The Bengal Mine was opened in 1913 by the Verona Mining Co. 5.5 million tons of iron ore were shipped, much of it manganiferous. Two shafts and five levels were developed. In 1949 the Hanna Iron Ore Co. combined the mine with the Tully Mine to form the Bengal-Tully Mine, and in 1953, the complex was renamed Cannon Mine.
