"Asbestos, Quebec, was given its name in 1884 when a post office was established beside what was then the small Jeffrey-Webb mine, simply because that’s what was there..." - @historiamagoria.bsky.social

Kennecott, Alaska. This mine operated from the turn of the century as a high grade copper mine until 1938. Today, Wrangell Saint Elias National Park still maintains these historic buildings. #Alaska #Nationalparks #hiking #mininghistory #photography #mountains #geology #geoscience #nature

Step back to 1907 at Death Valley’s Lost Burro Mine. Legend says Bert Shively found gold when he threw a rock at his runaway burro! Tucked in the Cottonwood Mountains, it’s remarkably preserved; the mill and cabin look like they were abandoned just yesterday.

A museum exhibit features a mannequin of a miner in beige protective clothing positioned as if drilling into a gray rock wall; to the right is an informational panel about explosives used in mining operations. A bottom-right inset shows a visitor wearing a hat and sunglasses.
