Chuquicamata copper mine near Calama, Chile, is the world’s largest open pit copper mine. Such was its contribution to the Chilean economy that president Salvador Allende nicknamed the raw copper “Chile’s bread”.
The original Chuquicamata town, which housed all mine workers and their families from early in the mine’s development, was abandoned in 2007. Health and safety concerns over the high levels of dust from the mine and gasses from the smelting plant caused the Codelco mining company to relocate all families. Today the entire town stands abandoned, with boarded up buildings, fading signs, and wind blowing through the empty streets. As the town was only relatively recently abandoned, and because it is still on mining company property, it has suffered very little decay and vandalism. Although it is not possible to enter any of the buildings, even wandering the streets offers an evocative insight into the harsh realities of life here in the middle of the desert.

Bakestonedale Moor above Pott Shrigley has seen an extensive coal mining industry over the past 2-300 years. The last coal and fireclay extraction took place in the mid 1960's before the Peak Park planners put a stop to it. The nineteenth century workings left a number of deep shafts which remained open until the 1970's when they were capped by the then National Coal Board leaving distinctive concrete obelisks on the shaft top.

By 1864 Hite's Cove was a small community of 100 people, a hotel, two saloons, and a Chinatown, as well as a post office. It also had a 10-stamp, then a 20-stamp mill.
This area is filled with old mining equipment, perhaps dating to the stamp mills or even beforehand. This looks like it may have been a Knight Wheel, perhaps turning the stamps.

Mining started during the mid 1600s in this area and went on up to the beginning of the 1900s.
One can certainly imagine the hardships of mining here in such a remote area. Apparently, they mined from March up to October.

After the WPPI show, I headed into the Mojave Desert hills. I was looking for the Evening Star mine and a place to stay for the night.
Got here just as the sun was setting.
