The Dall zinc-lead mine worked first between 1904 and 1911 and then was reopened from 1950 to 1952. The Cook Prospect was on the south end of the deposit, and never produced significant ore. The Dall ore body was prolific. Ore was mostly in pitch and flat structures in the Ordovician carbonate rocks of the Decorah and Galena Formations.
