Frisco Charcoal Kilns
Frisco Charcoal Kilns, Historic charcoal production facility in Frisco, Utah, US.
The stone kilns feature large dome-shaped ovens designed to convert wood into charcoal through a specialized carbonization process for silver ore smelting.
Constructed in 1876, these industrial structures supported the mining operations of the Tintic Mining District by producing fuel for silver ore processing.
The kilns exemplify the industrial methods of the American West, demonstrating the technical knowledge required for mineral extraction in the 19th century.
Visitors can reach the kilns via accessible trails and learn about their function through informational panels that detail the charcoal production process.
Each kiln possessed the capacity to process 50 cords of wood, generating 7,500 pounds of charcoal in a single production cycle.
