet, H
ulbert had recourse to Boston capitalist for loans secured by his stock h
oldings in his Michigan mines. He was temporarily employed as superintend
ent of these mines but eventually lost both his employment there and hi
s stock interest in the company, leading to years of controversy and liti
gation with Quincy A. Shaw of Boston, and others. Apparently in considera
tion of the receipt of a stipulated regular income, Hulbert withdrew hi
s suit against Shaw and the Calumet and Hecla Company, left the country a
nd resided in Rome, Italy until his death. He is remembered mainly for hi
s discovery of the Calumet conglomerate, copper-bearing deposits in the C
alumet copper district of Michigan. Although these achievements were fo
r a time called into question, there are probably today no mining men o
f standing in the Lake Superior mining region who doubt that the discover
y was made largely as Hulbert claimed to have effected it. He recorded hi
s labors and discoveries in the Michigan copper district in Calumet-Congl
omerate (1893), followed in 1899 by Calumet-Conglomerate Discovery. He wa
s a member of the Michigan legislature 1875-76, and a member of the Ameri
can Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers, 1874-86.
