NSM 674 heads back to the mine in Babbitt for another load of ore while passing under the rock cliff near the iconic curves at Milepost 5 near Silver Bay. I got to be honest, I was really considering hiking and relaxing at that clearing above the rock ledge. What a great view.

Ruines de la chapelle Sainte-Barbe, Berrien (29)
Bonne fête de Sainte-Barbe ! Dans ma région minière, beaucoup de travailleurs, même s'ils ne sont pas mineurs ou sapeurs-pompiers fêtent cette sainte le 4 novembre. (ou la veille :-) comme je l'ai fait joyeusement hier avec mes ex-collaboratrices
😄)

Happy St. Barbara’s Day! In my mining region, many workers, even if they are not miners or firefighters, celebrate this saint on November 4. (or the day before :-) as I happily did yesterday with my ex-collaborators 😄)

The German Mining Museum, founded in Bochum in 1930, is the largest mining museum in the world and, on the other hand, is a research institute for georesources and mining and mining archives. The museum has a demonstration mine with a rope simulator. The symbol of the museum, which can be seen from afar, the 71 m high winding tower can be climbed.
Pawpaws are a must have addition to my wife’s diet, having grown up with them on the breakfast menu in Kenya. We used to have lots of Pawpaw trees in the are around our house there
The papaya, papaw, or pawpaw, a very large berry is the fruit of the plant or small tree called the Carica papaya. It was first domesticated in Mesoamerica, within modern-day southern Mexico and Central America.
David P. Morgan once described the Reserve Mining Railroad as a perfect railroad; one unencumbered by the ICC, passenger trains or branch lines. They focused solely on one commodity. and with a great physical plant they ran the hell out of it. There were years when the RMCo Railroad moved more tonnage than the entire Soo Line! Some remnants litter this shot, with Reserve era signals and ore cars mixed with newer locomotives. Out of sight but up and to the right exists a tailings pond, the result of "The United States of America v. Reserve Mining Company", a landmark case which marked the beginning of the EPA wielding significantly more power over corporations polluting the environment. I think spot is gated off now, the camera in the distance was new when I shot this and no doubt a contributing factor. Even out of its Reserve days, the North Shore Mining Company was still as cool as it always was.
Butterflies cannot live on Nectar alone. Minerals are also required by butterflies and to get them they do what is called Puddling. Puddling is when butterflies gather on muddy areas of soil to suck up water that contains devolved minerals. They radically fly over the wet soil; it seems radical to me, but they might have a method, then land in their chosen spot and suck up the mineral rich water.
Clipstone Colliery was a coal mine situated near the village of the same name on the edge of an area of Nottinghamshire known as “The Dukeries” because of the number of stately homes in the area. The colliery was owned by the Bolsover Colliery Company and passed to the National Coal Board in 1947. The headstocks and powerhouse are grade II listed buildings.

View of the Little Theresa Mine from the interpretive loop trail. which was operated from 1895 to as late as 1961 by several companies, including the Theresa Gold Mining Company, the Vindicator Consolidated, the United Gold Mines Company, and the Golden Cycle Mining Company. The entire surface plant was destroyed by fire in 1934, and the metal frame shown here rebuilt in 1938.
