RE: Copper mines in the UP of Michigan

in Photo-essay19 days ago

That is really cool! The Quincy was 1.75 miles deep when it ceased operation, Wikipedia a great! Do they still offer tours into the mine? You took some great pictures, I love the giant hunk of ore in front that's oxidized green from all of the copper.

On Wikipedia they had a picture of this hunk of native copper out of the mine, that would have been fun to have found!

I'd love to have that hunk of native copper!

That makes two of us!

This is the copper I brought home from the up many years ago. I stopped to buy some Jam from a woman that was selling it in her front yard at a roadside table and she had these on the table to sell also. She said her husband had found them in the creek.
