The Britannia Mines has played such a major role in the building blocks of British Columbia’s economic development and early history. Behind the unforgotten community that once flourished with 60,000 miners of different races and religions, lies a rich history that captures the hearts of many who pass by one of the most successful copper sites of its time. With that being said, the legend behind the discovery of affluent minerals in Britannia Mines is by a doctor who was searching for gold in the year, 1888. After many failed attempts to set up a mining industry, the Britannia Mine and Smelting Company Ltd. took interest in this discovery and developed operation systems and communities. The Britannia Mines in the 1920s became such a successful

Stratum 3 in the Blue Mountain site lacks any evidence of settlement or subsistence; on the other hand, this could be evidence that the people who were there were nomadic rather than sedentary. The 4,534 debitage pieces and 234 cores suggest that it was a hunter-gatherer society and they used local obsidian which means that they could have had no contact with other people and likely did not travel very far. The majority of their tools were also made from the outer part of the cores.

The Kalgoorlie Mine, also known as the Super Pit due to its distinctive depth of 600m ( Figure 1.), is a mine situated in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia that primarily extracts gold. Often considered to be the largest open-cut mine in the nation, Kalgoorlie produces a tremendous 22 000 kilograms of gold each year. The gold rush that struck Australia during 1851-1914 was primarily a result of the discovery of many mining sites like the Kalgoorlie gold mine. The finding of the Kalgoorlie mine by Paddy Hannan, Thoman Flanagan and Daniel Sheal attracted several thousands of other prospectors (mineral explorers) and created a “ rush” to whoever would quickly become prosperous from mining gold at Kalgoorlie. As such,

The history of the Morefield Mine is that it was first found in 1929 during world war 2. Before this mine was found it was a store with a gas station. Morefield Mine was first mined for amazonite, beryl, mica, and tantalite. The U.S Bureau took over the mine and made it 115ft deep and drove a drift 75ft at the 100ft level. They finally sold the mine to Sam and Sharon Dunaway in March of 1996. Sam and Sharon expanded the mine and lengthened it to 425ft on the 45 foot level and made it 135ft deep. Morefield Mine impacted humanity because it took 18 acres of land, but it is a great place to find minerals and

Salt of the Earth has a good claim to being one of the most controversial and notorious American movies of all time. Normally a film with such an infamous public reputation would be expected to have transgressed societal proprieties with regard to the use of sex and violence. However, that is not the case with this New Mexico set movie about a miners strike. Salt of the Earth was the film that suffered most at the hands of the McCarthyist witch hunts that were doing the rounds in early fifties America. Without wishing to condone the political attitudes of the time, it is to a degree understandable why this was the case as the film is one of the most impressive pieces of agit-prop drama imaginable.

Team Gemstone was a great experience for me. I thoroughly enjoy my time in the challenge/adventure course. First, we split off into our teams and completed different team building activities. My team, team WALK, completed the lava challenge. We were given eight wooden blocks and had to get our entire team to the opposite side with out touching the ground or leaving blocks unattended. Overall, we completed the challenge successfully and felt good about our teamwork experience. Next, we moved onto the ropes tower. Here, we had the option of climbing to the top of the tower while attached to a harness and rope. This was also a fun experience for me, and hopefully everyone else involved.

Within Ajax Minerals major changes were to come and with some changes come resistance to change. Ajax Minerals, who was operating at 100% was to fall to Pacific Rim company due to the same minerals that were sold to the United States for less than Ajax were selling. Senior leadership saw this threat and did not think anything of the competition. They did not bother to share this information with the company’s employees This was the first resistance to change within Ajax Minerals. Due to the resistance employees thought that Ajax was just continuing to give them a heavy workload with extra over time, not aware of layoffs and pay cuts to come.

Salt is a raw material that is located below the surface. The salt deposits are dissolved in the water and then the brine is pumped and converted into salt crystals. When the brine is being boiled the liquid evaporates which leaves salt crystals and then they are later dried. A process like this takes about six weeks and can produce up to 45 tons per hour. After taking out all the scale buildup, only 75 percent of that salt is produced. Then we move to the round can production, which has two parallel high-speed production lines. There are 12 workers for each line and they break off into 2 identical lines. Each line can produce 9600 cans per hour. Because the production process has common procedures, workers on the line perform low-skilled, repetitive tasks that can be operated by 18 workers. These cans are in a shape of a cylinder with a top and bottom. The top part has a plastic pour spout and the cylinder is made from 2 sheets of chipboard. There is a two-step process in cutting the tub and first we cut it into long sections and then they are cut into can-sized pieces. The two sheets are glued together, which keeps the moisture out. The cans are then filled with salt and the pour spout is put in. The cans are then placed in pallets and shipped.
