Silver was discovered shortly downstream in 1886, prompting a short-lived silver rush but the ore was found to be low quality.
The mountains to the east of Slocan Lake were the focus of the silver rush known as "the Silvery Slocan", during which steamboats and railways penetrated the Kootenay Range east of the lake to Sandon, the "capital" of the rush and the destination of three railways, two from the direction of Slocan Lake via Carpenter Creek, the other via Retallack Pass from Kaslo on Kootenay Lake.
In Fallout: New Vegas, the logo of the "Silver Rush," formerly a gambling hall, shows a similarity to the logo of the "Golden Nugget."
