The town of Lucky Boy was born as a result of the discovery of lead-silver ore in the vicinity in 1906. The camp experienced a boom in 1908 when exploration opened a number of rich veins in the district. Lucky Boy's population peaked in the 1910 at over 800, then declined rapidly as the high grade was mined out. The mines produced ore on a small scale through the 1950s.
