The BLM works with partners to collect data about bats, create bat-friendly closures for abandoned mines and encourage the public to respect wildlife. Through a partnership with Bat Conservation International, the BLM installs bat-friendly closures on abandoned mines that are home to bats or could provide a safe home in the future. Not only do these closures promote public safety, they allow bats to safely travel in and out of the mines. This album contains examples of closures and photos of our Bat Week activities.

And old "Beam" single-cylinder steam engine used in Colorado mining. Used for pumping and lifting, these engines were not efficient and were replaced by other types. But gold (and silver, ...) were powerful incentives so the mining folks did not wait for efficiency - they wanted things "yesterday", if not sooner.
This cold weather, the bees are just laying on the Rhody leaves hoping the sun will come out and warm them. Easier to photograph them this way but I would settle for chasing them in the sunshine.
This is the industrial method of panning for gold. When it was in operation it floated on the river and just ate itself along, scooping up buckets of dirt, rock and gold. More dirt and rock than gold. I'm sure there are all kinds of environmental laws that would ban such a thing now. It has been somewhat restored and is now an historical site.
Roslyn, WA - Roslyn was a coal mining town for about 30 yrs in the early 20th century. Roslyn pays tribute to the miners that made the town in this mural. They take pride in their heritage in other monuments around the town center. Many immigrants came to Roslyn during the mining days and made the town what it was... and is.

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.

The old Massey backhoe in the foreground only just escaped being pushed into a pit as Henry Walker left site.
I taught myself how to use this old girl after knock off each day. We got a few more years use out of it.
There was about a metre of slop in the slew function so you had to be careful digging next to buildings.

This is a little Lego Ideas concept I had rolling around for awhile now. It is a lunar mining facility run by a group of six robots. I've always had a deep love for the older space themes Lego made during the late 80's mid 90's. Things like Blacktron, or Unitron, or insectoids, they all were quite inspiring and spectacular to me!
This set proper, took little over a week to build, with a few hiccups here and there. The base itself took the longest to build, and was the one that underwent the most redesigns. It was either too crowded to fit the details I wanted inside or just way too big and looked a bit off.
If you like this build and think it would make for a great Lego set, then you can help support it on Lego Ideas! ideas.lego.com/projects/149128

According to the structure and application, vibrating feeder can be divided into four types: GZG type, ZSW type and GZT type. This series of vibrating feeder is widely used in coal industry for quantitatively sending the raw coal and coal powder from the storage bin to the material receiving equipment, and it has such features as fast start, stable stoppage, low maintenance rate, convenient installation and simple structure, so that it is the ideal equipment for feeding materials in the coal industry.
