Abstract
Stripping operations at the Fay open pit iron mine are shown, with a dragline in the background. The pit is partially obscurred by snow. The Fay Mine near Ironton, Minnesota was operated by the M. A. Hanna Company. The M. A. Hanna Company was one of the large mining companies that moved into the Great Lakes iron area in the early 1900s, consolidated smaller properties, and engaged in exploration for other economic deposits. The Company was dissolved in 1965, then resurrected in 1985.
