| Located in a gigantic arid sinkhole in the earth and named after the famous alchemist Nicholas Flamel, the Flamel Mines was put to work shortly after the formation of the Sorcerer's Stone in hopes of finding the necessary materials to create a second one.
While this goal was met with dismal failure, it did allow the wizarding world to discover many other sorts of stones that have been helpful to the wizarding world. Rocks used in potion making, construction, jewelry and home decor have all been dug up by enchanted pickaxes and shovels with but a few wizards and witches present to direct the floating tools. Tunnels aplenty were dug into the sides of the sinkhole, and the magic of the foremen in charge kept the caves from collapsing. The foreman did so well at this, as did other before him, a golden plaque was put in the middle of the work area just outside the sole standing building which looked like a a tall but narrow house that read, 'No Accidents since 1400.' One of the only wizarding mines in existence, it's profits and finds have made it clear that no competition was going to exist in the near future.

| He approached the mine with a purpose. He had dressed in an expensive suit and pulled his hair back into a small pony tail at the nape of his neck. He wanted to give off the air of a wealthy man who meant business. He walked up to one of the workers and asked to speak to the person in charge. They pointed him to a small building just off to the left of the mine.
He walked to the building and knocked on the door. | |

| A middle aged man, dressed similarly but less formal than his visitor, opens the door. He had bright blue eyes, ones that saw everything something was and everything it could be. The wonder in his imagination reflected in his orbs, "good day..." | |

| He smiled pleasantly. "Good day, sir. Are you the man in charge here?" | |

| "I am, and whom may I ask is asking me who I am?" The man spoke a mile a minute, as though each second needed to be perfect and he only had half a second to make it so. | |

| He produced a business card from an inside pocket of his suit jacket. "My name is Daniel Davis. I am a financial adviser and I would like to do business with you. I do business with a lot of high-end companies and I've tripled their income within a year of business. I think I can do the same for you. You're the only wizarding company that mines anymore and I know there's potential to make you a very rich man." He put on his bet salesman smile and handed over the business card. | |

| "Very rich? Oh sir I already am. I mean we're the sole supplier of many stones and I'm convinced we're this close..." he pinched his fingers together, "to striking a jackpot!"
"But still, you came all this way, what's your proposition Mr. Davis?" | |

| "I specialize in investments and I would like to take a look at your financial plans to see if there are any adjustments that can be made to further your business. I don't charge much, my prices are right here." He pulled out a piece of paper with his prices listed on it. They were humble prices, not asking too much. Definitely something this man could afford. | |

| The man looked them over, sure enough the figures were very acceptable. "Well you're a smart one to pick this mine, yes you are sir!" | |

| "Certainly!" Mr. Archer waved his wand and from a wooden cabinet of deceptively small size, piles of paper and legal documents flew over to the pair, "Take as much time as you need." | |

| He smiled at the man and pretended to leaf through some of the papers. While he was doing that he sneakily slid his wand from his jacket sleeve. He raised it and cast a mental Imperious Curse at the man. "Thank you for your cooperation, sir." | |

| The business froze in place, his eyes widening and blankening like a computer ready to receive input, "Of course sir..." | |

| "Now, I'd like it if you would be so kind as to make up some papers to make me the new owner of this business. Call lawyers if you need to. You're taking an early retirement." | |

| He nodded his mind absently, unable to lift himself from the fog Death had plunged him into. He left quickly to fulfill his new masters instructions. | |

| He smiled and made himself comfortable in the plush leather desk chair. Everything was going smoothly. | |

Mr. Archer came back in a few hours later, "All the necessary arrangements have been made..." | |
