The magazine building has stone walls and a peaked roof. A sign in front of the building reads, "Explosives Keep Out." 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.Rights management statement available at: http://library.mines.edu/digital/rights.htmlCopper Range CompanyCopper mines and miningExplosivesScenes, snowUnderground miningStillImage
