Abandoned building at Leadfield. The site became a boomtown mining camp in 1925, but the whole enterprise was a stock fraud. A small low-grade lead deposit had been salted with richer ore and slickly marketed to investors. By 1927, the promoters abscounded with the money and the town was quickly abandoned. Only a few buildings remain. Titus Canyon. Death Valley National Park. Inyo Co., Calif.
Old Hundred Mine near Silverton CO. The mucker is essentially a rail-mounted bulldozer that flips a shovelful of ore over and back like a garbage truck. Fisheye perspective, sepia-tone image.

Western Potash Corp. (TSX: WPX) has conducted exploration drilling at its Milestone Potash Property immediately adjacent to potash permits help by BHP Billiton, Vale and Potash One. The three permits are located approximately 30 km southeast of Regina and to the southeast of the Mosaic Belle Plaine KL-106-R mining lease, which hosts one of the largest producing potash solution mines in the world.
The town of Butte, Montana (pronounced “byoot”) is known as the “Richest Hill on Earth” and "The Mining City". The Butte Mining District has produced gold, silver, copper, molybdenum, manganese, and other metals.
The area's bedrock consists of the Butte Quartz Monzonite (a.k.a. Butte Pluton), which is part of the Boulder Batholith. The Butte Quartz Monzonite ("BQM") formed 76.3 million years ago, during the mid-Campanian Stage in the Late Cretaceous. BQM rocks have been intruded and altered by hydrothermal veins containing valuable metallic minerals - principally sulfides. The copper mineralization has been dated to 62-66 million years ago, during the latest Maastrichtian Stage (latest Cretaceous) and Danian Stage (Early Paleocene). In the supergene enrichment zone of the area, the original sulfide mineralogy has been altered.
This is the Orphan Girl Mine, on the western side of Montana Tech campus in Butte. The site is now a museum and includes the original headframe of the Orphan Girl Mine, so named because it was so far away from other Butte mines - it was alone. The mine operated from 1875 to 1957. It was a zinc-lead-silver mine, but principally a zinc mine.
Seen here is old equipment used to straighten the mine tunnel's rails used by ore cars.

ORPHAN GIRL MINE
From the time it was located in 1875 until it was purchased by Marcus Daly and associates in 1879, ownership and fractional shares in the Orphan Girl Mine changed hands faster than the ante in a poker game. The Orphan Girl eventually operated to a depth of over 3,000 feet. While not a huge producer according to Butte standards, by 1944 hardrock miners had removed a respectable 7,626,540 ounces of silver as well as lead and zinc from her depths. Cool temperatures between 55 and 65 degrees made the Orphan Girl - affectionately nicknamed "Orphan Annie" or "the Girl" - a desirable place to work, unlike some "hot boxes" where temperatures could top 100 degrees. By the end of the 1920s, the Anaconda Company owned the Girl which operated until the 1950s. In 1965, the Girl became the site of the World Museum of Mining.

This is my latest build, the mining outpost. It took me about a year to build, mainly due to my lack of Lego bricks. It's built on three 32x32 base plates, two 8x16 base plates, and one 16x16 base plate.I'm not really sure how many pieces it has, but I'm sure it's somewhere around 4000-5000. This is my first MOC that I've actually put forth the time to publish and show off. A full video describing the build as well as a timelapse can be found at my YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/channel/UCsLl7-5zilS3CK3343jWHBw/featured

This culvert carries a stream under the spoil tip of Little Cannel Pit, Aspull. The nineteenth century brickwork is beginning to fail and the pressure of the waste above has distorted the profile in some lengths. What will happen when it inevitably collapses?
