How much ore did Frobisher bring back on his second voyage?

  • 100 tons

  • 150 tons

  • 250 tons

  • 200 tons

Answer

On his second voyage, Frobisher brought back 200 tons of ore. This was a significant amount, as it was believed at the time that the ore contained gold. However, further testing revealed that the ore was actually worthless. This led to a loss of interest in Frobisher's expeditions, and he was unable to secure funding for further voyages.
