Well i had a great trip this last saturday and saw some neat stuff. however i have some questions about a mine just west of palo alto, it is on Dalados picture albums . The mine has lots of AMD coming out of it, and there is a pump there that looks like it pumps it into a truck loading station. Why do they load it onto tank trucks? Also what is the history of this mine and who owned it?

which one exactly, can you post a pic? also, glad you had a good trip. sorry we couldnt be more of a help for that area you nosed around in. fire up some pics of what you saw if you will........

ive had trouble uploading in the past i just cant make it work.... it works on abandoned mines becasue i can take it from windows but i have trouble here with the whole adding the web adress. .. if i cant get them here ill link it to another website though

the pump is there because they are working that bank and are using the water for dust control as far as i understand. Don't know anything else about it though

so they are strip mining up above the old mine entrance? and are there any remins further up from where the pump is?

That mine was part of the Salem if I'm not mistaken.
