The mill tour at Bannack State Park offers a unique window into Montana’s gold mining past. Constructed in 1918, the Hendricks/Apex Mill is one of only two remaining intact mills in the state open to visitors. It played a key role in gold extraction, using cyanide processing—a common technique during the gold rush. Today, the mill is a well-preserved landmark of Montana’s industrial era, maintained as part of the park’s dedication to preserving its historic legacy.
