Yes, there was a mine, I beleive it was Cartier Mining Company. They are isolated, but I think they bought some AC4400s to replace some of the old Alcos, so they could've been sold to a leasor. It could've also been a slow time at the mine so they brought a few locos down to earn revanue in leasor service. I know Alaska Railroad did that on the North Shore Mining Co. in MN.
