EDGE PSYCHOTIC/ MYTHS LEGENDS AND LIES During the 1870s, at the height of the American Indian Wars; a company of Apache horsemen were ambushed by US cavalry. After losing 50 men; the Apache retreated up the mountain later named Apache Leap. Accepting defeat; the remaining 75 Apache leapt to their death rather than being captured by the US army.
Superior was originally called Queen, then Hastings, and under the latter name was platted in 1900.
Queen had a population of around 100 circa 1880. There was a general store, 2 hotels, numerous saloons, and a post office. The Queen post office closed Sept. 15, 1881.
The Superior townsite was laid out in 1902, and named after the Lake Superior and Arizona Copper Company (LS&A). The Superior post office opened on December 29, 1902.The first claims here were staked in 1875, and the Silver Queen Mining Company was organized in 1880. With depth, rich copper ore was discovered, but early efforts to mine copper failed. Boyce Thompson bought the old Silver Queen mine in 1910, and by 1912, the Magma Copper Company was in production. A narrow gauge railroad connecting to the Phoenix and Eastern Railroad was built in 1915, and later converted to standard gauge. A smelter was built in 1924. A new concentrator replaced the original one in 1946.
After 71 years of production, the Magma mine closed in August 1982 due to high operating costs and declining copper prices. Operations resumed in September 1990, but the mine closed again on June 28, 1996. During its 86-year life (1911–1996). the Magma mine produced approximately 27.6 million short tons of ore averaging about 4.9% copper, recovering 1,299,718 short tons of copper, 36,550 short tons of zinc, approximately 686,000 ounces of gold and 34.3 million ounces of silver.
