The Midas mine is a high-grade, underground gold and silver mine located in Elko County, Nevada, fully owned and operated by Hecla Mining Company through its subsidiary, Klondex Midas Operations Inc. The project is situated on a land package of approximately 30,000 acres and is recognised as the largest known gold-silver epithermal deposit along the Northern Nevada Rift.

Historically, the mine has produced 2.2 million ounces of gold and 27 million ounces of silver. Production in 2018 was 422 kg of gold, and in 2017 it was 51,785.91 oz of gold. A 2020-2021 Sinter discovery reported an inferred resource of 169,000 ounces of gold and 1.7 million ounces of silver.

The site is equipped with a fully permitted Merrill-Crowe processing facility, which includes a conventional mill with a capacity of 1,200 tonnes per day. The processing circuit involves crushing, grinding, gravity separation, cyanide leaching, and a Merrill-Crowe recovery circuit to produce doré bullion. The mill has also been used to process ore from other Hecla mines in the region. The infrastructure includes a crushing plant, a refinery, a cyanide destruction circuit, and two tailings impoundments. Mining methods previously employed include cut and fill, longhole stoping, and drift and fill.

Underground equipment includes Tamrock and Caterpillar loaders, Caterpillar haul trucks, and Sandvik and Atlas Copco jumbo drills.

Hecla Mining is actively engaged in significant exploration activities to de-risk a potential restart of operations. The company nearly doubled its exploration and pre-development budget for its Nevada projects to $55 million for 2026, following a $25.2 million investment in exploration and $2.5 million in pre-development in 2025. A 2025 drilling program confirmed mineralised structures in five of six targets, leading to high-grade gold discoveries at the previously untested Pogo Trend and the Sinter Vein Extension. Follow-up drilling in 2026 yielded another high-grade intercept of 0.46 oz/ton gold and 0.9 oz/ton silver over 6.1 feet. The company is evaluating the existing infrastructure for refurbishment, which would allow for a restart with a significantly lower capital intensity.
