Abstract
A man stands in the snow beside an explosives storage magazine at the Copper Range Mine. The magazine building has a round roof and stone sides. This is probably the Copper Range Mine (White Pine mine) and mill near White Pine, Ontonogan County Michigan. The Mine was operated by the Copper Range Company until its closure in 1995. A plan to continue operations by solution mining was rejected because of environmental concerns. The Mine was refitted to grow biopharmaceuticals in 2000.
