Another slide restoration of a former welsh slate mining area, which I believe was open to the public at the time (mid-1980s) & in better Covid free times, may still be.

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.
Antimony Mining
The mining of antimony commenced in Ringwood after its discovery in 1869. Antimony was a sought-after mineral in its time. It was used for making pewter, in the manufacture of vulcanized rubber, as a pigment in paint, for the manufacture of medicines, and in the printing industry. Mining took place during the 1870s and into the 1880s although was generally discontinued after 1892 (due to the recession of the 1890s).

The Woodhorn Mining Museum in Northumberland documents the mining industry - now disappeared - in Northeast England.
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.
The Hearst Memorial Mining Building at the University of California, Berkeley, is home to the university's Materials Science and Engineering Department. The Beaux-Arts-style Classical Revival building is listed in the National Register of Historic Places and is designated as part of California Historical Landmark #946. It was designed by John Galen Howard, with the assistance of the UC Berkeley-educated architect Julia Morgan and the Dean of the College of Mines at that time, Samuel B. Christy. It was the first building on that campus designed by Howard. Construction began in 1902 as part of the Phoebe Hearst campus development plan. The building was dedicated to the memory of her husband George Hearst, who had been a successful miner.
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.
Copper mining infrastructure, part of Phelps Dodge Corporation copper mining operation in Bisbee, AZ. Mining operations stopped in 1974. I believe these towers were used for some type of post-processing of the recovered slurry.
