Notice the coal scrubbing tower in the background.
Also notice how everything seems to be for rent in Triadelphia.
Located on National Road just east of Triadelphia.

Up date info on this place - this isn't the Nation Mine - I've done several different word search's for this place and come up -zero - one info from an induvial thought it was bout 1952 - I'm going stop in Central City and nose around.
I really like this picture. It's not the best og qualities or focus or the likes, but I think that added wit the sepia effect gives it such an old feeling.
The Red Lodge Mining District is located near the southeastern termination of the Beartooth Mountains, southwest of the town of Red Lodge in southern Montana, USA. Active mining took place during the 1940s. Most of the old, small mines occur on the high plateaus or just below the eroded plateau edges (for example, along the northwestern margin of Rock Creek Canyon). The black rocky slope next to the snow at the center of this picture is the site of the old North Star Mine.
Mines in the Red Lodge District targeted chromium ores in the form of black-colored chromitite rocks hosted in greenish-colored serpentinite. In this area, lenses, or pods, or fault-chopped stratiform bodies of serpentinite occur among high-grade metamorphic rocks such as quartzites, gneisses, migmatites, amphibolites, etc. Chromitite is a coarsely-crystalline textured, intrusive igneous rock that is rich in the mineral chromite (FeCr2O4 - iron chromium oxide).
The rocks in the Beartooth Mountains are very old. They are principally Archean in age (2.5+ billion years old). The chromite-bearing serpentinite bodies of the Red Lodge District were originally chromite-bearing peridotites (dunites) of early Neoarchean age, or older. Granulite-grade to upper amphibolite-grade regional metamorphism at about 2.75 Ga altered the original dunites to serpentinites. The rocks of the area were also altered by greenschist-grade metamorphism between 1.6 to 1.8 billion years ago, during the late Paleoproterozoic.

This was the former Cyfarthfa mine which was not a hugely successful venture. The brown line in the middle was an embankment where a small reservoir had been made to feed the mine - a gap was visible in it where it had been broken; the water let out.

Round Mountain mining area.
An unusual site in rural Nevada -- what looks a heavy smog bank in the distance. On closer inspection you can tell that it is a cloud of dust hanging over the Round Mountain mining area. This picture was taken from 10 miles south of the mine.

"This is one of the stones the Incas used to mine with. They were brought up here from 1000's of miles below by their slaves"
