Kari and I were in Copper Harbor and Porcupine Mountains for 5 days....do you think I could get some daytime/early evening clouds, nope. Got to take what the good Lord gives you and make the best of it.
For the Macro Mondays challenge "Copper" (May 20th 2019)
A small section of a copper bracelet. The fine copper wire slides through the two twists so you can widen or close the bracelet to fit your wrist.
Texture: MixPixBox Natural sun overlays
There's a shot of the whole bracelet in the first comment field, along with the the size-guide I use for MM.
HMM to everyone, and have a great week ;o)
Posting extra early just in case tomorrow has as many problems as there were yesterday!

Site of an old Copper Mine.
Parys Mountain dominated the world's copper market during the 1780s, when the mine was the largest in Europe.
The Copper mine is very much older than that. It was mined for copper ore in the early Bronze Age, as shown by sub-surface debris nearly 4,000 years old revealed during excavations in 2002.

These are 2 small medals of landmarks: on the left you see the medal of the "Saalfelder Feengrotten". It's an old mine in the near of my home where alum was mined.
And the right one is from "Beelitz Heilstätten", an ex-sanatorium for consumptives.
At these places you can find small "machines", where you can coin these "coins" :-)
(Base: 5 Euro cent which are composed of copper-covered steel)
I wish you all a HMM!
Most of Copper Basin's traffic is either ore loads going to the smelter or acid loads coming out of it. However, period manifest traffic is brought into the railroad from the UP interchange at Magma Junction. Here, two of the CBRY's Geeps pull a hopper and a tank car through Kearny under a dramatic Arizona sky.
Last year at Shelter Cove.
Happy weekend! Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all.

Copper Canyon (Spanish: Barrancas del Cobre) is a group of six distinct canyons in the Sierra Madre Occidental in the southwestern part of the state of Chihuahua in northwestern Mexico that is 65,000 square kilometres (25,000 sq mi) in size. The canyons were formed by six rivers that drain the western side of the Sierra Tarahumara (a part of the Sierra Madre Occidental). All six rivers merge into the Rio Fuerte and empty into the Gulf of California. The walls of the canyon[1] are a copper/green color, which is the origin of the name. - Wikipedia
The Copper Basin Railway has operated the 54 mile long Magma - Winkelman former Southern Pacific branchline since 1986. That year the SP sold the line to Kennecott Copper which immediately turned around and sold it along with their 7 mile private mine haul railroad from Ray mine to Ray Jct. and their branch from Hayden Jct. up to the Hayden smelter to create the CBRY. That same year Kennecott turned around and sold their Ray mine and all Hayden operations to ASARCO, operator of the original 1912 smelter in Hayden. Independent for its first 20 yrs, the CBRY was purchased by ASARCO (virtually its sole reason for existence now) in 2006.
They are headquartered out of this small shop located at Hayden Junction located a couple miles west of the dumper down below town. At right wearing the newer image scheme is CBRY 403 an EMD GP39-2 blt. Dec. 1980 for Kennecott Copper Corporation and assigned to the Ray Mines Division as RMD3. It came to the CBRY at start up in 1996 when they took over the KCCo rail operations and has spent its whole life in AZ copper country. At left with the older copper chevron nose look is CBRY 301 an EMD GP40 blt. Sep. 1967 as Louisville and Nashville 3023.

Kleine vuurvlinder - Small or Common Copper (Lycaena phlaeas).
Alas, only the first one this year. Not so common any more.
