| Thumbnail | Description & Credit | ![]() | Rock-handling Process (1908). Measured drawing delineated by Richard K. Anderson, Jr., 1978. (Reproduction Number: HAER, MI-2, sheet 18 of 34) Like many copper-mining operations on Michigan's Upper Peninsula, the Quincy Mining Company depended on complex processes such as the one illustrated in this HAER drawing to handle the copper and rock blasted from mines. At the company's No. 2 mine, the Shaft-Rockhouse separated the copper and rock mechanically into three distinct groups: "mass" copper (pure ore), poor rock containing little or no copper ore, and ore-rich rock and chunks larger than twenty inches. Once separated, the mass copper was shipped directly to smelters via the Great Lakes, the poor rock was crushed for use in road construction, and the material in the third group was crushed before shipment to smelters.Credit: Library of Congress. |
