Cliffside flumes were developed in California, using trestles and brackets (called bents) at regular intervals to support the flume box.[2] The flume connected with a six mile long ditch, both designed to provide water for miners in the San Juan MountainsConstruction of the Hanging Flume took three years, beginning in 1887. Approximately 24 workers participated in the build, suspended from ropes onto the cliff face. A derrick may also have been used.[2] The construction used 1.8 million board feet of lumber and ended up with a total cost over $100,000. of Colorado.
Participants in NASA's 7th annual Robotic Mining Competition take part in opening ceremonies for the event. 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 — or Mars dirt — 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.

The church on the right is the only building still standing today of this group of three buildings. the church on the left was made from corrugated iron. The photographer has added two lines of identical description, as this photo was intended to be turned into a picture postcard, these were very popular at this time.
The institute was opened in May 1901 by Major AE Burdon JP, Director of the Seaton Delaval Coal Company. The key presented to Major Burdon at the opening can be seen below.

The Mining Drone can operate on itself. It's programmed by the Rock Raiders. This drone can mine in small caves where no vehicle can reach.
It's equipped with a small chainsaw, a small claw and a radar dish. It has also a detachable crate and carries mining tools for the Rock Raiders.

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?

Lot's of digging for the ore in this area - At its peak in the late 1800’s, some 4000 people lived in Nevadaville. In the 1860s and 1870s it was known as Nevada City. Being sitauted next to Central City made this a bustling place to be. The town died due to gold and silver running out around 1900.

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.

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.
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.
