On your way along Victoria Highway you will see some mining facilities, more or less the only feature around you here. Kununurra is close now, so keep calm, you nearly made it.

California Historical Landmark No 341
Visitors participate in educational activities during NASA's 6th Annual Robotic Mining Competition at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida. More than 40 student teams from colleges and universities around the U.S. will use their mining robots to dig in a supersized sandbox filled with regolith simulant and participate in other competition requirements. The competition is a NASA Human Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate project designed to engage and retain students in science, technology, engineering and mathematics fields by expanding opportunities for student research and design.

Exact Mining Services Kenworth T404SAR loaded with a Kenworth K104 after it broke down 30km South of Port Augusta. The T404SAR came up from Adelaide loaded with another K104 and dropped that off and loaded the broken down K104 on the back off the float.
To study the links between the increased metabolism of the economy and environmental damage, EJOLT looks at mining conflicts (precious metals & bulk materials) and waste disposal conflicts (ship breaking, e-waste exports and waste incineration). Local communities occupying āpriceless sitesā oppose mining in ecologically sensitive areas (such as Intag, Ecuador) or technological and other corporate practices. We shall elaborate on risk assessment and undertake work to publicize violations of the Basel Treaty on the export of toxic waste (e.g. European ships dismantled in Alang and Sosiya, India). We will conduct a legal analysis of liability regimes in national, international and European laws. Sharing of such landmark cases on mining and ship-breaking conflicts worldwide will help us to elaborate online training materials about debates on health risks and resource destruction, and strategies of legal redress and public consultation in ways that take local activist knowledge into account.

Great tracts of rock, extracted from the bowels of the earth over a century ago, litter the landscape around Yarnbury. It is a permanent reminder of the land's industrial past and gives a strange 'moonscape' appearance to some of the locality. The mines entered their most prosperous phase between 1821 and 1861, when they produced 20 273 tons of lead, averaging 965 tons a year and employing about 170 people.
Big Pit: National Coal Museum is an industrial heritage museum in Blaenavon, Torfaen, South Wales. A working coal mine from 1860 to 1980, it was opened to visitors in 1980. Photo taken with Canon 550D in December 2012.

A shot of one of the paths through the heathland restoration that is Beacon Hill reserve. The topsoil turns grey with weathering, but underneath it is orange, and this shot shows just how many mining bee mounds there are in a small area. I have never seen a site like. it. I found it astonishing that they thrive in such a frequently trampled area as a footpath that is well used by dog walkers.
I was back a few days later in heavy rain and there was no trace of any of this and the path looked more like a river. I hope the bees survived.
A mural protest on the impact that mining and the future expansion of Coal Seam Gas mining has on the Gloucester and Upper Hunter region of NSW.
The former ore sampler in Murray, Utah. Located "down rail' from the former Murray ASARCO smelter site, with connections to the then Union Pacific and Rio Grande mainlines. Undergoing some sort of demolition effort at the time of the photo, it would stall shortly afterwards leaving the building still standing as a hollowed out skeleton.
