Participants of NASA's 7th annual Robotic Mining Competition take part in the awards ceremony for the event inside the Apollo/Saturn V Center at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex. The RMC is set up for college students to design and build a mining robot that can travel over a simulated Martian surface, excavate regolith and deposit as much of it as possible into a bin, all within 10 minutes. Team members may control their bots remotely from a trailer where their only line of sight is via a computer screen, or completely autonomously, with their programming skills put to the test as their robot handles the mission on its own. The competition, which takes place May 16 to 20 at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida, focuses on technologies necessary to extract consumables such as oxygen and water to support human life and provide methane fuel to spacecraft.

I would assume a fresh air vent at one time. First time the took the photo it didn't come out so this time I got on the ground holding real tight to my camera then held more in the hole with the flash up.
The mine was a challenge to my preconceptions. In Kailo they mine wolframite and casserite. Before the war the mines were operated by a state run company, the defunct infrastructure can be glimpsed under bushes and vines. The company still has a smart office in the centre of the village, but instead of mining they take a percentage of the proceeds of the artisan miners and the traders. Most of the workers are from the area, although I met some from the province of Kasai. Children were working with their parents, helping with panning for the ore, carrying and selling goods to the workers. The mine is made up of widely dispersed open pits. Most pits were 4 to 10 metres deep with the occasional 25 metre pit. Next to the pits were the temporary huts of the workers. There did not appear to be the squalor or disease that we find in gold mines. Although there were maison de tolerance as they are politely called here with the associated risks of sexual diseases, AIDS and child prostitution.
As we left the mine we crossed two four wheel drive cars carrying men from a British company interested in investing in the mine.
I don't have any info on this place but all I know I've passed it for yrs and finally got tired of that so I stopped one day - but did find out that it's on Alvarado Rd which I thought was still Stanley Rd in this area - up from Stanley Rd - So my question is was there a mining town called Alvarado and is this a combination of 2 names - Al n Colorado????
Cripple Creek, Co. It was a great day walking around inspecting with what time we had for we had a couple other places to see while we was there.

Here’s another mystery from the archives of our Force museum.
It comes from a random collection of images of landmark locations and we have no idea why they were originally taken or their location or date.
We hope an eagle-eyed visitor to our photostream may be able to tell us more.

I love the colors and how the side that faces the prevailing winds is totally aged and gray, but the other side still has some color in the wood.
The Georgetown Loop make's a stop at the Lebanon mine, this is one want's to venture in the mine - this is remints of day's past.
As you drive down through the often dark gorge of the A6 from Buxton to Bakewell, towards King Sterndale, you pass this curious building up on your right amongst the trees. Built on a steep slope with a semi-ornate exterior I have always wondered what it is. I can only assume it is linked to the mining and quarrying activities all over this area but does anyone know anything more about it?

Jerome, Arizona
Arizona Republic - March 27, 1962
Fifty-Year-Old Vehicles Displayed in Jerome
Why Were Locomotives and Ore Car Left in Mine Tunnel Since 1908?
Two electric locomotives and one ore car were put display on recently were put on Main Street. The locomotives, "motors" to the miners, and the ore car are 36-inch gauge, the same size track used by the narrow gauge railroad that traveled between Jerome Junction and Jerome beginning in 1984 The motors and cars were uncovered recently when the Big Hole Mining Co. opened a southwest drift in the course of its open-pit operation.
Many questions bounce about and come up unanswered. Why weren't the motors and cars were they left scrapped when the smelter was dismantled? Why in the underground workings? Were they cut off in a mine shaft cave-in? Were they forgotten for almost 50 years? [photographers note: this is extremely common, most cumbersome equipment was abandoned underground after mine closure. It was often assembled underground and getting it out was not worth the trouble or scrap value.]
The motors are not completely a puzzle, however. One motor was between 1905 and 1908. Using the factory motor for a sample, the second motor bought was built at the mine.
