Copper Mountain was an important copper-mining company town in the Similkameen Country of the Southern Interior of British Columbia, Canada, just south of the town of Princeton.
In 1884 copper ore was discovered by a trapper named James Jameson while out hunting deer.
These two camps merged to create the Granby Company's Copper Mountain operation.
Copper Mountain mining operation lasted over half a century.
