and hard rock mining. what you're bringing out of the mine is an enormous quantity of which in with there are smallments of gold. again at first little groups of fellows tried it. but bit by bit they were edged out by the people who got enough capitol to do it on a large scale. this is what the big mines looked like by 1860s and 70s. by then the technology of photographer ri was good enough. start nd the 1830s and getting better. we have good pictures of what it looked like. so again 49ers become mine laborers. here's what happens inside a gold a working gold hard rock gold mine. you usually have teams of two working at a technique called double jacking. this is where one guy is holding a chisel against the rock face and another is hitting it with a sledge hammer. high degree of trust among friends. turn it slightly hit it again. turn it slightly to dislodge the gravel. and over the course of an hour of hard hammering, you have cut a hole maybe this deep. if you can imagine working against a rock face whic

here's what happens inside a working hard rock gold mine. you usually have teams of two working at a technique called double jacking. this is where one guy's holding a chisel against the rock face, and the other one's hitting it with a sledgehammer, it means a very high degree of trust among friends, one hits it with a sledgehammer, and the other holds the drill and turns it slightly. and you're working against a rock face, you cut one there, one there, and so on all the way around, then fill them with gunpowd gunpowder, lead fuses to each one of them, light the fuses, retire to a safe distance and then let them explode. and if you have done it right, if the holes are this deep, an arc of explosions will dislodge the rock in that arc and when the dust and smoke clears, you bring up the hard rock and repeat the process again, it's incredibly dangerous work, i think maybe right up to the present, being a miner is the job in which you're most likely to be killed at work. you can imagine that the roof can cave in, you can get caught by charges w

the history begins when the iron mountain mine, which was mine for gold and silver, was discovered to have copper. it was purchased by capitalists from the united kingdom and they proceeded to develop the mine. so, within the span of a year or two, after that it became the theest mining operation in state. smelting on site began in 1896 and the biggest thing that is remarkable about the order in iron mountain, it is comprised of 42% sulfur, approximately. sulfur has a very bad effect on plant life. so, the or at iron mountain was so sulfurous they had to process it.efore they smelted this was known as open air roasting. they would take the copper ore piles.e it in massive it would be on top of cords of wood and be ignited and burn for about two months. townted that visited the ck -- keswick as having the smell of a match lit under your nose all the time. started receiving complaints as early as 1897. it was too late at this point, because the smelter had become so huge that people were loathe to shut it down. the various farmers and filed lawsuits to shut it down and they didn't have
