Hardscrabble Presentation About Van Dyke Mine


The subject of Wednesday's Miami Hardscrabble program is the Van Dyke Copper Mine.

Geologist Tim Marsh will talk about the copper deposit  underneath Miami and the history that led to the discovery of that deposit in 1916. He will describe the efforts that have been made since then to recover the 1.3 billion pounds of copper that are believed to be there.

The presentation  begins at 6:30pm at Bullion Plaza Museum and Cultural Center.
