Murray Mine is a defunct nickel and copper mine in Greater Sudbury, Ontario. It was the site of the original ore discovery that led to the launch of mining operations in the Sudbury Basin area.
The Murray Mine was discovered in August 1883 by Thomas Flanagan, a blacksmith on the CPR construction gang. The property at Lot 11, Concession V, McKim Township, was patented to James Loghrin, Henry Abbott and Thomas and William Murray in October 1884. They in turn sold it to Henry Hussey Vivian
