Kuhara built his Copper Mine in the town of Hitachi



Kuhara purchased a small mine in the town of Hitachi in 1905



Kuhara built the company up.  These are his team heads.

He built up the copper mine so that it tied with the old mine he worked at, to be 2nd most productive in Japan.   He had 6200 employees and built a town to accommodate his employees.





He built homes for his workers and families.
