Ray is a ghost town in Pinal County, Arizona, United States; it is mostly known for the large copper mine there. It was named after the nearby Ray mine , which was begun by the Ray Copper Company in 1882, after the sister of one of the miners, whose name was Bullinger.
Kearny was built by the Kennecott Mining Company in 1958 as a planned community to accommodate the populations of nearby Ray, Sonora and Barcelona, which were about to be swallowed by Kennecott's expanding open-pit copper mine. While many houses in the town were newly built, some mine employees had their homes moved down the road.
In 1952, Asarco began open pit operations in the region, and in 1954 it founded a new town - named Silver Bell - four miles to the southeast of the original town site. [1] Silver Bell survived in its new form from 1952 through 1984. Mining operations at the Silver Bell Mine eventually ceased in 1984, and the town was disbanded.
