Description

🏭 Once one of Canada's largest copper smelters, the Granby Smelter in Grand Forks, BC helped fuel the Boundary Country copper boom. Fed by ore from the famous Phoenix mines, it employed hundreds of workers and transformed the region's economy. Today, almost nothing remains—but the story of this once-massive industrial complex lives on. Join us as we explore the history of the Granby Smelter and uncover what can still be found at the site today. 📸 Historical photos courtesy of the Boundary Museum & Archives and other credited archival collections. 💬 Have you ever visited the old Granby Smelter site?
