Abstract
The image shows a group of men on a platform with the American flag and the Sentinels of Safety trophy at the presentation ceremony for the Sentinels of Safety Award to the Newmont Mine. The Sentinels of Safety Award was established in 1925 to recognize outstanding safety records and promote safety in mining. Mine operations receive a bronze trophy depicting a woman holding a child. The Newport Mine in the Gogebic district near Ironwood, Michigan began operations in 1884. The mine was operated by the Newport Mining Company, then eventually by Pickands, Mather & Company.
