George Hearst arrived in Park City in July 1872 from a mining venture in Nevada.
He quickly became one of the wealthiest men in park City mining when he purchased the Ontario mine for $27,000.00 from Rector Steen and his partners. It went on to produce $50,000,000.00 and is operating to this day.
The money that the Ontario Mine produced made up the basis for the Hearst fortune which eventually included the famed Homestake Mine in South Dakota, the Cerro de Pasco Mine in Peru, the famous Hearst Castle in San Simeon, and the great Hearst newspaper chain.
Hearst later became a U.S. Senator for the state of California.
