The Argo Mill has been recorded with a 1912 construction date and in operation 1913 so prior to those years, there would be of no need to bring in Ore.  How soon after operation they realised the need to bring in ore I'm not certain.  

Those two large Brace poles that stabilized the Ore Bins seem to have been added about the same time.

Ore was exported to the Jackson Mill after the Argo Mill was opened, handling Lead and Zinc ores from the Seaton Mine.

Is there any parallel to be drawn with the C&S Shops construction of the Gilpin Tramway cabeese in November 1912 and July 1913?
