The Tully mine worked Young's ore body of the Riverton Iron-Formation during 1910 through 1926, operated by Corrigan McKinney Steel Co. 1.2 million tons of iron ore were shipped during this period. In 1949 the Hanna Iron Ore Co. combined the mine with the Bengal Mine to form the Bengal-Tully Mine, and in 1953, the complex was renamed Cannon Mine.
The Tully mine used three shafts of 700 ft depth, and four levels, with connection to the neigboring Baker Mine.
The property description is S1/2-SE Sec. 36 T43N-R35W, which is 80 acres between N46º4'22", N46º4'35", W88º37'0", and W88º37'37".
