Wits Basin owns the Bates-Hunter Gold Mine in Central City, Colorado. Discovery of gold at the Bates-Hunter Mine in 1859 kicked off the Colorado gold rush and established Denver as a major American city. All mines in the area went dormant in 1936. This mining district has historically produced more than 4 million ounces of gold. Twenty-five percent (25%) of all the gold mined came from the area immediately surrounding the Bates-Hunter mine. Wits Basin's property controls the 15 principal veins underlying the mine. The veins historically produced about 750,000 ounces mined to an average depth of 600 feet. When the mine was closed, the mineshaft reached 800 feet. Drilling in the 1990's confirmed grades of 0.48 ounces over 10-foot widths with veins ranging from 2 to 20 feet wide. Workings down to the 800-foot level confirm that the gold veins continue to depth. Similarly mineralized properties in the region have been mined to 2,250 feet in depth.

Craig Yarde founded Yarde Metals Inc. in 1976 when he established a small office in the basement of his home in Bristol, CT and began brokering metal over the phone with $1000 from the sale of his motorcycle! The phones seldom rang and were usually answered by his wife or his three year old daughter. Metal orders were picked up and delivered by family members in his station wagon. Craig partnered with his brother, Bruce Yarde, the following year and moved into a small rented factory on South Street in Bristol, CT. In 1986, Yarde Metals moved to an 85,000 square foot facility to accommodate the growing product line, services and sales. The company quickly outgrew this space and moved to a completely renovated state of the art 500,000 square foot facility in Southington, CT in June of 2003. Our corporate headquarters is more like a museum than a distribution warehouse and its unique style supports Craig's out-of-the-box business philosophy that has facilitated his success. Yarde Metals now has nine service centers in addition to its corporate headquarters. They are located in: Albany, New York; Happauge, New York; Syracuse, New York; Pelham, New Hampshire; High Point, North Carolina; Streetsboro, Ohio; Limerick, Pennsylvania; Mendon, Massachusetts;.
