Abstract
A man stands in front of an explosives magazine at the Susquehanna Mine. The magazine's door is open and a sign above reads, "No Smoking Explosives." The Susquehanna Mine is an open pit iron mine in the Mesabi Range, St. Louis County, Minnesota. The Mine began as underground workings, shipping ore in the early 1900s, and expanded into open pit operations. The Mine was operated by the Republic Steel Corporation from the 1930s into the 1950s.
